The big "V"

As in Vacationing.... It has been 21 days since i arrived here in the US and so far i am having the time of my life.

It was so nice to reunite with the other half of my family. Those who i have not seen for more than half of my life. They have taken me to different places where i have seen only in the movies. Once again i say my famous line, "... so this is how it feels...". I have travelled from the east to west coast and north to south of california in less than three weeks. I have seen places than even some people who live here have not seen. And for that, i really consider myself as someone who is blessed... i thank HIM for everything.

A good friend of mine took out some time to show me around California. The places we went to were really beautiful, some with breath taking scenery. Without him i probably wouldn't have gotten to these spots. I really appreciate the time and saying THANK YOU seems not enough to show my gratitude. I have yet to write up a story for those two "love birds" on malibu beach... =)

I am sitting here in the cozy confines of my sister's beautiful house... looking forward to what else the US has to offer for tourists like me. My family has made several plans for the remaining days of my trip. Tomorrow we leave for vegas. A place everyone has something to say for.

This is by far the longest vacation i have had since i finished college. In my young 6 years of working, i suddenly realize that this is how a vacation feels like. Away from all the stress and the pressure. I must say that i will definitely have a hard time going back to my normal life.
