Trip Feat!

I'm quite the bum lately when it comes to blogging, I apologize. Though last month, a major feat has been accomplished by my best friends and I. We had planned to go to the Philippines together last year. It really is quite the hazy dream. After all, there's a lot of us, and it's not like it's another US city and it's definitely not a week long kind of vacation. The Philippines is far, and the trip would last for weeks; not to mention, a lot more money than the usual Vegas trip is needed. But you know what....

WE WENT LAST MONTH!



My friends are awesome! Who knew we will actually pull through?!? This was an amazing experience and I can't wait until we do it again. World, watch out!

Nike Logo it Out

Apparently, pretty much my whole vacation that I filed for this year was approved by my boss. Eh, maybe he didn't approve one or two days here and there but, I feel confident that it shouldn't be a problem. My "Hello, Philippines... again" moment is closer to realization. I was able to chat with my cousin, Tan from the Philippines today for a good while. I told him the news about the approved vaca. He told me about a few places in PI I should look up on the internet; some places I may be interested in. 

Elephant Island:
This island, according to my cousin attempts to mimic or give the impression of ala Greece, Santorini. This is the only decent picture I can find on the internet. It sounds like a cool place though. Hmm... that island does look like an elephant lying on its side, doesn't it?

Eskaya Beach Resort in Bohol
 



It looks beautiful! But, I heard it's a bit pricey. But to be able to relax in a place like that should be amazing. It sure would beat my hospital shifts!

Of course, there are the new "super clubs" around. He told me to check these two out:

Club Bureau


Club Manor in Libis
Tan told me that despite all these new places, the good ol' Embassy is still a hot spot. 

For all I know, these places are hella old already, but to me they are new. The fact that I may be possibly setting foot back home again excites me. What will make this trip more special is the fact that I am going with my friends. I'm really hoping that it pulls through. I'm long overdue for some major R&R.
