Guess who's back...back again...

Holla everyone, with the title post of my blog yes I am definitely back on blogging. As much as I wanted to share things that's going on with my life, time is my worst enemy and with that I guess up until now I need to learn how to keep up with my time management. As of keeping everyone updated in the cyber space, sorting photos will be 1st on my list so that I can share stories through it :) 

I'll see you soon! 

Header at its finest

Holla everyone! As you can see I changed my header. It's something that I am so proud of because Joyce made it for me and we both made collaborative effort to produce this master piece. I am so happy that she's getting addicted again to Photoshop which I can say is her edge in this competitive generation. Not only in Photoshop is she gifted but everything that you can think of when the word ARTS is brought up.

I know you can all see my header but I want to attach the image again... :)

Since I am talking about Joyce, I'll blog all her great artworks next time and it's for you to see how great she is in her field. :)

Up all night

A week ago, we headed over to Antipolo, to have a good summer night just before Angelle starts work and just before I start my OJT. We were all game for a night swimming, grilling bbqs, hotdogs and drinking all night at Loreland Antipolo.

Just because we had a good time we forgot to take photos of the place but if you want to check the place out, here is the website http://www.loreland.com.ph/

Here are few pictures we had during our overnight stay:

Me, Aleeza and Angelle chillin' at our room 

Lazy-ass :)

I love you Best friend :)

Our overnight stay made us cherish our friendship even more. Cheers to life time of friendship Angelle, CJ, Burd, Ampi and Papa Rox and of course to our baby that night Aleeza :)

Vanny's birthday bash

May 5th and we are all giddy because of Vanny's Birthday bash at Republiq. I personally, quit clubbing because of its "nakakasawa" factor and geez, I'm so not into wearing those deadly heels again but all for the love of friendship and because I missed dancing so crazy, we all had a good time dancing our hearts away in Republiq.

Since, it's an all nighter party, I headed over at Stacy's house to prep and of course bonding time :) After the yummy dinner at their house, Rocky (Stacy's boyfriend) fetched us in the house and we went to the nearest Bonappetea just outside their village. We stayed there for hours to talk about things mainly "the manly things" haha! After dozing ourselves with yummy milk tea's we headed home to prepare for the party.

Photo of us before heading out. Thanks Ate Juz for doing our make-up :)

Being the chic and the hottest driver Stacy was, we got there just in time to party. 

Since Vanny, the birthday girl is inlove with Techno beats she decided that we party on a Saturday. 

My lovely girls :) (Rina, Stace, Me, Gail, Keigh and Van) L-R

Though we are incomplete because Coco was not around to celebrate with us, We missed you! :)

Nesta, Me, Gail and Van 

The whole gang :)

Partying with those shades on. CRAZY! :)

Saturday on a high 

That night was crazy as hell, I missed my friends so much. :) and of course Happy Birthday Van. You know we all love you so much and we are always here no matter what. <3

My 48 hours of summer

 I promised to share with you good photo memories from my recent trip in Quezon so here it is. 

Okay, so being the South person that I am, I slept over at my best friend's house the night before we left for Lucena, but before that I went to Greenhills shopping center with Joyce for our last minute summer shopping. Since we are leaving pretty early we asked Sam, our friend to sleep over too so that no one will be late. So here it is, Sam came over that night at around 10-ish I guess and we all stayed up until it's time for us to get going and pack up.

April 25, this is it we are ready to go and make good memories together. At around 5:30, we are complete and the beautiful bus is all set to go...

On the way

Stop over (Franz, Angelle and me)

                                                  

After 5 hours on the road, we finally reached our destination. We waited for Ariane and we headed to their house in Lucena for a quick stop over before heading to Polo beach. 

We rented a jeepney

On the way 

The jeepney ride took us 1 hour and a half before reaching Polo Beach and this is where the epic trip started. Truly the famous line "Expect the Unexpected" came to life. Why? 

We need to cross this small body of water in order to get to the beach

Angelle, Ariane, Sam, Gwenn and Mil (1st batch) to cross

Boat ride with Franz, Jaimie, Joyce and Biboy

After the 5 minute boat ride, we have to trek for about 10-15 minutes. But what made the trekking part exciting is that it's high tide so we need to be careful just not to fall into the water.

Look at us :))

Trekking part 1

Trekking part 2

Here we go... 

After that adventure finally

Polo Beach

We are all speechless by the beauty of beach. We really had fun under the sun. We played frisbee and cards and of course booze time by the beach.

Enjoy the photos:

Me and my best friend, Angelle :)

Best friends, Biboy and Ariane

Hi there, Sam :)

Gwenn, Joyce and Jaimie 

Hello there, Joycie :)

<3

With the Lucena boy, Biboy

I seriously love the water :)

                                                  

Franz and Biboy tried cliff diving but we didn't get to take photos of them because we are so rattled and nervous but nonetheless, they made it! :)

What happens in Polo Beach stays in Polo Beach. Next stop: GRACELAND. 

Hollaaa! Grand Staircase :)

Nice interiors

Me, Ariane, Sam and Angelle :)

We rented two condo rooms because we are big in number.

Bonding over the tiger inspired couch 

Feels like home :)

We obviously had a good sleep together because they had comfy beds and lots of pillows :)

The morning after that night made us enjoy the company of each other more. We ate breakfast together and stroll around the country club and I tell you, the place is captivating. They offer plenty of activities that both families and friends would definitely enjoy. 

Biking

So we, rented bikes and enjoy the whole afternoon together. :) Me and Joyce also went to their playground and yes we felt like a kid once again :)

Hours after we freshen up and we are about to leave Quezon, it was a bittersweet feeling for all of us. We wanted to stay longer but we only booked for 2 days. 

Ariane, thank you so much for helping us out in Quezon. We owe you a lot. :) And thanks for letting  us appreciate the beauty of your place. Extend my regards to Biboy :)

Group photo, even though it's blurred thank you kuya for taking our photo :)

Goodbye, Quezon til we meet again :)

Definitely, we truly enjoyed our stay and truly had the best 48 hours of our Summer 2012.

All set to go...

After a long discussion with friends finally we are all set to go tomorrow for our summer trip :) Being the planner I've stressed myself out on finding a good deal and package for all of us. This includes a good destination and fitting our schedules so that no one will be left behind.

Okay, here's a photo on where we are heading tomorrow morning

Polo Beach, just grabbed the photo from Ariane, thanks! :)

Another photo from Ariane

We'll be leaving early tom and I promise to take good photo memories of my summer 2012 once I'm back :)

Hope you're all having a good summer. It's not too late to plan your summer destination. :)
