This last summer is definitely one of the best summers I've had. I've been to a lot of places with different sets of people: friends, family, orgmates, blockmates. (and yes, nakakapagod siya. haha. dora mode kung dora). With people and places, there's also food! that i am having extra problems burning those excess calories :p And aside from the many places and the yummy food which gave me more reasons to love our beautiful country, all the experiences definitely made me learn a lot of things as well. :)
I've postponed writing about this super summer, because it would mean that the fun and the sun would really really be over, but if I really want this to be a summer that I won't forget then writing about it before the first OS exam this Friday must be done. :p
April 1, 2012 - Andie's 3rd Birthday! Bulacan
Even before the compre is through, I attended my inaanak's 3rd birthday swimming pool party at Bulacan. The first of the many swimming that I had this summer! My inaanak is such a big girl now. time flies s fast :)
April 9, 2012 - Tagaytay with Family.
After the swim in the water, it's time to enjoy the cool breeze of Tagaytay. A spontaneous road trip with the family with food and bonding! yay!
and then it was the holy week, a sacred time to reflect and repent and go back to the province :)
April 11, 2012 - SuJu goes to Anvaya!
Thank you Pat de Leon for this awesome block treat :D SuJu or Super Juon is our block name at school. Because despite the many ju-ons that our group may be facing, we remain to be super! :)
Anvaya Cove in Subic is a great private place. We tried the banana boat and the zip line, but what I enjoyed most is the bonding over the sumptuous lunch and dinner and the very calming afternoon swim :p
April 12-13, 2012 - RSO Semester Planning and Team Building, Laguna
Sinong dora? ako! haha. After the very tiring and long trip from Subic, I need to wake up early the next day to go to Laguna, at the Maspeth Resort for the organization's sem planning and team building :) Being the org's vice chair for internals, I was tasked to head the team building activity. It was a fun 2 day planning with the people I share the same values and vision to where we want to see our beloved organization :)
April 14, 2012 - Outbreak Manila, Nuvali Sta. Rosa
Running away from zombies was definitely hard. Nakakamatay. haha. Sakit sa puso. Walang sinabi ang 10k marathon. Kahit na 5k lang to, ibang level. haha. under the heat of the sun, the dry earth and with zombies looming around you, I vowed not to run anymore after surviving that first outbreak. but but but, there's another run, and it's much much nearer. and it's a night run! BGC run for your life. and now i'm... confused. haha.
April 16 to 21 - RSO Org Immersion, Quezon, Quezon
A 5 day immersion with my org-mates. learning about the realities of the health system and the many many duties and responsibilities of a municipal health officer. one of the best immersions so far! really learned a lot and bonded with members of the organization. :) this definitely made my summer one of a kind. :)
April 23 - Lolo's 80th birthday celebration! Roxas, Oriental Mindoro
People are lucky that they still have their grandparents, I was once spoiled grandchild by lolos and lolas from both sides. Now my cousins and I are lucky to have one strong lolo left that we will do anything for him, even impromptu karaoke singing in front of all the guests. :p karaoke! sayang lang, sana we're more complete next time :)
April 26-28 - Dad's birthday and mini summer immersion with 2015 RS-Su, Roxas Oriental Mindoro
Beach, Tuli Mission, Buntis Congress and Run for Wellness. What better way to celebrate dad's birthday :) Thank you to org-mates and block mates who went and celebrated with us. It was again another learning experience and an excellent venue for bonding. yay! also, Happy Birthday Papa!
April 30-May 1 - Boracay with family!
mom's birthday celebration. Honestly, boracay is already a normal beach destination during summer especially with the roro nearby our town. but the beauty of the place still never fail to mesmerize me :) Masarap pa rin magswimming sa boracay :D Happy birthday mama! I love you :)
May 3-11 - Immersion at Roxas, Oriental Mindoro
A school requirement, but something I am most grateful for. This definitely made my summers since last year very worthwhile. This year, i decided to do what we did in Quezon Quezon. Staying and observing in the RHU and tagging with midwives and BHWs in their community work. Never this excited for immersions :)
May 18 - 23 - Zamboanga with friends!
Ending my summer with a blast! going to a place i've never been to, not with family but friends (Hazel and Cza from tuguegarao and the Zamboanga hosts, Ash, Nas, Daniel and Zaid)!:) and the main reason why come june, i am/we are so dark. haha. three beaches, 2 cities and a lot of towns in between. malapit ko na mabuo ang Pilipinas <3
definitely a summer to remember and a summer that will be very hard to beat, don't you think? :p
need to start planning and saving money for next summer, with the electives and clerkship coming. ahhh summer, i'll see you again :D
*and then I start reading transes*
