A View From The Top - Pico de Loro, 6/26/10

1 - 2 - 3 - 4

It's been a while since i posted a song lyrics here. So far, i have this compilation in the office courtesy of excel. I haven't quite figured out how to link a particular MP3 file without it being too big of a file (i now have over 70 song lyrics!), all of which are somehow my favorites. Here's one song lyrics with a very catchy tune and wordings when you listen to it. 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 by the Plain White Ts. :)
1-2-1-2-3-4
Give me more loving than I've ever had
Make me feel better when I'm feeling sad
Tell me I'm special even though I know I'm not
Make me feel good when I hurt so bad
Barely getting mad
I'm so glad I found you
I love being around you
You make it easy
Its as easy as 1-2-1-2-3-4
There's only one thing
To Do
Three words
For you
(I love you) I love you
There's only one way to say
Those three words
That's what I'll do
(I love you) I love you
Give me more loving from the very start
Piece me back together when I fall apart
Tell me things you never even tell your closest friends
Make me feel good when I hurt so bad
You're the best that I've had
And I'm so glad I found you
I love being around you
You make it easy
It's easy as 1-2-1-2-3-4
There's only one thing
To Do
Three words
For you
(I love you) I love you
There's only one way to say
Those three words
That's what I'll do
(I love you) I love you
(I love you) I love you
You make it easy
It's easy as 1 2 1 2 3 4
There's only one thing
To Do
Three words
For you
(I love you) I love you
There's only one way to say
Those three words
That's what I'll do
(I love you) I love you
(I love you) I love you
1-2-3-4
I love you
(I love you) I love you

Travel Fun

When i was a kid, i often enjoy long trips going somewhere. Regardless of where it is, how long the stay was, I see to it that I get to have the window seat so I can enjoy the scenery.

Now that I am grown up (but still a child at heart), I still have the same passion for travelling. I don't have the luxury of time and money to do so, but I do so whenever I can. I have 2 planned activities that are lined up.

This coming saturday, I will be joining a group of mountaineers in climbing Pico de Loro. This will be the second mountain that I will be climb, the first being Mt. Manabu. I am now feeling the same excitement that I felt when we were about to climb Manabu. I felt excitement, intensified, and energized. Somehow, a good nature trip does wonders for me. Here is the itenerary that they have prepared:

0330 Registration at Mcdonalds El Pueblo, Ortigas
0400 ETD to Mt. Pico de Loro
0700 ETA DENR / jump-off point
0800 Start trek. Note that jump-off point is 10 minutes' walk away from DENR
0845 ETA rest station, Basecamp 1
1200 ETA summit, lunch
0100 start descent to Magnetic Hill
0600 ETA jump-off point.
1630 ETD to Manila
1930 ETA Manila

Next stop would be our trip to Bohol and Cebu. I was lucky enough to be informed by my office friend, Rosa, that there was a seat sale from PAL. So, tagging my friends along, we will all be spending 3 days on both locations. Our iteneraries are as follows:

Day 1 - flight to Bohol, city tour for me and Rosa and her brother. In the afternoon, my friends will be arriving as well, we will be checking in on a hotel where we will lounge and swim, and laugh, and gossip all we want.
Day 2 - Danao. This is where we will be doing some adventure activities such as zip line and bungee jump.
Day 3 - Cebu city tour and flight back home.

I am anticipating a not-so-relaxing vacation, but this will also be the first time that I will be riding a plane, so there.

FUN FUN FUN!!!

A Desperate Move

all things considered, i consider myself a nice person. i don't harm anybody, i see to it that i never step on anybody just to get things to turn to my advantage. i was once played a fool by a group of people before, but that was all behind me. i was able to move on and put the past behind me. a recent event however, made me laugh so hard it hurt.

below is a conversation that i did not expect, much less the person involved. please take into consideration that after 5 years of being in a relationship with the same person, i knew right away who i was talking to.

legend:
ckmm20 - ako (joanne)
babolface20/ mj dirdams - roshel gutierrez pretending to be mj

if i had one regret, that would be was when i ignored her friend request in fb. had i approved it, then the account would have been tagged as well. enjoy!

Time Out

I was reading my earlier post and somehow felt as if it was kind of angry. To clarify a few things, it has not nothing to do with vengeance. I am merely speaking whatever it is in my heart now.

On another note, today is father's day. i greeted someone else's dad but have not greeted my own. i don't have his contact number nor my half sister's. the only means of greeting him is through my half sister's fb account. so much for being a pathetic greeter.. haha! Maybe i'll talk about my daddy issues soon, or maybe not. I have too much laziness on my plate to care anyway.

Never Again

That will be the last time that you will order me around. I can understand that you are upset because of all the bullshit that is happening to you right now, but i will never understand why it will be my fault for making it happen. I made my point, yes, and that person deserves it.

Too bad. I was beginning to think that you changed for the better. Looks like it was the otherwise. What they call "circumstances change, but the people doesn't" is true. You are the same cut from the old shell that was from before. You don't care if someone was treated badly, wag lang mapahiya.

The deleted post will definitely find its way back to this blog. Being a nice person that i am, I'll just wait for the right time. Never again will i be made as if to feel like trash just because I made a decision to expose someone who thought and made me a fool. Never again will i trust someone who would play me as if i am the same naive person from before.

As they constantly say in facebook, when I'm good, I'm very good. But when I'm bad, I'm even better. The fates is playing their part, and I will ride along and enjoy the view as it goes.

summer

i initially posted 2 pictures from our team building. we went to cagbalite, quezon. a scenic and quiet paradise for those who want to get away from it all. the water so clear, the temperature just right, it was the perfect way to relax. here are some of the pictures from the place..

woah!
