hey hey hey! the awaited "outing" was finally over.

there were no expectations on my side. i just wanted to surprise myself a little because the planning and everything was hard. although there's this side in me thats hoping that it would be really really fun. sorta better than the last outing. until one by one, people were backing out. it was depressing. never thought that it would still push through.

surprise yourself, nica.

there were 12 of us. 12 out of a whatever number. i got to set aside all my "tampo" when i realized what a blessing in disguise it was.

imagine if we were around 20, then probably we'd be commuting instead of safely riding at teta's l300. as miguel said, "the lesser, the merrier." for some reason, i felt that we should stand up for it (im talking about the quote). so what, if we weren't as many as before? that shouldn't hinder us from enjoying this so called ''block" outing.

and you know whats funny? from that 12 people who joined, only 7 of us are originally from adtu.
AND DO YOU KNOW WHATS EVEN FUNNIER THAN THAT? an arki joined us. he's from arki but he managed to come. hahaha! guest of honor.


im listing here "events" that happened during our stay at dorae's resort at tagaytay.

• namalengke kami. it was my first time to do that. kadiri nung baboy skin. we were so hungry, hindi na nakaabot ng buo yung bananas sa resort.
• rest muna. super it was "no pressure". parang the feeling lang was, nagrerest kami sa malayong lugar.
• played poker as usual.
• swam a bit. it was so cold. there were ''micro organisms" floating. LOL!

• yung napakaharsh na trike ride papuntang perfect view for lunch. hirap na hirap si kuya trike driver sa bigat namin.
• ubos na energy super from lunch to l300.

i originally wanted to put everything in details but i guess my left energy cant do that yet. super how i wish i could tell you how happy it was. it was just the way i wanted it to be. perfect. relaxed. no pressure.

grabe! the moments were too funny to be true.

it was the first outing na masaya ako simply because im with my friends and we're just fucking enjoying the day. ever since i was allowed to go to outings, i was always stuck guy-wise. my basis of being happy in a trip was if we had a moment or something with the guy. or basta, if he wasn't there, my mind was preoccupied by him. it was unhealthy. but now, gosh! i was just so truly truly truly happy. im just happy because i have myself and i have a great bunch of friends around me.

the food was great and we were just high all along. fine, there were dramas but without it, for sure it wouldn't be as fun.

that group of 12, few to even say that it was a block outing, played a role that will never be forgotten. it was composed of everything i needed and wanted. love, care, happiness, fun, laughter, tears, comfort, protection, trust, respect, strength and the assurance that they'll never leave you.

not all of them present knew each other for a long time but it was indeed a friendship worth keeping. in friendship, time is never the basis. so what kung ngayon lang nakilala? but it was true. it was true.

taenang dumideep na ko. friendship na pinaguusapan ko. goodnight, loves.



here, do you want to know how fun it was? it was so fun, we barely used the camera to whore. it was so fun, we didn't need it to show others how fun it was for proof. it was so fun, i was happy inside out.



"having fun doesn't mean you're happy. being happy doesn't always require fun. why not have both?"

WE HAD BOTH. :)
