Puerto Galera trip: A BLAST!

Mahabahaba ang entry na to...so...eheheh i segmented the whole entry

okay. so how do i start this...let's timeline the events...

sunday

2:30am: - I woke up. Barely having 2 hours of sleep because of so many thoughts popping up here and there, I wasn't feeling as tired as I had expected. Wonderful!! Took a bath. Then Went down to wait for the cab that my sister called for me. (For those interested. You can call a cab company or whatever you want to call it for their service. They'll go to your place then flag down the fare meter. But whatever the total, an extra charge of 50 pesos will be charged for the extra service.)

3:20am - The cab arrived and we went off to Philcoa Jollibee. I was supposed to meet up with Kiko, Nikki and Gabo there. But, let me just share this realization along the way. When we were at the QC circle right at the bank near the QC hall, I saw someone standing there. Erm, which I first thought was odd because where could he be going at this time...and then...some distance from where he was standing biglang dami na yung mga tumatayo and then I realized that...oo nga pala. Sa Q. Ave yung mga babae and QC circle is known to cater call boys. Ayun lang...Sobrang obvious yung situation pero walang ginagawang aksyon. Duh. Katapat lang ng QC hall...

4:00-6:30am - We arrived at the bus terminal, got on the bus that leaves at 4am for the Batangas port. Wow. Ang aga diba. An uneventful yet stressful bus ride came after. The music that they were playing was not soothing at all for restless travellers. The station that they were tuned into was loud and damn senseless. I think Kiko mentioned the station to be 91.5 or something...ah yun...basta yung Yes FM! Argh...Not my taste...not at all. Anyway, we arrived at the port and then...ayun...

7:00-8:50am - We rode on the boat (Si-Kat) heading for Puerto Galera...masaya yung ride somehow kasi parang welcome lobby ng mga hotel...you start feeling the excitement that the experiences at puerto could bring. astig...kahit nagstop over pa kami someplace dahil parang stop over dating...okay lang...masaya!!!

9:30am - We arrived at Puerto Galera!!!! WOHOOOO!!! Pero siyempre wala pa kaming place na mastayan...so may lumapit na sa amin offering to help us find a room to stay in...yes game kami because the help was needed na rin naman...there...yung first room na nakita namin...ang baba ng rate na inoffer...we opted for the fan room because we didnt need the aircon one. We wouldnt be staying cooped up in the room anyway...So...after going to 2 places...we chose the first one and got it for a measly price of 700pesos!!! WOW diba...ang mura lang...pero kapag peak season nasa mga 1500 na yan...astig talaga! ehhehe buti nalang sunday kami napadpad...and buti nalang yung mga factors that caused the delay of the trip baka form of blessing na rin yun.. haay...okay...now for the experience that we had.

During the trip...I'll stop the timeline thingie now...ehehehe I didnt have a watch with me...all I could say was that, it was a good thing na alam ko basahin yung oras using the sun's position in the sky ehehhe...

anyway...what happened in puerto?

First off, when we arrived, we searched the place erm sort of familiarization of where this and that is. So we basically made ourselves comfortable with the place. With that over with, ayun na! start sun bathing! We walked the distance sa may less crowded part ng stretch ng beach kasi we wanted naman din to keep to our privacy and give them theirs. (Ang laki laki ng beach and off peak so hindi sobrang daming tao and makikisiksik ka diba...duh...) Damn. Ang sarap nung feeling ng water. Sobrang relaxing! And the sun kahit patago tago paminsan ang sarap din humiga sa sikat niya eheheheh...sabi ko nga kay nikki, ang sarap i enjoy kasi dito mo lang talaga menjoy yung araw na ganyan...kung asa UP kami napapamura nalang erm...sila (ehehe napaisip ako kung napamura na ba ako...) dahil sa sobrang init. (BRB. kain dinner.) Okay...so, ehehehe nalimot ko na ikwento ko. Ayun...so sunbathing sobrang saya...pero kakapagod din pala magrelax...It was just the best feeling. All your troubles seem so far away...Actually, wala akong iniisip na problema during those times that I was enjoying the sun...problems...were to be discussed later on...under the stars naman...hehehe padrama effect.

So, getting to the issue of food. We really saved a lot of money!!! We brought canned goods kaya order nalang kami ng race sa isang establishment/resto/bar. Heheheh, at first nakakahiya pa kasi naglakad pa kami papunta run malapit lapit din naman...hehehe pero for those sa mga hindi sa akin nakakakilala...bringing mga delata and walking on the beach...erm...there was just something wrong. But I got over it when I learned that marami rin naman pala ang gumagawa nun...IN FACT, may nakatabi kami na ganun din ang ginawa ehehehhe...

