Charmos! Isa na gyud ka bulan mi dinhi sa bugnaw nga lugar nga gipangalan-an nga Surrey, British Columbia, Canada.
Again, charmos!
Grabe! What a first month it has been! Am currently enjoying a full-time job (40 hrs/wk) here as an Office Assistant in a Dental Laboratory. Pays good considering I've never had work experience (Minimum wage in BC is $6-8 for no work experience).
Ang sad lang siguro kay si Mama. She wants to practice her profession here but she can't - no Canadian work experience kasi. And I guess it's really hard for her, unlike us, to have settled her mindset that she shouldn't equal Canada to Philippines. We don't have the same privileges here as we do back home. Did I mention that she hates the idea of falling into the housewife role? Which she's in...
But I've come to think of the 2-Bedroom part of the Main floor of the house... still having a hard time to properly describe where we're renting... as home.
Ah well, the days are still longer here (The sun's out till 10 pm). And you won't believe the heat (iniisip ko na nasa Pinas ako... minus the humdidity, yay!). But everything's good. We're eating 3 times a day.
So hope you're all doing fine as well, if not better. Charmos kaayo! Senior year na gyud ang gina-istoryahan nato! Go!
INGATZ!
