Yesterday, I got a chance of a lifetime.

No, not some contract. (I'm not exactly made up to be a star. hehe.)

I went to beach with a couple of people from the yearbook and the school paper. It took us three hours to get there. We passed through Tagaytay (which is one of the best places in the world)and reached the resort at 10 when we left the school at 7.

I was SUPPOSED to swim.... but then I got an invitation to ride aboat with some folks. I did ride the boat and they told us that to get to another island would take like 30 mins. I was a little scared, since it was my first time to go, and I was unsupervised by my parents. One of my friends joked and asked us if we already had a last will in testament. I laughed, but the thought made me cringe a little. Just a little. The adventurous part of me took over, thank goodness.

thirty minutes became an hour and a half.

And I was like "Where are we?" and "Are we there yet?"

We got there, and it had white sand, not really white, but nonetheless it reminded me of Boracay (Bora for short). I had my aura checked by a friend and she said it was orange. Perfect for a sunny day, isn't it?

When we got back, I realized we had six hours of traveling, on a van, and then on some cool boat, but judging by the open sea; getting splashed by the "waves", collecting some rocks, corals and shells on the island and the boat's motor conking three times on the way back... hmmm.... (PLUS almost falling asleep while going back to the resort)



I'll take the boat anytime.


We stopped at Tagaytay in the afternoon when we were on our way back to the school. Turns out, they wanted to go to Starbucks. So I tagged along, not exactly wanting to spend a few bucks on a drink, but the hot chocolate was too tempting to resist. I wanted to see the sun set there, but we had to head home...


When I got home, I ranted about the trip forever. To my family, at least.






Yeah. What a trip.
