It’s raining again. And you know what happens when it rains, right? Yes, I’m there again.
I don’t know if I can really blame the rain about how I am feeling now though. Maybe after a stressful week (or month?), I am now experiencing the effects of all the changes and challenges I encountered. I am not complaining, don’t get me wrong. I think I need this-a time to disengage and look at things from a different perspective, finally ask questions I was afraid to ask myself…
And I still don’t have the answers.
Is this really what happens when you’re getting a year older again? Am I normal? Haha
It’s my birthday on the 19th. Don’t expect a treat, but I’ll expect you to greet.

Last Friday I, with sillyserious and two college friends Donna and TJ, flew to Dumaguete to witness the wedding of Pam (a close friend from college, and roommate for a sem) and Budi. We went there a day early so we’ll have some time to roam around and see the city.
We had a fun-filled FOOD Trip!
I never thought gourmet food could be sold cheap. Pastries, cakes, coffee, international cuisine, for the price of Fastfood! Too bad we’re not able to bring pasalubong.
We got used to Manila life, thinking all shops are open on Sundays. Sigh.
The trip was also a good bonding moment. We were able to catch up on each other’s lives. Especially on TJ and Donna’s love story.
It’s amazing how easy it has been to be comfy and open to people you haven’t seen for months (or has it been years?).
I don’t have pictures from the trip yet. But soon, when we get the files from Donks and Teej, I’ll post some.
This is the downside of not bringing a digicam during trips. You have to wait some time before you get a hold of the pics. I think the advantage gave more weight to me: I get to be in most, if not all, of the pics! Hahaha

Thinking about Dumaguete got my mind off the senti. I guess I really should not put the blame on the rain, huh?
