Awhile ago, Den and I chatted. She asked me if I want to go with her and have a vacation. I searched the place, saw some pictures and I love the place.

Cool and nice, right? Well, the big question is - will I join or not? 
I love to join! as in I really want. As you may all know this past few days I feel really bad and I really need a rest and time to think. I guess this trip would be nice.
Upon seeing the pictures I really love to see it and experience it myself.
but....
the problem is - its month-end!!! meaning I have to do the reports and checked all the tasks .. (gosh, too bad!) and filing a leave in that dates would be difficult. *sighs*
Go or not to Go....
have to think....
