Getting Out of My Parents' House

I have lived in the suburbs most of my life, I think around 28 years of my life. Don't get me wrong, I love it here. However, what I don't like is, it is quite far from downtown and most of the business centers. So when I go out and have to take the commuter jeepney (our public transportation), it is really very tiring. And it takes so much time to prepare and have to go out earlier.

When I first got married, I was really excited to move out of my parents' house and move into my husband's parents' house because they live in the city. It is very near everything. I didn't have to spend extra money for my transportation and my clients can just visit me during office hours because my in-laws' have store in the ground floor. It was pretty convenient.

City living may have its perks, but it can also be tiring. Now that I am having a vacation here at my parents' home, I am enjoying the peace and quiet and the freshness of the air.

Maybe we will do this next time, especially if our daughter will be born. We spend the weekdays at my in-laws and spend the weekends at my parents. I think it would be a great thing to do. It is soo peaceful here. Makes me feel refreshed. And I am sure that my daughter would love a change of scenery from time to time. And my parents, too, would enjoy having their first grandchild around.
