Back to Blogging
Wow, this feels a bit alien to me already.. I haven't blogged since June and now, I'm not even sure where to begin.
I can just go and post only the recent happenings and events, but then that would be a waste of my photo-taking efforts..
To summarize, below are the more important events that happened from June 18 to today - Aug 7,2012:
1. I resigned from my job as an Assistant Account Manager of Deutsche Bank effective June 29,2012 (sniff. goodbye *confidence-boosting job!)
2. I stayed in Singapore a few days more before I left the country for good. In those short days, I was a tourist once again and did what tourists would do.
3. I got back to Manila and crammed on my wedding preps. Up till this day, I still can't figure out how I was able to complete the wedding plans. Surprisingly, the wedding went well too!
4. I got married on July 22nd. It was a 3pm wedding. A super rainy one too. They say rain on your wedding day is lucky, so we tried not to complain...but oh, it drove my guests away.
5. We stayed in Manila for 3 full days after the wedding, because there's such a thing as bride-going-back-home-on-the-third-day-ritual. I didn't go back on the third day though. Instead, we had a family dinner on Tuesday, my 31st birthday.
6. On Thursday, July 26, we flew to Davao. My new hometown.
7 onwards.. I just ate, followed my husband to the office, stayed home, ate, ate, ate.
Oh! I wake up pretty early nowadays too. Around 7:15-7:45, even without alarm.
(Today, I woke up at 1am, and I honestly thought it was already morning.)
And Oh! I also eat durians. The fresh ones. Seeds after seeds of durian. Mmm.
* It's a confidence-boosting job when facing other people (ie friends, family, ex-colleagues) , but it can also be a self-esteem 'destroyer' because for me, there were times (lots of em) when I felt like I didn't know anything. I didn't understand the complexity of some investment products, and therefore I felt like I'm such a fraud. Being in a bank and knowing just the basics.
