Tomorrow's the end of everything! hrhr
Although I have been always talking about studying and my eagerness to finish college to enter Medicine school, I still DEMAND a longer break. 2 weeks is just equivalent to 2 hours if you have done too much of everything for the past semester.
Contrary to my previous post, last week, there had been drastic changes in my daily routine. Instead of the 1-14 list of Things-To-Do, everything happened at random. A few years back, my parents have decided not to visit the cemetery during the first week of November due to heavy traffic in Sucat. To take advantage of the work holiday, we would always go out of town for swimming or a road trip.
For this year, they decided to visit the Bicol Region -- to know how it feels to drive through 400++ kilometers of dust, rocks, and rains. Whew. It took us 12 hours to reach our destination, Legazpi City. We had a breathtaking view of Mayon Volcano at dusk, and it hasnt lost all of its beauty yet. Unlike Mt. Makiling of which I have the privilege to see everyday, Mayon Volcano was almost ideal. It was green, and has that shape so much like those sketches I did in grade school.
Sad to say, I think the only tourist attraction there was the ruins of the Cagsawa church, which, if you still can remember, is the small tower we see in postcards of Mayon Volcano. For PhP 7.00 you can take a closer look at it, and shop at a small dry market of Bicol souvenirs. ANd since it was sembreak, I had no money to buy myself something. Thank God I have a mom!
The trip back to Laguna seemed never-ending. 14 hours through Legaspi, Albay, Camarines Sur, Camarines Norte, Batangas -- we passed a hundred of towns until we reached little San Pedro.
Still unsatisfied with the trip we had to Bicol, we spent a night swimming in Pansol Laguna last Friday. That morning I had to get my phone from Shopwise in Araneta Center (Fortunately, the hardware was brought to life, thanks to Dr. Joshua. I still have problems with the software though. Grr that water!). We had to rush back home to prepare for the swim.
My brother's girlfriend, Aura, came with us to Pansol. And yes, we are very good friends now.
