Honestly, I haven't been to the lake for 8 freaking years! So it's been a really looooong time. T_T

We missed the turn and almost ended up farther up (in Gaas?) but good thing we figured we were heading to no man's land so we turned back and eventually found our way back to the other side of the lake... Whew! The woods can be tricky sometimes...

Take nothing but pictures.
Leave nothing but footprints.
Kill nothing but time.

RameNoodles invade Lake Danao!!! ♥

Lots of pictures to tell the story. Wait for them to load.

...BUY IT IN EVERY COLOR!

That is, if you can afford it.

I bought my first pair of Doc Martens ten years ago. Back in college, when everyone was being a rebel and DMs was a statement, I had to save up every cent I could from my allowance so I could buy THIS pair of boots. I've had boots back in high school, two of them actually. But those were the ones I would wear during Citizens Army Training (CAT) formation and the other steel-toed ones I would wear when it rained. However, they weren't the 1460 8-eye DMs! Not even close...

This year's Valentine's Day sucked... NOT!!! This was the most pricele$$ Valentines Day ever... in my history! :P

It was totally unexpected. Nothing was planned. (The fishball part didn't happen one bit!) Everything was as spontaneous as it could get. Even the whole flowers and chocolate moment, it left me stammering and at a loss for words. I didn't know what to say. I mean, I'm not the type of girl you give chocolates and flowers to because first of all, I have realized long before that VDAY is a spawn of commercialism and all the hype is nothing but a cunning capitalist scheme really. However, this year's VDAY was a total romantic opportunity (especially for my Udon Boy) and aside from the fact that EVERYDAY IS VALENTINES DAY for us, this day definitely went down to our books by absolutely showing love, seeing love, and feeling all the love.

Now let the pictures speak for themselves.

You decide.

Normally I don't write about politics or anything related to our government because it makes me vomit depressed, but the recent blackout/brownouts or power outages has prompted me to blog about it. Why? Because it's annoying and I want to de-stress myself. Now I have a weird feeling these recent turn of events, blame it on the TransCo or whoever you want, I feel has something to do with the automated voting for the upcoming elections. Perhaps they want to do it the old way, maybe because cheating would be so much easier? The "dagdag-bawas" technique has been proven for so many years and had been carried out effortlessly. But what do I know about it, right? I'm just a common law-abiding citizen who does not know where my taxes go. (I don't pay much anyway because I freelance a lot. So yeah.) You know, this is one of the reasons why I shifted from my Political Science course. I figured everything I was taught in class will never happen in real life.

I guess I read and watch too many conspiracy theories to make me ponder this time. But it can't be helped. The signs are everywhere! I mean, I am here at the hotel, writing this piece, and the moment we arrived at the parking lot, I was like, "What in blazes is happening now? Too many cars with red-plates and single digit ones plus uniformed men here. Is there a convention or did these guys just found out how yummy the seafood pizza is at the hotel?"

Once again, my brain cells have died on me and I cannot seem to compose anything for my blog. Ugh. I know, my blog is worthless. It sucks and you shouldn't be reading it. :P

Then again, pictures really paint a thousand words. Words that seem to escape me... FOR NOW. But I promise to take more brain-boosting vitamins so I can blog my heart out the way I used to.

Now what?

Lazy afternoons are back again. After all the viajes that took place, I'm back to spending my days figuring out what to do and where to go to in this crazy yet beautiful provincial town. I wanted to work out and lose weight but alas, my indolence gets the best of me. I can't help it... I'm too bent out of shape to exercise. LOL! A contradiction on its own, just like me.

So this ensued...

You gotta love the coming summer season. Wait, is it El Niño already? Nah... With my Noodle Boy and music = LOVE... Nothing can beat that, not even the heat.

Music is what feelings sound like... ^_^

Once again... It's not the pana, it's the Indian.
You can't be a good photographer if the magic isn't there. ;)

...continuation.

So what is there left to do after a gig? LOL... mais bien sur, we head off to the land reclaimed... in other words, RECLA. :)
