I went to Enchanted Kingdom with some of my friends. Damn! The place was packed! I think we spent more time in queue than on the rides. Still, it was a nice visit. We all had a great time... I think. lol!

My family and I went to corregidor. It was a very enjoyable history lesson. If I had my way, I'd go in the ruins, explore, and try to imagine what it was like during WW2. But alas! I could only take pictures.

The World of Tomorrow

I've been busy lately. I am working on a few enhancements for an application that our team is supporting. It's okay. It beats doing nothing at all. Although it does have some paperwork work involved, it's still better that pure documentation.

Last night, F and I saw Sky Captain and The World of Tomorrow. I didn't like it. In a scale of 1 to 10, I'd give it a 3. I give it a three because I like Jude Law, Gwyneth Paltrow, Angelina Jolie, and Giovanni Ribisi (from Lost in Translation. I had the feeling I saw him before.)

Oh, there was an earthquake last Friday. It was the second earthquake in one month and it was bigger than the previous. It was scary. I immediately went down the stairs to evacuate the building. 24 floors down the stairs! What a rush! But I realized that it was wrong to try to evacuate during an earthquake. Now I'm thinking, should I run up the top floor or should I "Duck, Cover and Hold?"

tiger, jopay, and sky captain

I don't feel like blogging right now but it's been a while since I've posted here. I feel obliged.

Let me just post some of my favorite quotes.

"Life is a tragedy for those who feel and a comedy for those who think."
"The best way to forget a woman is to get another."
"When you fall in love, it is a temporary madness. It erupts like an earthquake, and then it subsides. And when it subsides, you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have become so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness; it is not excitement, it's not the desire to mate every second of the day, not lying awake at night imagining him kissing every part of your body. No.. don't blush. I'm telling you some truths. That is just being in love, which any of us can convince ourselves we are. Love, itself, is what is left over, when being in love has burned away. Doesn't sound very exciting does it? ...but it is."

let's go to the beach

It's 8 o'clock and I'm still in the office. No, I'm not working. I'm just surfing the net. I love the internet! Anyway, I have just visited a travel forum and I've been reading the posts there. There are so many good places to go to. I like to travel. I like to explore nature and experience everuthing that this world has to offer. Right now, I'm thinking of going to Panglao, Bohol. Hmmm... When? That's one big question to answer.

I remember F telling me that she wants to go to Cebu this summer. I wonder if we will. I sure hope so.

I used to dislike going to beaches. Probably because I didn't have fun going there when I was a kid. But when I went to Boracay, damn! It's such a nice place. A little expensive though. Then there is Puerto Galera. This place made me love the beach. Of all the beaches in PG, I liked Lalaguna the most. I could still remember swimming in that beach. Floating around. Sonrkling. NIce! Now I read from the forum that Panglao's sand is finer than Puerto Galera's. This I got to see. I also read that the place is not crowded. That would be great! Peace and quiet. Then, there is also a P1,500 tour package around Bohol. They say it's worth it. I'm definitely going to Panglao.

All this dreaming is making me hungry.
