1. Much happier when busy.

    My plate is so full that I tend to put things off until the last minute, which means I am always working under pressure and on a tight deadline as well as hospital duties. Then there’s Foundation week, were we should devote our time on resting and seeking adventure. We should visit the school’s fair, but turmoil is inevitable. We’re involuntarily delegated for an eight hour duty for 2 days at the fair, strictly monitored by our instructors.

    On the positive side, our college succeeded the Lasallian Cup as Over all winners, I played scrabble at inter college and placed. Here’s my sneaky shoot while on duty:

  2. Travel Factor at Five

    I am very lucky to join travel factors’ party at Blue Onion, Eastwood City last week. It was really a blast. Meeting the pioneer of this no. 1 travel/adventure agency in the Philippines is really an unforgettable one plus other adventurers and hikers from different parts of the globe. Then I left the place before turning into a werewolf, that’s probably 12.

    Very much excited to join one of their trips before or right after graduation.Launching.

  4. Conquer Sagada: Day Two

    Second day, I am still at plethora. At 4am we are bounded to Kiltepan Peak to witness the sunrise. Standing for 20 mins in the middle of freezing mountain top is no joke. Haha Then trekking at Aguid Village and swimming at Bomod-ok Falls. 5 p.m. at Lake Danum for sunset then annual Bonfire festival at the top of Sumaguing Cave *we’re so lucky that we attended this for we enjoyed non stop entertainment from the locals and tourists around the world, unlimited food and wines.

    A tour would offer tourists with good hiking work out, a swim at the base of the fall and a magnificent view of the AguidRice Terraces. This is the only spot I encourage visitors to hire vehicles due to a limited time most tourists visit Sagada.

  5. Conquer Sagada: Day One

    I travelled a couple of weeks ago at Sagada to seek some adventure that Mountain Province has to offer *where exciting activities are bold. 14 hours of trip is long and tiring, plus the stirs and road bumps but the time I saw my room at Alibama Inn- it compensated my strain. Then after 30mins we headed up to Lumiang Cave and Sumaguing, the most wonderful caves I’ve seen *including the caves I’ve seen in t.v. LOL 

     *I really don’t know how to my story precisely coz upon writing this, thoughts are flooding my mind and I am overjoyed upon reminiscing my moments at Sagada. here are the photos:

    -Sumaguing Cave-

    Easy as it may seem, it won’t be for first timers, as it will involve butt scratching, thigh aching, body freezing, two hours grueling and exhausting hours.

    After the tunnel in the swimming pool, swim if you want and look around, you could find some fossilized sea shells embedded on rocks. Well, that is the end of the descent, going out would be all ascending. But don’t worry, you will not go through the tunnel passage again, there’s an easier way out.

    <Behind all these, is an achievement you will never forget>

    My New Year started without a burnished New Year’s Vibe. I set goals on a regular basis. I just need to assure that my goals this year is S.M.A.R.T-Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic and Time-Bound. There are no difficulties on keeping most of my old resolutions. I think the buzz I get from looking forward to a change in lifestyle, a new way of thinking, invites me to start the year with a super positive outlook. Plus it’s a lot of fun.

    -travel and leisure, haha

    -work-out and avoid protruding beer belly.

    -learn to control budget breakdowns

    -want to learn a new language, culture and something productive

    *please!

    -provided this does not encourage them to take up more of my time.

    -be thrifty

    -be eco-friendly and maximize resourcers

    -fix problems immediately

  9. Year-end Excursion

    Sonya’s Garden is a little bit hard to locate when you are driving from the west side(from Canyon woods) coz the signage is facing the east, so you better ask the locales first.We arrived as early as 8:15 a.m. for breakfast (while my camera is charging).They served breads with different dips, pestos and mushroom pastes. Very important note: make a reservation at Sonya’s before actually goin there.

    (Long sleeves from Forever 21, Topman pants and boat shoes from Happy feet)

    Additional getaways: Perfect view (lunch), Mushroom burger and their short circuits LOL then Atc.
