Roxas/ Boracay Trip

It all started last October 12 when I heard my cousins talking about going to Roxas City in Capiz. Hinayaan ko lang sila kasi kakagaling ko lang doon nung September 14-16. Sabi ko bahala na lang sila dun. Trabaho na lang ang aatupagin ko.


Anyway, flash forward, my cousin Mikki texted me the following week asking if I were coming. I said "nope. not me." She then proceeded to tell me that they would also go to Bora on the 2nd to the 3rd. It turned out that Mikki, Cacai, Kiyo, Ish, and Omar were going too so I had a change of heart and told her that I was coming too.


Monday, October 22 I bought my ticket to Roxas (PR 189 on November 1 and PR 190 on November 6). All of them except for me and my sister took the Cebu Pacific flight.


Finally, Thursday, November 1 came and off we went to Roxas. Our flight left at exactly 5.20AM. To my surprise, I knew one of the flight attendants on board. She's Rapunzel Hernandez, Rhap or Raph for short. She was one of the talents when we shot the independent film "Ang Anak Ni Brocka". It has been a little over two years since I last saw her. It was really funny when someone you know keeps calling you sir in a flight. Well at least everytime she talks to me she smiles. haha.


Unfortunately, the weather in Roxas was not cooperative. We aborted landing about twice and they decided to divert the plane to Iloilo. When we landed, we were kept posted by the crew. We were told that the plane would make another attempt to land in Roxas, weather permitting. If not, the plane would fly back to Manila. I decided to not to gamble so my sis and I, along with the throng of passengers, disembarked there and just took a bus. It was good that our seatmate was kind enough to offer assistance so the three of us took a bus. We arrived in our destination only an hour ahead of the others.


Pagdating dun, kain tulog lang. Nagising lang nung dumating sila tapos tulog uli. Umalis kami before sunset punta sa beach pero biglang umulan so punta na lang kami sa Gaisano then uwi na. Punta din kami sementeryo to eat, then back home to eat again.


Prepare lang kami ng gamit then konting kwentuhan then tulog na.


November 2 buti na lang nakasabay namin yung pinsan ni Omar so libre sakay. I fell asleep and when I woke up may lock jaw na ko. til this time meron pa rin so ang hirap kumain. We ate lunch in Kalibo. Masarap pa rin.


next time na part 2. pagod na ko.