So, as you may have already noticed...Nahihirapan na ako to put the events into words. Sabog sabog na at wala ng consolidation yung flow of thought ehehhe..pero..ayun na nga lang. nag swimming nag sun bathe at nang dumating ang time na pagod na kami and we want to head back...actually, we were supposed to eat halo halo...I was one of the people who took a shower kasi prepare na rin for the events that we were hoping to experience sa gabi na...pero...instead of making it to the halo halo retailers (ehehhe sorry for the term) napahiga ako sa kama and nakatulog!!!!

pero segue ko muna to for those interested:

During yung time na nakatulog ako...I was in COMMANDO MODE!!! F*ck talaga yung initial reaction ko when I realized after taking a shower that...Yung nakalagay sa bag ko na isa pang extra underwear...Ginamit ko last week kasi isa yun sa mga fave undies ko ehehehhe...(walang sense pero kasi pag sa bench body ka bumibili ng undies and yung iba may design and iba iba yung feel, magkakafave ka talaga...ahahahha <-siyempre kinuwento ko pa.) kaya ayun!!! ISA LANG BAON KONG UNDERWEAR! ang since kakagaling lang namin sa swimming sa beach...basa na yung isa kong undie...so...finding the resolution. I was able to pull myself together. ehhehe...buti nalang yung isa kong shorts na baon na sana pangswimming, may inline na sort of whatever material it was pero parang cotton sa loob...so parang built in brief datin niya for those who can't quite realize. eheheh...So for the rest of the stay in Puero...I was in commando. Pag-alis nalang namin ginamit ko yung brief na baon. hahahaha.

When I woke up...naku! tapos na yung sunset!!! nyek...kainis naman kasi eh...lahat sila nagsitulugan na rin. Guys sorry talaga ehehhe nahawa kayo sa aking pagod and antok na nafeel ko lang when I decided to lie down and wait for everyone to finish preparing...haay...sarap ng siesta...pero yung sunset din sayang...oh well...I've been to puerto naman before and got to see the sunset...sunrise lang hindi pa.

Anyway, after na nga nun and bumangon na ang mga patay sa pagod...Ayan na...nagkayayaan na lumabas...Prepare to eat dinner na kami...pero siyempre...bago rin pala tong mga nangyari na ito...nag shot na rin kami bago kami nag swimming...TANDUAY WHITE mixed with something limey and citrusy...so...ayun nga...bago kami kain ng dinner by then...nag shot muna yung ilan sa amin...and binaon na ang mga delata sa plastic and sinama yung tanduay white mix...pag dating kina BRIAN (yun din yung place saan kami nag lunch...<-bait ni Ate Rose talaga. May appeal pa...maganda eh...pero...ehehhe maganda pero di ko type...) bukas na kami ng mga delata at kumain na...then siyempre...dahil gusto rin namin maghalo halo...ayun order naman kami...wow ang sarap. eheheh I used the halo halo as chaser. Mas tumapang yung flavor and ang init ng pagdaan sa lalamunan ehhehe baka dahil fresh mix palang yung mga unang shots hehehe...so ayun...ang sarap...then after we ate...we headed for the sands to lie down and stargaze...haay...and dun...CONVERSATION.PRIVATE.

basta...for my case nalang ang sabihin ko pero pahapyaw lang...I can finally say that I can conclude that I will or possibly have been able to move on already. It's easier to move on once you've opened up. Grabe. Ang hirap ilabas nung mga yun ah...pero ngayong nailabas na and wala ng lalabas pa sa mga hindi nakasama...thank God...Confessions of somebody who wants to be or rather doesnt want to be. (<- sorry sa mga hindi makakagets. personal. private. sa amin amin lang...)

after talking...we decided to go to a bar and continue the party!!! wooohoo!! inubos kasi ni Gabo yung Tanduay White mix na rhum...haay...By now siguro nakaka 12 or mga basta 10-15 shots palang ako...and...yung pagiging tipsy ko...wala na...so order kami ng specialty ng Mikko's bar...sabi Mindoro Sling! Wow!!! Putek. Ang sarap! Fruity pero may sort of flash ng lasa ng alcohol....eheheh may apple rin dun...akala ko una chaser...presentation lang pala...ehhehe...ayun...maganda na music by then...pero di pa kami tipsy...so order kami...tawag namin yung transvestite (sorry...for a lack of better term...<-walang discrimination whatsoever yan....) waitress...order kami ng LONG ISLAND ICED TEA!! Shit! Pangalawang sip ko palang...may tama agad. hehehe...ang lakas nga ng tama! Pero masarap...

