I'm here at this point of the year again, the yearly-summer's-over-celebration is here! Looking back at my summer?! hahahaha.. It was a blast.. beyong blast! super blast! hahah.. super fun.. super fulfilling.. super enriching..

No, it was not spent learning new programs for getting better for our course, though I wish nagawa ko rin yun.. pero I wouldn't trade this summer talaga! just look down my previous posts.. I went places.. did new things! Met knew great people.. grown stronger, wiser.. inlove? pede..

Check also my multiply --> http:// flowflow.multiply.com <-- check out the pics!!

Gadami sa pics yan.. Enjoyed is not the word I truely felt.. could not be described talaga.. From Camp preparations, shooting ng camp videos (uupload ko yan hahaha) , gawaan ng ID, paghouse-to-house to recruit new members, FLT training sa Bulacan, the Youth Camp itself sa St. Michael's at Antipolo, Kid's Camp sa Rogetionist.. Summer Outing sa Tanay, Rizal, Movie days with JJ and Gino and Lev sa SMB (sorry na low budget talaga), tambay sa bahay nila Amiel, pagpunta sa UPLB with my family earlier this summer, tapos GK empowerment last Sunday and GK build itself kahapon!

masaya makatulong..

Gadami.. And I'd like to thank God.. for the numerous experiences... lives that touched me.. moments that I was down.. special people that have touched me.. and that one person who touched me the most.. thank you.. I loved the moments spent with ya so much..

And now I look forward to this new schoolyear, its nice to be able to see the people who I have grow to be more than just my classmates.. looking forward to the infamous Sagada trip!! hopefully makayanan ko maging DL.. I really want to.. aside from that.. just look at my sched at the previous post.. hassle.. di bale.. si God na bahala!!

Pang gabi majority! hahahaha.. No limelight life again?!

I almost cried, it's this type of sched that literrally stresses me and kills me.. I literraly just turn into a mindless drone.. nothing but work/sleep/eat in my mind.. i'm a late-morning to early evening person.. I always like to spend 8pm - onwards at home or at least any other relaxing activity.. unlike now, I'd may be commuting home, because of a potential conflict with Ais' sched in UAPSA..

The sched itself was reminiscent to 3rd year 1st sem.. hahaha..picture picture sa SMB!

And now, the good news!!! I had a great weekend!! It's just weird that for almost every weekend in May, I was out of this lovely home.. let's see.. FLT for our Camp, then the victorious YFC SB2 camp, then the cutee Kids Camp with B2 and B9, then just this weekend, our YFC outing!!!

Let me start Friday night.. Dunno how, but I ended up chatting till 1 or 2 AM, Saturday morning! Iba talaga pag TUBE (The Ultimate Bonding Experience) sa YM confe.. halos for every night this week, puro conference kami.. hehe buti nalang masipag sa YM mga new members namin.. masarap sila maka-TUBE kasi kahit NFF lang kami (New Found Friends) nakakapagshare sila ng mga deep experiences.. kaya umabot kami ng 2 am e! uber TUBE moment with Olive, Che-Che and Janine..

And now Saturday morning.. I woke up about 6, packed my bags then off we went to SMB, the meeting place as usual by us.. greeted Nashee since it was her birthday!!!! happy birthday Nashee!!!!!! a few pics here and there.. and then we're off! To Tanay!! I joined the crew in our EJ-owned, Emvin-driven YFC mobile!! hahahah.. sawang sawa na ako sa Crazy Right Now.. hahahah.. we were dancing away with the boom-boom music.. harot!! hahah sobrang benta talaga kapag kami kami nagsasama.. 5 car convoy kami.. hahaha.. eventually upon reaching Rizal, we got lost due to some navigational problems (hehehe nice Margaux and Paulo!!) heheh.. we were so lost, that we got upon a road that led back to Manila.. hahaha..

Makinig ka, Betty died last night, did she die? YES!

We arrived around lunch time at Sacramento Valley.. some ate their lunches while others already had eaten in the cars.. Emman may utang ka nga pala 100 sakin a.. Lee-an taught a few songs, we had our Worship, bunked in our barrack (heheh singular for barracks daw).. hahah.. then we broke into 4 teams, Emvin-Olive, Emman-Abby, Migi-Cuddles and me-Karen.. we named our team HHWWMPSSP.. dunno why.. si Lee-An kasi e.. heheh..

as we went to the Camp Site, grabe inulan kami.. hahaha.. we stood there for a few minutes dahil di alam kung ano gagawin.. hahahha.. then God made a speech and said "naligaw na kayo at lahat, papayag ba kayo na magpatalo sa ulan?" then we were off, running/walking to the Camp Site..

