TRIP TO PHILIPPINES
its was funfunfun! the locals liek people with fair skin(some said i was prettyXD obviously i am pretty;D) but i came back chao tah. lols. WARNING: THIS POST IS GONNA BE LONGGGG.
DAY 1(THURS)
left from home to go to the airport for the midnight flight. the ride seemed like eternity okay. reached airport. waited to check in for like 2hrs:O i wasnt expecting that. so i jus stood there stoning at the person infront of me. haha. finally after clearing all the checkpoints and everything, we finally boarded the plane! so exciting! i havent sat on a aeroplane since i was uhh 6?7? or was it 8? nvm around that age. yeah. after the super fun take off i slept throughout the whole ride. they served like instant noodles on the plane-.- arrived at 4+am by the time we went through customs and took out luggages it was 5 alr. and you see, in the philippines at 5am it is like our 7am so its like morning. meet aunty rose's nephews and kuning. went to ChowKing for breakfast. its like some chinese fast food restaurant. lols. the food tasted okay ONLY. after breakfast we went to buy PANDESAL! my fav. its like normal bread but its oven baked and tastes so much NICER than normal ones. Went to collect the big box that aunty rose sent. waited for so long and finally the bus for the box came and whoosh it was gone! so we travelled the whole night.
DAY 2(FRI)
woke up from car. i dint sleep that well. i kept slamming my head on the car side. tskk. reached some town and had breakfast. then went to Tagaytay(ta-ga-e-tai)flowers there are beautiful! seriously. and we visited some minii zoo. woah this is the best part man. there were baby tiger cubs tied to a pole and u could like go and touch them and you could also take pictures with the tigers. obviously i dint. but now i sorta regret it. tsk. saw other animals. left the place and continued with the long ride to cagayan valley. it takes like 12 hours to get there. ate jollibee for dinner. so bonamin(sp?) some pill that keeps you from vommiting. and my head continued slamming on the car side. had a midnight break at a small town. it was freezing there.
DAY 3(SAT)
ARRIVED AT CAGAYAN VALLEY , STA ANA, ST VINCENTE! wheee~ there was many people there waiting to greet us. meet many new people. ate lunch. had nothing to do cos i dint know how to converse with the many children there. i stoned until i fell asleep. woke up had my bath, ate dinner and slept AGAIN. the time there is so slow moving.
DAY 4(SUN)
ate biscuits for breakfast! they dont make coffee or tea there btw, its all 3-in-1 mix packets.lol. went to beach! took the boat. I TELL YOU THE VIEW AND THE SEA WATER IS BREATHTAKING! u can practically see through the water! all blueblue de. then can catch fish and crabs. lol. anyway that beach that we went was mostly made up of dead corals. very sharp and pointy. i got cut on my left foot because of the rocks. tsk. PRISTINE BEACHES ROCK ANYWAY. that was random. anyway back to what i was elaborating on; kuning got this really long cut on his hand and it bled quite badly. then we went to some other island. i sat right in front of the boat. FUNN! saw some live corals. they look beautiful! better than the ones at underwater seaworld. aunty rose's 2nd brother practically jus climbed a tree and plucked like 10 papayas or so. the papaya was so nice. so sweet. then we went back to the 1st island to collect the other children and teens and headed back. DINNER WAS SCRUMPTIOUSLY DELICIOUSLY NICE;D
DAY5(MON)
whoo so refreshed after sleeping alot. lols. went to BEACHH! the same as ytd tho. this time i wore kaylyn's pendant on my left hand and i got cut on my right foot. tsk. whis time we swam for a short while only cos in the afternoon we had to go for aunty amy's granddaughter's christianing. it was by the beach too! quite nice and the food was delicious. soon after we went home and i slacked the whole day. stoning reading the stupid BFG book cos i forgot to bring mine-.- at night we went to FIESTA! i sat the ferris wheel. its small but it can make this 180 swing! so fun. i keep wanting to swing it but jane(auntyrose's daughter)was beside me so yeah..
