Last week was so full of win (so to speak). I got a chance to meet Neil Gaiman, talk to him for a few minutes and get my book signed. Never mind that he won’t know me from Adam should we meet again. To me, that was a moment (or two) that I won’t ever forget.

Saturday, I went to run some errands and found a book someone was looking for. I sort of act as a book buyer, so when people email me for a book, I try to find it for them. These books are usually secondhand books, so they’re cheaper and often hard to find.

Sunday, I spent the whole day with my family: brother, cousins, aunt & uncles. We went around Chinatown and had a fun food trip. It was a tiring day, but it was so much fun that we plan to do it again.

It made me appreciate my relatives more. It also made me more aware of the treasure hidden beneath the chaotic world that is Manila.
