Getaway #1

Love is when friends take an adventure and spend a getaway together despite of their busy schedules and "new lives". 
FINALLY. just finally, we are all set, I guess merely the four of us. We've been planning for some sort of escape from all the drama and issues and lots of blah blah blah back then at summer, yet we had pursued it only at this time of the year. It was absolutely right in time, because three days after our trip is Christmas. Not to mention, that we're actually setting the dates a year before the world "might" end. 


When and where?

Just so you know, everything was instant. Instant planning, deciding, and inviting. It's not like, "okay, next next week we'll be going on a trip, we have to decide now, so we could have a week or so to prepare." It was like, "my grandma's gonna be out next week, tell them ASAP and guys, ask for effing permissions!" I don't know, but everything just went way too fast. Of course, because it was instantly finalized, some of the good friends haven't made it, and in my part, I got trouble in asking permission. You know, parents always ask every single detail about your proposed "project". December 20 and 21, it is. It's vacation sooo we've got nothing to worry about schedules and classes. Damires Hills, it is. I can't remember if Eunice suggested it all, but she made it all happen, anyway.Since Janiuay is out of town and more or less it will take an hour to travel from the city, Eunice offered their house back there for an overnight stay for us.

Damires is...

different. If you want to try something new, get refreshed by merely overlooking at a vast rice field, trees, and nipa hut cottages, if you're sick of sandy white beaches and just want to see a pleasant view that is uplifting to your eyes and heart, might as well visit this place. 

Underwater...

Damires has its infinity-like pool with a miniature waterfalls. Our cottage was just at the side of the pool so we've got nothing to worry about when it comes to our valuables left and jumping into the water. We've taken a lot of pictures and tried different stunts underwater with the special swimming classes held for our dear friend, Hilary. Because of our vanity, and because of the stupid handrail in the pool, Hilary and I went out of the water with the fvcking bruises left on our legs and feet!


Highlights...

After dipping in the pool, drinking some beverages, playing fun and games and munching some food and chips at the table, we had to leave the inland paradise as the sun goes down. Sad to say, our hearts broke when we had not tried the zip line because it costs too much and we had not gone to some hiking or stuffs like that around the place by the time Eunice's father arrived to fetch us.It was a sort of relief when we finally left the annoying strangers who are too friendly to bother talk to us in a very "unsuitable" way that would make us feel very uncomfortable. :\ 

At Eunice's house, we were served with a very luscious pansit, cooked by her father, and a very scrumptious lechon manok. It really feels great to spend dinner time together with your closest friends and talk about all the fun you had earlier of the day. Though we were very tired and sleepy, we didn't let the day pass without having our favorite past time: (drum roll please) PHOTOSHOOT. Eunice and I had most of the shots. No, EUNICE had most of the shots, talk about 58 solo frames. Vain much girl. 


After doing the girl stuffs, we decided to watch Never Let Me Go, but the movie failed to give us an appealing impression, so the two ladies fell asleep first. Midnight came and we lie-downed to get ready for our morning exercise the next day. 

When the sun was up, we went out of the house to breath the refreshing air from the hills and see the green atmosphere surrounding our place. As we had dinuguan for breakfast, we tried to reminisce memories way back from high school, such a great time. We all know that these little I'm-in-cloud-nine times would have to end so before going back to reality in the city, we flaunted our very outrageous yet SEXY moves with our favorite beat at the moment!

Sexy and I Know It - LMFAO 

Bottomline...

Spending time together this Christmas Season is yet the best gift I've, we've ever received. Trips like this don't happen all the time, and only through PLAN and COMMITMENT are these achieved. Thank you so much friends, Eunice, Hilary, and Nestor ♥
