Anticipating a short foreign travel any time in the very near future, I pulled out my most traveled backpack, the one I flew the most often (even since my last years in PH) with and my hand carry coming to NYC. I did not realize that the compass, bought from the Hing's store in my hometown for 49Php when I was in high school, was still in its box in one of the pockets. A collection of flight tags was also very well secured in the bag. I might take the bag with me soon.

I feel like I am busy eight days a week!
[In a couple of years, maybe it'll become nine or ten. It's a good thing that I am prepared/used to it and actually savor challenges. (\m/ on?)]
