is it vacation time yet?

It feels like forever since I've been to the beach, when in reality its only been 2 or 3 months. For awhile, Carlo and I would go to the beach almost every weekend, whether it be for scuba diving or surfing. I miss the beach so much that I wouldn't mind having salt in my eyes or getting sand in my bikini. My skin is almost pale (well, not really.. ) and my hair is becoming darker and darker. I'm so used to having a deep tan with my hair two shades lighter than it is now.

The sun gods must have been listening because in just two weeks (or maybe a bit more), I will be heading to this place:

Shangri-la Mactan, Cebu!

I finally got my plane ticket today and it feels thismuch closer to D-Day. Its going to be awesome. I have a couple of friends who'll be in the area as well so there :) A little Christmas gift to myself. I can't wait!
