Young, Wild and Free: a photo diary


It's been a while since I spent time with myself.. and with friends.
This time we hit Tali Beach in Batangas for a 2day adventure.

But before goin to bats, we stopped by Paseo de Sta.Rosa
to have late lunch/early dinner.
They have awesome sizzling blue marlin here!




I can be an ambassador for Batangas actually, I love Bats!
Anilao, Mabini and now Nasugbu, well, specifically, Tali!:)

Here are some photos of the beaches we went to:




you can cliff dive/ cliff jump here.


I tried goin' down there but t'was too deep!



here's our little hidden island.


here's the view from above.


Tali, actually, is a subdivision where it's sort of surrounded by
the sea. Every street has its own part of the beach, so wherever you are
you will always have your little space alone with your thoughts.


we went looking for the perfect spot, here's one.



but when the night came, we had to eat (above photo) fried tilapia! YUUUMMM!..





...and we need to drink, so we went to the beach and boozed up!




we also had a very unlikely visitor. the "madam" of all the roaches according to Peter!
clever! haha!:D



This is the way to the pub beach, it's pretty and you can go snorkeling,
there we're fishes, and I mean lots of em!




while we we're here, a fisherman sold us lobsters! big ass lobsters!:)


its 500pesos for two! what a bargain! and it's fresh!


here's our group pic at the pub beach, see,
we're the only ones there!

we stayed for a while on this beach, it was really rocky but the
WHITE sand is amazing. It is really white!


and oh, heres another pic of the cliff diving spot!

It's breath taking! and Prince and I gotta have a photo there!


after the whole day of trying to find the perfect spot,

we landed on this amazing hidden island with a cave that's just waist deep!

here's our really blurry photo inside the cave!

everyone got their perfect spot, some spent some time under the sun and many
we're trying to hide from it! c'mon! it's the beach!


here's my fab girls, i love them to death!

there we're ruins of the thing that blocks the waves (sorry i forgot what they are called)
It was beautiful and it helps you walk in the middle of the sea! oh yeah! no swimming needed, just walking on those rocks!:)

before leaving the beach to have early dinner I had a
picture taken with my comet, also, my bikini partner!:)

back at our house, Ry cooked dinner. chicken wings, tilapia and adobo
while AC prepared onion rings (which didn't even get to dinner) and buttered lobster!

crispy chicken wings!
this is the best-seller!

onion rings!
sold-out!
and the star of the night, Lobster!:)

and we're ready for battle!:)

I can never ask for more with my friends, they never
fail to make me happy. I sometimes wish it can be like college where
we can spend time together everyday, but distance makes the heart
grow fonder and I love them more as time passes.

They keep me sane and insane, they are my happy pill.


that space is for aveline, whom we wish will be back soon to join us for another trip!:)

November note: souls and sentiments


On that very moment I stopped torturing myself, I've let go and let the waves bring me.


I was one with the sea, I was riding the waves and looking at the rocks under on the ocean floor. It was the most beautiful thing in the world; the colors, the fishes, the corals and the way every wave pushes and pull me back. I placed my feet on the rocks on the ocean floor and loved how the sun hits my face, making me as if blinded by the light. It was a few minutes of an empty mind, I needed more of that. I needed more time to empty my mind and just live.


On the van, I started crying like a baby. It wasn't because I was leaving paradise but because I cant help but think I am going back to a place where all these sentiments is coming from. I wanted to leave that place but everytime I do, I have to face the fact that no matter what happen, I would need to go back.


Birthdays gets me down, it makes me think of how pathetic and sad my life is. A home that was wrecked and smothered by pain. An existence that is as painful as a stab on your heart. I am living this life, a life that could not be changed by a choice nor anything else.


I have no choice, mom figured out a plan on how to get away from us. Instantly when she left, I became the woman of the house. Wash clothes, cooks and prepares food, pickup and drop off my brother, work to help on home finances and to give allowance to my brother and my mom. I don't know if it's every kid my age to be handed this resposibility or is it just too much for me to handle. I had no choice. It's as if a day isn't enough to finish everything.


Every night I have to pretend to my dad that I was okay, alright about everything that had happend to our family. Pretended that I still have hope for all of us to be happy and together again. But I had gave up, quite a long time ago.


Sometimes I ask myself, why this happend to us. We're we that bad of a family? Or we saw this coming and ignored it? Why this pain should be felt by dad and rylle? Why we deserved this? My every nights sentiment is that I hope dad won't lose it. He went through to much, he did everything for us to be happy and I can't see even a slightest reason why this should happen to him, of all people, why him. Now we are the only two at home and we barely see or talk to each other. It's an empty home.


Mom is a bitch, and I am not saying that because I hate her but because she turned into a monster. My monster mom thinks she can just go away one day with my baby brother and never come back. One day when I went home, my brothers things we're not there anymore and moms things we're taken away. I didn't know how this happend. When I finally saw her again, i told her that I would love to punch her in the face, I could have done that, but she's my mom. Somehow I tried to understand, but there's just nothing to make me believe that this is the best for everyone. I've had enough of her and her antics.


Today I've got a really bad headache, no sleep and too much stuff going through my head. I am really tired of this roller coaster called life, I hope I won't lose it and jump off.

Nike Huarache

here's another shoe post, i never really understand basketball shoes. All of my friends play basketball and I always say my opinion on what shoes to get, all because I look at shoes in a way that they can be fashoowwnn while playing. Hahahaha. gayboys. What I mean is that I always look at form over function and I never really understand the difference one shoe to the other.

Nike Huarache is from the 90's Nike shoes which was reinvented with modernized free outsoles hybridizing iconic colorways and silhouettes.

This shoes look pretty neat for shoes and it will be out on November.:)



and if you don't like candy colors, then you can opt for a darker version
