solxee Why did I say ‘warmer’? I guess I meant better days (edited it). Especially since it’s so cold here in Davao now. Or is it just me struggling with those freezing morning showers lol?

solxee Ending January with sleet and snow sounds rough—meanwhile, I’m over here in the Philippines where “winter” just means slightly less sweat. I honestly don’t know which is better though.
