Vacation is over

It took a week to get over jet lag. Crazy. I missed playing. My guitar is out of its corner now. Lucky my cousin's husband offered to tune it. Relearning songs. I still suck.

Where to buy US dollars in the Philippines?

Other than money changers... Bank of Commerce! We can buy US dollars at Bank of Commerce. You don't even have to be an account-holder to do it too. Good to know.

Airplane food

Beef and potatoes, Asiana economy, JFK-ICN, January 2017 Yummy, especially the cheesecake. It was strange that Asiana served only 2 meals + 1 snack on this long flight (~13 hours).

More shopping on amazon.com It raining now. A little gloomy and dark in here. I kind of like it. Amazon.com is wonderful when you're in the US.

I would've preferred to go to Walmart but it's raining (powerchair must not get wet) and some items I want are on top shelves that I couldn't reach even with my grabber. But it's ok. I still like going there even if it's just to roam around, and people are generally helpful. A nice lady offered to help me reach a Goody hair ties pack that I was staring at for a while at Target two weeks ago. I heard her

Last brunch in 2016

Mandarin oranges, turkey bacon, egg, rice Today is the last day of the year. We went to a movie theater yesterday and saw "Moana" for the darlings. I liked it. It was beautifully made and... it didn't revolve around a romantic love story for once, yay!
