Relaxing
Saw this template at Photofunia - SM Cebu City 
Which reminded me about the elite travel club membership I signed up for last Thursday. I hope I get to use it, work is set to be more hectic soon. But let’s all think positively :-). I will get to use my great discount when I set off to my island vacays, one of them in Cebu (again). I just know it!

My bro and I were looking at plane fares a few days ago. Perhaps a trip to Davao and to Digos, where we once lived for 3 years, is called for. Going down south will surely entail going to the beach for an early summer. I’m a bit excited at the prospect. I was looking for past summer photos and saw this

Clear Skies
Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.
-Maria Robinson
I have been asking God for his good graces today. The grace to make me feel better, so that everything else may follow suit. I also asked for clarity, since my eyes have been puffy with confusion. I have so much to do

The Mirror is a Bit Off
Life is just a mirror, and what you see out there, you must first see inside of you.

New Taxi Numbers
So I’m stuck here at the office on a Sunday. I know, pathetic. I love my job. Anyway, I try the numbers that I know to get taxis and find that my favorite one - 24/7 taxi - is out. I further find out that my other numbers are obsolete.
