I'm loving the picture windows in the new apartment. They're like ultra HD tv's and you can pan the picture by moving about in the room. The one in the bedroom frames this really tall tree behind the building. I lie in bed and look at it, I see the leaves swaying, I hear the rustling sound, and I get transported back to the Philippines of my childhood when, after a heavy lunch, playing in the sun, and getting forced to bathe by grown-ups who are against the smell of the sun on my skin ("amoy araw ka na", they'd say), I'd just lay on a bamboo mattress under a mango tree and take a nap, until it's time to have merienda and run around the neighborhood again.
Sigh...
The cow was a present from Nico.

Hei Joey,
Been very busy so I was not in touch for awhile. I need time to read everything that you have gone through the past month.
As for me, here are the latest developments: I turned 37 today. We established a new firm based in London called Spex Projects.
Take care and if you guys are thinking of a good summer vacation, think of Norway. You are welcome here.
Hi Al,
Al daw, o! You're still Anna to me:) Happy Birthday! Good luck with your project in London, does this mean you're gonna be even more busy?
