Puerto Galera is love.
just got back from three days and two nights, and i am now proud that i am a Galera virgin no more - yep, 'twas my first time there. it's a bit embarrassing, especially because i can trace some of my family roots to
Oriental Mindoro and i've never been to this great place. thanks to Chichay, Shey, Slob, Deen, Aika, Time, Coeli, and Tungkung Langit for the company and the fun!
we came home to Manila and Chichay and I went straight to a gig in
saGuijo Cafe + Bar to see
Outerhope and
Nancy Drool. Narda, Death By Tampon The Dorques, and Paramita also played, but we had to go home early and sleep off the sunstroke and the Mindoro Sling aftereffects. :)
oh yeah. corollary to the first sentence of my entry,
Mindoro Sling is great tasting, amaizingly intoxicating love.
anyhow, will post pictures of the trip and the gig later, but just wanted to say that i'm sunburnt, alive, and happy. i'm back checking email and working, but am raring for the next trip, wherever it will be. :)

Igan D'Bayan allegedly goes too far: saGuijo Strikes Back! - hilarious, one, this.
