Guernsey proved to be the island i imagined it to be.. it is a tranquil and safe haven ideal for families and retired couples who wants to enjoy the remaining days of their lives.. nonetheless, it is also a pragmatic venture for filipino nurses and accountants alike.. i was surprised to discover how "accountancy" is the new "nursing" in a sense that there is a greater demand of accountants here compared to nurses.. plus the fact that they get paid more than we do.. the last time i've heard.. they were getting a starting salary of £35000 per annum.. it was a far cry from my humble salary of £25000.. *sigh*
St. Peter's port marina was breathtaking. It recaptures the pulchritude of the archaic structures without spoiling the spectacle of the seaside vista. It rejuvenated my lowly spirit after weeks and months of suffering in utter state of melancholy and downheartedness. Every sight was a welcome change to the normal panorama of the daily London life.
Nonetheless, much more than this, I needed Guernsey for something else. I seeked for thrill, adventure, and the "adrenaline rush". It was my very own time to enjoy myself without any possible inclination of other people's criticisms... I grew tired of it. For once, it was my alone time. But i got more than I bargained for.
I crashed. I fell. I lost control. I suffered. I got into a cycle accident. Im still healing the wounds. The pathetic details will be on the next post...
