I saw Manila one last time from the night skies.

Airplane Blues
Flight attendant: Hello. Would you like to have juice, coffee or tea?
Me: Orange juice please
Father: Tea
Mother: Splenda

Hayyy. Splenda is not a drink, mom!

You know what, I will really miss the PAL airport. Actually I'm lying. Im so happy I never have to take my shoes off in an airport again. That airport is so inconvenient its annoying. I even heard a conversation of two foreigners saying how much they hated the whole routine of taking their shoes off, opening hand carries, assigning numbers to your hand carries blah blah blah. Oh well. What do you expect? It's the Philippines!

I feel a little awkward being here. I feel like I'm still going home, but really I'm not. Sometimes, I get butterflies in my tummy. I don't know why.

When the airplane was taking off I was looking down at the Philippines. It was night time so all I could see were lights. It was so beautiful. I was able to trace out the south super highway [I've always wondered why its called 'super'], Alabang, Tagaytay, so on and so forth. The Philippines is so beautiful. I will miss her.

Thank you to those who left a comment on my last entry and to the rest who read it. It made me feel like I always have a place to go home to. I love you all very much. I also want to say thanks to everyone who takes the time to read my blog. I never knew that a number of my friends actually read my entires. Napakacool. I made this blog for you guys so please come back.

Most of the time I also wonder if random people around the world read my blog. Because whenever I look at the live traffic feed and map I see people from different countries visit. It's weird. It feels weird having strangers read my posts. Oh well. I guess thats the world of blogging!

Thank you to Cara for my Filipino junk food. Im so happy I have chocnut!!!

I shall sleep. Sa susunod!
