So how was my NOT SO HAPPY Christmas?

Tuesday, December 25, 2007

Well how about that.... almost a whole month of unblogging and now I'm back with a vengeance!! Let's start on discussing the whole December okay? ^_^

After the beautiful ANAWANGIN BAY trip I had with my office mates, I went on to celebrate my birthday with friends and family. We went out and drank a few KEG's of draft beer....pigged out on food from every restaurant in morato... literally... and I ran here and there to make it back to work and appear normal to people here...sheesh.....My birthday was not unusual...it was just that boring if you ask me...The only gift I received was a day from my best friend in college... I went there to visit...and get in touch with my so called second family there....and then "you know what from my girlfriend" ^_^ heheh.... I love my wifey... IM SOO MUCH INLOVE WITH MY WIFEY!! Hayyy... but I aint gonna get married soon... I hope...heheh...

I plan to celebrate my birthday on a different day... well I have no plans yet but that is in the works I guess... ^_^. In the office, we just had our annual Christmas Party...I think that was nice coz I won something.... Performer of the Year award..so that was a whopping 5k huh?! Ehehe.....but all my dreams were shattered.... because as much as I earned this Christmas, it all went down the drain coz I got our house repaired, painted and everything else my Dad want's to do with it...sheesh.... I thought I could save a lot this season but DANG! I was so wrong...sheesh..... oh well...that was it...I couldn't do anything about it.....Glug glug glug (toilet noise)...but overall the party was nice....and I was at home...coz I was already emo even when they started that thang!


Now on to the days after that... I got my skeds fixed specifically so I could spend the weekend at Tagaytay...to get together with the Torres clan... I had a blast! Lotsa lechon! ahahahah...and dang that restaurant had the best lechon sauce too! ^_^ EAT EAT EAT...goodluck to my diet again! heheh........now I'm sick....spent my Christmas with biogesic, neozep and ampicin 500... I dont want to get sick...almost a few days only for my perfect attendance! weee!!! Lotsa money means more happiness!! heheheh...now who say's money can't buy happiness??? That we have to see ^_^ Till my next blog alrighty???

I can die now.... Yes ladies and germs... I can die now....

One of my most admired people in the face of the planet was just beside me... Buddy Zabala.

EHEADS or not...I still admire them...

During one of THE DAWN's latest stint in Eastwood City, my mates and I went down just to see a glimpse of the guys...not knowing something this big could eventually happen...big for me that is... well... if you don't like him I strongly advise you stay away from me or else I'll rip you into pieces.. hahah....


Of course I know that I dont look good right now...It's sunburn!! how could I have been ever so stupid!! Sheesh!! I don't look good in tan....arghhh!!!

Back to the basics: The story behind our Team Building in Anawangin Bay

Sunday, December 09, 2007

It was long OVERDUE... we were all exited about this event since we were all slumped behind deadlines and paperworks the whole year... this was the only time we get to spend together as a team somewhere remote other than just behind our 7 computer stations in the office... The date was set November 25-26..but of course we had to cancel it because of bad weather...go out and figure almost 3 Typhoons to stop us!!!

So we had to cancel that trip...all hell breaks loose... but Robbie the persistent one eyed the next week December 2 to replace this on our books.... if we didn't go now...we might not even go there at all...and so we did!

I was dead tired... I woke up at around 8 and spent the whole night partying out with friends in Malate, Timog-Morato Area.... drank and spanked some booties of some unknown bitches we usually go out with...but that's a totally different story (which would probably contain FUBU'S and PMS's hahah!)...no one can really stop me...so back to the story...I waited a few hours then headed onto the bus station in Victory Liner Cubao since call time was 5AM...I was there at 4:45...when my Dad dropped me off, Ms. Jhay our lovely manager and Vince (together with Jen which later I found out was his GF obviously) was there...I thought I was late or sumthin but mind you Robbie was no where to be found... YES LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.... he was LATE!!!

Well it was okay, we planned to go ahead without him (on some notions) since we were wasting time at the station instead of traveling...but there were no buses that would take us straight into Zambales. When he arrived we took Olongapo so we could save time... and so we did.....

When we arrived at Olongapo, I was worried I would fall short of money but OMG there were no ATM's around!!! Broken and offline!! All 4 of them on that city!!! JesuCristi!!!!

But it's okay, I think I spent about a few thousand bucks on this trip (which I had on my wallet thank God!!!) and that was sufficient already and everybody told me not to worry about it too much... and so I did... =)


When we got there (Zambales town proper), it was dead hot...so I wasn't expecting too much of the place since I don't really like swimming or beaches at all... after going to the market and Robbie with Ms. Jhay buying stuff for out dinner, we rode 2 tricycles and went to the port to get to the island...but before we did we ate lunch first....

Lunch was consisted of menudo, dinuguan and chop suey...I was hesitant to eat the dinuguan but after a few bites, it was all I was eating out of my plate...So after that and a few bottles of POP cola...I was exited to go hiking with everybody... so instead of going through the easy way of going there by boat...we all headed to the mountains and started trekking... approximately they had 4hours estimate of climbing but OMG...this was the start of a grueling 6 hour climb, bouldering and hard realization that it was NOT SO MUCH of a FUN CLIMB as everyone was telling me....sheesh!!!

So we walked...and walked... and walked some more... if you see in this picture the mountains on the back....I never knew we had to go over that on it's right side and still walk a long way down...whatta fun hike!! whatta fun!!! (sarcastically)
And so it was Christmas time already when we got there...it was a reaaaaaaly long hike....no let me rephrase that... It was a REAAAAAAAAAALY LONGGGG hike....which I underestimated at most...sheesh...I've been hiking since I was a kid and scouting was a luxury...but this one was SOOOOO LOOOONG!!!!

It was not only long, it was so damn painful after a few hours...the guide was misleading...he was taking it easy, and in the beginning I was even right behind him but looking back I was just using adrenaline already....hayyy....I'll try to tell you the rest of the story later... its taking me too long to tell you stories like these so I'll just update this later ayt?!
