There’s another on-going seat sale right now, and despite my vow not to use my credit card this month, I ended up abusing it. My last tally of 7 tickets have now risen to 13 tickets. Total damage to my credit card: Php 2,335.80 for 6 one-way tickets to different destinations. Next year is going to be totally crazy. Fare thee well, Japan.

I just love how it starts exactly on the date I wanted to have a weekend getaway. Unfortunately, I can’t book & buy yet, as my credit card is maxed out (again). I have to wait until Monday, when I’ve paid my outstanding charges. Oh the agony!

I dunno if it’s because of my wonky internet connection or Cebu Pacific’s customers are overloading the system, but I can’t get past the front page. Darn it! Oh well, I don’t have enough funds anyway.
