nothing matters

i love to write short stories and novels.. its the only thing that make me escape from my reality. Sometimes i cant help myself not to wish that my stories are me. that i was there.. that i was the one receiving these happy endings. i know i always telling myself that someday i'll have my own happy ending. Its just tiring that i was waiting for it. tiring of thinking about it and that's the most tiring to do, to wait for it. maybe that was the reason of all my frustrations and depressions.. That was the result of my imaginations of wants and needs and dreams.

end of my speech... end of my words...

nothing to say but

nothing matters to me

not true...

i dont know...

Unexpected Trip

I was scheduled to go to manila to get my Requested TOR from my Former University. I was planning just to go by myself since i thought of to go straight ahead to my current University to fix my subjects to be credited and etcetera. Few days before that i thought of i wanted to have a company so i asked my friend, Josie to go with me and she agreed on it. :)

We leave around 8 in the morning i think haha and got there by 9:30 because it is so traffic in Cavite! urrrgghh! What do i expect? haha. Its really just very few minutes to get my TOR and there's still no classes so ive decided to toured her around. Well im still very proud of my former university. i had great times there and actually missed it. i toured her in the whole campus and we take pictures and all haha. We go from the canteen, student's veranda, library, the theater room etcetera and all plus I told her my good memories there and I feel like im a tour guide haha.

The clock of the city hall van be seen at my former University :)

it also serves as our bell too

A fierce cat on our way to 2nd floor. he's cute haha

After that I was actually thinking we go straight to SM Southmall but she asked me if we can go to Rizal Park so I said its okay with me and since it’s quite still hot(the weather) we ended up first at SM Manila to freshen up and eat lunch. We settled up at McDonalds, I don’t want to think more where we should eat and it was the first fast food we saw already. J We stayed there for an hour we chatted with few brown outs occurred and thinking where other places to go. Then I suggested we can go to Intramuros wall it’s been 2-3 years the last time I walk there for nothing purposes but to get tired haha. Then the journey begins…

I was thinking to buy an umbrella since its 12 noon exactly and I thought walking at “walls” would be a tanning timeJ. But we saw that it’s cloudy and it’s like going to rain so I decided not. We also thought its going to rain but NO! It started to clear up and became sunny. We got on the other side and started walking and Josie was so amazed and had so much fun seeing the old structures and for me it’s already natural (I’ve already seen it many times) but I find it nice to see one enjoying the views and all.

At the Wall

We follow the trail and got almost near the Manila Bulletin Office and I was telling her that I want her to see the taping location (some) of the TV series “Encantadia” before but the way there is already closed! Awwww..sayang.. I don’t know why it’s closed. Then I told her that we can go now to Luneta but she asked me where the Fort Santiago is and I really don’t know haha then I thought the Cathedral with tombs inside (San Agustin Church) and she was also wanted to see it too so we decided to find it. Honestly we can’t remember the name of that cathedral so we just asked what cathedral is near where we are and remembered the Manila Cathedral. So we really walk from “Wall” to nowhere. But found first the nice painted Church it was the San Agustin Church but it was closed but the museum is opened. But we don’t have enough budget at that time so we never seen the whole church insideL. And it’s the Cathedral we wanted to see the crypts inside..The tombstone from the Spanish Era! Awwww… The church is open publicly early morning and in the afternoon where a mass is held on weekday’s maybe… We just captured the front of it….

San Agustin Church

The shops and restaurants in old fashioned was around :)

Not far from there we saw the tower of a cathedral again and we knew it’s the Manila cathedral. We go there and seen few museums around and cute old fashioned coffee shops and restaurants. Im looking forward to eat one on there. J before we almost get there we passed by a statue or something and a katipunero man was there and Josie asked for a picture with him and he was okay with it haha..

Josie with a katipunero :)

And finally we are here at The Manila Cathedral! Yeeehaaa! We Go inside immediately see some of the small galleries there, take some pictures and stay for a while to say a little prayer. I forgot to have a candle lighted there or I just never see the candle stand there. I also remembered few stories about your first time in a church. You can whisper your wish there but of course I forgot it too. Tssss… we stay for a while then and go.

After that Josie remembered the Fort Santiago and still wanted to go there. we looked around and found it in front of us. We saw the signage going to Fort Santiago and found the kalesa’s and again we didn’t enter the Fort Santiago because again we don’t have enough budget for it. We just took a picture of the place. After,we go straight ahead to Luneta Park which is far. Really!! I thought our walk will never end and take note we don’t have umbrellas! I think we were near the Pier place and we walk all through out Quirino Grand Stand! Whew! Long walk….Long walk as in Long walk! Finally were there!! Were at Luneta Park now. Gosh so tired from walking. I feel like im perspiring so much and I feel like I got so tanned haha. I was joking Josie that ive already had my sunburns from my previous Family swimming and I have another just right now and she was just laughing at me that I was exaggerating and it was okay which is true. J (Don't have any picture but Josie has)

Rizal Park - lots of Doves there :)

" hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil"

After the long walk, taking pictures of everything and the sunny day we ended the trail and we are already at Taft and get ready to ride back home…Oopps…uh ah…were not done yet.. J. We rode the bus going to SM Southmall Las Pinas because I don’t know why. I just wanted to and atleast from the way there we had time to compose ourselves, relax and enjoy the air conditioning of the bus and read the comedic and joke horoscope at the TV and watch Korean music videos which the sounds is so low as in you can never hear it and when its almost near southmall the sounds became louder. Such a joke really! Plus passed by at the Taft the Bus Station going to Lucenea City and seen that their busses has free wifi! I already thought going to Lucena City just to experience the Wifi of them haha not a bad idea though. You are surfing the net plus a good long trip you can gain plus the views outside or passing by. Hmmmm..thinking about it..how musch would be the fare kaya? Haha

At Southmall ive decided we should just eat and go home because tiredness is already slipping in But to our surprise we accidentally saw our two good close friends, the couple, Allan and Ice. We chatted around and they told us they had come from manila too. We take pictures there with Ice’s DSLR and few chats before they bid us goodbye. We just ate after and decided to go home.

Long Day…Long trip…Long walk…Long bonding time…Long fun…Long Sunny time. J

But in short I had the greatest day and greatest trip ever! Even if it’s not the best places to go and its not really far I think the adventure of looking around and the funny times and chatting around with your friend or friends was the greatest fun. I got tired…yes…but all worth it.. Its unexpected trip but that makes the trip memorable one.
