We've waited so long for this vacation. My cousins' been in our house for almost a month and I've been rotting long enough. I needed to leave badly. Atlast the day has come. I, Mae, and Katrin decided to stay up all night and get fixed to pass the time. We did our manicures and make-up, we packed our bags, and ate breakfast even before the sun rose.

My other cousin caused us so much delay. We should have left days earlier but I can't really blame her for having a family like hers. They are so dependent and parasitic; they got married, had children without having prepared for it. They expect their kids to make the living for them and even their relatives. Asar! Anyway... we left home early so we can get an early ride but early as it is, a series of not-so fortunate events came upon us. First, the trike we took didn't give us our change, second the van we're expecting to take us straight to Lucena isn't there anymore, then when we took the bus, it broke down somewhere in Batanggas that forced us to transfer to another bus and have to stand for the whole of the trip till we get to Lucena. But then again, we survived. I was standing there carrying my weight with my arms and feet for more than an hour but we did it. We came to Lucena, alive. Hahaha! I went to play DotA wth my brothers and two other cousins. An hor and a half later, my company ate lunch while I decided to take my usual afternoon nap. We were supposed to go to SM Lucena by 2pm to watch SOP Gigsters but I woke up late and to find out that everbody else, except for Honey, slept the whole afternoon. I waited for Kat and Mae to wake up and get fixed then off we went to SM to stroll. We went here and about, sang to the top of our lungs at the videoke launge. We passed by the Etertainment center and saw that Paolo Bediones, Richard Gutierrez and other Kapuso stars are just outside doing S-Files so went out to the parking lot only to find JC De Vera, Sunshine Dizon,Gale valencia and Tess Bomb. We went back inside to print some pictures and grab KFC. We thought of hanging out for a while at Mae's house but due to his father's insolence, that almost ruined the night, she just grabbed the things she needed and then we left as soon as she's done. After dinner everyone decided to go to a carnival and it was RAD! Especially that Gravitron that used the concept of centrifugal force. The rides were all adrenal and left me with a natural high but the last one we had before we went home was lame as ever. A ferris wheel that went really slow, wrenched my stomach, had me dizzy that I wanted to puke. Heck! I regret riding that one even if I forced my brother to treat us to some free tickets because he won the color game he went to. I wanted to stroll some more but my head was laready spinning, I got myself a hot soup, a hotdog, and a cold drink and flew home together with Kat and Mae earlier than the others.

We thought the festivities are over but I was told it wasn't yet so went to the "bayan" [city proper, just so you know.], and strolled in the middle of the night. We wore house clothes and flipflops, and went with the crowd that were mostly in their japorms. We had some food tripping, or atleast I have. I ate crab nuggets, siomai and before heading home, everyone helped themselved with a bag of popcorn each.
May 30 & 31
I don't remember exactly what happened during these days. We would grab fishballs and other junkies from a vendor that passes by the subdivision every afternoon. We, Sweeth Joy & I, sneak out to get something to eat. I went out alone at night to meet up with a special friend [Haha... usual teen stuff. Hey, that'd be the last time I'll be doing that because I would have to grow up someday, and outgrow some of the things I used to love to do and it may mean quitting on meeting up with him and even our friendship. It's harsh, but things has to happen... Nevermind!]. We venture out in vain to search for inihaw [grilled street food] but to no avail. At the night of the 31st, I went by my highschool bestfriend's house for a short chatter. We haven't seen each other in almost a year but things never really change; We still have a lot to tell each other, we would talk about different things about the same people. I believe she's really happy now. Awww... I really love that girl. I with my cousins Warren and Sweeth would roam the subdivision using my uncle's motorcycle, which is by the way the fad in Lucena today, you're not IN without it. I got Dominique's number and he would flood me with the same message which is really cute and annoying. Haayz...

I stole some bath salt from my aunt and scrubbed myself to death, taking away all the libag I can take. Haha... I, with my usual sleeplessness, slept only for a few hours and woke up at 3am, never gettign back to sleep. I kept thinking of when I'll be back this road again. I realized how bored I was living inside my head, inside the confines of my little world I call my room. Yeah, being alone can be cool but too much of it makes me a darn bore. The letting go thingy that I've been screwing my head off with for days isn't really necessarily, as I realized it. I can't move on with things if I can let go but I can not really let go of things and people that I used to love and I don't have to punish myself for not doing so because I don't really have to. I need some things to look back on to and visit once in a while. I slip-up on them when I have my mind on other things but I do not actually forget them. All I have to let go, all this time, is my fear of the uncertainties of everything because nothing is really certain. Haha... Whatever!
I'm back home now. I forgot to text the people I was supposed to text. SOme of my plans didn't work but there's always another summer to get it done with. The people who've seen me for the first time after a long while seem to have noticed the obvious, that I gained lots of weight, soem would not even recognize me and offended as I am, I would just joke about having nothing to eat anymore, that I would just beg from our neighbors for food when the reality is that it kills me to make fun of myself. I'm not sure of the exact chronology of the things I wrote and I'm sure I haven't written everything. I sure missed a lot of my routines when I left but I definitely made a lot of memories to last me until next summer. It isn't quite big for a summer adventure but I enjoyed this year's.
I'm not sure how to end this post but maybe I could share with you what I recieved after having this kind of vacation this summer, LOTS OF SMILEs :-)
