Dear Lana, Mama, and Dada,

I love you. It is great to be here because they have a swimming pool but there is not a very deep part. We go to the beach and I saw fishes in the beach, it was cool. I saw blue and a green one. And I wanna give you another sentence for you becauseone time I saw a monkey and I pointed at him Tito AA but it ran at me but a man saw him and chased the monkey away. And I saw a biiiig lizard. The Big Lizard was where the monkeys were and the little lizards were at a restaurant. I holded the tail of the big lizard and we took pictures. I also held a crocodile. It was fun. It just feels like a little heavy and kind of hard and a little bit soft and that's all for this sentence. I love you and miss you. I'll be home soon

We're in Tagaytay until tomorrow when we're flying into Palawan. I didn't know it at the time but we're apparently going to visit Nimfa or whatever her name is. Dad's also been acting weird since I got back from Zamboanga, like he feels as though I don't really value his connections or whatever because he keeps making it a point to point out people he knows, are related to to me or whatever. He wants me to move to Manila to take care of the Project 6 property. I told him I dunno if that's a good idea but he wants to demolish it to build an office building. I told him I'd consider it but I want to see how the movie thing plays out first.

Mamang and I got to Manila safely though it was pretty funny. The guy in the row in front of us was a real Jihadi. Not one of those Moros but an actual like Arabian. Mamang commented that he must've came to visit the Abu Sayaf to me. Robbie's girlfriend rode on the plane with us and she was just laughing when Mamang said that.

Lauryn's happy that I'm back with her and Mom because she says I'm her playmate here. She keeps begging mom if she can stay in my room with me.

I'll try to call you guys tomorrow at some point.

Dear Lana,

I rode on the horse. I liked it. It was great. I love you and I rode for two hours. It was long. Tito King (Tito June's son) rode with me but two times it went fast but I think it's still fun. And when I was eating in a restaurant I had some repellant I mean the thing to block the flies I mean the fleas. It's just I mean because I made a mistake. Nooo don't type that. I don't want you to type that.

And in the restaurant I got bitten of a kind of a flea called a nikiniki. When it bite me, it really hurted and then after he feels dizzy and he didn't like me so it was so great. I was afraid because of other bugs are going to bite me.

Dear Mama And Dada and Chomper and Jelly and Nino and Nani and Tita Lala and Tito Archie (But you have to call him stinky),

Mama and Dada I love you. And I rode on a horse. Its great and fun and it was kinda long for two hours and I really do love you very very very very very very very very much. And That's all I want to say to you.

Chomper when I was riding on a horsey I saw a dog that looked like you but not so old. It was great. It was. And when we are going back, I miss the dog that looks like you but that's okay I told Lola that I saw one and it was great. THat's all I wanna say to you.

Jelly, I know you're a dog. I miss you and sometimes I see dogs in the Philippines and it was great. Well sometimes I see the dogs and when I was riding a horsey, I saw dogs and that's all I wanna say to you.

Dear Nino,

I miss you a lot. I'm going to bring you back a present when I come back and the Philippines is great. I also bought a toy that has a friend and its a game and I don't remember what its called though and its pet is happy right now, I mean my friend. And I don't know how to play it really. If you know how, send me back a message that says this I know how to do your game. I'll just tell you but if you don't understand, just write back a letter that says I don't know what you're saying. Repeat it. And that's all I wanna say to you.

Dear Nani,

I miss you. And I really love you. The Philippines is great. I am happy and I really wanna write you a letter. This message and that's all. Thank you.

Dear Tita Lala,

I... I said I. I am going to buy you a present and its really going to be great. Even when you come back. I love you. And its great to the be at the Philippines because I am having fun. And that's all.

Dear Tito Archie,

I really love you. I am going to send you a message and its this message and its super duper big. That's all.

Love,

Lauryn

So last day of our Zamboanga adventure. This morning we woke up early and drove about an hour away to a place called Bolong which is the ancestral lands of the Jaldons. I met one of our great grandmothers who looks like... a gnarled version of mom. Same build. S ame height. High cheekbones. Same hair. It was eerie. Bolong is like a big beach that we own but we have no claim on the land at the moment. Rob wants to claim it and build a resort there so he can become Don Roberto Valentino De Jesus Jaldon De Bolong. Uncle Bob said he sounds like some drug dealer. Uncle Bob wants us all tot ake a trip to Zamboanga so he can take us through our Jaldon history. Mom called me and left me a giant shopping list of crap to buy in Zamboanga - Kiyamoi (which she claims is for Lyndon and Desy), Strawberry Apollo, Bagoong, Sardines, et al.

Tomorrow morning we're oging back to Manila then as soon as we land, we're going straight to Tagaytay about 5 hours away. From there we're going to just stay there for like a day then go back to Manila to fly to Visayas (Palawan) for a few days at some resort then we're going to spend the last 4 days back in Manila for any last minute shopping. So try to get back to me before then so I can keep my eyes openf or the stuff you might want.

Lauryn's pretty funny. Everytime I've eaten a meal with her here, she's ordered Mango Juice. Or Mango Shake. Then she'll take a sip and decide it tastes funny and then just orders a bottle of water instead which leaves me to finish her shake for her. I'll try to check my email again in a few hours in case I have a response for you Desy.

I'm in Zamboanga right now in some internet cafe near uncle Bob's house. These chairs are tiny and the keyboard is weird because its all in like Jihadi letters. Desy - I found you some chandalier type earrings but they are smaller than I was looking for. I got them though. Apparently class A fake purses here are what are they make best.

Its the birthday of the Mayor tonight and we're going to some party up in some fancy ass garden party where we have to get all dressed up because Uncle Bob is introducing us to him.

Lauryn is in Manila with mom and dad while me and Mamang went to Zamboanga. Dad bought mom a fake iphone which I've dubbed the iphong. 09192670704 is her number but dad's been the one using it most. Lauryn seems a bit culture shocked especially regarding the like really poor beggar kids.

Aqui - your friend finally got a hold of us I think she is meeting with Mom/dad tomorrow. She said she also has some books for you.

Lee - I haven't found any flags/tube amps here yet. I did, however locate some helmets but didn't have cash on me at the time. I am going back tomorrow with Robbie after we visit Bolong. I'm going to have them paint it for you to look like Skull-1

Nino, Archie, Lala - I still don't know what to get you guys. Get back to me. Stuff is so cheap here. Dad almost bought a painting from this girl for Nino until he realized it was a tranny.
