Welcome back Moieee.

Sept 1 (Saturday) - My cousins dropped me off at the new Iloilo Airport around 930am. I checked thru my luggage so that I won't have to go thru the hassle of checking in again in Manila. When I arrived NAIA, my boyfriend and I spent half the day going around Mall of Asia with his dad. I had so much fun just being with him, even doing nothing. Just the thought of him, hugging me, holding my hand and making me feel secure were all that mattered to me that day. They toured me around for awhile since my next flight to Los Angeles was still 10pm. My boyfriend will be attending a food and wine expo at the world trade center this week so he'll be staying in Manila for awhile. I don't know when he'll be back in Iloilo so I will miss him for sure. Gawd, I miss him already. The times we spend in each others' arms are the best feeling in the world, I wished I had the power to stop the time and just leave it to that for a very long time. They then dropped me off around 8pm back at the international airport. After I went thru the last security check for the night, I felt exhausted yet restless. And before I placed my phones into roaming, I called my boo for the last time that night and said our heartfelt 'see ya laters' to one another.

The travel time was approximately 12 hours and it was rather a turbulent flight around the wee hours of the morning when we passed the international date line. I was sitting directly infront of the television which was awesome coz I had extra leg room but the teenager beside me was rather annoying coz she spent half the time lying on my shoulders. I had to simply clear my throat or moved a couple of times so as to shove her off to her side. I feel uneasy when it comes to those kinds of people but since I'm good hearted, I don't embarrass them directly like others would if they were in my situation.

Sept 1 *USA* - The plane touched down around 730pm. But it took me awhile inside the airport becoz there was hella freakin long wait at the baggage claim area for my luggage. Since my luggage was checked thru from the province it was piled at the very last. Imagine it took me 2 hours just waiting for it and another 30minutes lining up at the customs for clearance. By the time I saw my family, it was a stunning 10pm already. It was great seeing them all again. They even brought a "WELCOME HOME ATE!" banner with their pictures on it. It was cool. I missed them sooo much!

Anyway, we ate our late dinner at Denny's 24hr Diner. I was starving and tired but happy to see all of them once again. My siblings were the happiest of them all, telling me their nonstop experiences from school and stuffs. I even missed the corny jokes dad always tell and mom's questions about everything. I missed the noisy atmosphere when I'm with my family. I'm glad I'm back.
