Counting the Days

I’ve been on my tamad mode lately. Maybe, it has something to with the weather that I just want to do nothing and lie down on my bed all day. The days had been rapidly getting shorter and the nights longer and cooler. Things in the office had somehow slowed down a bit that I still can afford to do my latest thing: literally counting the days towards my homecoming.

It’s just less than a month to go and I will board the plane and fly off to Manila. Thinking about it sends shivering feeling in my spine. That’s how excited I am!!! I just can’t wait when I can finally get my hands on even the last parts of organizing our BIG DAY.

Good thing that one heavy burden was eased off my shoulder just before going home. I took my Driving Theory Test last week and thank God, I passed it. I really prepared hard for that exam since I heard from Filipino friends out here that one should really study as it won’t come easy if you are not familiar or doesn’t know what to expect. I just can’t imagine having my holidays back home and still think and study for that exam. At least, it’ll just be practical exam that I’ll take care when I come back in January.

Surely, I am having my bouts with loneliness now that my parents have gone back home. But God is good; He is keeping me occupied for the whole month that I’ll be on my own again. I have a scheduled trip somewhere (and alas! colder!!!) next week and will be away for a number of days. And this, too, is something that is adding to my excitement.

I am just overly excited. I hope things will turn out perfectly and by the way…I just looked up my calendar and it’s just 23 days before I go home. Hehe!!!
