Bicol Trip!

When I was a kid, I will often draw volcanoes as perfect as triangle like Mayon Volcano. So visiting Bicol was a dream come true it’s like seeing those childhood drawing comes to life.

The main purpose of the trip is to attend a best friend’s wedding and to try to discover the beauty of Bicol in a relax manner. This is how I travel, I want to enjoy every moment. I don’t want to rush from one place to another just for the sake that you can say ay naputahan ko lahat or nalibot ko  or because you want to share it.

I don’t want to stress myself during travel so I don’t make itineraries, I only make a list which means you can still go sightseeing and play tourist without stressing yourself out. The trick here is to loosen the reins on your schedule a little bit.

Bicol region has recently seen a revival in its tourism industry, due to the popularity of Mayon Volcano, the new CamSur Water Sports Complex, whale shark spotting, among others, which consequently increased the number of upscale resorts in the region. via

And its gastronomic food experience to offer!  Spicy food! Pag lapang mode talaga winner skn! Peg ko yan!

I'm not good with  travel entry but I love travelling as much as I love to wait for my big shot from the love department...lol



while waiting for the 7:50 am flight- good thing I have good music download on my BB:)


 Good job for me! I only have two small bags! I tried to squeeze all my clothes to the yellow bag
and the other one is for my killer shoes to wear to the big day!
breakfast@ airport/clubhouse:Delifrance
Touchdown Legaspi! Then head to Sorsogon to our booked hotel and dress up to attend the big day.
they add up to my happiness! Travel with my girlfriends. We used the starex van
for the 3 days trip! I like going on road trips to see the hidden surprises along the way.
There’s a certain feeling of freedom you get when you’re just driving to get to your destinations,
not knowing what to expect at each turn.
Fail jump shot:)
    
   First stop: Cagsawa Ruins

   Remnants of an 18 century Franciscan Church and was destroyed by the eruption of the Mayon Volcano.
Located in the minicipality Daraga Albay. Below is an old photo I found thru Wikipedia .
It explain well the danger of living close proximity to the volcano
And now you will only see the belfry and some part of the convent
Upon arrival, local people will approached you and offer their photography services.
just give your camera then they do some tricky snapshots. It was fun but the
sun will surely melt you! So armed yourself with a good sunscreen.
After all the energy draining fun jump and trick shots, we gave the boy P400 sa dami pa namang kinuha nyang
picture sat for sure naguluhan sya sa daming naming dalang camera:)

Then I check all the shops within the area and bought souvenirs and hauled Pili!
              By 11 pm we bid goodbye to the classic post card Mayon Volcano with a big smile
            on our faces like a child whose dream come true and hit back the road heading to CAMSUR!

Life is Good

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 ...
