On Leave


"Bakasyonista"

The last time I used the word was n years ago, back in college. We were using this word to refer to someone who’s enrolled with 18 units or less, for no “valid” reason. The long hours of free time and breaks make them a bakasyonista.


Excited. I’ll be on a week long vacation by the end of this month.



The thought of having a 6-day off from work makes me feel better. This is the much needed break. For the first time in 5 months I’ll be breathing and cleaning my lungs with the freshest air again, eat healthy home-cooked meals and enjoy the comfort of being at home with my family.


Also,



I’m Baguio bound after the Halloween. I can’t wait to wear my jacket while on the streets, and drink HOT coffee once more. Uhmm...

Sarap naman! Bakasyon!

Ako rin eh, last week ko na nga ito then next week since 2 days lang ang may pasok nag-file na rin ako ng vacation leave para masulit ang bakasyon!

Di pa ako sigurado pero I might go to La Union (hometown ng Daddy ko.)and Baguio as well!

Excited na nga ako sa pagbisita sa puntod ng mga Lolo at Lola ko eh...sa La Union kasi sila nakahimlay.

Have a safe trip! :)

Good thing you'll have your VL. I'm happy for you. Hehe.

Nasa Baguio rin ako, pero last week pa ng November. Excited na rin ako..makakarating ulit ako ng Baguio! Yehey!

Sana naman less than 10deg na ang temp dun, kasi nung nandun kami nung June medyo mainit na eh :D. Para maranasan ko naman ang maging frozen. Chill.
