Not A Love Story: Memories

Do you know what the first thing that came into my mind was when I first saw you? Shit. As in sobrang shit. "Shit hes hot", "shit hes so nice", "shit ang gulo niya", "shit asan siya".

I cannot promise you that I'll always agree with you. I can't promise that there will be no fights. I can't promise you that I'll be the same girl that you first met.

What I can promise you, though, is freedom. Freedom to express yourself, to be who you truly are. Freedom to make decisions for yourself and me, but only under the circumstances that they are ethical. Freedom to get mad at me when you know that I've done something wrong. Freedom to love and freedom to decide how to go about it.

The world is a big place, babe. It was you who taught me how to soar so that I can see the world below me. It was you who taught me how to fly so that I can reach my dreams. Lastly, it was you who taught me how to land so that I won't go crashing down to earth, broken and lifeless.

With you, I feel right. With you, I am safe. With you, I am free. With you, I am loved.

Thank you.

Recalculating: Zambales Vacation with the Crew

 

The crew and I were invited to go to Zambales by Robert for his 21st birthday. Obviously, how could we say no, right? A night of food, booze, the sand, surfing, etc. Shit was perfect.

Until we found out that it was on the night of the INC (Iglesia ni Cristo) centennial.

It took us an added 3 hours to get to Zambales. You can imagine the stress that Pong (he drove) had to go through. Being the good best friend, I stayed awake for the whole trip. We were lucky enough to be on the leftmost side so some LGOs signalled us to move to the other lane (note: counterflow) if we weren't heading to the Philippine Arena. They opened up a whole lane for the non-INC people. Thank you, LGOs. Huhu.

Honestly, I'm not saying that its the INC's fault. Neither am I judging them because I have a few friends who are INC. I just want to point out that not all people in this country are INC and if you could please just be a little bit considerate of the people who are NOT heading the the Philippine Arena, that would be great.

Mandatory Traffic selfie with Pong and Mari (back)

It was a friggin long trip so we decided to stop over at the nearest gas station to eat. AS USUAL, I"m not in the picture because I took the picture. Huhu.

When we got to Zambales, we just slept. We didn't reach ANYTHING anymore. Here's the crew eating breakfast because yes.

Ugh what a wonderful scenery (minus my feet). I've always loved going to beaches. In my normally fast paced environment, it's nice to get out of town and just chill.

The cutest couple EVER. Hi Myk and Ja. When you two get married, I'll do your prenup photos, okay?

The boys doing boy things.

Aaaand mandatory group shot before we left Zambales.

We stopped over at Subic to eat.

Waldo and the crew says "Thank you for reading! 'Til next time!"
