Finally, my big move to Australia is finalized I pass my medical exam and got my 2 years working visa. It is very hard for me leaving UK bec this country made my dreams come true in terms of much better life. For the past 6 years living and working here in UK I must say everything is just amazing (except for my lovelife lol). I adopt the culture already I learned so many things in life its really really hard living in a place that you don't know anybody at all specially no family and friends to run to but bec of this difficulties I experienced it made me a better and strong person. I must say I owe it a lot to this country.
All my bags are packed and ready to go lol last sunday all my belongings etc has been collected to send to Phils (balikbayan boxes) and this coming weekend my friends and colleagues at work will have a farewell program for me for just 15 mins and thinking about it makes me cry already and makes me really sad I miss them all that's for sure.
I am flying to Phils on Tuesday and I can't wait to see my family too and the hustle and bustle in Phils. I will be staying there for almost 6 weeks. I am very excited too bec its nice to celebrate Christmas and New year with my family around nothing beats festive season in Phils ofcourse. I am going to spend a lot of time with my family while I am there coz havent seen them for 3 years now and some friends too. Going to some places there as well with my parents like Boracay, Cebu then Bohol. I would like to bring them in Hongkong but my mother has no passport its a lot of hassle for her to get one so may be next time.
So, 2010 for me will be another chapter of my life and another adjustment in terms of place, working enviroment and meeting new people. I am not worried now as I use to be I learned to take things as it is and make my way out of it. I am going to start my job in Australia 01 Feb 2010 but I am going there 2 weeks early to organize my place I am going to stay and make myself a bit familiar the way of life there. Finding location of banks, bus/train stations, shops and malls lol. I am hoping I can open an account easily there using HSBC as I am with them for the 5 years here in UK or living in UK might be an advantage for me lol. Good thing is, its summer there that time of the year I think?
So, there you go I am very excited with my new life again, another new year to look forward and new beginnings for me. And hopefully I can find my prince charming there. Anyway, I won't be leaving the forum I will post as soon as I can when I arrive in Australia to let you know all how things go for me.
Australia here I come!!!
