Travel with Hoop


Get in the loop with HOOP!

I am so ecstatic to share with everyone my latest project, a travel agency, HOOP Travels and Services! We are a home-based enterprise that offers domestic and international airline ticketing services, hotel accommodations and tour packages. We opened for business on January 20th and are operating 8 hours a day, all days of the week.

I learned about this trade from Jerby, one of my college best-friends, who also owns one. She encouraged me to try it too, especially since I don't need much to get started. With a few hundred bucks and fast internet, I could book flights for anyone to anywhere around the world. I absolutely loved the idea and thought it was perfect for someone who has zero business management experience. I decided to pursue it once I get home, and with God's grace, we are now the first and only booking office in our area! 😊

This little achievement is so dear to me as I personally set this all up. From picking out the business name to designing advertisement tarpaulins. From visiting agency after agency to have the business registered to inviting friends to like our Facebook page. I did it all by myself (okay, I may have gotten some help on some matters, but still, I made it happen).

In my previous post (which I deleted along with others), I mentioned about finally doing things on my own as my goal for 2017. I felt like all my life I've been consciously and unconsciously dependent on people around me. I let them map my life out and go where I was told to go. Of course, it's not entirely a bad thing. I am not where I am today if not for those roads I've traveled on. I would not have met and became friends with amazing people and experienced an unbelievably good life. That said, there were also moments of disconnect - times when I asked myself a lot of what-ifs.

Right now, I would like to spare time for the uncertainties. I want to explore other possibilities without somebody pulling the strings for me. I am ready.

So here's to hoping I find what I am looking for! Here's to discovering our other potentials! Here's to going places!

Clues & Choices

I have been listening to Taylor Swift's new album, Folklore, this past month. I think my neighbors are already suspicious of me as I've been playing it almost every day since its release. My favorite tracks are Exile, Mirrorball, Epiphany, and Invisible String. The last one, I heard, is about her and her boyfriend of four years, Joe Alwyn. In the song, she mentions about where they were when they were younger, what happened during one of their dates, how he accepted all of her, and how cool that there was this invisible string that tied him to her. It's a really romantic song! I can imagine how happy and in love my girl Taytay is!  A lyric in Invisible String goes:  Were there clues I didn't see?  Apparently, she is in disbelief that the universe conspired to make them happen. Is it possible, though, that such a force exists? That something, say divine intervention/fate/destiny, leaves clues or signs to guide us to where we are supposed to be? Ages ago, around seventeen...

6th & Forever

The chismis is real! We're engaged! 💖 I was playing on my phone when I heard over the intercom that Marvin's plane has landed. I let out a sigh of relief, thankful that he's arrived safely. I immediately texted him where I was and where he should go so I'd see him. Each time a batch of passengers would come out from the building, I'd search for him, feeling a bit antsy. It's embarrassing but frankly, I wasn't sure how he actually looked, though we've just had a video call less than 24 hours ago. But when I saw him walking down the ramp, I knew for sure that that was him. It's been two years and it was only then that I realized how I've truly missed him! Like the moment when we first sat side by side as lovers, seeing him for the first time after a very long time felt pretty awkward. I was hesitant to display affection in front of hundreds of strangers. Lels. But he did kiss me on my forehead and I then gave him a hug - still in ...
