Lucban Quezon: Pahiyas Festival 2011

Lucban, 3-4 hours south of manila, is an upland town in the province of Quezon :one of the largest Philippine provinces in terms of land area. The province is Postcard perfect itself and still has the provincial charm with the distant shadows of the mighty Mount Banahaw and rolling farmlands in the background.


It was a long drive, good thing I secured one magazine and phone are loaded with good music. It helps  me when things get boring down the road. One thing I hate about this travel is that we are not able to reserve a room online. All hotels are fully booked so we drive through one town to another and good thing lady luck is with us.

I love the hotel we stayed in, for a moment I though I was in bali as I stepped out of our hotel. Waking up, seeing the manicured garden, neat pathways and bali inspired structures make me knock my head off. I took so much pictures of the hotel and until now I can’t decide to what picture to post. Sorry if there is no picture of bed, I’m bad when it comes to bed it looks disaster but I assure you it look very attractive.

 I woke up early 4:30 in the morning and this beautiful sunrise welcome me.

And these words echoes:

    Palaisdaan...2,300 a nite goof for 4 person with breakfast and with bahay sa liliw you need to booked early...1,000 per person with breakfast maximum of 10 person. The whole villa will be exclusive for your group.

    @Sheng..I also love Kenneth Cobonque designs and creation. I'm so in love with his Harry Rocking Stool- so quirky and playful:)

Gatsby Party!

As always, the anniversary party was held at Republiq club , Resort world Manila .  holding an anniversary party is a great way to recognize the hard working employees and such a great pleasure for me as  a part of the company who worked hard for my bills and other responsibility. lol This time it seems like a song resonates in my head after the party, it feels like a soundtrack in a movie but nevertheless it was a fun night. Kabog ang sarimanok ni ate! Kuya ang war nasa Zamboanga...lost in space ka yata! choz!   lafang galore! ubos ang tassle sa divisoria...winner! very Gatsby vibe! kampay! waley paki alam sina kuya basta tagay lang! gorabels! Live band that complete the Gatsby vibe! accepting my smile award at si kuya parang nasa kanto lang ang peg! pagoda tragedy! Di naman ako kita dito masydo! next party dapat 15 inches na takong ko! riot na! hala cge! shake it to left to the right! Freshness..d...

Disconnected

  The Heritage Hotel and Stock Market Resto (Serendra)  It's not about what you do. It's about who you are.  It's not about who you are right now.  It's about who you could be.  It's not about what could go wrong. It's about what will go right.  It's not about listening. It's about getting up and dancing.    Life is good!  I'd like to apologize for the lack of posts. I'm back and happy:)

Single...love!

I have spent a significant portion of my life watching sappy romantic movies with ideal couple with guaranteed happy ending is such magical thou expected. I know this is terrible but there is something about them that just seem slightly attainable and relatable to our own life. Not all of us have been assigned a Mcdreamy in this lifetime. Yes! I still have a huge crush with Derek Christopher Shepher of Grey's Anatomy. I’m sorry guys. So you’re single because you’re single. It’s not because you weird, fat or you dress like out of nowhere or it’s not because you did not promptly follow the love chain letter instructions that you have to send it to 20 people close to you. You’re not single because your standards are way too high. It’s good to have standard at least you know what you like.  You’re not single because you did not learn enough from your past relationship or go out on a Friday night after work and have a bottle of beers with your guy office mates instead you ...
