there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

congratulations to myself.

before you say anything else, i want you to know how melodramatic this sounds like. i passed the evaluatoin period, and that means i’ll be staying here in singapore for a good few years. actually, i’ve known it just 2 weeks after i started but i guess i’ll wait until i’m a month old before shouting it to the world to be sure. and yes, it has been a month already since going back to office work and IT, time flies really. when my boss called me in his office that day, i thought he would ask me about my resource-greedy and hanging cics program, but instead he was holding a green evaluation folder with my name boldly written on it, and my title contract programmer. he quickly said that i passed, and asked if i’m happy with my work. it was a very brief moment. i walked back to my desk with an uncontrollable grin on my face. i never plan to be emotional ’cause i realize that would be a bit embarrassing, but my eyes instantly started to get heavy, and i was constantly using my hankerchief to prevent tears from rolling down. i can’t possibly explain the feeling, but perhaps i was just so overwhelmed because for the longest time, finally, i got something i half-expected.

I’ve only spent a short amount of time in Manila but I must admit that it’s a wonderful land. But anyway, I just wanted to stop by because I’m looking for blogs about the Philippines and found your blog through google. If you can share any tips on things I must do when in Manila then I would really love to hear them. Make the most of Holy Week!
