Let's go out and vote! :)

Finally, the time has come to vote. I have chosen the people I believe are worthy to be in those positions. I'm hoping for the best!

One word to describe the Puerto Galera trip: BITIN!!!

I loved every minute of it! I was super hyped to get there... Although I got a little worried when they were asking me to bring food and lots of moolah. A thousand things were running through my head, if they were eating right or if they have enough money for the place, etcetera... >_<

I was so relieved to see they were all good and enjoying the beach when I got there. (All that worrying for nothing?! >_<) I got a bit scolded because I said I'll just surprise them when I get there. And yay for me for making it to the ferry! I thought I wouldn't be able to ride it if I was later than 4:30pm and I got to the pier around 4:45pm. Good thing there were ferry rides up to 6pm. Yay! And the porter I talked to was really nice, he told me how to get there... I fell asleep on the way to Puerto Galera. It wasn't a comfortable ride, but I was tired... and I woke up at 2am that morning so I really needed the sleep.

I got there around 6:30pm, found my friends in less than 5 minutes. Hehe..

We bought a few goodies, went to Talipanan (where they wanted to stay) and helped cook our dinner. Then after dinner and taking a refreshing bath, we went outside where they had a drinking game. I didn't join in the game, not really an alcoholic lover. ^^;

We stayed up and watched the stars up to 1:30pm. I found two shooting stars! Sadly wasn't able to wish.. gah! >< Anyway, I fell asleep as soon as we went back to the cottage. I woke up around 5am because of lots of mosquito bites.. ack! I completely forgot to put some Off lotion. My poor arms and feet. T_T

Since I was already awake, I ate a few crackers and waited for the dawn. I tried taking pictures, but the mountain was blocking the view of the sunrise.. :(

When I got back I woke everyone up and cooked some hotdogs for breakfast. We had hotdogs, bread and cheese for breakfast. :P Then we all geared up to swim in the nearby waterfalls. Little did we know that the way to the waterfalls was quite an adventure! Our hiking and rock climbing skills were tested... and we all went there wearing flip flops (as the foreigner put it). But the waterfalls was pretty! I swam and swam until I got tired of swimming and just stayed under one of the roots of the trees. The water was clear and cold when we got there... it got blurry when we went in. Hehehe... XD It was also a big adventure trying to go back, so steep. O_O

Then we had lunch at the cottage, the view was beautiful and we had the whole place to ourselves. Mm... yay! :D I fell asleep after lunch, and then went para-sailing! I have never done anything death defying in my entire life. I loved the whole experience! It was soooooooooooooooo much fun! I was flying! XD

Anyway, I had little time to look for souvenirs because we had to pack our bags and go back to the ferry. How sad... I wanted to get a few souvenirs for my cousins and my parents. :(

It was a sleepy ride back to Batangas port. I was so sleepy because I only had 3 hours of sleep. Plus the fact that I always fall asleep in ferry rides, bus rides, mm... almost all rides... XD

I went back to Laguna to grab my stuff and then went home. I got home around 11pm so I didn't notice this one important thing...

Which makes me go to the next part of this post.

Eugene, our dog for 11 years and 10 months, died last Tuesday due to heatstroke.

I was so tired last night so I didn't have time to look at my doggies, so I immediately went to sleep when I got home. I woke up around 6:30am and started looking for him. Sadly, they told me that he had a blank stare on Tuesday morning and then he just plopped down in the afternoon. When they were sure he was dead, and the other dogs were barking because he was no longer moving, they paid a passing bottle dealer (magbobote) Php 40 to take him away because we had no space to bury him here. I got a bit mad at this part, I wanted him buried here... T_T

I've been crying since this morning, especially when I was outside and I found his dish, looked at his favorite spot and his collar. TT_TT I miss him sooooo much! I can't believe I didn't spend much time last week because I was rushing to go back to Laguna. He was barking at me when I was leaving... I didn't know that was the last time I'll see him and hear him and touch him. You see, he usually stays calm when I leave the house, last time he barked at me like that was when I left the house was when I was still in first year high school. Since then, he didn't bother barking at me when I leave.. he just stays quiet. Well, most of the time... But last week, he was barking like he was trying to tell me something. I can't believe he was already saying goodbye.. I even told him I'll see him next weekend. *cries*

I even had a "happy dream" last Thursday. I dreamt about all the dogs we had and went to doggie heaven. I was collecting them and I was really happy to see them all... REALLY HAPPY... I just can't grasp the idea that I was dreaming about that because he was gone. It was like.. he wanted to say something. I think he was in that dream. I didn't see Luke or Aragorn, at least I don't think I saw them.

It hurts. I want to see him again. I want to say goodbye and hug him and tell him I love him so much. I want to see him running freely and playing with me and catching the tennis ball with his mouth and giving it back. He was a good dog, he was always alert and ready. I really really want to see him. I wish I could. T_T

Eugene, you will always have a place in my heart. I hope you're happy in doggie heaven and I wish you had fun while you were with me. I love you so much...

I'm still alive!

Omigosh! I've always been dreaming of the day I will go to work and earn money. I thought that earning a living would be a piece of cake compared to studying at school. I was SO WRONG! T_T

This OJT has taught me how to appreciate what we're doing at school. I hate research. Staring blankly at the computer screen or not knowing where you should be. I mean, we really don't have a designated place so we just use whatever computer is available or we just "observe" whatever they're doing. I just don't like it. Plus I have four projects to finish next week. Talk about STRESS. My supervisor loves teasing me and giving me tons of work to do. Meeehhhh.... -_-;

Anyway, on lighter stuff... It was only my fourth day at work and someone from the back-end was asking my number from Marj. I was like... Eeeeh?! Anyway, I told Marj that if they want my number, they should ask me. Sure enough, after talking to Marj the operators were trying to get my number, but why should I give it? I don't like texting people I don't know. But it's fun to have a lot of fans. XD However, I gave my number to my supervisor for emergency purposes. :p (He got it on my second day at work.)

And my landlady's youngest son is so cute! He's 23 years old (a little older than me) and he graduated from Mapua. He took up Electrical Engineering. I was really lonely on my first day and I couldn't sleep so I just went to the terrace to get some air. He stopped there before entering the house and he started talking to me. We shared about subjects, school, teachers, life... and so on. I think we were talking up to 3am. That was the first time I talked to him, I think it was really sweet on how he tried to cheer me up because I was feeling homesick. Too bad he already has a girlfriend. If he was available, then... XD We talk once in a while. He's usually at home so we get to have a little bonding time. Although I don't like what he did to his hair, because he got dreadlocks last week. Echk! He did it because he was going to the beach. ^^; Oh well... I just don't like it.

And because I can't post a lot of stuff about work. Something about secrecy and stuff. I will be ending this post with a cute quiz. Ehehe... I like the pictures. Especially the one about the bedroom... soooooo pretty! :D
