It may still be the middle of April, but for me it already spells the end of summer. May will pass by in a rush and Hello! school rush traffic and onslaught of rains. I have no more vacation plans until maybe toward the end of the year. But I spent a really cool weekend at Warren’s Beach in San Remigio with some of the officemates.

I finally finished Jeffrey Eugenides’ The Virgin Suicides a few weeks ago. It is a good read - most times I found myself marveling at the POV presented since the story is in first person, and a teenage boy, at that. I haven’t seen the movie so I don’t have an opinion of whether it does the book justice or even better.

I have never believed in soul mates. Not because I don’t believe that there is someone for everyone but because I believe my soul to be whole and not a half waiting for the other 50% to make it whole. Don’t get me wrong: I don’t think negatively about people who believe in soul mates, whether soul mate lovers or soul mate friends. We all can get along even if we have different views.
Soul mates are fiction and an illusion.

EJ invited me to go with them - D, her hubby, and G - to Simala, Sibonga, a town south of Cebu City. Road trip! How could I say No? I got my cam ready, comfy sandals, my hat, and lathered the sunblock on really thick. I was ready to go! When we got to the monastery (Surprise! We didn’t think that was what we would find…) I was glad I decided on ditching the short shorts as the place had this sign: Bawal ang seksing damit (rough translation: Sexy clothes are prohibited).
Quote of the day - EJ: I can’t help it if all my clothes make me look sexy. I so agree! 
My three companions did the stations of the cross while I tagged along and snapped away. This is my favorite picture of the place:
