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.

Manila Domestic Airport, 6:55AM

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! =)

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!

Wiley, you're looking for a Best Friend

There are many different ways to look at relationships, but for you, finding a best friend, the one person you share everything with, is the most important. Some people focus more on the romantic image of a soul mate to last the span of time, but you probably prefer the reality of making the most of every moment of every day. And who better to live those moments with than someone who's true blue through and through?

The ideal match for you is probably someone who can anticipate the next word out of your mouth and who laughs at the punch line before you even tell it. Chances are it's important to you that they'd expand your circle of friends, introduce you to new places, faces, and experiences, too. Whether this relationship is here for the short- or the long- term, you're a take-it-as-it-comes kind of person, with few expectations or fairytales to live up to. You'd take your constant companion and trusted secret-keeper over a fairy princess or Prince Charming, any day. Whether you realize it or not, there's someone out there who feels the same way about you. Like you, that someone is looking for the one person to be their best friend — both in the bedroom and out.

I'm actually fond in taking psychological exams on-line... http://www.tickle.com/ actually provides the most variety of psychological exams from serious stuff to lifestyle to probably even the most mundane things there is out there... here is one of the results I have had in one of the exams I took. this one is about my Romantic Fantasy

Wiley, it looks like your romantic fantasy is the Breakfast in Bed

There are few things better than waking up to the smell of hot coffee and sizzling bacon, especially when it's right under your nose. Ahh, breakfast in bed. It's more intimate than a candlelit dinner, yet as comfortable as an old pair of slippers.

Trusty sweethearts and reliable soul mates are the men of your dreams, not mysterious strangers from foreign lands. Whether it's cuddling next to a roaring fire, feeding each other pizza straight from the box, or gazing at the stars, your fantasy doesn't need to venture too far from reality. And that's cozy.

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!

As part of my daily routine in the office, I have to answer tons and tons of emails. But sometimes, if your inbox gets this much of emails, you would wish you have another job....

Don't get me wrong, I love my Job and I love it so much but man, if your inbox contains 3035 emails and 177 unread? man, that's a lot of emails..... =)

if you receive this much of emails everyday... i sometimes wonder if my day is consumed in just answering all these emails... but then again some emails may just end up in trash! hehehe =)

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!
