home is not safe anymore

sad but true.... "karma" lang yan....

bakasyon grande sa palawan

had a veryblast weekend. Went to Palawan with super cool dudes! == Cathy, Bebe, and Juliann.

** August 11, 2006 **
Arrive one day ahead. went to memorial to visit my Dad. So excited to visit my Dad. It took me almost 3-4 yrs to visit again. sobrang na-miss ko.

Go to my tita and tito at Malvar St. =) Sobra akong na-touch sa kanila. Had a trip with insan(cousin) Peter to Cathedral, Ramon Mitra house (overlooking Honda bay - di ko lang masyado na-appreciate kasi umuulan.)


Had dinner with my cousins sa Balinsasayaw. Sobra akong nabusog. Ang daming food, at ang sasarap! promise. If you went to Puerto, never miss this one. Ang ganda pa nang ambience =)


Back to hotel. Alone. Relax. Quiet. Peaceful. Enjoy. =)




** August 12, 2006 **
Had a nice breakfast at Tribu Restaurant - overlooking the baywalk. nabusog na naman ako! hehe.

Fetch my friends at the airport. Had lunch at Badjao Seafront. Good Food, ambience.

lobsters and squid. seafood galore!!!!!

Went to Honda Bay. Island Hopping na. Snake Island so far is the best. lucky us, kasi naman umuulan. nag chorus kami at kumanta ng "rainy day". tumigil ang ulan. nakakita kami ng 3 starfish. hehe. pero ganda sana pang-snorkeling. daming makikitang fish. (sabi nila...) wrong timing lang siguro... di bale, next time. babalikan ko talga ito. so, mga pre! kelan tayo babalik. hehe. =)


New things coming.... had dinner at Kalui. we had to remove our shoes before going in. ang cool. the ambience is super great. nasa lapag kami kumain (parang japanese style). seafood feast. they don't serve pork, chicken, though. their food keeps me coming back for MORE! kelan ba uli ang food trip natin sa palawan? haha!




Trip sa Hangar Zone, comedy bar. sobrang kulit ng isang comedian. ang galing magpatawa. forget her/his name. =(

stroll at baywalk.... had to include this photo... sobrang memorable...

** August 13, 2006 **

Yuppie! El Nido day!!!! 7 hrs drive was not a fun drive pero adventurous. Lucky us, dahil may pinsan akong super bait na nag-drive all the way to El Nido. =) I really won't survive 7 hrs riding in this "air-continous" bus (umuulan pa ha!). Salamat Insan Peter & Kuya Jun. hehe. sa uulitin ha. Nagasgas nga lang ng sobra ang car niya. OOpsS!

el nido, palawan. truly breathtaking....

had our dinner at sea slugs restaurant. yum! that's rock shandy (P50.00,non-alcoholic drink), the best ang fish steak (P120.00) & the spicy crab in coconut sauce (P150.00) affordable!

The 7 hr trip was all worth it. wala akong masabi... as in breathtaking nga talaga siya. the was is so clear, you can actually see small fishes underwater. words aren't enough to describe my feelings (NAKS!) We went to small lagoon, big lagoon. Boat can't enter the small lagoon, you have to swim, or kayak.

had our lunch at simisu island


goofing around at the entalula island




.... kaso super bitin... had to go back to Puerto....

back to reality.....

oh, i wish i can go back there... soon......

canyon woods, tagaytay

my late post.

Went to canyon woods, Tagaytay, last Sunday with Cathy, Juliann, and Mona. Organized by Mandarin Class.

sleepy - had to to be at the meeting place at 5am DAW per text msg. kaso naman, umalis ng 630am. sobrang gutom na. gusto na namin magpa-deliver sa mcdo. ayaw kasi kami palabasin sa bus.

trip - sobrang layo pero ayos lang, maganda ang mga house. =)

getting to know games - medyo fun siya nung una, kaso tiring at boring na after ilang games. sobrang init din sa basketball court.

facilities - maganda ang facilities. we played mini-golf, nag-boating, at swimming (sobrang strict in wearing of swim cap). may fishing rin sila at 2 badminton court (we weren't inform, so sayang at hindi kami nakapagdala ng raketa).

they also organize a henna tattoo session. wasn't able to avail this, kasi ang ikli ng free time. blame it to those supposedly fun games.

fun naman ... enjoy sa swimming. =)

bad day

bad trip. bad day. bad. bad. bad.

tsk tsk tsk!

Your Love Life Secrets Are

Looking back on your life, you will only have one true love. You've been deeply wounded in the past, and you're still recovering from that hurt. You expect a lot from your lover - you want the full package. You tend to be very picky. In fights, you are able to walk away and calm down. You are able to weather the storm. A break-up usually comes as a shock to you. You always think things are going well.

for the love of cellphone....

