Five Weeks

I should've known better than to be melodramatic again on here kasi palaging the opposite happens. I went out of my way to drive to work today to speak to my boss face-to-face. I got my 5-week vacation request without even batting an eyelash. In fact, she was even relieved to find out the reason for my visit to her office. She initially thought I was quitting by how I approached her (you know the sad puppy eyes look). Quit the only job I have right now?! Never!

Anyway, I got the 5 weeks, but, do I even want the 5 weeks now? Yes, my mom's words penetrate my conscience all the time without mercy. Kainis! She even promised an all-expense paid trip to Europe in the spring if I don't go to the Philippines. Ugh! Bribery at its finest! But on the other hand, this won't be a backpacking trip plus kasama pa si mommy dearest. It can't be THAT fun compared to the Christmas in the Philippines, di ba? But certainly, a trip to the Philippines isn't helping me with my "around the world" goal. But then again, that's frequent flier miles right there. Ay nako, another day, another thing to stress about! Tomorrow is my final decision. Abangan ang susunod na kabanata...
