It's 945pm, Sunday night here in Cebu. I am bored. I am anxious. I am feeling helpless. The damn Korean airlines would not let me fly back to Dallas sooner than August 28. The reason? I didn't pay enough to be able to fly whenever I want. I paid $1972.00 US dollars and they considered it a cheap fare? They tell me I can fly on the 13th of August if I pay an additional 600 dollars.

Maybe tomorrow I will feel better, maybe tomorrow I will be able to tell myself that there's a reason for everything. But right now, I miss everything and everyone in Dallas and I just simply want to hold Kalya again. And this is what's frustrating me the most----not being able to do just that.
