[ This serves as my September entry ]
Some person I knew chatted me online a about 2 weeks ago and said that she was leaving the country in a couple of weeks. She was probably surprised that I wasn't sad at all. In fact I was quite happy. I was telling stuff like "don't ever come back" as if I was permanently sending her off. (Well, that was actually the case).
I just hate it when people are itching to leave this country, and when they finally do, they are feeling sad when there are people who are happy that they're leaving. I mean.. what's up with that? I don't see the point in peddling for sentiments of people to miss you, let alone wanting to be around.
They should really be just plain thankful for being fortunate as to experience opportunities like those. I know a whole lot of people who would almost give anything just to leave.
And don't get me started about sentiments on staying in touch. At some point in your life, you will lose touch with the people who are around you (the ones who live in the same country as you).
I don't mean to be cold. It's just that..
People should really just learn to live with the consequences of their actions.
It's either that or.. leaving life in the Philippines has become so much of a norm that I could care less for people who say they love they country then leave it.

So where's your October entry? :P
Filipinos aren't used to be sent away, I guess. Hehe. And they still stick to the "I'll always be there" lie. Teehee.
Btw, can you please update my link to www.iamneri.com? Thanks in advance! :)
