I spent the whole Saturday out of Makati *yippee*.. 5 of us (me, Shree, Su Yong, Choco and Kirby) went to Tagaytay, it's almost 2 hours drive from Ascott and it's highland (place like Cameron Highlands). Thanks to Kirby and Choco for driving us around. We'll be stuck doing nothing in Makati if it's not because of them.We went to the zoo first. It was small and not so many animals inside. Took lotsa pictures as usual. Told them I wanted to go Taal volcano but it looks far from where we are at that moment. Lucky me, when we got out from the zoo, a man offered us a boat ride for 2500php to that island. We had to go down to the lake through scary, winding and slippery route. It took us less than half an hour in the boat to reach the jetty. Everyone decided to walk up to the crater at first because people there wanted 850php per person for the horse ride (expensive!)...we started the so called journey through small pathway full of horse poops for less than 5 minutes before everyone decided to take take the horse instead *LOL* hilarious..but it costs us 500php this time (less expensive). The journey up the hill was indeed painful for the guys, if you know what I mean. What awaits us was awesome. The view of the Taal volcano crater is beautiful and scary at the same time. You can see hot gas coming out from between rocks. Taal volcano is presently inactive but they say it might erupt again *gahh* we hang around at the top of the crater for quite some time before riding the horse down the hill. Again it was even more painful journey down the hill on the horse for the guys. We went back to mainland and had our late lunch at Dencios since Shree was starving. Again another great view of sunset from the restaurant but too bad it's cloudy. Overall, it was fun fun fun and I would love to go there again *grin*
Currently chatting with my darling mother and grandmother..stupid Windows Live,I can't call them, hence I have to wait while mummy typing away. Mummy and technology equals to disaster from my end *LOL* As much as I love her, she's just too slow when it comes to typing or any computer related stuff *grin*
It was a long day for me today. Kinda tiring too. Had to compile all the calibration scores from ANZ and SEA coaches for consolidation. Back to back calibration discussion tomorrow..oh noes..
Thought of watching movie or anime tonight but my eyes feel so heavy. I was browsing thru FHM 100 sexiest woman 2009 magazine (don't ask me why haha) and came across this 20 year old Filipino-Chinese kawaaii looking girl. Apparently she's a Cosplay Queen. Cool eyh..Her name is Alodia Gosiengfiao (wierd name yeah I know)..Oh crap..connection damn slow.. out~
Am one happy girl with bloated tummy now. Had awesome butter naan and chicken tandoori at New Bombay with Shree and Su Yong for dinner. Do you know it's friggin hard to find halal food here in Manila? Was excited when we saw the restaurant earlier *grin*. Instant noodles has been my main meals for the past week. So now you understand how just a butter naan can make me happy.
We walk from Glorietta to Landmark to Greenbelt. Watched Ugly Truth and again happy because they do not cut any scenes (unlike Malaysia)..I hope I can watch New Moon here next month. They don't have crappy subtitles too which is good.
I gotta do my work later and I'm feeling full and lazy. Not good not good. Another busy week next week with calibration and new "babies" to look after in Manila. I'm loving my room here yipeee...
