Ah, Facebook reminded me today that one year ago I was saying my final goodbyes in Korea.
I honestly haven’t missed my working life much, but the people, yeah that’s what mattered. I’m looking forward to reconnecting with the old team in three weeks.
Meanwhile, my Philippines life continues on in the usual manner.
Oh, yesterday I also finalized my upcoming trail that I Hare on the 20th. It’s just a bit over 6 KM and that’s about right I think. I thought it was a pretty nice hike, two moderate uphills and a semi-steep descent. Everything in between was pretty easy and rather scenic. I’ve got an additional 3 KM I’ll incorporate for the runners, but that’s all streets. Fuck ’em.
And oh yeah, I won’t be hosting the “on-home” on the 13th. I offered but the powers that be decided to keep it at the Grandmaster’s bar (Hot Zone). The downside is our Filipina Hashers won’t be permitted to drink alcohol because it’s election day. Oh well. I’ll invite them over to my place for some beer when the Hash is done.
Now it’s time for me to head out for dart league.
I loved you all the summer through
I thought I’d found my dream in you
For me you were the one
But that was yesterday and yesterday’s gone
We walked together hand in hand
‘cross miles and miles of golden sand
But now it’s over and done
’cause that was yesterday and yesterday’s gone
So you’re pretty close to the one-year mark for your time in the Philippines. Congratulations on that.
As for your post’s title… I was sure you were going to be quoting Neil Diamond’s “Love on the Rocks.”
Yesterday’s gone…
and now all I want is a smile.
I’m saving “Love on the Rocks” for the story of my life…
