but it's on. really. and while this has been in the works for some time now, actually booking and confirming the tickets has got me too excited for words.
more when i can.
(jetstar's itinerary doesn't really look like this. the positioning of the logo is entirely my doing. but it would be cool if it did no?)
Meanwhile
seeing as i've been tagged by g...
- my birthday is coming up in 21 days!
- the only jeans i wear are levi's

- my first kiss was at the age of 14 (i was watching a movie with a guy friend)
- i eat uncooked instant noodles (those packed in plastic, not cup noodles, although not recently)
- i graduated in the top 10% (or less?) of my college batch
- both of my childhood best friends are half spanish

- i used to change my handwriting and my signature a lot when i was younger, making it hard for me to keep bank accounts

- my name means "light"
- i get tipsy very easily (am proud to never have puked though. aww i remember the days when justine and i used to cut lab and go to mickey's house to get plastered. and when kael made sure i was sober before going to glee club rehearsal. geez those were good times.)
so according to the rules, since it took me 10 minutes to finish this, 10 people have to be tagged right? okay, so i choose jeline, tatat, nette, hazel, jason, ate, jayred, mrs. a, rina and meanne. go forth and multiply!
