In Media Res

Long before I flew out of the country to start another life on the other side of the world, I promised I would come back, that I would never forget where I was from and who I was. I guess, I am starting this story in media res. I am in the middle of my trip back to the Philippines. There are some things I have probably forgotten to document, some things that skip my mind. I'll try to remember as much as I can; Mental notes of slight culture shock, comparisons, and observations.
