I touched down in Doha on the 15th of November. I had a little immigration trouble in the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) but I got through it with the minimum amount of tears shed in the airport lounge. It was a bit embarassing to be seen crying in public though I couldn't care less ( Read more... )

98 degrees was right when they sang:
"It's the hardest thing
I'll ever have to do
To turn around and walk away
Pretending I don't love you."

Difference here is that I have never pretended not to love anyone.

Oh wait, I did.

That's not the point in question here, ( Read more... )

I haven't been blogging lately.
I've been swamped with ~work~.
But my lovely Joseph has been blogging for the both of us. NAT.

Tali, Batangas

Azyet was absolutely right,
"Everybody needs a little time away."

I lifted my self-imposed exile long enough for this trip to Tali with the JMA Oldies. Tali is supposed to be a beach destination but because the weather can be quite unpredictable these days we decided to stick close to the poolside.

Or rather, stop trying to snatch my camera away. Not that any snatching really happened. I just succumbed to the fear of my mom killing me if I lost it. She insists I leave it at home. Hence, this post is yet again poorly documented.

The past two weeks were spent seeing friends to warm my rain-flooded heart.

Got back to Manila last Monday, August 2. The whole trip home was cray cray. 
My seat was upgraded to business class which allowed me to enjoy the benefits of having a male flight attendant whose accent was yummeh and whose eyes were made for looking into mine, asking me if there was anything else I needed. Sigh. You. Only you. 
And for that, I ( Read more... )

After 3 months of sane behavior and righteous inclinations, I am finally coming home - for a vacation!
ARE YOU READY FOR ME MANILA? No, I don't think so.

Since this is my last week in Doha. We scheduled a Fighting Japanese Night with the Galotera Family and Ate Nicole. It was a numbing 3-hour cooking experience. I will never look at Tempura and Maki ( Read more... )

Today, during breakfast...

Ate: Tin, kumain ka na?
Me: Oo.
Ate: Ano kinain mo?
Me: Isang cookie and milk
Ate: Ano ka, si Santa?

I cry. :|

It was my birthday last Thursday. It was a whole lot different from the way I have celebrated for the past few years.
For one thing, I didn't have friends to shake it up and my favorite poison wasn't available. Nonetheless, my family turned things around by giving me a midnight ( Read more... )
