PALAWAN: Day 3 'LAST DAY'

Hallooooo!!!

Not much pictures and activities during our last day so here it is. And I told you I'm not that good with memory so I actually can't remember a lot of things that happened during our last day. Lol.


Bye Palawan! :(

BUT 1000000000000000000000/10 WOULD VISIT AGAIN AND EXPLORE EVERY ONE OF YOUR ISLANDS! ;))) THANKS, PALAWAN!!

PALAWAN: Day 2

DAY 2! YAY!

Puerto Princesa Subterranean River









It was hella scary and dark inside but I enjoyed it despite a bat's pee dropping on my shirt... Lol!

Sheridan Beach Resort and Spa

I loved it here! This hotel is hella expensive but I would LOVE to stay here, not kidding! The pool is amazing, the food is also quite good. (I forgot to mention on my 1st day blog that I am not a fan of sea food so the food wasn't that appealing to me. Quite opposite with what I look like, yeah? HAHA) 

The beach front is also a dream! AND THE SAND IS FINE AF!!!! (CLAP CLAP NATURE)






After this, we changed to our semi-formal attires and headed to the city hall to meet the mayor and again, as the last 2 batches, he was M.I.A. (the rapper. Kidding!) They made us face the... I forgot his name and position... guy that was an ex-celebrity and was late. Ha! I wasn't happy about it. At all. Idk, maybe I was just disappointed because the Mayor seemed like he held a lot of promise. I kinda like him. I like Grandpas too.

We also went to the Crocodile Farm where we saw, held and ate crocodiles! How fun! There was also like an end-of-the-world-esque mini zoo. Lol. I couldn't take any pictures because again, my phone wanted to sleep and didn't want to be woken up unless with electricity.

Baker's Hill

Here is basically where you buy baked goods and enjoy their weird but fun park(?) of statues and figures that are generally entertaining. I didn't buy much here. My family isn't fond of food as pasalubongs and the cashews are a hundred pesos in a tetra(?)-ish pack! Wow!!! I loved the shake they sell here, though! After this, we went to the place where locals(?) make pasalubong out of dried leaves and again, my phone had no charge so no pics.





KaLui Restaurant

I'm not sure if we had dinner at Kaliu first or went to the downtown wholesale pasalubong place but I had no pictures taken there so I'll just put that here. XD. 

LOVED THEIR FOOD! PORK AND PORK AND VEGGIES AND A FEW SEAFOOD BUT YAY NO ALL SEAFOOD! And loved the banana dick salad buko thingy! The white sauce on the head of the dick banana didn't taste too good. It was actually the sauce for the fish fillet. I wish I could untaste that. Hate fish as food! FISH ARE FRIENDS, NOT FOOD!! XD

Also loved this place because we eat barefoot and the atmosphere was amazing and the place was flooding with art. I wanna go back!!








That's what's all I remember, folks! Lol! Toodles!!! x

PALAWAN: Day 1

Hello, friends! It's been a while since I've written a post... and this is actually my 2nd official post here, Lol. Anyways, last March 16th to 18th, I was in a school trip to paradise... I mean, Palawan. It honestly didn't feel like a school trip. It felt like I was just with my friends since everything was chill- including the teachers.

Pre-departure:
Call time: 4am.

(Jade and I arrived a few minutes shy of 4am-but didn't get left behind by the bus. Thank God.) We had no sleep. At all. We've actually planned on sleeping at least for a few hours but we ended up playing. Typical us.

We also planned on taking pictures the whole way there but somehow, my charger decided to just stop working and we were left with 12% of battery and she didn't bring anything for us to take pictures with and it was all up to me and my poor, tired iPhone.

Airport:

At the airport, I was literally shaking. My feet were cold (partially my fault- wore sandals). Honestly, I get so excited about airports! I'm not really sure why, though, Maybe because I knew I was somehow escaping my reality for something new... (how deep!! lol)

My plane ticket to Palawan via Cebu Pacific. 
 My phone finally had juice when I took that photo- all thanks to Mikay Elloso! Thank God for friends! :)

One more picture:

Our plane tickets: Top: Jade Lorenzo Left: Natalie Griffin Bottom: Me! Right: Mikay Elloso

Arrival:

The flight was smooth and fine. Some first time flyers were being noisy, especially those people sitting by the window- they were extra noisy but the sky was really pretty that day too so I guess it was ok to be noisy(?) since they were obviously amazed by something they've seen for the first time.

With Paul Nieves, who was my seat buddy the whole flight to Palawan and then back home.

A picture of Jade and I with the airplane behind upon arrival! Yay!

We were immediately told to change to our swimming clothes since we were gonna go Island Hopping immediately. The first island we visited was Cowrie Island.

Cowrie Island:




The two sunken Chinese ships we saw on the way to Honda Bay/Cowrie Island.
Luli Island:

I had the most fun here! The water was hella deep but then again, I know how to swim. LOL! This was our snorkeling spot and there were lots of fish and some corals. I swam without my vest so I had to keep afloat and hurt my sprain by so much paddling in the water. There was also a diving board there so I jumped (I have no idea how to dive, if I did, it'd probably end up as a belly flop). I didn't have much pictures here cause my phone decided to sleep again and I was in the water most of the time so there was no time for pictures.



Luli Island
Citystate Asturias Hotel

After island hopping, we went straight to the hotel. I honestly don't remember much. Lol. But we always swam and the girls and I were always taking pictures. lol
The hotel hallway.

The hotel pool. Taken after dinnertime.
This is it fro day 1, I guess. Toodles! x

8:46: No Pressure

HELLO EARTHLINGS




I honestly have no idea what to post sooo I'll be writing whatever comes to mind.
This is actually not my first time running a blog. I ran a fashion blog a few years back but I never really got to it. I guess I forgot about it then because I was graduating from high school and I was super busy... Whew.


I don't know why but what I'm writing feels as if it gives off a sad note. WHY? I'M HAPPY!! HAHA

Anyways, midterms are coming... No pressure. You can do this, Pat.

Now 10:47. (I ate dinner halfway through writing this. Also, I had no idea what to write. Don't judge. :p)
