6th Anniversary - Day 1

September 9, 2016

Almost 2 months late but I’m making this blog post anyway. I rarely check this page due to my ~busy~ schedule at work BUT you make time for things that you want, right? :)

This is how Gene and I spent our 6th birthday together. We’re undecided where to go but my top picks were Baler and Calaguas. We did not have the time (and budget) to head to a place that requires a plane ride that’s why long trip on the road was our only option. Baler was our final pick since it’s nearer compared to Calaguas and we both liked to experience Glamping aka Glamorous Camping.

Place: Easy Adventure. Charlie’s Point Reserva, Aurora. Booked thru DealGrocer. Realized that their vouchers’ were saving our lazy selves since our 4th anniversary.

How we got there: Joybus. Booked the tickets online. Worth it for long travels!

We departed from Cubao around 6AM and arrived at 11AM. We were picked up by one of the staff of Easy Adventure using their Kombi. From the bus station it took around 20 mintues to get to the place.

                                                 Our place for a day

                                                       Inside the tent

We’re already starving when we got there, we just placed our stuff and headed to the common area to have our lunch. The voucher that we got was inclusive of the meals throughout our stay. Serving’s huge so no worries, you will be full!

After lunch, we explored the area first before taking our well-deserved nap. It was scorching hot that time, guysss.

Easy Adventure’s campsite is not that close to Sabang Beach, Mother Falls, Balete tree and other must-see spots in Baler. Also, we’re only staying for 2D1N so we just opted to stay in for the day and choose from their offered activities to maximize our time.

                 The Lakefront. This was show in the movie “Apocalypse Now”

Kayaking to somewhere we don’t know. Also, ang babaw dyan, not sure why i’m wearing a life vest. Maybe I was proactive of awakening the #disgrasyagirl in me.

One of the butlers, Kuya MJ, followed us and volunteered to teach us how to catch fish. I left the two of them (Gene and Kuya MJ) because I can hear something familiar from the fishing area: the sound of the waves.

                   The student patiently listening. He likes challenges. Haha.

Just a few steps aways, I reached the beach, err, the Pacific Ocean (!!!)

AAAHHH. A place where the sand is fine and current is strong: like me. Charot.

                                Thank you Kuya MJ for the couple photo <3

                           Mangroves seen on our way back to the campsite

What we had for dinner: Grilled Chicken BBQ and Squid with Coleslaw x Java Rice

They have a “lights off” policy before 12mn but they provided lamps for the guests. We just stayed on the bench in front  of the tent while we figure out how to capture the milky way. I regret not trying this when we went to Palawan. 

                                                  Our first try. LOL.

Luckily, it poured so it got cool that night. Bring a rechargeable fan OR ask if they have one for rent (we didn’t even think of asking. Haha). It’s actually nice when you have nothing to do at all. Sometimes just being with each other under the stars is enough #angarte.

Being a sleepy girl with a busy life is hard 💤

Random Post: When I "sleep over" at Gene's house I wake up late 90% of the time. By late I meant: 1. I'm alone in the bed cause Gene's lola is awake already 2. Gene is already done preparing breakfast But what I liked/loved about these two dishes were... 1. Gene prepared these on (two) days that he needed to go somewhere while I'm still asleep. First was for an alumni game then the second one's for golf. He made sure that I wouldn't be hungry (I wake up hangry y'know) even if he's not around. Even if it means waking up earlier than usual. Awww. 2. BACON + egg 3. Who eats tonkatsu for breakfast(!) #saruf *end*

September 19-20, 2015 (Anilao) Mabini, Batangas

•I’ve been stalking this place since last year lol so I got so excited when my tito told me that we’ll go there! •It’s just 3 hours away from MNL so I recommend this place if you just want a quick escape from the hustle and bustle of city life •Anilao = diving spot. Yet we chose to Island Hop instead •Everything was going well until the boat ran out of gas(???) in the middle of the sea! Of course, expect little to no signal at all. We were “rescued” after being stuck for an hour or so. Wew. •Unfortunately, we had to go back already after 1 island and didn’t get to see Sombrero Island :-( *sigh* •Overall, it’s still great weekend for us. Ang sarap magswimming while enjoying the view. AND I missed my gala fambam. Hehehe.

September 9, 2015 5th Year Anniversary -Simple celebration it is, since we're both busy (and broke) so we couldn't book any flight or drive away from MNL. -But according to Gene, the is the best anniv celeb yet ❤️ i couldn't agree cause each year's celeb has something special for me -No decent photo of us cause idk why. Haha. -After 60 months together, he still gives me flowers. Aww. -As for me, I ordered the photo canvas online. It arrived 3 days after the purchase and i didn't expect that it's THAT big. -I thought of putting an Apple logo on the box the day before our anniv (just for fun) since Gene is an Apple freak -Before opening the box, he was asking if it was cake or something baked. (Srsly the box smelled like cake??) -So happy that he loved it! -"Pagawa pa tayong marami". Yasss. -I love seeing you smile loike thattt -Another day to remember Looking forward to more days, weeks, months and years with you baby :)

September xx, 2015

-Lost track of the dates agaiiin -This month, I’ve subscribed to Gold’s Gym cause I want to be stronger with Gold’s. Lol. -I got tamad with working out “alone” and doing the same workouts -Membership includes 3 free trial with a PT -My first session was the fitness assessment test. 2nd was weight training and 3rd was circuit training -I AM SO LUCKY THAT MY TRAINER’S SOOO NICE. He still guides me even after the free sessions :-) -The equipments are overwhelming so I really need some help. My favorite so far was the resistance(?) machine -Sir Chris said that I already have a good form (yes!!!) for squats and weighlifting, so I just need to increase the weights gradually. -I just found out that I’m not allowed to deadlift for 2 consecutive days. Lol. -Yesterday, Sir Chris created a simple-to-follow (but very challenging) program. -“Leg Day” was the first program so I could barely walk now. Huhu.

“3 months from now, you will thank yourself”

August 24, 2015 - Gene's birthday. Totoo na to. Hahaha. - I always feel pressured on special occasions. Thinking/planning for a special day gives me jitters lol - What I like (and sometimes dislike) about him is that he knows what he wants. Thank God anything car related are easy to find! Wew :-) - Buuut I still want to give something made with love & effort. So this year I decided to make cookie cups! - First batch was a failure!! Unsalted butter is DIFFERENT from room temperature unsalted butter. Ugh. Haha - Good thing I have spare ingredients. Wew. The cookie cups were not too photogenic cause the noob in me placed the chocolates on top without waiting for the cups to completely cool down first #genius - Nexttt, I made Bacon Chicken Pasta. It's easy to make (but it was hard to look for the heavy cream huhu where can I get one here) - I'm soooooo happy that the picky eater birthdayboy liked it hihi - Oliva Cafe for dinner with Gene and his parents :) - Happy 25th again baeee 💕

Lol. - Fun booze night for everyone.

August 21, 2015 -Overflowing free food in the office due the week long birthday celeb of my lead. *burps* -I prepared Tuna Carbonara pasta cause I was craving one. I loved this since I was little. :P -It was my first time to make one.. but since we had free lunch last Friday, I just made it as my pasalubong to Gene. -I was worried that he wouldn't like it or it might taste bland for him but he really liked it! He let his mama taste it too (who is a good cook, btw). -And she approved! Wew. Hehe -I love it when you're proud of my achievements, no matter how shallow they are sometimes :-)
