Summer vacation!

We pulled it off! <3 Yay! Okay, so we went to Tagaytay for our long awaited summer vacation. Haha it was an adventure. We went there via public transportation. We were even able to go to Nasugbu for a short beach experience. :)

Finding a bus wasn't that hard. There are a lot of buses along Taft Avenue so we just had to look for one that goes to Tagaytay or Nasugbu. It took us around 2 hours without so much traffic. Needless to say the travel went ok. :) Had a quick lunch at KFC then bought some chips then a tricycle ride to our place- Crosswinds Tagaytay. The place was nice. An ideal spot for relaxation and quality time. The place was cozy enough to force us not to leave for dinner. HAHA. Good thing we had noodles. ;) We can also cook but the problem was we didn't have any ingredients. It would be a big hassle without a private car. But anyway. The air was fresh and walking along the pine-tree-lined streets was amazing!

The trip to Nasugbu was quite the adventure. Hahaha we were walking along the road and asking people how to get there. The people were kind enough to give us directions. :) The beachfront was not that nice, compared to San Juan's. But what the heck, we were in it for the adventure and experience. From Magallanes Square in Tagaytay, Nasugbu us 44 kilometers away. It took us around an hour and a half to get there by bus. Another tricycle ride and we arrived at the beach place. Decent place for families who are on a tight budget. But for those who are looking for white sand or clearer water, San Juan (Batangas) would be a better bet.

After taking a few pictures and watching kids swim, we decided to go home. :) Another tricycle ride and we're back at the bus terminal in Nasugbu. This bus travels up to Lawton so we didn't have to get off and find another ride. It's like a direct flight to Taft again. :) The travel was tiring. Probably because of the whole day's activity. When we arrived home, KO in bed! :))))))

HAAAAAA. That was an amazing trip. The best part was we went there via commute! Hehehe saved a lot of money on gas and had loads of experience. :) Next year, we're planning to go a bit farther. ;)

Circumcision

Okay, so I just had my first minor operation yesterday! :) First time to perform it. Hahaha was too tired last night to write about it. :)

Site: Barangay Lupang Pangako Health Center, Payatas

Not only was it my first time to circumcise but it was also my first time to go to Payatas. Haha. The smell was actually not that bad. Surprisingly. I don't know, maybe it's just me 'coz my friends still say there's a stench when I can't even smell anything. Despite the fact that the mountain of trash was just behind the building. So anyway, I got to perform 2 surgeries and I'm definitely satisfied with what I've done. :D I didn't take any pictures during the actual operation since the kid might get shy or what; against patient privacy. But one of my friends took a picture of me (don't worry, the actual 'site' can't be seen) so I have a souvenir. :)

There were a lot of kids who lined up to have the surgery, unfortunately, we ran out of supplies. :\ I don't know if there's gonna be a part 2 for this place. There's gonna be 3 more missions until the end of April and I'm thinking about joining. You know, more experience. My target is to finish one in 15-20mins. Hehehe.

Happy Hunger Games

So we watched Hunger Games today. It was very disturbing. :o Kids killing each other. Ugh. >.< Though the guy from District 2 was kinda cute. I think Kato was his name. Idk.

Happy day again since I got job assignments which mean I would have some money for gimik! YEY! Hehehe. Sad part though is it's the type that gets repeated over and over again. :s A bit harsh to my brain cells but hey, at least I get something out of it. :)

Also got something today. :D

Happy Me Day

Lasertag date dapat today kaso dahil syempre kami ito, hindi na natuloy. Pero havey. Pagdating ko plang sa meeting palce, may shooting na agad! :D Andun si Mark Herras. Not even sure kung tama yung spelling pero siya na yun! ;)

Went to a kiddie party! Ngayon nalang ulit ako nakakita ng mga mascot at parlor games. Ah, memories. Remembered the days when we used to attend those parties every week. ;) We witnessed an interesting scenario. The giveaway was an ice cream pen, which looked delicious! Anyway, while everyone was piling out, some of the kids and relatives were left behind to chat (that includes us). One girl opened her ice cream pen and took a bite, realizing that it tasted nothing she just gave this disappointed face...until she saw the cake! So, while everyone was busy chit-chatting she went for the cake and dipped her pen in it! Luckily, we saw it and told her mom who took her. We then saw her taking a lick from the pen with a satisfied smile. After a few minutes when her mom and everyone else was again, chatting, she went to the cake again! This time, she dipped one side of the pen (that's when we saw her and went to get her) and then rolled the other side and dipped that whole side on to the cake! :)))) In the back of our minds, "Shoot. What a clever kid!"

