December 28 Manila, something funny on day 1Something funny with the sense of direction of Manila people. Within 15 min walk area, everyone has twisted map in the head. The taxi driver and I took 30 min on the same street to look for my hotel, Malate penssionne. Looking at the increasing number in taxi meter, I didn't want to jump off the taxi to walk with my luggage, tho it's not big. It finally came to my mind that I had the notes from internet, it says that the hotel is next to a Starbucks....it's how we find it, wierd.
After checking in, time for dinner. I recalled that Robbinson's is not too far, we passed it when we tried to dig the hotel out. But I need some help to make sure the direction is correct. Unfortunately, 3 people I checked at the hotel reception gave me 3 different direction, including an enthusiastic boy walking out with me to show me the way in the street. My instinct alarmed noisily not being misled by this innocent face. Ha! Go straight down the street and turn right, not turn left immediately! December 26 happiness - BoracayOf course I deserve a good life. 3 days has passed, smiles still pop. Sinking in the paradise for a week, it all comes back to me how much I should cherish in life. Swimming in light blue water, lying on the white sand, warm smiles, relaxing time at the bar, drunk giggles and being hold gently in those dreams. Well, I've forgotten them too long. They are now slowly coming back. I sware to put my every effort to come closer to my desire. I am not afraid of losing, just can't help crying for how little time left. Go for it, Diane!! |
