It’s not what it sounds like.
Believe me, it was just too overwhelming to let pass.

Being stuck in this matchbox I call my apartment (which is really a term the landlord used, but it’s okay, he’s a good guy) because my nose has been exhibiting a good imitation of the Pagsanjan Falls, and my throat just kept reminding me to lay off them smokes for a while.

I would like to illustrate what I feel, take photos of things and places and events that I feel should be seen by other people.
