Throwback Thursday: Batch Probers

Once my high school Research teacher finds out that I had all the time in the world to make this blog entry instead of sending a reply to her Facebook message, all hell will break loose. However, there is a very slim chance she knows about this whole world called Blogger. Sorry Ma'am F! 

Anyhoo, there is a reason why I suddenly unearthed these photos from the old and dusty baul. The annual homecoming is happening in a few days and my friends and I are going to pull off a no-show. So here's a letter from my friends/batchmates and I:

Dear teachers and fellow alumni, 

      We won't be able to participate in this year's events. So in behalf of my beautiful and handsome

      batchmates, can I interest you in a set of throwback photos? Hehe

Here's an Octave original: a hilarious caricature of all her classmates! Haha. We belong to the Bato section or as we'd like to call it, the ROCKers. You can find me in there somewhere but I won't give any clues. ;) 

The iconic Episode shoot with the Bebz! (minus Raruy, Riza and mommy). There's no photoshoot ever more epic than the P180 package from Episode! 6 wallet sized copies. Two 4Rs. One blowout picture. Thank you Episode for all your services. You are missed. 

Hijas' Beach Time

Feeling really sentimental that May is finally over! Uhm, the upside is that I can finally sleep straight and not worry about the kids' daily snacks! And I finally have time to workout in the afternoon (which I entirely skipped last month). But I am honestly missing all of it already - the kids, the noise, the songs, the people especially my girls! After a whole month of classes, meetings and a handful of culmination activities, we finally had a time off. So, to the beach we went! 

Yeheyyyy lagum na kaayo ko please! Hahah! 

Perfect way to cap off my summer! Now onwards to June... <3

Birthday 2016

 Birthday Salubong at our new favorite Ersh Cafe.

Night swimming at Water's Edge. My family and I went there early in the afternoon so my little nephews can enjoy the pool and go home earlier to rest. Too bad we didn't have photos together. We were so busy keeping up with the toddlers! To give you an idea, we would find ourselves screaming every 5 minutes every time my nephews attempt to jump into the pool, swim on their own, or run faster than usual. It was a riot and the little ones gave us approximately 20 panic attacks! lol 

My night swimming team! I am honestly embarrassed our table looked like all we had were drinks! I promise there were a lot of food too! Hahah.

Korean and Kapehan Night

Am I witty yet with this post title? Hahah. 

So one steady Saturday night was spent in dedication to Koreans and Kape. Hahahah. (Waley) Pearl Restaurant has recently opened in Dumaguete and we had to take a visit and experience this latest trend we see on our news feed. 

Overall, we loved it. Because we ordered a lot. Food is yummy. And yummy food solves everything!

Our next stop was this quaint little cafe a few blocks downtown. They named it Ersh Cafe and my gay heart leapt with joy! This coffee syphone (or syphoned coffee?) is interesting 'coz you have to brew the coffee yourself. 

Sweet Siquijor Weekend

Disclaimer: This is the first installment of my Siquijor trip with my barkada. Since this trip was 80% amazing and 20% frustrating, I have decided to create a two-part post, this being the "amazing" one. 

We stayed in Salagdoong Beach, Maria, Siquijor for the weekend. The resort was quite secluded so there's pretty much nothing else you can do but savor the place, eat and of course do a lot of swimming. And a lot of eating and swimming we did!

We decided to visit Msgr Catubig whom we fondly call "Monsi" who happens to be the town's parish priest. He and Ruben turned out to be our blessings in disguise since we weren't very prepared with our things and we lacked a lot of cooking materials and other 'survival' stuff.

Birthday Snapshots

Thank you dear Lord for another year!

Videoke bonding with my girly loves last night.

May Snapshots

I missed writing so much that today, I felt like I needed to press the keyboard and do some good in my blog. It's been ages since I've written a decent post about my crazy stupid life and right now, I'm still not sure if I can finish this entry. 

I'm lazy like that.

Anyway, it surprised me that I actually did some few posts last month considering the fact that I've been physically and emotionally 'under the weather'. But looking at these pics, I think I may have went through 'it' pretty fine. (Or so I thought.)
