Surigao Day 2: NO MAN IS AN ISLAND


DAY 2.  We spent  our second day visiting 3 islands - Cabgan, Turtle, & Snake Island. It was much more fun because we had the island to ourselves. It wasn't crowded at all, unlike the islands in Brittania, to the point of not knowing were to place ourselves due to insufficient availability of space!





It's nice to have the islands to ourselves. It kinda feels like you own the place but really you don't! (HAHA!) Introvert mode on. Some peace and quiet. And away from all the people, the reality, the world.. Okay. Stop. Waaaay too much introvert feels.


One thing this day was more fun? We were grilling chubby bunnies (Yes, I'm referring to marshmallows) and a big fish that a fisherman who was too nice to have given it us for free! Quote and unquote: "The best things in life are free!"


It was actually my first time to grill marshmallows and eat smores! It was delicious that I kept on grillin. *Shut up calories, I cant't hear you. (Haha!)* The downside only was that it was hot. The weather was hot. The fire was hot. And I'm hot. So it wasn't really the right time to be doing smores. But grilling makes me feel like I'm living in an island-survivor-kind-of-life! Which is fun and at the same time making me feel like a caveman that is living la vida loca on the beach rather than in the cave.

Surigao Weekend (Day 1): SURROUNDED BY BLUES



Hello from the other side of the world where you are surrounded by the blues (No, not emotionally sad!). The sky above you and the sea below you! Spent my weekend in Surigao doing island hopping and our DIY version of it (HAHA) since we weren't contented with the one we were exposed to in Brittania. There are many hidden gems in Surigao that must be explored and delve into! Another ✖ from my bucket list! 😺



I just wore simple, light, and flowy pieces for our first day. And I made the right decision since it was super hot that day that you can feel the rays digging up deep into your skin! (or I might have over-exaggerated it. lol) Though I did not covered up that much I made sure to apply tons of sunscreens with high levels of SPF. ;)





It was a white top & orange bottom kind of day since mostly of us sported that color scheme! (Well just four of us 😂) It was funny since we only noticed that we were matchy-matchy when we got into our destination!

RANT: EXPRESS THE STRESS!


It's funny how one thing can fvcked up your life miserably. Well, on the contrary is not funny at all. Not even a little. It's devastating to know that what you did unintentionally which was driven by fear and pressure could actually deprived you of something you longed to aim for but unfortunately can no longer be attained. Now I don't know what to do anymore. I've lost the drive to live my life. Not even a little bit of motivation to do good and work hard at something you know it can't be yours anymore. People do mistakes but there are mistakes that could imprisoned you and haunt you (for the rest of your life?) Yes, I've been breathing in an atmosphere full of sorrow. My summer is ruined. Practically, my whole life I guess is in ruins and is unable to be reconstructed. It felt like a building that has been demolished after years of strong foundation. Just like that. Gone. My thirst for adventure went from drowning myself in sadness to locking myself up in a four cornered lair. I'm like a vampire who's afraid of the sun but in my case hiding from the reality. I have been isolating myself from everyone. I miss my adventurous and happy-go-lucky self. They say that my life doesn't end here. It doesn't. But it deprived me of something and I've lost. I don't even know where to begin(?) or better yet where to press "continue" with my life. Even my blogging is affected. I guess I'm going to have a long hiatus until I'm okay. I'll be back.. I promise! Posting very soon once I get my sh*t together.


xoxo,
