I need a break and I’m rambling. Anyway, I had my hair cut, the day I left the Philippines on May 16, 2006, and so, most of those in the Philippines saw me with my long hair, see my past blog entry, I am back from the Philippines. I wanted to have a photo with my new hairdo and with the rose that Hub gave me on the day I arrived in Switzerland. So, there you are…

Hub took my picture on May 23, 2006, so the rose that I was holding was already one week old and it was still looking nice. I took the picture of the rose below on May 19, 2006.

Ok now, I’m not really into blogging but this is one way of updating my relatives and friends especially those in the Philippines who are not into Friendster, Hi5, Skype, Yahoo Messenger, etc. but I read blogs. It was because of a blog that I was actually found by a college friend I haven’t seen for almost 20 years now. I normally don’t write any comment in a blog. I just wrote one comment in that blog, and there you are, Atinna found me. Hallelujah!

So, why did I mention Atinna? Well, I was tagged by Atinna before, my first, and I didn’t write anything about it. I was tagged again, and I think it’s time for me to write something about it.
