Day of Play: A Visual Diary

Last week, our team jetted off to Palawan for 2 days of work on an event we had been planning since December. A few of us stayed behind for another day to explore the city: 

Kinabuch welcomed us with loving arms and a deadly concoction of blue liquid, Bacardi, and fire. 

Sustenance is, of course, a must and it came in the form of Bona’s Chaolong which was as delicious as it was cheap.

We head our hearts set on conquering the ubiquitous Honda Bay, but the weather would not permit. Settled for a piece of sand and sea just a few minutes away from the city proper. 

The place looked kinda sketch, sand wasn’t the best, the ocean was a bit chilly, but the company was stellar. 

And really, at the end of the day, that’s all you need.

Last week:

I jetted over to Palawan for an event, returned to Manila for an evening, and traversed a mountain down south over the weekend. Will post pretty pictures as soon as I get my hands on them. 

My ultimate dream in life is to watch Paul McCartney play any Beatles song live. If this should happen, I would die an extremely happy girl.

Currently Watching: The Joy of Painting with Bob Ross. I can’t really draw (much less paint) for shit, so this is as close as I am ever going to get to being artistic.

Everything I need to know about life, I learned from Dr. Seuss.

An Attempt on Actual Blogging: Case 1

A visit to the American Memorial finally happened yesterday. 

This was built on land donated by the Philippine government to the United States. I learned that America actually has a commission that is in charge of building monuments around the world for their fallen soldiers. This the second largest one, next to Normandy. 

On the walls they have etched the names of all of the fallen soldiers during both world wars. There is a special marker next to the names of soldiers whose bodies have been found. An overwhelming majority of them are still missing in action. 

There is something eerily beautiful about this place, but I feel like a cloud of sadness still hovers over the entire monument. 

Still, I wouldn’t mind being laid to rest in a place like this.
