so after 11 months of my cebu booking...

I'm finally boarding the plane. I got a super cheap deal for mine and b's tickets. So many things had happened then. When we were together we'd always tell each other how excited we were. He'd buy a guitar, and I'd eat authentic lechon cebu. Obviously we didn't last long enough to make it through. I just realized that this cebu trip was the longest that we planned on. I'm a sucker for medium to long term plans and I now it dawned on me that the best we could do was plan an out of town trip... And we couldn't even make it. Tsktsk... How about a lifetime? Certainly not happening. The check in clerks asked me to verify with him if he's really coming. I didn't want to but they insist that I do. Surprisingly he answered only to let me hear him getting drunk somewhere. Anyway, I've gotten more annoyed...

And fyi, this is the third month that we're officially over. So fuck it... Enough of all the pain... I've suffered long enough. It's no use letting him get more of my best because of memories. Jerks don't deserve a place in my heart and in my mind.

I'm meeting my fanily in a few hours and that's not a bad alternative. I'm still thankful that for his absence in major events of my life, much more people replace him.

I'm unloading my extra baggage. And I'm leaving it for good.

I'll post pics of the day when I come back. I'm just writing this on my bb. I wanted to let it out before I see the family. I'll have a very good time in cebu!!!

took this while i was kayaking at the halong bay. that guy was our local tour guide. i was kayaking with an american who just graduated from the university. it was a fun experience. we were paddling for a good half an hour or so until we reached a cave with super boring interior. the scenery and the tranquility that you get while traversing through the hills on water pretty much made up for the uselessness of that cave.

our group which we coined as PINOY SIKLISTA participated in the greenpeace annual car free biking event. it was suuuper fun!!! over 900 riders participated in the event and we really had a good time. we wore i <3 hk and i <3 green shirts and we put philippine flaglets on our bikes and we became one of photographers' favorite subjects! there were snapshots of us in greenpeace website, cnn i-report and china daily! woohoo! i really hope the government steps up and make the roads safer and more accessible for bikers.

im sooo tired today and my whole body is aching. we biked our hardest trail to date. we didn't go the usual bike route and we opted for a more difficult biking/hiking through the lantau mountains. damn, the paved area is so narrow that any wrong move can result to a fall on a mini cliff. it was only a good two or three hours but we repeatedly mounted and dismounted our bikes because the trail is just too steep. i would complain to that route when i hike... then picture it with a 13kg bike that you need to drag! waaahhh!!! anyway, it was fun challenge and we managed to finish the trail without anyone seriously getting hurt.


this photo is from one point of the trail which overlooks the airport. the planes you see there are the fedex cargo planes.


gotta sleep now. tomorrow we shall bike for the environment! :)

jenga!!!

i had lots of fun tonight!!! work was so shitty but the night made up for it. we ate at my favorite turkish resto and we played jenga!!! i like this game. it rattles everyone. it makes you focus and wish bad luck to the person that precedes you! really cool game.

then we went barhopping in tsim sha tsui, my first time to ever roam around kowloon bars in 4 yrs. damn! i was pulled out from the table and had to dance with the band with no one else dancing!!! shucks!!! i think i did well anyhow. i went there, so i might as well pull it off. then when we went to the next one, and there's this crazy white girl who keeps dancing with our group. she pulled me out and i had to dance with her. i was even able to kiss her on the cheeks while my friends were taking photos. and i didn't even get her name! i should not cut my hair anymore. i am not a lesbo, ok?! hahaha!
