Love.Risk.Surf.Live

I'm so excited I have to write before I sleep. Finally after 5 months I'll go back and surf in Baler. I can't wait. Fresh air, cheap food, perfect waves, and yess far far from the hustle and bustle of the city. My board Denden has already accumulated dust here at home. Time to get her wet! Surf's up! That's all. I just like to release my excitement! Haha. I'd like to share my previous entries about my surf 5 months ago. It's written in 3 prats. I stayed there for 4 days. I was with Ju, and Janina. They are friends of Marie whom she tagged along during one of our surf trips. Since then I always invite them whenever I surf. So yeah I was with them for the first 2 nights and then my relatives came. So what's nice is that rest of my stay was for free because they paid for everything! Part 1 Part 2 Part 3

Supposedly I am in Zambales inducting Seaduction 2010, but because I had to cancel the trip, I drove my mom to CCF in St. Francis Square. While waiting for her, I looked around hoping there are a lot of clothes to find. I ended up buying tank top. Finally after two hours of waiting mom texted me that we meet at the entrance. Before going home I convinced her to buy me Beard Papa. A choux pastry shell filled with whipped cream custard. The first Beard Papa was opened in 1999 by Yuji Hirota in Osaka , Japan with the motto Pipin' Hot Cream Puffs . I love the filling. Very mouth-watering. The puffs are filled with whipped cream custard once you order them so that they won't be soggy and then dashed with confectioners sugar . Each one costs 50pesos. They also have special cream puffs with toppings to choose from which cost 55pesos.

Yesterday my decision making skills and leadership skills were put to test. Skills that I'm doubtful I have. But yeah as I was processing the events yesterday, I guess I do have them. Everything happened so fast. My head ached after. Agenda for the day ♣ check periodical exams of students ♣ deposit 50% down payment for bus ♣ arrange jeep transfer going to island ♣ buy snacks and other stuff for induction But then all these changed because of bad weather condition. I was in UPIS and my phone kept ringing, got a lot of text messages. Weather was not cooperating according to texts/calls. I couldn't confirm myself because I don't have internet access. I was only relying on info from Jojie my ATL (assistant team leader) and other members. Apparently according to forecast, there's an incoming typhoon Katring that will enter the country Saturday, Oct. 23. Series of decision to make ♣ deposit 50% down payment for bus pro: we have a sure bus in the event that the dive will...

October 9-19, 2010 Location: Palauig, Zambales The Crew: TL Gene, ATL Kira, ATL Jojie, Ayin, Jed, Pat, Bry Agenda: find a place for Grand Induction The ultimate road trip with only Ayin's GPS phone leading us the way. Left Philcoa 5am. Because we love Bryan, we went all the way to Manila Bay to drop the cursed paddle bag then off to our destination. Breakfast at Jolibbee Subic. Then back on the road. I can't remember what time we arrived on the island though. It was a paradise. Lots of starfishes welcomed us! Crystal clear water and almost fine sand. Manang Auring led us to our cute hut. We scouted the area and looked for the best spot where we can camp and do the rites. For lunch we ate our canned goods. Ansarap! The island was spacious and shady. It is surrounded by trees. There's also water source which is what we need. Time to check the dive site. Front beach had patches of reef and they are scattered from one another. Starfishes there were a lot!
