When I went home to the Philippines for Shaynna’s birthday, I took advantage of the airline website’s seat selector. I love being seated next to the window but I don’t want to be seated right next to the plane’s exit signs and doors. So I chose the seats right in front of the […]

St. Mary’s Cathedral
Queen Victoria Building - a shopping center!
Too bad I only got this from a colleague. I only had 2 disposable cameras […]
