It's 9 o'clock in the morning. I have not had a single wink of sleep.





Later.... (7:53 p.m.)



But although I'm exhausted and sleepy, this has been a perfectly wonderful day. I cried -- in that refreshingly beautiful way bottled-up emotions come up and let loose as tears -- twice: I missed my family, and then I missed my friends. And that was how I knew this life was rich -- because I miss people who mean so much to me, and this confirms me: I cannot say my life is empty then. Later I had my TV finally fixed. It had been tinted green and red in all the wrong places for the past year, but finally I had time today to have it fixed (courtesy of my brother Edwin) -- within the day! and cheaply, too!



I'd better log off now before I get overly melodramatic.



And oh, yeah.... Philippine Daily Inquirer just inquired if I wanted to be an official correspondent for them. I said, of course! It's weird. When I graduated from college, PDI was one of the first media companies I applied to, but without any result. (I ended up editing a crummy community paper.) Now they text me -- and just like that, I'm a PDI correspondent.
