Memories of January


Let me start this post with a beautiful shot of Ormoc Bay I took when I had to say goodbye to my home and a smiling me. :)




How time flies! It's February already, January flew away like a paper in the wind. So many things and goals to do this 2013. I have always been the crazy kind of a person who does things and sometimes, don't finish it, but not this year please. This year, I plan to do a few things that I have never done before and/or have been putting off for a long time.

To start off the year, I met my friends for dinner. This was a promise we made before the year started, that we'll go grab dinner to celebrate the new year. We ended up just eating and talking. :)

I had to do this on my own.
And then, I got sick, and I  don't mean I got a fever, I meant the painful sick. Apparently, my immune system got weak during the Christmas holidays and I got a lump over my lower back, full of pus. I'm not gonna share you the details, it's all gory and eewwwyyyy. So anyway, for a full week I was in constant pain and needed pain meds to get through the day. It was almost three weeks before I got better and until now, the lump is still there.

Pain meds and antibiotic among other tings.
 Then there was Sinulog. If you know me, then you know I absolutely hate crowds, unless I know I'm secured with the air I breathe, literally. I get so anxious when I'm in a crowd that I almost always pass out because I couldn't breathe. I ended up celebrating Sinulog at the rooftop of Harolds Hotel with good friends for company. Drinking beer and good conversations are a perfect match to make a great Sinulog memory.
Two nights before Sinulog, we went out and had fun in this magical place. 


We got high and then we got headaches, but the memories was lovely.

Sinulog night, drinking out with friends and fireworks!
Awesome friends for an awesome vacation.

I traveled, this was far by the best thing that happened to my new year. Traveling early in the year would mean I get to travel the whole year round, well I hope the universe would allow me to do saw. And if my travel is any indication of my travels are gonna go, then I'm gonna have a great travel experience this year. I went to Boracay with two of my favorite friends, Mai-Mai and Idyll. This was planned last year and the ticket were bought last year too. We had so much fun there, we even met a new friend. :) So many details I hope my memory could retain. We did water sports, and my favorite was the para-sailing and thank God for the new friend because if it weren't for him, I wouldn't even dare of doing it. But I found myself in the skies and my eyes was full of endless beauty and my heart filled with calmness and peacefulness I never imagined I'd ever feel.
Well, that's not me, but that's how we sail!
The water was just lovely and so was the jetski experience! Oh and the sunset too!

My January ended, the holiday air might be gone, but memories of January lingers on to me.

When I got sick, I went home to Ormoc. My mom made me pancakes <3 br="">Best memory ever. I love my parents so much



February is here, and I hope to make more great memories with this month, the month of love. :)
