Summer is in the metro

If you were in Metro Manila this Saturday, you'd probably have noticed that summer is finally here. We don't need to hear it from our national weather agency; we just have to feel our sweaty backs and smell our stinky armpits.

For book lovers like me, it's the time to consider reading the doorstops. Finally, we can get to read those 800-page novels that we've bought on a splurge, telling ourselves that we'll find the time to read them. I'm looking forward to the Holy Week this year, as I believe that we'll be having more days off from work, which translates to more days reading. Bliss.
