ANAWANGIN

Been to Anawangin before October ended. It was my first time. I've been hearing a lot of this place - the beautiful view, the pine trees, the lake, mountains that surrounds the beach and how relaxing the place is - all good things I must say. Their stories excites me and wanted so much to experience the place. So when someone invited me to come, I said YES!

The place was indeed wonderful. If you are a nature lover, you'll definitely enjoy being there. Anawangin is very popular to the mountaineering community and photographers. They are the peeps whom I kept on hearing stories about this place. And by the way, Anawangin will bring you back to basics. The place doesn't have electricity, signal and you will need to bring a tent and camp if you want to stay overnight as there are no resorts available. Cool, right? 

The place deserves to be called a Paradise. Too bad it was a little crowded when we went there because of the long weekend I guess. But the place did not fail to amuse me. I would still love to go back there and explore the place more.

Had my team building at Bataan like 2 weeks ago. Me and Slice did our thing while at the beach and those are sun bathing and pictures. LOL! That's how we always are at the beach. Fun, fun fun!

THROUGH THE LENS

This is how I see them through the lens... :)

BORACAY 2011

Some photos from our Boracay trip. Stress-free, lazy days, relaxing view, party till dawn, beers, all fun... It is indeed a vacation! If I can just be on vacation mode forever... LOL!

What's with the song? It's being played there all through out our stay that we suddenly kept on singing into it...

It's not about the money, money, moneyWe don't need your money, money, moneyWe just wanna make the world danceForget about the price tag...

VACATION STARTS NOW...

I'm officially on vacation now. 

I'll be far away from reality for quite awhile. 

Woooohooo! 

That's just exactly what I need. 

 Vacation days ahead. 

Let the fun and relaxation begin!

RAINY AND WINDY BEACH EXPERIENCE

As stated in my previous post, I'll be going back to Puerto Galera. I did, together with friends. We went there Saturday morning. We didn't expect that this Galera trip will be accompanied by the typhoon "Bebeng". It was a rainy and windy experience at the beach.

The rain started Saturday night, all was still good and having fun with all the open bars that night. We thought that sun will show up the next day but the rain keeps on going. Majority of my friends (Che, Djhaye, Popz, Shayne and Lois) decided to go home Sunday afternoon though it keeps on raining and the wind is just unpredictable. Me and Slice stayed and planned to go home Monday morning, we were with Kuya Dennis and family who plans to leave as well on Monday. It was raining all through out that Sunday and wind were so strong that we all felt afraid even for just a walk outside.

We woke up early on Monday to prepare our things so we can go home. It was already sunny but still windy, that means the waves will go crazy. Our boat ride is at 10:15am, but with all those people who extended their stay and would go home that day too, all boats were jam-packed and we were able to have the 12:30pm boat ride to Batangas Port. 

The waves are too big which gives difficulty to the boat that were riding. There was something wrong with the boat that time, and I think the boatmen were just not saying it to avoid panicking for all the people out there. We were stuck at the middle of the sea for quite long while the crew were trying to fix something. When it was fixed, we were sent to the nearest beach resort and waited for another boat to fetch us. 

That beach experience was so tiring. I always felt relax whenever I'm at the beach but not this one. It was so stressful! But of course you still need to look ways how to have fun, I just can't let myself be taken away by boredom. It would just be nice if it didn't rain at all. I missed the heat of sun at the beach. :(

and waiting for the next boat to rescue us. LOL! *

that we're staying. Haha! *

Will I still go back at Puerto Galera? Uhmmmmm. Let's see. LOL!

I'M GOING BACK

Puerto Galera - I am going back there. 

See you tomorrow!

WISHING I COULD STAY

Atlas! Beach. My sweet escape, the place that I would always want to be. Being there helps me get back to 'ME'. It never failed to enliven the individuality in me. Whenever I am at the beach, things around me were simply in a state of tranquility. I will never get weary of that place.

Though I am with my team, I still had my 'Me Alone Time'. I walked alone at the shore in the morning and afternoon, enjoying the fresh breeze of air, took photos of whatever catches my eye. Being at the beach makes me loosen up with all the chaos in reality and just simply indulge with all those wonderful views.

* We did go for island hopping and being on those places just makes me forget about reality.

* In the morning, that's the time when the water is lowest or more known as low tide, that's why you could see a lot of rocks.

* Before we went home, I had my walk in the afternoon while the sun is at it's hottest, I am loving how the sunlight touches my skin.

Wishing I could stay there for long...

SAN DIEGO CHARGERS

Time to relax and unwind together with my team. We've been planning this team building for like 3 weeks and finally, it happened. Last Friday, we went to the beach and savor the moment. Too bad, some were not able to come. Though we are not complete, all of us still manage to have fun and forget about chaos back at work.

It's also a little sad because some of them will be leaving, they'll be just under my supervision for a week then they'll be transferred to another line of business. That's how it goes, as they say, change is the only permanent thing that exists, especially with our work. But we'll all see each other, I am pretty sure, and we could still plan team buildings if they wish to. You guys would still be part of San Diego Chargers team and I would still love to call you Chargers. =)

I super love this team!

TAKE ME THERE

Will be away from reality for awhile.

That's all I need, 

though it's just for a little while.

=)

MISSING IT MUCH

I am badly craving to be at the beach! Just simply need the warm sun shiny day at the beach with the sound of the ocean and the feel of the breeze. Is that too much to ask? By the way, I don't know how to swim but I can't erase the fact that I would always love the beach. I could live there forever! That's why sometimes I wonder... maybe I am a fish, or a mermaid maybe on my past life. Hahaha! I am just so comfortable to be there. Watching the sun goes down and listening to the calming sound of waves. Missing it much!

BEACH THERAPY

 

I NEED THIS!

It's hard for me to put into words why I like the beach so much. 

Everything about it is renewing for me, almost like therapy.

AT THE BEACH

I know it's rainy season and all. But I am missing to be at the beach. Watching sunsets, quiet nights, calming sound of waves. How I miss those.

BACK TO WORK

Been on a 1 day leave from work and guess what? I kinda miss to work. LOL! Be back to work tonight and I'm sure there's a hell lot to do. Readying... bring it on!

The keyboard was so cute. =)
