Summer is now officially over, here comes the rain... The rain and I had made so many memories together some could make me smile while others could make me cry. But right now, I just miss going around Baguio while it is raining and just watching other people hurry on their way to God knows where. I miss curling up in my room with a good book while the rain is pouring outside. I also miss, the times when we (me and friends) would just stop by a coffee shop to catch-up with each other's lives while waiting for the rain to stop.
I hope I could go back to Baguio again... Not now though. That place brings back too many memories that I don't wanna remember right now. Even though I only spent 6 years of my there, I learned many lessons.
Things I Learned while staying Baguio:
1. Be independent.
2. Be responsible for myself.
3. How to "budget" my money.
