i am back

okay, so in case there is still somebody out there who doesn't know -- i am back in manila! yes, i am back in humid, hot, polluted and raining manila, and it doesn't get better than that. i miss the cold oslo weather but really, there is no place like home. and i'd gladly stay here for one more year, just for that. ;) so, a lot of things happened in my real life while i was away. things that i can ignore while i was on the other side of the world. i was afraid to come back to manila and have to deal with these changes, but thankfully, things are rushing in gradually. i think i can deal with it now. anyway, it's only been last week that i was in Madrid and Oslo, but now it seems so long ago. a lot of things happened on my first week back, and i'm really happy about that. i haven't recovered from the trip though. i haven't unpacked yet and i haven't been able to meet up with everyone i wanted to see. and i seriously need to do laundry and clean my apartment before guests can come in. but well, i'm back and it looks like i'll be staying for a while, so there's time for that. but if you guys are free to meet up, let me know. i'd love to see you all again. :)
