Will Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 Congrats, Scott. We found out yesterday our date of departure has been moved up significantly. So, the stress level has shot up accordingly and there is lots o' yellin' going on around our house. We should be on a plane before the end of this month! I better give those "things to do" posts a second perusing. =0 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 The day has finally arrived!!! Tommarrow we fliy from LAX to begin our new life in the Philippines. On my next post i can proudly identify myself as an EXPAT!!!!! :cheersty: Can we call you Mr Expat? :) Wish I was you and feeling what you are now. Anyone else ever remember their feelings just before flying off to a new life? My first vivid memory coming back to PI was the moment I stepped off the air conditioned plane. It was like stepping into an oven with people everywhere, like nuts to butts.....he, he. As a Filipino, all my senses was on high alert, especially my nose, smelling the early morning bakery goodies and the strong pungent odor of strange spices and dead fish in various levels of decay. Scott being a formal US Army soldier can and will adjust to his new environment. As far as all the eye candy (especially in the Mall of Asia), it's definitely a target enrich environment...he, he. Yeah, they got you scoped out too and your temptation will be tested -- Jake 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
