This is still home for me.

I miss home. I can't wait to go back next year.

My dad laughing after serenading my mom with his ukelele.
(You can't see my mom, but she's somewhere on the right side of the picture, giggling like a schoolgirl.)

My mom waving from the balcony of our house back in the Philippines.

One of the many malls in Makati City.
(1,000 choices indeed!)

Having coffee with my dad and sister at a local coffee shop.

You can't quite see it,
but it's one of the most successful fastfood joints back home -
Jollibee - I miss Filipino-centric fastfood.

This is Jollibee, the mascot of aforementioned fastfood joint.
(And this is us, showing our love for Jollibee.)
