Boracay here we come...

I'm off to Boracay today with my girls. Paid far more than we should by doing this at the last minute but hey, we're all determined to enjoy ourselves.

Come on, rain already!

yay, rain!

When I looked out my window this morning, I wanted to dance with happiness at the promise of rain that usually follow the appearance of clouds like that (dark, creepy etc.) I was pretty excited because I'd truly like an end to the infernal heat I and countless other Pinoys have been subjected to this summer... and honestly, I'm not too crazy about my Meralco bill either which is now 3x what I usually pay.

So like a little kid, I waited and waited for the rain to fall. I even seriously thought about standing on the porch to shower in the rain... I was that giddy, but alas, it was not to be. An hour later this was how it looked like outside.

nooooooo...

Good thing I held out on the dancing, I would have felt more disappointed (and foolish) if I did my rain dance and this happened. Oh well, I have to turn the aircon on now.

Summer Weather Really Sucks!

sooo hot...

This hot weather is making me miserable, it was 95˚F (35˚C) yesterday and according to the Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) forecasters, it's going to get even warmer in the days ahead.

I have a bet going on with my friend Jane about getting through the summer without turning on the aircon and now I'm afraid I'll lose if this weather persists (there's a Lacoste bag on the line). I'm hanging on by a thread here. I hope it would rain soon.

Update: getting hotter still...
