Thank You PCTrends!

You type in the word read from the generated image for the comment to push through. It’s cute and human readable too. Hopefully no more viagra, cialis, xanax, blah blah blah.
First Trip to Mindanao
Last week Friday to Wednesday, I flew to Cagayan de Oro, Mindanao (the day after super hurricane Milenyo) and took a 2-hour bus ride to Iligan City to visit my friend and former classmate, Amabelle. Why? Nothing in particular. Just missed her and fulfilled a long overdue promise to visit her province. She was first [...]
