Getting sunburned in Daanbantayan

I went to this nice resort in Daanbantayan for a weekend trip last month. And no, this is not the island, this is still within the main island of Cebu. Ley and I took the bus.


This is not the bus terminal. I took this at one of the pit stops. :P


It's been so long since I took the public bus somewhere that I forgot you buy the ticket while the bus is already running, not before you board the bus. Yup, I was a bit of an ignoramus that day, or a really amnesiac person. Haha. Anyways, while we were on the bus, I fell asleep. And since I took the window seat, this  was what happened...




And it hurt like the dickens!!! :(  
But the place was lovely. 
We arrived at the resort around noon. 
The place was lovely and I couldn't stop taking pictures. :D






... even when the weather got a tad gloomy late that afternoon.







When dusk came, I was excited to take some twilight shots, which are among my faves.












The next day, Ley and I took more pictures before we left. And of course we thanked Mr. Ron Perry (our host). He owns the beautiful Virgin Beach Resort and he was super nice. Thank you again, Mr. Perry, for inviting us and making sure we had a lovely time.












Here's a picture of our host, Mr. Perry, and I. Stole this from Ley's site. Hehehe.






Ley, indulging his narcissistic tendencies. And yes, he was the one who requested, nay demanded, these shots. Hahaha.












A wacky triptych... :P 




After we left the resort, we segued to Bogo... but that story is for another time. 
Promise. c",)


P.S. For those who want to know more about this trip, you can check Ley's post about it in his internationally famous blog. Ahem. :P

The Dark Horse by Marcus Sedgwick

If you're one of my cyber friends, you'd think I barely read these days because of the lack of book posts I've done lately. But actually, I'm still at it... at a much slower pace, albeit. But I'm still at it. I'm just so overwhelmed with other stuff that I barely have time to write for fun, which I think is quite sad. Downright depressing sometimes, I tell you! Anyways, the last book I've finished--that I could still remember--is The Dark Horse by Marcus Sedgwick. I've had this book for years. You see, I collect books I think I want to read and just dump them in boxes whenever my bed becomes too crowded and start to smell like an old library. So I have tons of books I've had for years but never really read. Lately though, I've been rummaging inside the aforementioned boxes because people have been asking to borrow some of my books. And the nerd in me gets excited when I get to convince people to read... so rummaged the boxes, I did. And in ...

Pardonnez-moi

It has never been much of a secret to people, or to myself, that I can be quite brutal when stating facts. Sometimes, I'm just too impatient to find ways to skirt around hurtful words and just bluntly say things that pop into my head. In short, I'm usually tactless. Other times, I'm just plain careless. But contrary to what most people probably think of me, I don't like nudging people's sensibilities. I don't like stepping on other people's toes either. And this might be a hard concept to grasp, but some people do know how to make up their own minds... and stand by them--come hell or high water. And I am one of them. I don't know why?! But with every set of friends I make, this concept seems to be quite hard for them to swallow. Why?! I just want to dodge those seemingly inescapable monikers "bitch" or "ice queen" for a change. Is that so hard to comprehend?! Yes, I know. Some people find it irresistible to goad me because I'm a p...

Funny Day

This surprised me when I pressed "home" on my net browser.  Strange, but cute. ^_^ Grazie, Google! I guess? And no, I still don't celebrate it. Haha!
