This trip is not actually a vacation. It seems like a grand holiday but I actually have two meetings, one in London, and one in Zurich. Despite an extremely busy schedule and a very tight calendar, isiningit itong trip na ito. kakapagod pero eto byahe pa rin. After I got injured a few minutes before going to the airport, I thought of not going anymore, but this trip has been set, and most especially the ZURICH meeting. With puffy eyes, I went ahead, my husband bringing me to the airport. He massaged my shoulders pa before I entered terminal 2. Etong asawa ko merong green thumb sa halaman lang, pero hindi pwedeng masahista kasi madudurog ang buto ko. Kahit wala akong bali, sa bigat ng kamay parang malalagas na ang buto ko walang tender loving touch. He wanted to bring me inside but he was wearing slippers. I needed the help of a porter to carry my two luggages. I felt exhausted from crying that for the first time in my life, I did not eat anything at the lounge. I had no appetite and the irresistible lugaw failed to lure me into eating. I just sat down in the lounge feeling so sad and drained. Parang gusto ko ulit maiyak so I went to the toilet and shed some tears. Lagi akong dapain, kakainis. Para akong bata na iiyak iyak kasi nadulas.
I gave my son a call just before I boarded the plane. Natutuwa ako sa anak ko kasi pagkausap ko, excited rin sya magkwento about his day. His sister is there with him, visiting him, namimiss rin yung kapatid. She dropped everything she was doing to spend a week with her brother, bonding sila. Ipapasyal yung kapatid kasi merong one week school break.
