How the Brits got jiggy with it: The Tagalog-British-Kalingan Inter-cultural Wedding

On top of the Talama Ranch in Tabuk City, Kalinga is the reception of Kuya Stew and Jaydee's inter-cultural wedding. 

When we had the "pamamanhikan" before, we were told that it takes time ( I'm not sure if it was a month) to make the tent and make sure to cover the surroundings of the place.

Months before, Ate Chimy and I were BBMing each other and I was sending her photos that I took from my phone so that she will have an idea once she gets there. They flew in three days ahead of us and had more cultural immersion.

Anti-Idle Mind Movement

I am making a move to preoccupy my mind with reading books to prevent my mind from thinking about... things that I should no longer be thinking about. (so to speak)

So with gradschool stuff coming up ( a breather, actually) I intend to have a Plan B to relax my mind through Chick Literature books.

I'm excited for October because I'll be getting new books from my cousin Stew that I requested, but I am now more ecstatic that Kuya Stew sent me Chick Lit books in advance! ( Thanks Kuya! I'm looking forward to the other batch when you arrive! )

Kuya Stew said that he got me tons of books (with a testimonial from his sister Chimayne as well) and said that I will be reading them for the next five years. I've got five words for you, Kuya:

Super. Looking. Forward. To. It.

Books by Meg Cabot
 I was really ecstatic when he got me the UK version of the hard to find Jane Green Books!
The UK version of Jane Green Books ( To have and To Hold and Dune Road) 
So happy that I strongly feel that this deserves a post of  its own. I keep on going through the pages one by one with a wide smile on my face.

Thank you so much Kuya! See you in a few months! :)

Much love,
Your excited cousin
