Nooo! I received my acceptance letter for my paid internship in Herndon, DCs suburb. I got another paid internship in Chicago, but I chose Herndon, because of: one, proximity to Washington, DC; two, two of my closest classmates, Yeni and Ata were also attending the same internship, so we did smell parties, right away; and three, a free stay in a Holiday Inn for 16 weeks.
Washington, DC, is a cradle of decent people. They just looked different; they have this distinct good look, distinct fashion and refined mannerism, from the way they speak to the way they walk. Or just my imagination—I thought all people from DC were congressmen and diplomats. Probably, it was because I was so fresh from schooling.
My friends said that DC was the American version of Paris. True or False, I think DC was fabulous on its own. I enjoyed DC a lot, from clubbing and sightseeing to bumming around Georgetown and playing “big booty big booty oh yeah big booty” for hours at the Washington Monument.
Washington, DC, was a romance. It was meant to be loved, a place created by Greek gods and goddesses; only this time, it was not a myth. The glowing lights at night complement the unimaginable natural beauty of the city—its wide and elegant roads, alluring historical buildings, creative monuments, chic neighborhood, feel-good environment and beautiful people. Washington, DC, is the capital that glows day and night. #
We were bored and decided to have a pyramid pose.
We were playing the hilarious funny drinking game “big booty big booty oh yeah big booty”
The Washington Monument, everyone was waiting for one spectacular 4th of July fireworks

I like your humor. When it makes sense. Joke.
Nice blog! I like that your descriptions are grounded to Pinoy sensibilities. Although I haven’t been to places you travelled, I can relate to it by your comparisons to Pinoy stuff like the dome as similar to Araneta Coliseum. Gets ko!
From reading your blog, I think the photo of you pointing to the passing plane depicts you well…an enthusiastic lakwatsero. Cool!
