The Skyline Angel

Just a skyline angel with healing wings, dreaming of the open, waiting for the day...
The day that my wings will fully heal, and I can spread them out and fly away...
I wait... Breathing with hope, and living on that almost unshakeable force called faith.
... But until that day, the feathers of my memories shall be carried on the breeze of time and destiny... to this humble little blog.

The school year is over. My freshman year in Pisay is no more. The moment I handed over my now battered, scratched blue school ID, I knew that I could no longer call myself a freshman. I am now a suffermore. Ay este, sophomore pala.

I changed so much over the year. I found some quizzes in Kuya Jowi's blog that can show just how far - or not - I've gone as a PSHS - MC Topaz 09 student.