"... ang aking buhay.... ikaw ang laging kapiling... hahamakin ang lahat, basta't para sa'yo..."

nakakatawa. nakakainis. puyat. gutom....

when: last night

sis: nasa ospital si ahia.
me: ha? bakit? anong nangyari?
sis: tumalon sa jip, may holdaper sa jip.

so, go na kami sa ospital, tinatahi na raw kung sugat sa upper right head ng kuya ko.... hintay... x-ray raw ang kamay.... hintay.... may nabaling buto, kailangan daw operahin...lalagyan daw muna ng cemento, allergy pa ata sa gamot... skin test... hintay... after nun... pwede na raw umuwi.... buti di na kailangang i-confine. haayy...

so anong nangyari?? ayaw ibigay ng kuya ko cellphone niya, a N6510. kaya ayun, at may i talon siya sa jip, somewhere in pedro gil (malvar st.). nasugatan ang ulo niya na kailangang itahi, nabalian nang buto sa right arm na kailangang iopera. hmmm.... worth it ba siya? NO NO NO. mas malaki pa ata nagastos niya sa paggamot, at di pa siya makapag-work. haayy.... eto nalang.... at least...... naisalba ang cellphone niya. tsk tsk tsk!

nakakalungkot lang... buti yun lang ang nangyari sa kuya ko. nakwentuhan ko ang pulis s ospital... dami na palang cases na ganun. may babae, tumalon din sa jip, di naman dead on arrival pero namatay din after ilang days. may mag-ama, lalaki, di rin nila sinasanto ang marunong mag-karate. may case na ganito, lumaban ang biktima, binaril siya. tsk! tsk! tsk! what a brutal way to die..... better to give up the cellphone kaysa naman makita ang pic mong duguan sa tabloid. eto masasabi ko dyan.... wa-poise!

women against men

reading my emails this afternoon... can't wait to share this piece... everyone needs a nice laugh specially women...

WOMEN'S REVENGE

"Cash, check or charge?" I asked, after folding items the woman wished to purchase. As she fumbled for her wallet I noticed a remote control for a television set in her purse."So, do you always carry your TV remote?" I asked."No," she replied, " but my husband refused to come shopping with me, and I figured this was the most evil thing I could do to him legally.

UNDERSTANDING WOMEN (A MAN'S PERSPECTIVE)

I know I'm not going to understand women. I'll never understand how you can take boiling hot wax, pour it onto your upper thigh, rip the hair out by the root, and still be afraid of a spider.

W O R D S

A husband read an article to his wife about how many words women use a day... 30,000 to a man's 15,000. The wife replied, "The reason has to be because we have to repeat everything to men...The husband then turned to his wife and asked, "What?"

CREATION

A man said to his wife one day, "I don't know how you can be so stupid and so beautiful all at the same time." The wife responded, "Allow me to explain. God made me beautiful so you would be attracted to me; God made me stupid so I would be attracted to you!

The Silent Treatment

A man and his wife were having some problems at home and were giving each other the silent treatment. Suddenly, the man realized that the next day, he would need his wife to wake him at 5:00 AM for an early morning business flight. Not wanting to be the first to break the silence (and LOSE), he wrote on a piece of paper, "Please wake me at 5:00 AM." He left it where he knew she would find it. The next morning, the man woke up, only to discover it was 9:00 AM and he had missed his flight. Furious, he was about to go and see why his wife hadn't wakened him, when he noticed a piece of paper by the bed. The paper said, "It is 5:00 AM. Wake up."Men are not equipped for these kinds of contests.

God may have created man before wOman, but there is always a rough draft before the masterpiece.

kite flying

went to Luneta grandstand yesterday with my younger brother to fly kite. i bought 2 kites last week, trip lang. almost 3 hours kaming ng kite. we arrived around 3pm. di masyado enjoy, wala kasing hangin. i ate green mango, & chicharon while waiting for a perfect time to fly our kites. hanga ako sa determination nang little bro ko, nasa gitna siya ng field flying kite under the sun. gudness! kakain nalang ako. hehe. mga 5pm na ako nakapag-kite.

happy kasi minsan lang pumayag little bro ko sa mga ganyang activities. =)

enough

had a great morning...

hope it'll last the whole day...

suddenly, it didn't turn out right...

? it have to end this way????

papa's birthday!!!

today is my papa's birthday!!! have visited temple yesterday to greet my dad an advance happy birthday. =) i plan to buy cake or ice cream before going home .... =) sad lang.... di ko masyado na-express on how much i appreciate my dad when he is still alive.

i just hope this gets through.... i love you, Dad. Happy Birthday!!

nandyan siya....

God knows how i miss my Dad so much....

... yesterday was something.... last year ko pa hinahanap ang "coupler" (don't know if i get the spelling right) for my Dad's camera na ginagamit ko ngayon. nice camera, i may say, so nice for an hobbyist. lucky me =) nyway, you need this coupler para makabit ang flash. hard to find na ito... finally nakahanap na ako sa quiapo, pina-reserved ko na and i'm willing to buy it last night, have to bring my camera kasi and the flash para ma-test ang coupler.

before last night.....i'm asking for a sign sa Dad ko baka kasi may coupler na ang camera na yun, misplace lang. walang sign... so, i need to buy na.

yesterday, i got home to get the camera and the flash... nakita ko ang box ng flash. walang laman. ok. so nasaan na ang flash? definitely sure, nandyan lang siya ng last time kong makita. baka dinala ni ate sa med mission. hmm... determinado pa rin akong hanapin ang flash. i found the NIKON black pouch... *thinking* hmm... ano kaya ito? i swear, hindi ko nakita yun the last time i check. and guess what? i found a nice NIKON flash and the COUPLER! ayus! ang galing! natulala lang ako. *thinking* paano napunta ito dito?

....first thing comes to my mind... DAD.

thank you, DAD.

remember myself saying way back "sana nandito siya" .... di naman pala siya nawala... nandyan siya.
