The gates to loneliness are empty.
When one (or rather two since a couple is involved) is in a long distance relationship, both must expect fairly regular dealings with the sickness of LDR loneliness. One sickness that I am going through at this very moment. One sickness that I loathe to the core because it's so hard to get out of…plus it is regular in long distance relationships.
Do you have your bouts of LDR loneliness too?

I am Lonely as this sculpture
Work has been so tiring for me and Dodong in these past two-three weeks. I'm quite new at work, been attending back-to-back-to-back meetings at the same time reading emails, doing reports and all at work. PLUS, I still have my projects on the side: another blog to maintain, writing projects, financial planning sessions, and more. On the other hand, Dodong has been handed over a shitload of work, transferring to another group in his desert office.
I feel like a star in my career right now (at least I think so. Hehehe!), but it's been just lonely…

Killing loneliness doesn't have to be a suicide mission
Earlier this week, I was just feeling down in the dumps wanting to rid this gripping feeling of loneliness.In our almost two-years in a long distance relationship, the loneliness pops up, creeps up once in a while…maybe even regularly. Once a month? Once in a quarter? I have not taken note of the patterns just yet. But it never totally disappears. I just wanted to kill it. Yes, kill the loneliness. At least temporarily.
And I worked hard to do so. What best killed that bastard called loneliness this time?

2 out of my 3 weddings for JANUARY alone!
2010 is definitely a year peppered with WEDDINGS. Gosh. I'm not sure if weddings are a trend nowadays or if I am in that stage in life already. But this January alone, I will attend 3 weddings! (Well, I've attended one last night so 1 down) 3 weddings in a month! CRAZY! There are more lining up for later this year. So it's really just crazy, crazy, crazy wedding year.
At first, I did thought that attending weddings on my own was okay. I can survive. It's just like any other party I go to alone. BUT no, I must say it is different. It makes me feel more alone…lonely…sigh.
So how do I survive weddings without Dodong, my plus one??? I do try. So here goes…

Stuffing myself silly is not the same without YOU
Last year, due to visa concerns, Dodong was able to spend Christmas here at home. But this year is different. After his 2-week vacation, he had to go back to the desert for work. So unlike most OFWs, most kabayans, who are home for the holidays, Dodong is in the desert, working while trying to recreate the Christmas celebrations with fellow kabayans. Is your honey home or away for the holidays too?
This is Dodong's first Christmas away from home in a foreign non-Christian land. Plus, this is our first Christmas apart…
