    Will always miss Pinas and will retire in Pinas someday.
    But then I'm flexible, as long as I can work and save and visit Pinas that will be OK!

    Happy having lovely and real supportive in-laws. They're always there They understands how I wish to go home too and support me if I want to go home.

    UK is lovely, breath taking country side I must say!
    Good government spoiling lazy citizens

    On my first year I was shy to speak english. Worried because others may poorly judge my bad english lol. I have phobia in speaking english!
    I was poorly judged by a filipina and a thai that time. I remember.
    But I am proud now, I speak chinese if I can't speak english

    I would also like to ask, did any Pinay find support amongst other Pinays?

    What helped the "settling in" process?
    I always helped Pinays, I don't expect anything in return. Some Pinay here are really mean. Their feet are always above the ground.
    But met nice members too.

    Too hard to find true friends overseas.
    I will always cherish my old friends!
    Childhood friends, classmates, and some I've got from Taiwan. They are like old wine
    They knew me a lot, almost everything, and they still LOVE me.

    I dumped pinay friends if they are so mean. You're right Wheelah!

    Very good attitude Your adaptable.



    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.
