SpaGeZ Posted August 6, 2004 Share Posted August 6, 2004 considering the politics, economy and poverty line in the country siguro i'd really opt to move out. Para kasing hopeless the bansa. From the top hangang sa baba.Ang downside lang nito ay i would be leaving the things the nakagisnan ko na, tulad ng traffic sa EDSA, rally sa ORtigas, bagoong, tuyo away ng mga TV networks, nonsense sa congress at senado...dugh. Sa ibang bansa naman, katkot-takot na adjustment sa bagong cultura at ugali ng mga tao. hayyy...ano ba tlaga kuya? Bottom line...i'd prefer to adjust drastically and face bigger hope than face hopelessness. Quote Link to comment

Huddaf Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 I would definitely love to visit other places and work there but this will always be home. Here, I will always retire. Quote Link to comment
tambolero Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 Pinas pa din' kahit mahirap dito .... iba pag sariling bansa' Quote Link to comment
Guest event_horizon Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 kung up to work lang, i prefer abroad.. but if you talk about retirement, gusto ko pa din sa pinas... pero depende na lang kung ano na state ng pinas by then... Quote Link to comment
Grimace Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 I got stationed here by chance..i really have no idea what i was doing here!! but anyway abroad is abso-bloodylutely wonderful..meet new people..you forget about home, you adapt culture and understand people in a higher perspective..but seriously..you don't wanna rot here all your life,i know how it feels working here..i can't wait going out really soon..the only consolation is you getta have to taste the goodlife without even worrying your pocket...coz there is always work, you can still wash some dishes and waitressing and earn $400 dollars a week and you can still party..noone cares if you're some garbage man or something, no discrimination unlike here...so anyway take my advice..leave for FIJI!

swalowswithart Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 I would love to visit and probably migrate to other countries especially somewhere in Europe. I love the fast-paced life and consider myself a wanderer of some sort. I get highly excited in seeing other places & meeting new people, learning and adapting to their culture. Been to some parts of Asia and I definitely want to see more! That's been my long time dream, to travel around the world! I easily get bored & from time to time i have this feeling na parang ang liit ng mundo ko when im here in the Philippines. Sadly, there's not much to do here, there's not much to learn and people here are mostly conventional. I love new things, I despise the ordinary & i absolutely hate monotonous things! Knowing my personality, the logical choice would be to leave the country and stay somewhere else. Quote Link to comment
♀~§assy§pirit~♀ Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 we all have different situations in life eh.. so well, i'd really love to give it a try.. out of the PI, i mean.. this country, though i love SOME of the people, well the other SOME have been such a pain.. and everyday of my life, they just don't know how much every little thing reminds me of them.. bitterness?? yeah whatever.. at least i just wanna lessen those "little" things that remind me of THEM... this country has already held too much memories for me.. i wanna be able to forget.. though forgetting is impossible coz there will always be instances that i will still remember them, well at least, i've lessen the probability to come across THEM.. and if i shall fail out of PI, then i'll come back.. and proudly say, "at least i tried.." and try not to regret every single effort of it Quote Link to comment
