Sige!! Chika pa!

AND THE BOOZE are over here....

They are having this program at the town plaza. Andun yung Silent Sanctuary to perform.

We went inside this bar and it was soooper nostalgic!!! Kasi naman...sinusundan kami ng Eheads! Eheads na nman yung tugtog!

Dinner was lovely! The food and the place was great. We were so full! Kalahati food tapos kalahat hangin dahil sa kakatawa!!!

And this is where we stayed....

Syempre nauna na ko sa banyo!!! We were completely in love with the place! Our room has 8 bunk beds... Spanish style of course! Nakakapanindig balahibo as in! Para syang dorm ng isang old spanish school...

Our hotel is the same hotel where Tom Cruise stayed in when he shot "Born in the 4th of July in Ilocos". We didnt succeed in looking for that same bed he spent the night with.

Part 7 - Marcos Shrine

PART 8 - PAOAY CHURCH

PART 9 - Pangil Beach

And then Vigan .... Not!!

Part 5 - Malacanang of the North

We had this Lunch in Carinderia somewhere down the road... as in literal na somewhere down the road. It was that Sunday of the Pacquiao and Hatton Match. We've been receiving updates and text messages about the fight. We were informed that Pacquaio won after 2 rounds. We saw this group of tricylce drivers watching the fight in a shed. We asked our driver to stop for a minute for us to have a peek of the fight. We were all yelling that Pacman won after two rounds.. and it was too late for us to realize that the local broadcast havent started yet... Malamang! Nabadtrip yung mga driver na nagpupustahan! weheheheheh

PART 6 - SANDDUNES (somewhere lang)

Our driver told us na dito daw nagshoot yung Panday! Kaya baba! But you know... kailangan kong pangatawanan yung family emergenycy...kay mega cover my face! Hehehehe

Mula Norte papuntang Sur!!!

Part 1 - Breakfast

It's a Sunday!! We dont have enough time!! Move! Move! Move!!

We were all drained out with energy given those booze from last night. All, except for Jeje, who was responsible for keeping our acts straight. We had breakfast at Jollibee and luckily, we met this jeepney driver who offered to tour us around Ilocos and then drive us all the way to Vigan!

Part 2 - Laoag Museum

Part 3 - Sinking Bell Tower

Part 4 - Fort Ilocandia

We missed the bus that left on schedule. Not to worry though, we were dropped down the highway right after we had lunch at nakipara na lng sa mga bus na on the way to Laoag naman. That was 4pm in the afternoon ata. It was dark when we reached Laoag.

Our maaasahang organizers, Herbert and Jayjay was able to find this nice hotel. We're in this one big room with 12 beds, 3 restrooms and 1 big jacuzzi!! For only 3300 petot!! Nice!!

We went out for dinner and tried to look for some giddy place to hangout! Pero zero... wala eh! It was nice going around Laoag at night.. parang anytime eh huhulihin ka ng mga guardia sibil! hehehe

At nagpabugbog na nga kami sa mga alon sa Blue Lagoon da bah?? ... But no... marami kaming kargang battery. We stopped by Kabigan Falls. We were greeted by a pour of drizzles... few more drizzle power and it could be called rain...

It was a 10-15 minute walak. The strong drizzle was just a tease though and we were greeted again by the warm sunshine few steps after we started the treck.

The water was really cold and refreshing! Yun nga lang... andaming tao!

Few meters away from the viaduct is the Blue Lagoon... merong 20 petot na entrance fee.

I just have to say... this beach is remarkably stupendous!!! Para akong nasa set ng Lost ... this beach surely tops my list kung ganda lang din naman ang pagbabasehan. But it was not friendly at all. We were attacked by killer waves...as in killer waves kasi namatay yung camera ni Ansie... hinabol kami sa shore... kaya ayun nabasa!!!

We were on the lose the time we set foot on the pristine white sand! Naknampucha! Akalain mo yun..gumamit ako ng word na "pristine"?? hehehe

We were chasing and were chased by the waves!!! Nabugbog ako sobra!!

Then the girls sported their packages ... lovely for some...but was really disturbing for me! Wahahahahah!!! Peace!

It was almost lunch and there are tons of places to go... we decided to go back and explore more of the northern part.... we passed by Bangui Windmills 15 mins after leaving the lighthouse... and then we passed by our resort after another 15 mins and then ... 5... 15 ...20....30 mins after... potah...san ba tyo pupunta??? Aparri??

I was sitting at the backride... the tricycle we're at has no roof at all ... so hello sunshine!!! Ultraviolet rays and all cancerous elements are welcome to penetrate my skin and give me a good burn. Eh tsong! Kamusta naman ang family emergency na excuse ko sa opis para sa absence ko dabah????

And then we were welcomed by drizzles and then sunshine and then drizzles again and so on...sino ba yung palipat lipat ng channel??? Parang baliw yung ulan dun mhen...and as per our driver...ganun daw talaga dun...

And then ... we had that marvelous view of Pasaleng Bay. It was raining on the far part of the ocean, that view was quite scary and the waves seem deadly. We went down at Patapat Viaduct which was currently under construction. We were told that Cagayan was just few meters away. Amazing... we had that urge to endure that few meter just to step foot at Cagayan...wala lang...may masabi lng na nakarating kami ng Cagayan...heheheh

We weren't able to get inside the lighthouse coz the line was too long and they were about to close for lunch.

