I'm almost home...

It's Nov 11 in Vancouver. 3 more days, I'll be hopping on a plane back to Manila!
Kasabay ko yung isa kong friend going back. He's been here 6 months. Sabay kami, pero ibang plane! Haha PAL ako, siya Cathay.

Interesting kasi kanina nag uusap usap kami at napag usapan namin ano ang mga babalikan namin sa Pilipinas na ika nga, "we'd have to face again". Ang guess what, unanimous... yung dami ng tao, transportation and yung cleanliness.

There's so much nice things I can say about this place, and my experience here for the past 5 months. Thanks to Chase for helping me make this decision about going here. I know he sacrificed a lot for me, but you know, just being supportive and just being there. It was hard for me, but I can only imagine how much more harder it was for him, and yet he's still here for me. And I can't wait to see him when I get back. It's just a couple more days...

And that's why, even though I love love it here, there's still no place like home. I can't wait to see my family. I can't wait to see Chase. I can't wait to have sisig again, or have jollibee, and even KFC! There's so much going on in the Philippines, that I just want to come back.

In fact, special request ko, na first lunch ko back sa Pinas.... is KFC! Hahaha

Of course, I just have to say, I don't look forward to traffic, too much people and pollution. Haha

I Love Fall

With these pictures, there's absolutely no reason why not to LOVE Fall season!

This is me in Ottawa.

And this picture was taken in Queen Elizabeth Park right here in Vancouver:
At Queen Elizabeth

The nice thing about the Fall season is that the leaves are changing colors. You can see red leaves, yellow, dark purple colors, green, etc, altogether. Driving or even walking around is so nice. Good thing the weather hasn't been that cold for the past week. This is probably one of the things I will definitely miss here in Canada.

Usually, in the Fall, when the leaves are changing, they're also.... falling, thus came the name Fall. At this point, you can already see bare trees, which then means... that the winter season is coming really soon. But once spring time comes, the trees, flowers will start to bloom again.

And that's the cycle. But I haven't experienced Spring and Winter season yet, only summer and fall. In my opinion, Summer versus Fall? I'd prefer Fall.
