Bakit kasi mahilig magpaka-FPJ?

Why do we always put ourselves in helpless situations? Why do we want to take the long and strenuous road? Why do we love to get in a deep hole?

Why waste time and wait when it is almost over before we show some sort of desire? Why do we have a tendency of falling behind and at the last few moments that is when we get up and fight?

Instead, why not fight and give it our all right at the start?

Bakit kasi mahilig magpaka-FPJ? Pwede rin ERAP? Yung tipong magpapadehado muna at magpapalampos bago babawi at lalaban.

Then again, the reality is even if how hard we give it our 110% there is no guarantee of ending on top when everything is over.

Masakit man tanggapin pero ayun ang katotohanan.

What Happens After Office

First stop was a birthday dinner. Initially, the plan was to have it in an American restaurant. But due to the political situation of the country we ate in the land of seafoods. It was definitely a good decision! We arrived on time. Food came in non-stop. There was this soup with small calms, calamares, huge sweet and sour fish, sinigang na pla-pla, baked tahong, oysters, tempura and CRABS! Boy, I was so confused to which one to attack first. Knowing me, I am not the type of person who would mix and match various food all at the same time. I am this one at a time kind of person. I am not a playful person na pinagsasabay. There was period that I felt that I was being punished or they were preparing to "grill" me due to all the food available. Ang sarap!

Everything was perfect. Good food plus great company. I was with people whom I haven't spent time outside the office. Laugh trip. It made me wonder if the food was spiked! The best part was no so-called guilt afterwards since it was a Friday.

Side note:
After dinner, we walked around the area to make the food go down. This guy bought gum which he offered. He extended his hand and 3 boys got who was followed by 3 ladies. However, there were only 2 left. I guess hiya prevailed and the 3 ladies took 2 steps back. The this woman came out of nowhere and said.. akin nalang and got the gum who was followed by another lady subsequently. Lesson learned, hiya would bring you no where.

Next stop was this wine tasting event. Headed to Malate. The place was different. It was hidden in the midst of all the bars which gave it an exclusive and safe atmosphere. There were like 9 bottles. I got "schooled" on how to drink wine, how to slurp, how wines are processed and how to identify which is which. Yeah, I was feeling classy at that instant. Then again, it needs many many years to be a master of this craft.

There were many happy people around. Never ending singing and at times with matching dance number on the side. Probably the wine kicked in.

I did not want to leave yet but I had to since someone will make tampo. The last stop... Makati for this birthday bash / despidida. When I arrived, only one celebrant was left. Whoops. But it was all good. More drinks, more songs and more conversations. They are really a group who I can call family. Nakanaman.

So this is what happens after office on a Friday night.

Surfing USA

Went to La Union with (some) fellow Naghi people. We availed the Sufvivor thingie of this "not an agency but a lifestyle". It was alright. I know better now since I am not a newbie anymore. Anyway, Kuya Jojo was the best! It felt like our van flew!

First stopover was for a restroom break but I was soooo sleepy that I didnt care to find out where we were. Next was somewhere in Sison, Pangasinan at around 4am to eat and of course, restroom break. And guess who we saw? The sister of my officemate who had this field trip to Baguio for the Flower Festival. There is such thing pala? How come I never had that? Oh well.

Arrived way ahead of the bus... like wala pang araw sa La Union. So we slept in the van while we waited. Then there, the organizers arrived. Waited for the key so that we can deposit our stuff. Guess who we saw? The sister of my officemate again. Whatta! Who is following who?

Anyway, once we settled down, we ate, watched meet the spartans, frisbee, swam, surf, ate, surf, frisbee, chill sa beach, surf competiton, picturessss, sunset, kain, adventure sa paghanap ng ice, inom, maki-tipar, inom, picturessss.... fun fun fun!

It is always fun to travel with a kid around. There would not be any boring momment...
hindi ka na love ni tita...
hindi nagsasalita si tiger eh
nakalock yung room eh
hindi umiiyak ang boys eh

Saw one of my college teamamtes. She is living the life. Surfing every other week or soooo. That is what you call the beach life!

How come ice was nowhere to be found? Walked like a thousand miles but the refilling station was closed... passed by this house with a "Ice 4 Sale" plastered on its gate.. but it was still ice water. Great! We got some which was good for 3 litters. Thanks to the paawa look.

Drank alot.... one glass of bailey's, one glass of gin/sprite/four seasons, one bottle of SanMig Light, 2 bottles of Red Horse. Oh my, what happened to my one bottle limit for beer? Beach life kicked in eh. Haha.

Day 2... enjoy the beach, surf competition, solo surfing, midway grill, isdaan, nlex

All in all it was a fantastic trip! Chill, walang iniisip. Enjoy the company, experience something new, laugh, drink and be marry!

Why No Posts?

Is it because...
I do not have anything interesting to write about?
I do not have the luxury to blog inside the prison?
I do not have the time?

Or maybe...
I just do not want to "reflect" on the stuff that I am undergoing right now thus I distract myself with not so fulfilling matters such as sports-related stuff?


Crap. I need to put my so called life back together.

Whatever!
