"-The total lunar eclipse will begin on July 8, Friday, at 10:59 p.m. and will last until 1:25 a.m. The best time to look will be about 12:15 a.m.", the female reporter said.
She was standing there seriously and professionally although there was also a hint of excitement on her voice.
An Astrophile, too...
Inayos ko ang salaming dumudulas pababa ng ilong ko.

I didn't even let the her finish her news report as I immediately clicked the exit button. The screen showed the list of my saved videos, mostly about the upcoming astronomical events.

"Payapa..." bulong ko sa sarili ko.
Nagpatuloy ako sa paglalakad patungo sa garden ng bahay.
Ang mga mumunting damo ay tila kinikiliti ang talampakan ng aking mga paa. Napapangiti ako sa pakiramdam na dulot noon.
I stopped when I reached a certain spot in the garden. I smiled bitterly as I reminisced the past.
