another subic tour in the making

as mentioned earlier, we plan on returning to subic. either on peepee's birthday celebration or on kuya alvin's birthday. which ever date is agreed on.

the plan is to go to zoobic safari in the morning, enjoy the animals and the environment. take pictures of everything there and stuff ourselves with food. next stop is ocean adventure. we wanted to watch the dolphin show. they said you could swim in the beaches there. but, instead of swimming there, we could go to this resort right next to it..Camayan Beach Resort.

can't wait for it. i'm excited! everything is all planned. we just have to set the date. yihee!!!

busted!

my pc's busted. don't know why. when i got home on sunday, my cousin told me there was something wrong with the monitor. i checked it, the screen was blank. green light's blinking, but nothing else was coming up. i unhooked it from the back of the tower, turned it on, and saw the rgb box going around the screen. wasn't able to read what's written because it was in korean. thought it had something to do with the video card. so, i called peepee up and told him what's wrong. he also said the video card's busted. easy to replace, right?! no. my sister bought the pc as a bundle (when i told her not to buy bundled pc's), so everything's onboard.
i told momma what's wrong and i told her that the video card was onboard so the entire mobo has to go. she asked how much it would cost to replace it. i told her i'm not yet sure. i plan on rebuilding the pc. i wanted to replace the motherboard and replace everything in it. i wanted to change the ODD to a dvd/cd combo drive. i also wanted to change the processor to a core 2 duo and add more HDD to it. i also plan on removing the floppy because it's so retro. i want to keep the casing, if i could, as well as my monitor.
so right now, we pay the monthly dsl dues but we cannot use the computer. it sucks! can't even check my blog at home!

pictures from our subic tour

finally, i was able to get the code for the slideshow that i created. here's the pictures..

subic tour

first of all, thanks coach berns and coach angie for letting us go on vto this saturday!
this weekend, we went to ocean view beach resort for an outing. we left the house a little after 4am. we got to ate malou's house to pick up kuya alvin and giro. we left their place at around 4:30 in the morning. we arrived at the resort around 7 in the morning.
the resort was huge. it had a small area for those who wanted to play airsoft. it had cabanas everywhere and the rooms were behind the cabanas. i would not recommend going to the beach because the resort itself was located in an area where there were huge ships all around. had it not been that the ships were there, it would've been a great resort. the sand was as fine as the sand in boracay, minus the color. there were a bit of oil in the sand (because of the giant ships).
we then went to the pool to swim and it was fun!
after swimming for the entire day, we went to zoobic safari. sadly, it was already closed when we got there, but we still were able to see some tigers, and a couple of pot-bellied pigs. we were also able to see very sociable goats. we then went to ocean adventure to ask their rates and we then went to camayan beach resort, also to ask for their rates.
we promised giro that we'd go there next time. either on peepee's birthday or kuya alvin's birthday.
we were on our way home. it was dusk and we just left camayan beach resort. on the way, peepee happened to see tons of bats waking up from their sleep and flying off to search for food. he pointed it out to giro, but he couldn't see it clearly. so we stopped at the shoulder of the road and they got off the car. i stayed on the car and took pictures instead. i didn't want guanos on me. i've experienced it before in marinduque, when we went to bathala cave and it felt like it was raining inside the cave because of the bat droppings and their urine.

i was having a bit of a problem getting the code for the slide show in subic, but i'll try it later.

skyview resort, antipolo

last weekend, peepee and i went swimming in antipolo. we went there with our friends, katkat, kenneth, and their son karl, earl, macoy, and their son tonton, ryan, jeph, andrew and riza, lea, and bernard. after about a week of scouting for resorts, we settled on skyview resort in antipolo.
we got there at around 8 or 9pm. macoy earlier made kare kare (it was yummy, by the way) and she heated it up as soon as we got there. after settling down, macoy and i started to prepare the dishes. jeph was the one who grilled the liempo (marinade was done by macoy, and it was yummy too!). i made the grilled eggplant salsa. i also made the stuffed tilapia, but it was ryan who grilled it for us. after stuffing ourselves with food, they took out the drinks and started the drinking session right away.
for anyone who wants to go swimming but doesn't wish to go that far, we would recommend looking for places in antipolo. i recommend the place we went to for those who wanted to go out of town for the weekend, but let me warn you, though, the water is not suitable for drinking. they give out five gallons of drinking water, for free. one more thing, though. about the pool's water, it tasted funny. and katkat and i itched. but, all in all, the place is great.

bad trip naman!

why do women have to hav monthly visitors? at sutil pa talaga, most of the time it arrives either the day before or on the day you are scheduled to have fun!
pa'no kaya if women doesn't have to have it? siguro, ang saya nun kase we could do almost anything without worrying when the next scheduled visit will be.
bukas na kase yung swimming e! of all times na pwede shang dumating baket ngayon pa? ang awkward naman if i swim tapos meron ako diba?
hmmm...think, think, think...
i read somewhere when i was in high school about tampons. i read that pwede mag swim while wearing them. i asked manet if it's true. apparently it is. i asked her where i could buy them. she said she isn't sure, pero ana said i could check with either mercury drug or watson's. why not, poknat?!

swimming in antipolo

this weekend, peepee and i, together with some of our friends, will go swimming in antipolo. peepee and i are still looking for a resort and we have one in mind. we still haven't decided if we are going to get it or not..
