From the vault: Vignette - Ambiguous

“We finish,” says the man. “Each other’s sentences,” says the woman. “She’d like a Cosmopolitan,” says the man to the bartender. “He’ll have a Jack Daniels on the rocks,” says his companion. “Isn’t this place wonderful?” They exclaim together, and giggle like high school sweethearts who’ve only been going out for a month. Arms around each other, they go back to their table, sipping their drinks. You can be anyone. But who am I here? Who do I want to be? “Oops, sorry,” says a blonde beauty that almost spills her martini on me. “I think I’ve had too many of these tonight.” “Well who can blame you,” I say. “This place is supposed to be just a one night deal, right?” “Well said! Here’s to more then!” She raises her glass and almost falls, but I steady her back with a hand.

Big Saturday

July 18, Saturday is a big day. I. I was a bit late in registering, but it seems I've made it into the official list of participants for the 2009 Scott Kelby Worldwide Photowalk - Pasig. It's just for two hours, all free shooting, and just a tricycle ride away from home. Here's to fingers crossed to get at least a honorable mention for the contest (which is international, LOL) afterward, but just being able to be part of an official photography event - despite my newbie-ness - is a great thing in itself. I hope I'll be able to take some decent pictures. II. Afterward, after a bit of rest, I'm off to see my favorite person in the world, and spend some time with her. We only see each other once a week, so it's always something I really look forward to. It's a wonderful, wonderful cap off to my Saturday. Thanks a lot, God. ^_^

One last thing before I hit the sack.

I realize I haven't been posting as much as I want to (ha, Captain Obvious), settling for the occasional photo. Still, I just want to give out a big thank You to the Guy Upstairs, for blessings and what I pray to be good things to come. =============== Serendra, on a hot, Saturday afternoon:
