it has been a crazy week for me both at work & at home. my 2 aunts & several of my cousins arrived from the province the other day here because my cousin ellabelle will be having her pharmacy internship in cainta. looking for a house for her & her friend to stay was quite a challenge. it was their first time to be away from their respective families & ellabelle being the only girl is of course very much doted upon so everything must be the best. but as i always say, you can't have everything so sometimes we have to learn how to compromise. the place they are staying is actually okay compared to others and it is just across the laboratory where they have to have their OJT, the people are all nice & helpful and most of all, they have the room all to themselves. it was like they were playing house... they have their own one burner stove, complete utensils/plates, lots of food, a sofa, beddings but lacks a tv set & radio.
i can just imagine the sadness my cousin must be going thru right now. she has never been completely on her own before. she goes to school at another town but she still goes home every weekend & her mom goes there every thursday and now she's suddenly hundreds of miles away from home. but as mabel said, this is a good thing so that she can learn how to be independent. i also know it was hard for my tita to leave her unica hija but sometimes we just have to learn how to let go. and like a good ate, i promised to look after them, visit them and bring them here at the house during weekends.
this i will do for a month. it would be quite a long drive but i'd do it for the love of my cuz...
