Sunday was supposed to be a rest day but it turned out otherwise. I got a very stressful Sunday. I woke up thinking it was still Saturday night. I slept 12-hours straight. I immediately checked my mobile phone and whoa I’ve got 48 text messages received. I took time to read through each message while I was making my way out of the bedroom. I wondered, why the house is so desolate…. it turned out to be 230am! omg. I supposed to be with friends on a Saturday night. And yeah I was more than 4 hours overdue. Clumsy me. Still I was carefully digesting the fact that I wasn’t able to wake up as planned. I called up my friends and it seems that I can’t talk to them clearly because background noise is deafening. I tried sending them text messages but to no avail. Its either they’re mad at me or they’re just drunk to even bother. And so I turned on the computer and wasted my time blog hopping and browsing. I went back to sleep 530am. Couple of hours later, I woke to my landlady’s call for the garbage collection. Argh! And it was still 8am. Argh again. Anyway, now that my body has fully awakened I took the time cleaning up the room and sorting my ever growing pile of laundry. I admit My Laundry is really giving me a headache and I’m serious. lol. It was 930am when I was finally done with the first few pieces and I am already exhausted. I had my breakfast, prepared by my house mates. It was a good meal. The weather is giving me a headache too. I was supposed to complete all my laundry and it seems the weather is not cooperating. The lazy I am, I folded my clothes back to the laundry basket and stayed in front of the PC until 12noon, which is just in time for lunch. We had our lunch accompanied by Ice Cream. Yum. It was already 2pm when my most of my friends sent an invite for another round of beer drinking session. I carefully plotted my Sunday night itinerary, only to find out that a long lost friend sent me text message asking me to have a cup of coffee at Starbucks 8pm. Amazing, after 8 years of not having to see each other we’ve managed to connect the gap. Amazing. Again. Lol. It was 12midnight that finally we called it a night. As for me… the night is still young. I went out with a couple of my colleague-friends for a round of beer session. It all ended up 4am.

Omg. I need to sleep now. I need to. And seriously speaking I need to detoxify myself from all the bad habits. Seriously.

I need to quit smoking. I need to slow down beer in-take. I need to get at least a 6-8 hours of sleep everyday. And this starts now. bleh.

get a life. 

Indeed, last weekend was so much fun.

After weeks of preparation and careful planning finally our team’s Bantayan Island Invasion has come true.

Friday, February 29, 2008 - This is the last night of February. Last night to make up and pass the month’s metrics. Everybody was anxious. Everybody wants to end the shift and run off to the beach. I thought it was just an ordinary night at work but as my log-out time draw nearer my mood changed - I was on a hype.

Saturday, March 1. 2008 - 6AM- I logged out and went home to pick up my stuff for the weekend getaway. 9AM- The team convened in Skyrise and though we still didn’t have sleep we drank 6 bottles of beer. 10AM- We were on our way to Hagnaya Wharf. By 12:30PM we were at Hagnaya Wharf. Most of us were so hungry that we settled for a quick-grilled pork and chicken for lunch. 1:30PM- It was about time for the ferry to leave. Bantayan Island is about an hour and a half by ferry. It was almost 3PM when finally the ferry docked at the port of Sta. Fe, Bantayan Island. Our resort’s tenant were already at the port ready to pick us up. He didn’t have a hard time looking for us coz we were the first one’s to embark from the ferry. And yeah… we looked like tourists. Finally, 3:30PM we were at the beach. Our reservation was at Sugar Beach, in the municipality of Sta. Fe. Settling down our stuff inside our 2-bedroom apartment style cottage. Yay! most of my friends were running off to the beach was already camwhoring. Some of us were too exhausted to even move our butts away from the cottage and yet we manage to start drinking the first 3 cases of beer. By the time it was almost 5pm we decided to take a swim on crystal blue waters of Bantayan. We waited for the Sunset too. By the time it was dark, we headed off to the cottage and yeah… dinner. It was 730pm, when everybody finished off their hearty dinner made of grilled pork and we started to drink another round of beer and gin all at the same time. It was 10pm, when some of our colleagues got undressed and went swimming with only their undies on. lol. By 11PM, we called it a night. Sleep. Exhausted. Drunk.

Sunday, March 2, 2008 - 630AM - Breakfast. 7AM - we went off to the beach and took a swim. 30 minutes after we opened our first case of beer for the day. And yes! we drank while the sun was heavily rising up the horizon. Talking about basking in the sun. By 930AM we drank the last drop of our 2nd case of beer. The sun was too hot to handle so we decided to take a swim again. The drunkards that we are, we decided to bring 2 beer bottles and a glass in the middle of the water and took turns drinking the beer. lol. It was almost 1030am when 4 other friends and colleagues arrived to escape the city too. We changed clothes and headed off to Bantayan in preparation another round of big hearty lunch. On our way back, we drank 2 bottles of beer again. 1AM Lunch. Lunch. Lunch. It was 2PM when we started boating on the shallow waters while the others were busy playing cards in the shorelines with beer again. By 4PM we played “patentero” - it was fun really, though we’re already adults. lol. Nightfall, we we’re in the waters playing a so-called Team Building game - The Highest Pyramid. Unfortunately, we lost. lol. Dinner at 7PM. Beer, beer and more beer until 12midnight. Sleep.

Monday, March 3, 2008 - Just like Sunday, we had our breakfast right before 7AM. By 930AM, we were on our way to what they call the Virgin Island for a snorkeling adventure. It took us 20 minutes to get there. But the boat ride was, again, accompanied with beer. lol. We took the time to explore the wonders of the underwater. It was already 11AM when we headed back to the resort, packed up our stuffs, ate the remaining breakfast food and prepare ourselves to leave the island and back to reality.

I know it’s too early to get tanned but in the end, we all had so much FUN. Next stop? Boracay? hehe…
