so, now what?

got back from Sagada the other day. amazing. Banaue. Batad. hiked and hiked. and hiked. these places are magical methinks. went spelunking in Sagada. waded in waist high underground rivers. marveled at underground waterfalls. saw bats and slipped and slid on their guano. saw amazing rock formations. and hanging coffins positioned precariously high on limestone walls. (tabi, tabi po.)

and sadly, lots of graffiti. what is it with us hu-mons? must we literally and figuratively piss on everything? what propels us to deface even the most sacred places? it's almost like we need an outside reminder that we exist, that we count. we exist! we count! quit scrawling on everything!

i'm back in metro manila, and i feel restless. Tagalog on Site Summer 2007 officially ended the other day. most of the participants have flown back to the states. for the first time since june 9th, i haven't got a schedule. phew. and holy shit. so, now what?
