Please let this week be a productive one.
I haven’t been doing much lately. Most of the time I stay at home, watching tv and eating chips. It’s actually really funny, because when we ask our parents where we’re gonna go for that day, they tell us, “oh we’re gonna go to Costco today” or, “oh we’re gonna buy some stuff in the pharmacy then eat lunch then go home”. That’s it. So after a few hours of finally being able to go out, we have to go back home. It’s even funnier because when my mom tells us she’s going to the pharmacy, we all wanna go with her! That’s how desperate we are to get out - or at least that’s how desperate I am.
I do get to go out sometimes - to watch a movie, to have dinner with family friends, etc. But I really miss my life in the Philippines. Back there, I would go to school at 7:30am and come home at 7pm after CADs training. Then I unwind, eat some dinner, do my homework, watch TV or chat, then sleep. Its routinary, I know, but it was still fun. I enjoyed college so much because I got to be really spontaneous with my friends. I liked being busy. I loved having a full schedule all the time. If I’m anywhere but home, I never get tired. And every summer, I still get to go to the beach and see my friends almost everyday! But here, I don’t get to do that very often.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not depressed or anything. I’m actually enjoying life here, I just wish there was more to it. I wanna get a job so I have money. I wanna get a car and a license so I can go anywhere. I wanna find out where I’m gonna go to school next fall so I actually have a life to look forward to! But for now, I guess I’ll be stuck here for quite a while. Help!