I remember 3 years ago, we also went here for our outing.. back then we drove to the camp site.. this time we were on foot! heheh.. grabe lakas ng ulan!

Thank God wala naman ata nagkasakit.. hahah.. as we came to the rapelling area.. the rain stopped... and turned into a perfectly sunny afternoon! As in! hahaha.. binasa lang kami!! hahaha.. nagrapel kami.. heheh sabay kami ni Emman, na kapwa duwag pagdating dyan.. hahah.. nagrapel ng sabay.. hahahah.. it was just great that we were cheering each other on.. hahaha..
We conquered this tower!!

then next was the obstacle-rope course, grabe hassle..
tampisaw ba naman sa putikan?! grabe ang dumi namin! hahaha.. bawal KJ e.. hahaha.. then we walked back to the Camp Site, kasabay ko mga kateam ko, then some ran ahead, naiwan kami nila Leonard, Karen and Sheila.. haha.. pagod na si Sheila kaya nagpahila samin pataas.. heheh natakot siya sa manok.. ganda ng lugar talaga.. hay.. presko talaga.. ibang iba sa Manila..

then go, we swam at the swimming pool.. haha, we also held a game there.. heheh.. grabe, haha.. I was shiverring.. hahah.. blue na daw lips ko sabi nila.. hahaha.. di na kayanan ng macho (nyerks) body ko e.. hahaha.. and after that, we had our dinner na.. It started raining again.. semi-open pa naman yung Caimio hall.. heheh.. halos kakatuyo palang ng jacket ko, buti nalang may bubong.. hahah ang lamig ng hangin.. weeeee presko talaga.. iniram na muna ni Nhica, my NCF (new close friend sabi niya) yung jacket ko.. haha..sarap ng dinner.. joke time kami saglit.. then broke into our teams, then prepared a short something for E-Night.. hehe kahit pagod na kami, syempre okei lang..

hehe obviously Team Beh (Emvin-Olive) had a hilarious performance hahaha.. benta.. tama ba naman gayahin ako Olive? lika nga rito.. then with that, nagworship kami.. then sleepy time na.. heheh.. nagTUBE muna kami ni Nash at Emman sa top bunk namin ng saglit.. medyo natigil.. la magawa sa barrack kaya nag langit lupa mga tao.. tama ba naman magtatakbo sa loob?!

Tulog... then Sunday!! grabe mass daw.. sa gitna ng kawalan ba naman yung chapel!! kung mahaba yung hike namin papunta ng chapel, this one was way longer.. grabe.. naririnig na namin yung boses ng nasa chapel, pero di namin makita.. mahaba habang lakaran talaga.. kakafagod..

parang SMB - to Dona Soledad.. yung distance sa sobrang layo, haha.. half lang ng mass nabutan ko.. yung iba mas late pa.. and syempre there was the hike back.. namiss ko yung mga picture picture kasi pagod na talaga ako.. hahah.. kasabay ko si Nhica paakyat.. si Nina rin nung malapit na.. hinanap ko agad water pagbalik sa hall.. muntik na ata di natuloy yung Splunking? Cave-Exploration daw yun.. heheh.. tumuloy about 30+ of them, hahah jampacked in 2 cars (our YFC-mobile and a Kate's Adventure), Nhica went home since my Cebu trip pa daw siya, we all said our goodbyes to her..
Grabeh.. Ilan sila dyan sa YFC mobile?! 18!

Di na ako sumama along with Cuddles, Steffi, Abby Aira, EJ, Paolo, JR, Miguel.. heheh binantayan ko sila by sleeping while the guys were playing Bball.. nagTUBE si Aira at Cuddles ng saglit.. si Steffi naman was doing her assignments (grabeh sipag) natulog si Cuddles maya maya.. si Steffi at Abby rin.. haha.. ang sarap ng tulog lang..

Cave-Exploration and Waterfalls moment nila.. I missed this..

Welcome galing sa mga katutubong naninirahan sa kweba!

Inside the Cave..

Isang normal na araw sa loob ng kweba..

Water Trekking

Tampisaw sa may tubigan!!

With that we all went home.. hahah.. kumpleto parin syempre yung YFC mobile.. sumayaw nanaman kami haha.. favorite nanamin yung casette tape na yun.. grabeh.. hahah nag TUBE kami ng mga guys pabalik.. at nabuo ang Maix fans club!!! awwwww.. we lab ya Maix! hahahah.. we did that.. the outing ended..

43 teens, 5 cars, 2 days, 1 outing.. I miss it already..
