When Snow Falls in the Tropics

It’s been minutes past midnight, and the ride to drowsy land hasn't arrived just yet. What better way to spend the hours staring at the blank ceiling, mind wandering than to write? I've been thinking of posting this since my sister’s first broadcast of the recent weather over where she is right now. Her Facebook tells me of the freezing weather, so that makes it bloody cold, right? So here I begin imagining of white landscapes and reminiscing at the same time.



more random pix...

She’s finally a grownup now having to do her own laundry, cook for her housemates, and spring clean their apartment. She has grown into a confident, independent, smart woman. I’m sorry, but that "woman" labelling is my brave act of letting her go as my "pretty" girl (I call her that), the only girl in the family.

I’m proud of her -- my confidante and my bestfriend.

  1. I guess when you're in another country, most people are forced to grow up & be independent ── which is actually very good.Ü

  8. Wow. Snow in tropical zones is really rare (except in high altitudes, ok). There is snow in my country (Brazil), but only in the non-tropical regions.

    Btw, nice blog! =P