Ayun...so from mga 11-1 sayaw sayaw kaming apat. Grabe! enjoy sobra!! May tatlo akong type na nakita! Shit pero taken yung isa ng foreigner yung isa mukhang taken din yung isa...halatang taken pda palang eh...Shit sayaw sayaw! Ang astig nung isa sa mga type ko magpandanggo (hmm...eto yung sabi ni gabo na tawag dun eh). Nakaskirt pa na almost mini na erm...ano ba tawag dun...ruffles (tama ba spelling...kasi parang food yan yung isip ko eh.) ang astig talaga...whew! kapagod. sobrang napawisan ako run sa kakasayaw na yun. Shit talaga...Club dancing...sa december nga...after ng engg week eh...baka magplan din ako ehehhehe...sana mas maraming game. So...by mga 1 pm...sila gabo and kiko...pagod na kaya nauna na sila...pinaiwan nalang namin na bukas yung door...kami nila nikki, sayaw sayaw pa...hanggang mga 2...Shit talaga! Ang lakas ng tama nung gabi/umaga na yun! The best yung Long Island Iced Tea (cocktail drink pala rin to eheheh...dapat sana magvodka ice/cruiser kami pero...mas malakas daw tama nung long island iced tea eh...eh di ayun na eheheh)...

hmm...marami akong hindi na nakwento pero ehhehe ayun na...that's the most exciting part of my puerto experience...hmm...Shit.narealize ko lang...sana di ko hanap hanapin yun sa second sem, clubbing/party...for one thing...wala na akong dinadalang emotional baggage eh...kaya...(speech: "putek ka boy. saan ka pupulutin ngayon?!" ahahahha. personal joke.) dapat masira na ang trend na pangit mga second sem ko.

Ayun nga rin pala...when I awoke...whew...wala akong hangover! naastigan talaga ako and nabilib...pero medyo may rash sa leeg kasi hmmm...ganun talaga effect ng alcohol eh...not totally used to pa yung body ko...plus suot ko rin kasi yung necklace or whatever para madala ko yung wallet ko. so hmm...ayun na...we stayed there bili ng mga souveneir...sorry di lahat kayo mabibigyan ko...looooow budget. gusto ko lang kasi talaga mag save for the december ehehehhe i anticipate.

1. I had about 10-15 shots of Tanduay White premium rhum mix (citrus/lime). Nikki and I shared Mindoro Sling as well as the Long Island Iced Tea.
2. Spent about 1400 for the whole trip. Oh...diba...sulit...kaya next time...sumama na kayo! off peak tayo punta then mas masaya kasi enjoy tayong lahat.
3. I really had the best time. More so because I shared the emotional baggage that I have been talking about since.
4. I am ready for the second sem...in fact...right now...there's a tingle of excitement inside me...gusto ko na mag reg bukas.
5. Siyempre...di ko na kailangan i kwento pero of course...I indulge myself with one of my vices during the whole stay there...so...that would mean...hmm...kung sinabi ko gaano karami yung nainom ko...let's say...mga 21sticks +/- 3. eheheh so that would be 18/24.
6. Ano pa bang pwedeng maisip na ilagay rito sa summary...
7. The experience was very enriching...I learned a lot from the people I was with. I really hope na yung iba ko pang gustong kasama makasama...
8. I officially don't prefer drinking beer. I'd prepare cocktail drinks or mga shot shot style...beer...erm...no thanks. Why? Pag beer kasi sa akin..parang...yuck...ayun lang...kasi parang mabigat din sa tiyan yung feeling...i know mas mura yung beer...siguro yun nalang yung last resort...pero I'd still prefer shots tsaka cocktail drinks.
9. siguro by the next time I drink...okay na ehehe walang after effects. Pero, let me clarify that I drank those things not because I had problems na sobrang bigat kasi wala during those times...I drank because I wanted to. I wanted to have fun. ehehehe...

haay...kapagod yung trip...party boy signing off eheheheh...

joke lang yung party boy. pangit yung connotation. ehehe parang yung sa JackAss na stint din...party boy eehehhehe...

sige...pahinga na ako...may Physics103 pa nakailangan asikasuhin tomorrow....damn naman kasi eh...wala pa sa CRS
