for everyone
These are my pictures from my family weekend trip (July 7-9) to Negros -- almost right at the very beginning of round two of bar review. I guess God knew I badly (as in BADLY) needed a vacation.

Lola was taken to the hospital last Thursday so we went home to Negros to visit her. Then she surprised everyone by bouncing back to her normal healthy self the day after we arrived. :) My Lola Emma is living proof that someone who doesn't drink much water, doesn't eat vegetables, eats fiesta ham and ice cream and plays mahjong everyday can live up to the ripe old age of 93! She's amazing!

It was nice to come home to Negros again :)
