Most of the Filipinos want to go abroad and find good job. Most of my life , I just want to be in my country and apply my learning here. But then, one after the other, my friends apply for work in other country like Saudi Arabia . Actually, many of my friends are in the U.S and Australia .
I now plan to go to the Middle East for greener pasture and for some kind of adventure. When I leave, it will be a new phase of my life

You do realize it's dangerous to go there, most specially with the way Filipino ofw's were mostly treated out there. I almost went to US for a job as a house keeper at pepper mill but the embassy crush that dream. It wasn't because of me, it was my dad who went there as illegal, though he's immigrant now. I doubt i can ever go back, I'm too old for a petition and he has no more money left for it.

I didn't really plan for it, but I thought of it. I studied in Australia before, and I really love the environment there. So, I'd like to stay there if possible. But, at the moment, I am contented with my life here, so I don't think we'll move anytime sooner.

It depends.
If the reason for leaving my country is to work overseas, no. I'm content & happy with my source of income.
If the reason for leaving my country temporarily is because of foreign scholarship, YES! I've been wanting to take further studies abroad. I'm keeping my hopes high. I will never stop submitting foreign scholarship applications, I know one day it will be noticed.

Yes, everybody plans for the greater and secure future. Since most of the south west Asian people seek abroad study and work to make financially secure life. We are in under developing countries and we have less opportunity in our own nation.
