Xmas in Narvacan, Ilocos Sur

Back from Narvacan!  It was great and overwhelming at times.
Boring and irritating at others.  
I'm a city girl at heart,
but I'm happy I went and looking forward to visiting in the future.

I should process and deconstruct this experience... but not now.

For Xmas I got a keychain and over 30 random bug bites.

Check out the pics.
Pictures from Xmas in the province!

I totally procrastinated an hours worth of work by downloading these pictures, so you better enjoy them.  
And I better get off Facebook and start working.
Back to the grind!

Four Months.

How time flies by.
How things change.

My project has completely changed
I can't really define what I'm doing
I'm in crisis sometimes
afraid a lot of the time
torn and trying to move forward without one single example
trying to re/invent, re/define myself
all of the time

I'm the most unstable I've ever felt in my life
questioning fundamentals in myself that once i
took for granted....

And it's pure joy.

I am so happy.
I feel open now - open to
learning and healing
taking risks and being strong
loving myself as best as I can

Look at that. Looks like self-love.

I'm incredibly happy and can't imagine being anywhere else.
I'm busy and have made some fantastic friends.
It's beautiful here, and I feel like time is going so fast. Too fast sometimes. Though I know it's probably going at just the right pace.

Look at that. Looks like patience.

I'm about to embark on a HUGE project. Waiting for some green lights - then I'll be sure to write about it come next year. It's fucking scary and huge and I'm so afraid and excited and I don't know how it will turn out. But I'm jumping in.

Look at that. Looks like risk. Looks like self-confidence.

How time flies, how things change.

I'm off north to Ilocos Sur to visit family in Narvacan and Vigan for Christmas! Leaving tomorrow, and will be gone for a week, Dec. 21-27. I'll be back in Manila for New Year's.
Sorry I haven't written in three months. You know, life. Enjoy the pictures - they're of "The Silent Soprano" the show I assistant directed, and of my trip to Baguio with my cousin and niece.

Enjoy and MALIGAYANG PASKO!
