I finally watched the Fellowship of the Ring last night, and I found it quite entertaining. I was kinda annoyed because I already read the book so the element of surprise has diminished, but all in all it was a pretty cool movie. I won't elaborate on that because I'm sure the people are all sick and tired of reading about the Hobbits and the Elves. So that was my evening nothing exciting but it's the lastest (11 pm) I've been out since God knows when, I'm getting old I'm telling ya. I guess I'm just reserving my energy, because I have a feeling that when I go back to the PI sleep would be a luxury, so until then I'll just be a hermit and lock myself in my apartment

My mom left last Friday and things are slowly returning back to normal. My apartment is quiet now, and I'm once again alone. We had a pretty good time, we were able to go up to New York and see old friends. I did not cry at all it was not what I expected it to be, I was okay with her leaving me, I got used to being alone. I'm a thousand miles away from my family, it's been almost two years since I left the Philippines and in less than a month I'm going home. I'm finally going home and it's such a wonderful feeling to be able to finally say that.
