A Weekend in Paradise

And there goes my weekend!

I started my weekend probably a little early… I started it Thursday, and I started it by a trip going to the Manila Domestic Airport and a flight going to Kalibo, Aklan. This weekend is my much awaited trip to Boracay Island. I am spending a weekend there with some former colleagues and good friends. I have heard a lot of good things about Boracay and I have been wanting to see its exquisite beauty, why so many people are drawn to its powdery like white sand.

We arrived at Kalibo International Airport a little past 8 in the morning and we are on time. Kudos to Cebu Pacific for a safe and on time flight. We hailed a van that would transport us to Tabon Port since the boats bound to Boracay island can not use Jetty Port because of the weather. And so my Boracay adventure began Thursday morning!

The trip would have been perfect except for "Cosme". He visited the Philippines in a less more appropriate timing, although it was not raining in Boracay, but the sun also eluded the island, and that being said, we just have to make the most of our weekend getaway. Occasional light rain showers but nevertheless, I have had a great time. Nothing beats a weekend in the beach.

as we look for our first lunch in Boracay, we head for D'Mall.


it was a long walk to Friday's so might as well make the most of it... STRIKE A POSE!

Chillin at Hey Jude!



It was one of the shortest long weekend I have ever had, if only we can stay a little longer... but we figured that the island is not going anywhere. My weekend was a blast! I wonder if I can share a weekend here with someone special, it would be nice for sure.

I am now back in the metro, and gone back to my old routine. As I face the daily challenges as a struggling yuppie, I can look forward to those weekends I'd be spending in Boracay! I will definitely come back soon! =)

My Last Rendezvous With Summer

Summer is almost over, in fact, here in the metro it's raining almost everyday, like as if its already the start of the rainy season. but that doesn't stop me from my last hurrah of summer!!

Summer is almost equivalent to the beach. When summertime comes, you can never miss out the beach because if you do, you might just be tagged as a LOSER! people would always want to go to the beach even once during summer... to get that natural tan that some if not most people are just crazy about... if you have that perfect tan line, you have got yourself the most "IN" fad in this time of the year. It's like a statement already... and if you have it, then flaunt it! *(",)*
Of course when we are talking about beaches, one name would always pop out! It's like beach = Boracay! As much as people are crazy about Bora, I have never been there! i really don't know why, maybe I get preoccupied with a lot of things... and maybe I like having the easier way to go to a beach and that would mean Puerto Galera! But this time, I have yet to end my ignorance in this so called paradise... i have yet to put an end to my being naive to such a wonderful place such as Boracay! With much enthusiasm and excitement... I will conquer Bora this weekend!



I can't wait to feel that powdery like sand of the Boracay Island and feel the heat of the arrogant sun...




or probably spend time under the sun to get my so called tan line...



so come Thursday, Bora... here I come!
