it's been a month now since we moved in to our new place. from a condo life we are now experiencing how it's like to be in an apartment. although condo life was kinda good (i really love the place because it's very accessible), monthly dues got more expensive. it was for this reason that we decided to look for a new place.

our new place is quite a challenge for us in terms of the distance and time we need to travel to and from work. on the other hand, the apartment looks pretty cute. it has 2 rooms, 2 bathrooms.  it's also newly constructed apartment so we are actually the first tenants of it. here's a peek on my new haven..

we now have a bigger living room.. meaning we can now bring in additional friends. problem is, we still haven't purchased a sala set..so right now, its japanese style seating or, we make use of those small stools which perfectly fits kuya dyllan and princess dynnelle. (hopefully, we'd be able to have our couches before the year ends.. hehe.. :)

here's the staircase going to the second floor.. looks pretty cute, but i also realized this thing only meant more areas for cleaning.. lucky me, i am not in charge of keeping it dirt-free.. :) another thing, having this is also good exercise for me.. although i must admit, when i'm still to sleepy in the morning, i sometimes wish a studio type was way better..

wind beneath my wings :)

we have a small kitchen too. i actually like the cabinets. not so perfect but it will suffice.. :) we got really excited when my youngest sister brought us a fridge (which we did not have in the condo). now i can cook my favorite tuna setti and prepare my tuna spread.. 


here's our laundry area. it's  a lot bigger than the one we had in the condo. i was actually so happy that my sister's boyfriend prepared a sampayan for us. gee... i think that's the one thing i thank heaven for.. that is, giving my sisters wonderful partners..:)



we have two comfort rooms.. it's kinda small though but we're really glad the place got two of this.

here's also a peak of our bedrooms.  i really love that i now have a room (and it's colored yellow-green). i also love the built-in cabinets. view outside the windows are not as magnificent as that of cityland too.. outside my window is no longer the sight of my #manilamoon.. oh well, i'm starting to get use to it. besides, i know too well the picture of my moon, even

heart says, NO TO DUST PLS

with my eyes closed.

i miss cityland already. i miss the good morning and good evening greetings of the security guards.  i miss 7-11 and its crew. i miss st. francis church. i miss the elevator. i miss the swimming pool. i just miss everything...

but then, i believe this new place will bring me good memories too.  i think i better start gathering happy memories now..

this entry.'s actually more than a month old already.  i guess august was just a sad month for me (and will run true as long as i'm alive).. nonetheless, i remain hopeful that some things can change.. in the meantime, here's another sad old entry.

----------

it is still hard to imagine that i am leaving this place.  this has been a home for me for a year and although it's far different from my true home, this place became a refuge for me.  this room has been a source of comfort in many moments of solitude and pain.  the bathroom has been a sole witness to my hidden tears of longing and sorrow.  and this view of the city especially at night has granted me the blessing to learn to embrace and love my new moon.  artificial as it may be, that blue&red light became a real comfort to my deepest sighs and questions.  somehow, in one way or another, it had its own way of bringing me closer to people and places i truly miss.

one year, sometimes i feel that it came on too fast.  at other times, i also feel that it had been long enough to still keep me holding to some crossroads i chose.

i don't know, maybe deep sighs will have to remain the same. and  i guess, some things are meant to really stay a little longer (if not forever that is)..

for now, i know i have a couple of things that i'll surely miss about this place..

and on this same day, you let go of me for the nth time..
