If there is any way to ‘know’ love – any sort of way to describe or define it – this is highly subjective. Love, at least to me, is selfless yet completely selfish. . This selfless love is something quite gradual that grows as I get to know you better and catch glimpses of your innate, immutable qualities – your kindness, your integrity, your character. While human beings are continuously mutating creatures, I do believe that there are things in us that are tested by life and time, yet do not change. This is the foundation of a human being, maybe it’s the soul, I don’t know – but these are the very things that I see in you every day.  Selfless love leads to selfish love. I also love you for my own sake – for how you improve my life by driving me to be kinder and more understanding; changing the way I see myself and the world; making me question and even strengthen my beliefs and values. Yet it’s also just as simple as the fact that you make me feel wonderful and help me enjoy life just a little more than I would without you.          T :)

For the love of eating the authentic: Our Ilocos Trip;Laoag

Before we travel I carefully set an itinerary for all the things we are going to do. I even search for well known restaurants and food to try. I list down places to visit and make a budget for each. For our Ilocos trip, I had 6 revisions of the plan before it became definitive. The original arrangement was to include Pagudpud in our trip but since we have limited time we decided to skip Pagudpud and just visit Laoag and Vigan. We rode Partas bus in going to Laoag. The bus departed Cubao at around 12:00am. The bus ride was comfortable, though it felt very cold at dawn. I thought we will reach Laoag around 9: 00am for I was expecting a 9-hour bus ride. We arrived in Partas Bus Station La Elliana hotel We got a very cheap air-conditioned hotel room. Considering the very affordable price of the hotel one would not expect it to be presentable. To my surprise the room was huge. It has a clean bathroom with hot and cold water a T.V. and even telephone. The linens were also c

Be mad

-
Some people don't know that when they hurt you, they take away a piece of you that you can't get back. Not all people around you will understand it unless they have felt the same pain or they have given the same things you gave. Even that, the pain wont still be the same. So when your hurt, its okay to be mad, to say things to let some pain get out of your chest. Do not apologize for it, for people surely doesn't know  all the pain you've been through.  Be mad and be okay with it.

We took Partas bus in going to Vigan from Laoag. It was a  2-hour travel.  From Partas bus station in Vigan, we rode a tricycle that transported us to Calle Crisollogo. Since we have no hotel booking we strolled around the area and looked for a good hotel with a not-so-expensive rate.  A lot of hotels and inns are within the area. Your choice would only be dependent on your budget. I personally like Grandpa’s Inn. The interiors and the ambiance of the inn makes you feel like you are transported back in time. It was creepy but exciting.  The only available room when we checked are the rooms with common bathroom it is cheap but we don’t want to share a bathroom with the other tourists. We checked in Cordillera Inn. It was an old hotel with an old bed frame. It was a little bit scary but it was manageable. Calle Crisologo The street brings you back to an era of old Spanish house, where women wears baro’t saya and filipiniana. I love walking on this street. It’s amusing and r