The view though, was still not less than truly breathtaking . That's the majestic South China Sea right on your face mhen!!! Its amazing to see how those shades of blue blend at that spot where the sky meets the sea... and there starts some cheesy poetry .... hhehehe

The Luxe - Robinson's Galleria East Wing Lower Ground Floor

Together with the sobrang lupet na summer heat... bumabagyo naman ng stress inde lng sa opisina kundi pati sa bahay. So Van, it's time for some pampering.... FOOOOTSPAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!

I have some other options, but I have to stay wholesome. Kakatapos lng ng Holy Week... heheheh ....

Last time I saw Gracia ( pronounced as Grrrashah) was Valentine's Day. I even missed her Birthday a couple of weeks ago coz I was in Palawan for that weekend. There's no other purrfect gurrlfrrend to spend this Mission Stress Free Lakwatsa.....

Nikkei couldnt make it... butihing employee... OT on a Saturdeeee .... So kami na lng ni Grashing!!!!

We met sa Galleria ng 7pm. It was supposed to be 5pm... knowing the both of us... we had our own excuses .... Inamin din ni Gracia na na-late sya coz she wants to finish the re-run of a Piolo movie in Cinema One... and me on the other hand... tulooooog!!!! So 7pm it is!

We went to the Luxe. Gracia had the basic soak + clean + paint for both hands and feet, while I had the uber nasty swak na swak refloxology massage on my feet. Thank you kay Ate Eva who did a great job in squeezing the stress out of my system.

Also... we'd like to thank Robert Pattinson, Chace Crawford and Ed Westwick for being with us during the whole process of stress alleviation. They were actually on the couch as well. Try this sometimes... heheheheh ...

While having your massage or nails done... browse through hot glossy pages and imagine Pattinson squeezing your toes and cuddling your ankles. Or Chace Crawford painting your nails while Westwick gives you some soothing hand massage. Teh... laway mo teh.... tsk tsk tsk!!! Cut na raw sabi ni direk... heheheheh ....

Next stop .... to NMB (National Mall of Beckies) aka "GAYWAY"... aka GATEWAY CUBAO!!! heheheheeheh

Next on our Pamper-yourself-to-murder-all-existing-stress list is to watch a movie. Mejo maarte kami eh... if we're together...dapat pag movie laging sa Gateway ...

We had this dilemma of what to watch for the whole week

Zac Efron in 17 Again or Derek Ramsey in T2???

To quote Grashing - Dun tayo sa mas abot kamay!! T2!!! (kasi napanood na nya yung 17 again).

Sorry ha! Pero I was really looking forward on seeing the movie and was extremely disappointed right after. We fondly call it TT instead of T2 ... heheheheh ... .

It's supposed to be a great film!! It has all the ingredients to be one ... Marya, Chito Rono, Star Cinema, a promising child actress... and what do we get ... another film that could go to trash. If you plan to see this movie... watch re-runs of Wansapanataym instead. I'll have a review coming up (as if big deal heheheh). Sorry di talaga ako mapakali (may social relevance kunware..heheh)!

Grasha paid for dinner... heheheheh ... swak!!! Dun kami sa Burgoo since that place had a significant role during Grashing's Bday Weekend and I have to see it all and re-imagine Jego holding a pink Tulip as he enters the retaurant and gave it to Grasha..... haaaaaaaay ... sweet!!

In a Burgooic tradition... we left some doodles... some disturbing doodles... hehhehehehe .... Try to figure out whose name that is!!! Ending ng Flames namen ... Lovers daw kami! heheheheh

We werent able to finish the food since we need to catch the movie. Pinabalot, kinain namin sa sinehan at inubos sa Gloria Jeans while we look at the endless parades of Beckies... Haaaaaaaay Gayway ... nyeheheheh...

1230am... and yes the night is young..... few walks away.... just a few kanto from Gayway ... is "Gaynay" (Gaynaytion) heheheheheh..... Again... for the Nth time this year... welcome to P2... taroooooooosh...... and as usual di sila pumalya.... We were laughing all night....

Sa sobrang suki na namen dito... eh memorize na nmen ang mga performers... This is the longest time I stayed in P2. It's actually my first time to stay until 445am. Weird kasi tong si grashing! Di ko alam kong anong psychology ng utak neto at nahuhumaling sa mga Bekz... keber na blue na yung mga labi namin sa kakainom ng Infinit!!!... Go lng!!

The night was soooper fun. Though dalawa lng kami, punong puno nmn ng mga odd and happy characters... heheheheh .... We had some new found frendz... kamusta kina Teh (yung laging nakikisindi ng yosi at teh ng teh), kay Justine (yung nanguha ng number), kay Lolo (yung hubaderong mashonda na hottie), kay Manolo (yung Man ni Lolo), kay Tapia, kay Amanda, kay Zsazsing at sa lahat ng mga Bekz na nakaantabay sa masikip na hallway papuntang banyo. O ayan... nagawa ko na ang mga pabati niyo!! hehehehehe

Thanks for the lovely and definitely crazeee night Grashing!!! Potah kah... nalampasan ko pa yung pagtilaok ng mga manok sa pag-uwe ko!!! Haggard mare!!!! Pero ang sayaaaaaaa!!!!
