Today is the 3rd of December which means I have officially completed one full month of working in Layang-Layang Island. In 5 days time I’ll be expecting a flight to take me back to the main land. The MAIN LAND, the land of ‘civilization’, the one that will promise lots of sleeping in since I won’t be doing any more work until I decide when or when the bank needs to be replenish. The land that will provide a faster internet connection for my illegal downloading.
The island environment is definitely going to missed for a while, the freshness of the morning breeze, the warmth of the MamaSun, the unexpected rain, lots of rain, calm sea, rough sea. There are lots of great thing here to be honest. And of course there will be no more running on the runway alone.
Somehow the thought of staying on the main land for at least 3 months before going back to Layang-Layang with no steady source of income worries me a bit. Well for the whole December I may not even remember that I won’t be expecting any salary by year end. It is that particular month where everyone decides to have fun anyway. Most probably I will want to consider January to sell some of my dive equipment for a cheap price if I’m totally broke.
I somehow regret that I couldn’t attend my cousin’s wedding party on the 5th of December. I was thankful to have Layang-Layang as an excuse not to be in the interrogation sessions with all the uncles and aunties who would be happy to do it. But things are better anyway since it’s the mighty December, the best month of all, where most of my family members are going to be around together. There are going to be a lot of catching up to do. I’m seeing loads of hangovers here guys.
I wish I could write longer but the connection here is really slow right now and it is such a pain to wait each time I clicked on a new tab. And I can hear Mr. Sandman calling me to join his conference about how to just sit down and dream of money falling from the sky.
That’s it for this time and please visit again if you want to read my ramblings on just about anything. See ya.