That's not the reason why today was my "Happy Me Day." I bought 2 shirts, a pair of shoes and got my eyebrows thread! :D Hahaha. Talk about shopping/pampering self. I missed this. The days when I used to go to the mall to actually shop. Most of the days kasi I get off the train then take a ride home at the mall (transpo terminals). That's the use of the mall for me for about a year now. Hihihihi. Fun fun fun.

Now. I'm still trying to fix something. Hopefully they get home on time so I can still go out. asdfghjk. If not, this is gonna be a fight.

Happy Easter!

HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE! :)

Feel so happy today. Probably because the homily was very inspiring. ^.^ We all have second chances. Jesus gave his disciples another shot, so we should give ourselves that same opportunity. Never lose hope!

Got this alarming chismis about a relative. Apparently there's something going on with the family and now, it's confirmed! T.T asdfghjwlidiauouiwerb! Nakakainis lang na pati bata nadadamay sa problema. Bata na ang nakakakita senyo, di mo paren inaamin. Lakas ng loob mong maggagawa ng kalokohan, di mo naman kayang iharap at aminin sa ibang tao. Anubeee. KASTRESS!

Don't want to ruin my Easter with that news. Let them handle their own problems. They're old enough, they'd know what to do.

Time for some quality me time! :D GA season 7 and some future planning with my lovey! :">

Hey, if you're reading this... I love you! :*

Watch what you eat!

Holy Week’s almost over but my summer’s just starting. J

Went to the Easter Vigil mass then had ‘dinner’ at 7-11. Funny because I had sips of coffee and some noodles. I missed that. Having a small convenience store where you can buy some snack or ready-to-eat lunch when you’re running a bit late. Too bad we don’t have that in my school now. Actually, I think I miss it but I really don’t? HAHA. Since I went to this new school, my intake of fastfood and junk foods dramatically decreased. See before, after eating my baon I would usually buy some dessert which would usually be… chocolate bar, ice cream or shake. Then after about 2 hours, I would buy some chips. Then before going home, I’d probably eat out (rice and chicken is my usual) and since it’s a bit late, I’ll make sure I have something to munch while driving; which again, is chips. Talk about a very unhealthy lifestyle. Ironic since I spent my 4 years in college advocating for a healthy lifestyle. Tsss. Easier said than done.

What’s more interesting, or alarming, is that just a few days ago I found out that I have a high body fat percentage. @.@ Yeah, I was actually surprised. I even doubted the machine that got that reading. But in any case, I need to start doing some exercise. With all my genetic predispositions for heart disease, cancer and diabetes I really am bound to acquire at least one of those when I get older. So my goal is to have those diseases WHEN I’m old. I mean, everybody has to die of something right? It’s just that I have to take care of my body enough to reach that ripe, old age when I can accept the fact that I am gonna get sick and eventually die.

Ramblings

Vacation!! :)

First summer vacation after 5 years! Grabe sarap ng feeling. :)) But then, Holy Week so medyo tahimik dito.

Excited na ko mag-next week! Well, siguro kasi makakalabas na ko ulit ng bahay. Nakaktamad rin pala pag palaging nsa bahay lang. Hehe. Labo. Pag may pasok, gusto nasa bahay. Pag nasa bahay gusto may pasok. :s

The reason why I'm updating this blog is because I'm bored. :p And, I just realized that I have this thing for writing. Funny if you ask me because I never really liked writing. Siguro dahil kinailangan ko nalang rin humanap ng pagkakakitaan kaya nag-venture ako sa field na ‘to. J I’m actually a freelance article writer and I enjoy it. Aside from the fact that I get paid, I actually learn new things.

There’s this freedom I feel whenever I write. It’s like I can say anything I want and not get punished for it. Before getting this job, I tried writing fanfictions (Harry Potter- Dramione, for those who might ask) and that experience is very different. When writing fics, I get to explore and tickle my imagination. I can put in anything I want; and I mean ANYTHING.

Who knows, when I get that bored I’d probably post another story here. ;)
