Here are additional photos from my very first set of films processed using my Holga 120CFN:

in a world of strangers, it's nice to have someone by your side...

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! =)

Back in my previous company I basically have all the access in internet except Friendster. yep that's correct, except friendster, I have access to Myspace, Multiply, downelink, and what have you's but of course i don't have G4M.

I transferred companies September last year, and ironic as it may seem, I don't have access to everything but friendster! Yes! You got it right, the only thing I can access here in the office is friendster and take note, Yahoo! =) so much as i want to update my other networking sites, I can only update them at home.

hehehe, my multiply site used to be my most updated networking site before, but with these recent changes in my internet life... i have come to enjoy friendster again... =)

and as everyone who has friendster.... here's my featured friends... my beloved aristocrata! =P Friendster has served it purpose to me these past few months and that is to keep in touch with long last colleagues, highschool friends and even long lost friends...

it also made me updated with friends i hardly see and meet... friends I can't talk to all the time!

I make it a point that when this time of the year comes I always try to look back the past year. I try to reminisce what had happened, how was the year to me and how it made me who I am now.

The past year for me has been eventful, but for the most part... fruitful and very liberating.

A friend and I watched a movie yesterday night. Last full show in Powerplant Mall, and the movie ended at about 11:30PM. It was a feel good movie, lots of kilig scenes and that it made me feel good. it made me feel that everything is going to be fine....

"it's not enough that you love me for who I am, but you should also love me for who I am not"

and as I welcome another year to my so called "crazy life" I thank everyone who has been a part of it... the whole 24 years of it!

I need not mention your names one by one... but you know who you are... i just want to let all of you know that you've been a part of me and that you will always be a part of whoever I will become...

Cheers!

i got a private message from a very dear friend giving me this link....

and she simply said: for you bebe! love you mwah!!!

here's the lyrics of the song...

HmmWhoaaa
OohhhYeahh

You Said It Wasn't
Gonna Be Like It Was Before
Then It Happened Again
Pushing Me Back Out The Door
Thought It Would Be Forreal This Time
Love Me Forget About The Signs
So Now What Do I DoNow,
That I Know That We're Through

Wish That I Could Move On
Can't Let Go, It's Too Strong
Just Like That And Then You're Gone
Is This How You Wanted It To Be
Everything You Had To Say
Sent The Tears Right Down My Face
Now I'm Trying To EscapeThe Misery

Why Don't You Love Me
The Way I Loved You
It Feels So Crazy
Cause I Dunno What I Did To You
If You're Gonna Hurt Me
Then Do It Quickly
Cause I'm Tired Of Cryin
If You Don't Wanna Stick Around
Then, Baby, Forget About Me

Too Late, Sorry
I Didn't Even Have The Chance
You Said You Were Happy
Baby, I Don't Understand
Gave You Everything You Asked For
And Was Ready To Give A Lot More
I Would've Given The World
Right In The Palm Of Your Hand

Wish That I Could Move On
Can't Let Go, It's Too Strong
Just Like That And Then You're Gone
Is This How You Wanted It To Be
Everything You Had To Say
Sent The Tears Right Down My Face
Now I'm Trying To EscapeThe Misery

Why Don't You Love Me
The Way I Loved You
It Feels So Crazy
Cause I Dunno What I Did To You
If You're Gonna Hurt Me
Then Do It Quickly
Cause I'm Tired Of Cryin
If You Don't Wanna Stick Around
Then, Baby, Forget About Me

Boy, My Heart Was True
And That You Can't Deny
Don't Be A Fool
And Walk Away From All The Lies
It's Up To You
Cause Heaven Knows I've Tried
Tell Me You're Still In Love

Yeahhhh Ohh
Why Don't You Love Me
The Way I Loved You
It Feels So Crazy
Cause I Dunno What I Did To You
If You're Gonna Hurt Me
Then Do It Quickly
Cause I'm Tired Of Cryin
If You Don't Wanna Stick Around
Then, Baby, Forget About Me
Forget About Me...
Forgett about me..
Oh... baby oh...

I could say that 2007 was the year where I learned alot the most... it did taught me a lot of things and about life in general...

2007, I can say is both good and harsh to me...

given me things I can barely grasp with my own two hands...

let me feel emotions that I can hardly contain...

gave me experiences beyond my wildest imaginations...

things that left me dumbfounded...

good thing is that I have some friends who kept me grounded and sane, a family who kept my feet firmly placed on the ground... people who never failed to remind me my rightful place in this urban jungle....

as I bid goodbye the year that was... let me face the new year head on...
