All hail to summer

There goes this itch to blog again. Sorry for the dormancy for almost half a year. Its been crazy (oh well whose life isn’t unless you live under a rock). And an early warning to those reading this trying to figure out the point of this entry, there’s just none. I think no one really makes a point until they’re six feet below the ground. Sorry but not sorry. So summer infestation is here. Its this time of the year when I get to spend all my hard earned cash during rainy days, get a subtle tan line (coz with my skin color its really hard to achieve that), get drunk (oh yes, forget the doctor’s advice and drink as much as alcohol as I can), watch sunset or sunrise, laugh to my heart’s content, travel, and try to drown myself swimming. So Iris and I came up with this 12 weeks of summer which supposed to kick off last March 2^nd but due to financial constraints we have to delay it to the following week. Its been three weeks since and we’re approaching the 4^th week and I can say its been really great, awesome even. I can’t explain how it made me feel energized to go to work and hurry to end the week. Broke or not we see to it that we do something out of the ordinary and make it memorable no matter how simple or nonsense it is. After all, we’ve been in and out of the hospital a few months ago so we have so much things to catch up on.

Week One of Twelve. Sumilon Island. Spent the weekend on this luxurious island resort where we enjoyed the sunrise, shifting sandbar, snorkeling, kayaking and trekking.

 

 

Week Two of Twelve. Acted silly with my coworkers and drank my heart out like a college student I cant imagine how I manage to walk my way home. Haha

 

 

 

 

Week Three of Twelve. Headed to the northernmost town in the province and took the banca to get to Malapascua Island. Soaked under the sun at Bounty Beach and had a taste of the island life.

I'll meet you there!

I am back home. No, I am just in the city not back in my hometown. Been a tiring two months since summer started and I know we haven't had half of it. I have been restless since March -- Baguio, Boracay, coupled with random beach trips on weekends and some barkada bonding over food and booze and a week-long of work. Man, I am superwoman. So I decided to take a day off of work tonight only to spend a total of 12 hours in the office earlier. It has been crazy -- at work, at home, at the beach and everywhere. I have just finished editing pics and currently uploading them on Facebook while Pink and Lana Del Rey alternately sing their heart out. Even my choice of music lately has been crazy. I've been more into pop and RnB which is so overrated (no offense people). I am not just the type who'd listen to what everybody else is listening into. I like poetry in my music. Something that would hit me bulls eye. 

Anyways, I remember I shouldn't be blogging at this very moment if Google did not email me about Legacy Migration. Of course, any sane person would be force to get up and turn that PC on if threatened about their blog being deleted. So yeah, I love this blog and I would fight it with my life. I hate it when blogsites update their pages and keeps on asking you to verify your account or email. Honestly, I can't keep up on it that is why I lost two blogs in the past. I'm just lazy, lazy and lazy. So the song playing in the PC right now is switching to the punk rock side and there goes Guns N Roses playing their hit Sweet Child O' Mine. It maybe old for teenagers nowadays but I've always been a sucker for the 70s and 80s music (except the love songs). I seldom appreciate a love song and if I do, I'd usually stick to it for years until I find another love song which is as good as the first one. And oh, Owl City's songs are love songs for me. I am so all over Adam Young and his creativity and every time I listen to his songs it creates a new feeling. Like I am feeding out of its melody and lyrics. And now my eyes are starting to water which means I am tired and I definitely need to hit the sack. So I will leave you all with this pic I experimented earlier inspired by Owl City's music and one of the things it makes me feel when I am listening to them. So I will meet you there when I close my tired eyes in a few minutes.

Of summer and blogging

I know I should have blogged this earlier or before it ever came but I was too overwhelmed when summer finally came and on weekends you no longer see me at the mall. Hell yes. I'm no longer breathing air from the air-conditioner on weekends, instead I am grasping for salty sea breeze. And yes, I still couldn't get enough. Aside from my recent discovery that Apple decided to have an app for Blogger, a good friend of mine, JK /gee-kee/ , encouraged me to continue blogging. Well yeah, sort of. I think what he really meant is to bring back my rantings on Twitter here. I kinda sorta thought of that too. Why should I limit myself with those 160 characters when I can write an entire page of trash here - my very own blog. So yeah, if you are reading this JK, feel my tight hug. ;)

And don't ask for pictures because I am too lazy to do it now, but hey! I got a this video made by JK from the recent barkada trip in Nalusuan Island in Mactan. Its interesting to know there are still tiny islands beyond Mactan. I've always thought those were just reefs that come out on low tides everytime we would fly over there. Well turns out its a community of islands that extends as far as the northern part of Bohol. Enjoy the video!

Current state of mind

It's hot. Well it's summer and there's barely a cloud above. All I can see is the blue sky, dusty road, traffic, motorists and everything that reminds me of this urban life. I wonder how long this summer could last. I'm hoping long after I'm all burned up frolicking under the sun, long after I learn to dive in a 20 feet deep water (which up to now still freaks me out), long after my bottle of sunblock runs out, long after I finish reading those three books, long after I'm done watching all episodes of Ancient Aliens, long after me and my friends gulped bottles of beer, long after, forever. I could only wish for the rainy days not to come and for this sun to shine as bright and as hot as it can. I wish could take a break for summer and just be all work during the rainy months. Well, I can only wish. :)
