Disclaimer: I'm sorry it took a long time for me to update but you gotta blame Blogger who's too lazy to upload multiple images. I only discovered tonight that I had to upload one picture at a time. Grrr...


I'm back from my second trip to Boracay. This time, let's do the highs and lows of this trip.

LOWS
- The terribly awful turbulence on the flight to Caticlan. It was sooo bad that I thought I was gonna puke any moment. And to think I have very high tolerance for motion sickness.
- The real world catching up to me. Getting work- related phone calls while I was trying to rest and catch up on my sleep. I didn't get sleep before leaving. I was up all night!
- Having to transfer rooms because the room I was suppose to stay in was being painted a day before I arrived.
- Busted water heater in the bathroom (which was later replaced with a brand new unit)
- Getting a bum tummy (from the Mangga't Bagoong I ate during sunset on our second day)
- Not feeling the urge to drink for 2 days (probably because of my bum tummy)
- A's snoring
- A's snoring when he goes to bed drunk
- Missing mass last Sunday because A and I took a nap and woke up too late
- Not getting a tan (How can I get a tan if we'd swim at 4pm, when the sun's rays aren't strong?)
- Jonah's not having Mango Strawberry shakes
- Jonah's being always full
- The aircon losing its cool in the middle of the night
- Walking all the way to my lolo's laundry shop only to find out that it was closed for the day as it was November 1
- Feeling like a hog sometimes: Eat, sleep, eat, sleep
- Not eating a single Chori burger this time. I don't know. I just didn't feel like it. I wasn't craving for it.
- Fast melting ice cream
- Prices of food are as high as the prices here in Manila
- How Boracay is getting more commercialized by the second. I wanted to cry when I saw what the Elizalde's built beside D'Mall. It's Boracay's very own Greenbelt!

HIGHS
- Passing by McDonald's to get a Longganisa meal breakfast. I rarely eat breakfast (because I'm usually asleep around this time) and since my flight is in the morning, I pass by Mickey D's to get my favorite breakfast meal. This is the one thing I look forward to every time I have to fly somewhere. (And now that I realize, since I go to Boracay three times a year, I have the Longganisa meal three times a year as well!)
- Getting an earlier flight
- Staying in on my first night and going on a Comedy Thursday marathon on Star World while playing Cinema Tycoon on my laptop (I watched The Apprentice and I cried when Chris got fired, not because I like Chris but because I felt so bad for him!)
- A finally arriving in the island
- Sleeping and waking up in A's arms
- Getting drunk with A
- Hot showers
- Getting a much needed massage for A and I.
- A going to the ATM for me when I was too lazy
- Getting the premiere copy of Marie Claire's Philippine edition (I was getting bored with Cosmopolitan already and was thinking of subscribing to Marie Claire US. The Philippine edition came just in time).
- A being patient with me whenever I was getting annoyed
- Eating in new places like Lemon Cafe, Real Coffee and Ole Tapas Bar and Restaurant
- Swimming in the rain, watching everybody run for cover when the heavens poured
- Finding a sea snail twice and letting it crawl on my hand. (I wanted to take it home to Manila and give it to my brothers).
- Jonah's being open 24 hours so we could have shakes anytime we want
- A finally being able to relax and have a vacation
- The Simpsons marathon last Sunday
- Drinking our daily vitamins and lots of water
- The chocolate coating of Mister Twistee ice cream
- Being with A for 6 days straight
- And the highest of highs, the OHMYGOD- I- don't- care- about- my- diet food. This has got to be one of the best dinners A and I ever had.

Andoks Chicken, Prawns in Sweet and Spicy Sauce, Fresh Oysters. Slurp!

Look at the size of those prawns!
