family
July 6, 2007What I’ll remember most about this trip wasn’t the food, although it was delicious and fresh, or the sights, as beautiful and awe-inspiring as they were. No, what I’ll remember most about this trip is family. I got to introduce Rama to the rest of our family, my grandma, my aunties and uncles, cousins and nephews and nieces, and even grand-nephews and grand-nieces. And he loved them, just like they loved him. I will remember how family equals care and comfort and kindness, how you can really depend on them when you need them most, how they sometimes surprise you with how wonderful they are. I will remember how my family inspires me to continue their traditions and to someday have a family of our own.
I'm Christine, and this is a slice of my life—a sweet, rich, wildly indulgent slice that would taste really good with a scoop of Breyers vanilla bean ice cream. Read more >>
I run a darling, friendly, little graphic design studio.
I look on the bright side.
I take photos. Lots of photos.
I wish on stars and on websites.
I built my first web site 7 years ago and got 15 seconds of fame. (It changed my life.)
I launched, then relaunched, an online magazine.
I admitted to several embarrassing crushes.
I consumed more bacon than any human should and lived to tell the tales.
Awesome!
indeed!!! that’s what family’s for :)
*hug* as i gain in years and wisdom, family has truly been the thing that continues to have more and more meaning in my life.
I am such a homesick filipina.

I’ve been follwing your blog almost since the beginnning. Crazy…My Lola is also from Bacacay, Albay. We’ve never visited, so thanks for sharing the pictures. It was great seeing how beautiful the place is. I’d love to visit Bikol someday.
That’s beautiful. I’m glad your trip was a good one!
