My Birthday Getaway! ❤



It was a very happy celebration w friends who came to celebrate w me. It was so much fun to travel w friends! I think this is the first time that we travel together and every memories and pictures are worth keeping forever. ♥



Meeting time at my place was supposed to be 5am but we ended up going at 6. Hello, Filipino time! :p




The road to San Vicente (in Palawan - that's where we went to) is awfully ugly! It's not the most comfortable trip ever but what welcomed us in this town is this scene so all the body pains we felt all throughout the trip was vanished upon seeing this..


We only took a rest for about 30mins then embarked once more on a trip, this time we traveled by boat..


San Vicente has the best beach I've ever seen so far here in Palawan (although I've yet to see El Nido beaches). As in the water is crystal clear, it's so cool, the islands we've seen as we travel is so magnificent! It's the best. I cannot describe it through words. It's just drop dead gorgeous! (?)




Fail jumping shot. :p


We ate for a bit. The weather's so hot that when I dip my body in the beach, it was heaven!! I started to swim at 1pm so hello, sunburn! :p


We got tired swimming so we ended up doing our own photo shoot! Haha. Mas matagal pa ang photo shoot namin kesa sa paliligo sa dagat. :D


Left the island tired but super happy and feeling super blessed. :) While on the boat, seeing the beauty of God's creation, I kept thanking Him for the magnificence of the beauty I've witnessed. I also thanked Him for giving me my eyes to appreciate this wonderful, wonderful creation. ♥


No more resting activity! Our time is limited so we make the most of our time by going all over the places finding some street foods to eat. The joyride at night is so much fun and so much adventure! Every single second in this trip is full of fun and worthwhile kwento's


Day 2: Joyride again. Went to long beach. It's really long, mind you. I can't stop myself from saying the beach is truly beautiful. Some of the people I know who've been to Boracay said that this beach is much more beautiful than Boracay and looking at google for the beaches in Boracay, I can say that it doesn't come close. I am that proud of San Vicente beaches. :)


Travel time again! This time, we have to go back to Puerto Princesa na. :|




Way back home. On our way, I kept on thanking God once more for all the blessings He has given me and for the gift of friendship and family who's happy being w me and who always see the best of me despite my imperfections and weaknesses and inecurities. This birthday trip of mine is a trip worth keeping and I want to make this happen annually! Yaaay. Hopefully. :)


Kaya kailangang mag-ipon na ng husto para may panggastos sa mga susunod pang trips. Traveling is my passion and my dream. And now that it's finally happening, I want to make the most of it and I want to travel to learn more.

I'll just pray everyday that God would allow me and my friends/family to travel more often and expose ourselves the rich culture of other people which we can only learn from traveling. I had a blast this year on my birthday. Thank You, Lord my God once more! ♥

i'm turning 22.


i don't know what to feel. :)


this is it. it's like i'm going through a metamorphosis and i still don't know what i'll become when it's finished. in short, i'm not really sure of what's gonna happen.. we (as in the twenty-somethings) all go through this phase naman di ba? but one thing for sure, although i'm a little bit confused yet but the important thing is i'm happy w my life and positive that everything will turn out okay in the end. i'm such a good girl! why wouldn't it be okay? :p


i'm 22!! shucks. so what now? i'm gonna spend it on travelling! yay. my very wish last year, i only get it this year. oh well, there's a good time for everything, i truly realize it now. :) i'm gonna travel w my friends.

adventure is out there!

now, i'm gonna live that up. i'm excited. :) new sights and experiences, new memories and pictures. looking forward to it already. hopefully, it will all turn out great w the provision from Above. please, Lord.



my wish for my birthday:
- to still have the sense of wonder that i had within me for the past 22 years.
- to start fighting for what i really want.
- to have a job that truly satisfies.
- to still have the hunger for learning something new.
- to stay awesome and happy. always. :)





and to You my Lord and Personal Saviour, thank You, thank You, thank You so much for guiding me all throughout my 22 years here on earth. it's been a tough life but because You are w me always, i'm taking all of these in stride. i take comfort w the thought that i don't have to go through life alone and it's more than enough.. thank You so much, Lord from the bottom of my heart. i know i couldn't make it through the rain without You. i'm forever grateful.. i cannot be afraid for the next, next years of my life because i'm not alone. i hope that i'm making You proud. i hope that Your light continues to shine because of me. i offer my all to You, Lord, because all of these are Yours. ♥



cheers to another 22 years ahead. :)
