Was Out On Weekends...

Subic Weekend Getaway



ako ang totoong Mowdel dito


After a month of anxiously planning the trip, and a month after booking Jon too, we pushed through with our out-of-town trip to Subic. It was fun amidst the frustrating downpour... harsh! gusto ko pa naman magka-tan lines! Almost everyone who're supposed to come was there. Tsok wasn't able to join though. And guess what! Where is Jonathan??? Texted him in the morning and lunchtime but I got no answer. We slept while waiting for him and when I woke up at around 7:30pm, I had 2 missed calls. Prior to seeing his name, I knew it was him. And I thought, "That's it! I'm not going to speak with him anymore!!!" I'd rather deal with people being late than not coming at all. Tin-Tin had spoken with Jon while the rest of us were asleep and it turns out, he has a valid reason. At 9pm, he texted me to say sorry and ask for pasalubong...kaya eh hehe.

So we spent the entire weekend eating, taking pictures, shopping, and chatting about Jon. In short, "buhay baboy". Just the fact that my friends were there - Bel, Tin, Garv and Ayn - makes it fun, regardless of the weather.

"O, kita nyo naman tuloy ah... shempre ako nag-plano eh!"





Christine's Magnificent Send Off

We had a crazy party at Christine's place last Saturday. She's going to leave in 2 weeks for Fairbanks, Alaska where she'll be settling down with her fiance, Chad. So we had a super fun three-themed party (Bridal Shower, Birthday and Christmas). It was also emotional. Everyone, except for Christine, was crying even at the start of it. Christine, as appreciative as she is, definitely loved the surprise. Her favorite part of it was the scrapbook gift.

After the party, we went to Alabang Town Center and shopped a bit, and then had a great dinner at Skyline Vivere, overlooking Alabang and Laguna de Bay - simply the best!



Vivere


Afterwards, we stayed overnight at Karen Yu's place in Makiling Greenheights, Calamba, Laguna. She's got a really nice place and a spectacular view of the mountain. We strolled around the village with Christine, Mama Bhey and Josie. The houses there are gorgeous - cottages, country style houses, victorian, etc. And houses there don't have numbers. They got names.

At 10:45am, we went swimming -- wiiiii! At long last! Tan lines!!!! But it rained too after about an hour of sunshine but it's OK. And it's my first time to wear a swim suit :oP can you believe that? We left for Manila at 4pm. I was riding with Bambi, Christine and Liza. We were chatting non-stop. Mother Goose is so much fun to be with. She's really cool and she's easy to please. If she's a really nice boss, she so much nicer as a friend. We're going to miss her a lot.
