my summer escapade..... ^_^

whoohh..... summer has already ended and time flies so fast that it's already that 3rd week of classes.... actually, i really wanted to extend my summer for 1 month, but, i know that it's not really possible....

anyway, we had our summer vacation last summer in one of the most famous beaches in the philippines, boracay... actually, i'm not really that excited in going there because whenever we had our vacation in aklan, it's already our tradition to go there (in boracay) and visit my only uncle in my father's side, my uncle gary ledesma.... well, i was expecting to see a spacious beach in boracay, but i was wrong... in fact, in my own point of view, it was already overpopulated!.. there were so many tourists ( including black and white americans ) that were spending their whole time sunbathing, riding banana boats and of course, swimming in the clear waters of the beach... honestly, when we had our last vacation there (about 5 years ago), it was still not overpopulated and there were not so many buildings standing near the seashore of the beach, but now, "hindi na mahulugan ng karayom ang lugar" because of the overpopulation of the people and the buildings... but, these things didn't hinder me in enjoying my precious summer....

besides swimming in the crystal clear waters, we were so lucky to have seen the famous bands in the philippines like chicosci, 6 cycle mind, kamikazee and so many more... and to all the myx fanatics, you should've been there because vj bianca and vj chino were there, too!! in fact, they were the hosts of the concert....we also did some shopping in d'mall ( the so-called "malls there in boracay) and in fact, i bought some keychains there as "pasalubongs" to my friends here in isabel, accessories, plus a souvenir shirt from boracay that was sponsored/made by the company called "island souvenirs"....

all in all, i really enjoyed my summer escapade there in boracay and i'm hoping that i can bring my friends there next summer so that they'll also experience the fun and excitement that i had when i was there... and i also thank God for letting me have such a wonderful summer in boracay.....

ice cream making ( na hindi natuloy) sa bahay nila lisbeth....

last saturday was really spectacular!!!.... well, we were actually planning to make our very own ice cream so that we can eat something cold in school this coming monday... actually, we were so excited to make it.... even the boys who went to lisbeth's house to have their band practice also helped in making it... it was so fun!!! ....( by d way, the other "invaders" in lisbeth's house were elaine, jasmin, lorraine, patrick, dycee, paolo, jermaine, lian and manuel....) then unexpectedly, ning brown out btaw!!... hala... we were so frustrated..... we attempted to call the LMC department so many times... but unluckily, no one answered our call..... we felt very bad because we were so excited in making our very own "ice cream" ( mango flavored, actually...)..so, we did something else....

Jermaine climbed up the mango tree at backyard of lisbeth's house to gather some mangoes for us to eat.... after all the climbing and peeling, we finally indulged into the sweetness of the mangoes..... it was like a satisfying moment for our hungry stomachs... wooh.... the mangoes were so delicious, i even ate 4 of it !! .... we were like the so-called mga-bata-sa-kalye when we ate those mangoes because we stayed outside, sitting on the dry grass and pavement as if it was our first time eating those.... but still, we enjoyed it, even though our real plan was to make ice cream..... one of us even said that he/she wanted to stay there forever so that he/she can eat those sweet mangoes over and over again....

Even though we were so angry at first when the lights went out, we were still able to make a very wonderful thing out of it: and that is having a very memorable time with the friends that you have made in your lifetime here in earth.... i really thank God for giving that quality time to us to have fun with our friends so that we will value our friendship more because we know that the time is drawing near when all of us will have to part ways to continue living the life we want here on our dear mother earth.......
