His friend gave me a pink envelope. For some reason he thought I liked pink. He had no idea who I was, but my hands trembled as I pried the envelope open. The letter made no sense at all, but I felt like I was the luckiest girl in the world.

If I could have my way, I would live on an island and grow my own food. I would have nothing to do with money and classroom education. My greatest joys would be in songs, dancing and food, even if I can’t carry a tune, dance or cook properly. I will be pollution free! No [...]

For some reason, the blue calms my nerves and quiets my brain. I have always been comforted by my Anilao. Just me, diving in Anilao. Doesn’t matter [...]
the rock of a promise
Yesterday I went to Anilao under the pre-text of guiding 10 divers underwater. I had to force him to drive me all the way, cause I couldn’t handle the long drive. (takes him 3 hours, it’ll probably take me 4 or 5..)I put up with the uncomfortably touchy Korean boys, [...]
