Few months ago, my father got a job in Jubail. I was so confused of what was happening, but instead, I just go with the flow and remove any thoughts about it out of my mind. I thought, that it would be great if I'll just keep it a secret. On April (or May), my mother told me that we might migrate to another city here in Saudi, it is Dammam (which is 4 hours travel from Riyadh). I wondered why in Dammam.. Why not in Jubail? I didn't really want to talk about it so I didn't asked her why. Honestly, I don't want to leave this place. This place is full of wonderful memories. My mom and I had a lot of arguments about it, because of my immaturity.. I wasn't able to control myself. When we had a placid conversation about it, I understood that it is for the sake of our future, for us to have a better life. We have to stick together, because we are a family. Anyway, why in Dammam? Because it is not far from Jubail. Jubail does not have a Philippine school, and Dammam has.
Dear Perseus and Polaris of batch 2013-2014; Swangets,
Dahil tinatamad ako mag English, edi mag tatagalog ako. Super thankful ako na kabatch ko kayo, di man kayo kasing cool ng iba. Para sa'ken, awesome kayo. Napaka dami ng memories naten together. Hinding hindi ko 'yun kakalimutan, promise. Hindi ko rin kayo pagpapalit. Napaka importante niyo sa'ken. Ilang taon ko na rin kayo nakasama, kahit na nakakasawa na pagmumukha niyo, okay lang. Ang mahalaga, nakakasama ko kayo. Ngayon, aalis muna ako. Sandali lang 'to, magkikita pa naman tayo eh. Masakit lang na di tayo sabay sabay mag-gagraduate. Okay lang yun, basta, makakagraduate tayo. Uh-huh. Aattend ako ng graduation niyo. Magchicheer ako sainyo habang kumakanta kayo sa stage o kaya kinukuha niyo na mga diploma niyo. Kahit maubos na boses, ays lang. Haha! Perseus, pakabait kayo ha. Ingatan niyo si Ma'am Nez baka araw-araw na yung "I was scolded again..". Mga opesers, wag masyadong highblood ha. Tandaan palagi na "Napagdaanan din natin yan", huwag na huwag niyo yun kakalimutan. Okay? Basta, I love you all soo much. Polaris, ano ba masasabi ko sainyo? Pakabait din kayo, pasaway pa naman kayo. Di man kayo kagwapuhan, wag kayo mag-alala.. balang araw gagwapo din kayo. Basta, kayo pa rin mga bros ko. Yung iba na di ko masyadong kaclose, bro ko parin kayo. Bro ko kayong lahat. Period. Port yer! Walang limutan. Basta ako, di ko kayo kakalimutan, promise yan. I love you all. See you soon! <3
'Til we meet again, Riyadh!
