Hi! everyone. In a few hours, I’ll be on the plane to take that long trek to the Philippines. My Dad passed away last Monday (Manila time), the following morning after his big birthday celebration. He was 77 years old.
I am lost. I originally intended to just “disappear” but I deem fit to let you know. Everything was all too sudden, he died of massive heart attack.
Right now, I’m trying hard to just 
But it’s so hard.
To all my blogger friends, please bear with me during this trying time. I will all get back to you (comments and memes) when I come back. To my fellow Entrecarders, be rest assured I will make some arrangements so I can still drop back on you. Thanks.
