~endless turmoil~[Syre's Journal]

Its been a long time since I last wrote herer, well the primary cause is my summer class. My schedule doesn't permit me to have the usual things I had. I mean, I leave the house for school at 930 and I leave school at 630 pm, arriving around 7 and I still have to do my homework

Actually this is one of the few times this week that I was able to use the internet with the sole use of leisure. With my demanding subjects (primarily zoology) I just use the net to search and sometimes check my mail (for reasons related again with school). My friends are even teasing me that I don't have a life anymore. Lol..actually that's true, that's the price I have to pay in order to achieve what I want

It seems my schedule right now is preparing me for med school. I mean all those home work, sleeping in the wee hours of the morning plus the tests and quizes. At least I have a slight grasp of what is instore for me in the future (just multiply what I'm doing by 10 fold..lol)

So this is it for me right now, I'm actually writing this while doing my report for zoology (animal like protist for god's sake) and I dont know when I'll be able to write again

I have returned!! I just came back from our trip in Palawan and it was really great!! I left Sunday morning since our flight was at 11:15 and from then on my adventure began. When we arrived a shuttle was waiting for us . They were the ones arranged by my mom's friend so we could go to there house in Quezon, Palawan. The thing that I didn't know was the trip would take about 2 hours and we were going to share the vehicle with other people. Plus the road going to Quezon was anything but smooth, it was a freaking rough road!! Imagine travelling on a road which is mage up by dirt anfd stones..sighs..When we reached there my mom's friend welcomed us and we had the treat of a lifetime. There were tons of food that were only for my family!! God my diet went down the drain. Then they lead us to the place where we were going to stay. I couldn't believe it!! We were staying at a cabin near the sea but there was a catch!! We didnt have TV, aircon and the cabins were really small!! Plus there was a race scheduled that day and I wasn't able to watch it!!! Oh the agony!!! But my baby won anyway so I was really happy though I learned of it through a call

On Monday we went to the Market in Quezon and there I had the shock of my life!! The food there was so cheap!! Imagine, Galungong was 10 bucks per kilo!!! per kilo mind you!! And the dried fishes range from 60-90 pesos per kilo. I really lost my head, my mom aswell!! So she bough tons and tons of dried fishes, her pasalubong to her friends.

Tuesday we went to the famous Tabon cave, the cave were the first inhabitants of the Philippines lived. It was so cool coz we had to ride a boat to go there, plus we had to wade through strong waves that were infront of the mountains entrance. Then we had to climd steep stairs to see these caves. They were really great!! Though a bit tiring, it was worth it since we saw this cave that had vegetation in it and it was in the heart of the mountain, so we had to treck in order to go there!! I really had fun but my parents had a hard time..lol.. then we went to two different islands which means different beaches..hehehe

Wednesday we went to the underground river, but shit the road going there was so bad that my butt hurt!! and we had toi travel for 2 and a half hours so imagine the pain!!! But it was worth it because the place was so beautiful!! You wouldn't believe it and that's why I encourage people to go there because its once in a life time experience!!! Also we went back to Puerto Princesa since we will leave Palawan the next day. There we were treated by my uncles cousin to a place were the food is so good I had so much!! It was the first time I ate sisig made up of sea foods!!! hehehe

Thursday, that's now. We left Palawan 1:00 in the afternoon and arrived here at 2:10. I cant believe it, I'm back and I have to face reality for in a few days I'll go back to school. But it was worth it, although my vacation was short it was worth everything

The start of my vacation

At last I can finally say that my vacation has started. Yeah sure classes ended last March 19 but with the Holy Week I couldn't get out of the house and have fun. LIke every Chatolic within the country, I had to observe the lenten season so I was stuck at home with my books. Atleast I had something to kill the time. So my break actually started last Monday

Monday: My sister and I decided to go to Rockwell since we were given permission by our parents to buy Haviannahs (sorry dont know if that's correct). At last we bought those sought after slippers from Brazil. Well my mom wanted them since we were going to Palawan and they would be useful. The thing that we didnt expect was that my Dad' s best friend was also there. He invited us to go to Market Market because he wanted my Dad to see this car that he is about to buy. So we went Mall hopping, isnt it fun?

Tuesday: It suddenly come up to me that it is so darn hot!!! I mean if we sit down in one corner for about 30 mins without moving we would still be perspiring. So I got this hairbrain scheme to cut my hair. But the thing is it was shorter that what I expected..lol...

Wednesday: My block mates and I decided that this is the day for our get together. So we went to Green Hills and did the thing that we do best when were together, shop, talk and eat. We caught up with the things that are happenin in each one's life during the duration of the break and we alsp lamented on the time we will waste during our summer class

Thursday: Nothing much happened, I just stayed at home and read

Friday: This is the most eventful day this week. I'll just show the pictures so you can find out
