T-REX TEAM BUILDING @ LEMERY, BATANGAS





yeah this is it! after i spent my birthday with my siblings... here i am celebrating my birthday with my former team(this team is really close to my heart aside from the team where am at right now!)...

who else,TEAM REX!

i woke up around 4:45 am to prepare my things when i received a txzt msg from gelai stating that there is an icky who wants to join.. at first i want to back out since i know that it will ruin everything as in EVERYTHING!!!

but still, since that they are the reason why i take a VL from work i said i'll still go..(bahala na!)
so i went to the office to finish my phonetym (since wala pa talaga akong fonetym for the week!).. when i went there everyone is not in the mood so i was very worried thinking that the Team Building will become unsuccessful...

gelai and i talked about the icky thingy, then decide not to join if the icky will join. then during my fontym i notice that coachie is very mad and i heard that he will not join anymore! i was soooo bothered thinking what's the problem(though i already had a hint what is the main reason)... so i talked to coachie and asked what's the prob, he told me nothing to worry.. so i continue my fontym... afterwards around 11am we packed our things para sa pagpunta sa batangas (the team building held in LEONOR Beach Resort in Lemery, Batangas)...

while we are on the road i'm thinking of talking to coach(because froi told me that the reason why he don't want to join is because of me!) my God sobrang bigat talaga ng feeling ko nung nsa byahe kami, good tthing nyanin, gelai, yen, jamill, and berna are there to cheer me up(since na kami yung magkakasama sa sasakyan)...

ang saya nga kasi c berna gusto makita yung bulkang taal so we had a stop over pa sa tagaytay para magpapicture.. ahehehe



around 4:00pm we arrive in Leonor Beach, pagdating namin inayos na namin ung gamit namin then we check the place...




afterwards, joel make yaya to play volleyball since that its been 6 years since the last time that i play volleyball, i'm so excite to join!(badtrip nga lang ksi puro ako sablay! ahehehe... nakakahiya tuloy)

i saw dennis g. played volleyball and he's so good! as in napa wow ako.. (ang galing nya mag-block ng ball!)
well, c aepol ang lakas mang-asar! actually aepol make a scene wherein he rolled on the sand... (ang sakit ng tyan ko kakatawa kasi he's waiting for someone fall on the sand! yun pala xa pala gagawa nun! ahehehe)

well, playing volleyball is such a great time, then coachie together with team Ron arrive around 6pm...

I gathered too much guts to talk to coach to clarify everything, i explain my side and he also explain his side then he talked to gelai and yen...Good thing everything went well... whew!
after the heart to heart, everyone are happy!(GOOD THING!)


after dinner coach asked for a program, so mami gelai starts the program, we are so excited since coach rex don't have any idea that we have something for him... before we gave our present we gave coach a small message(since this is the last team building with him... sadness)kuya froi started then followed by the others, coach rex became so emotional to the point the he cried!(i actually he cried on the entire time that we're giving him message... ahehehe) then its my time to give the message, actually i dunno what i'm going to say since it was an impromptu... i just find myself crying while hugging coachie, because i can't hide my sadness, because coach rex is my friend, my mentor and my adviser while i'm still an agent... we already have our ups and downs but still we remain as friends.. that's why coach rex is really close here sa heart ko...(love you coachie!)

then after the presentation with coach, i was so surprised because they shout "OY! C ANGELA NAMAN!!!" then yen blinfolded me... i have mixed emotions, i dunno and i can't explain what i'm feeling at that very moment (i'm tense, excited, so happy, basta!) then when they removed it i was so shocked because all of them holding flowers... coachie gave me the first one then asking for a dance (hahaha i just blurted "F&^% ano 'to cotillon? ang baduy!" then i'm laughing out loud!) actually.


i really don't know what will i say i'm so overwhelmed and running out of words to say.. then followed by the others(i'm also surprised because coach ron and kuya mac is also included!)then afterwards coach hand me another rose and ask that if i will not dance then dapat sasayaw ako sa last... its just so happen that its aepol! i'm so nahihiya for myself coz i really don't know how to dance! then aepol just make a small dance step then hand me the last flower! after that they gave a cake (its a black forest from Bread talk)... the cake is sooo sarap (YUM!) since the chocolate that they use is dark chocolate (my favorite!)...

i'm so happy! believe me i'm so happy the entire night..i dunno how will i thank T-REX for the surprise that they gave to me! i was so surprised!

after that, the drinking session started.. i only took one shot of FUNDADOR then after that i stopped (since i'm not in the mood to drink!)... so what i did is to make chika with the group!(hehehe) the next day, we decide to go to beach with gelai, yen, papi, nerio, nyanin and berna... the beach is shallow since its morning but the waves are big so what we did is we wait for big waves then nagpapatangay kami sa alon... we have so much fun in the beach(lalo na kapag naalala ko yung expression ni ninya! ahehehehe)then afterwards, nagbabad nman kami sa pool!(nakaktuwa c berna kasi first time nya na makagitna sa pool.. ahehehe)

grabe! we spent so much fun in batangas! then around 2:30pm our service came and its time to say goodbye to the place...

all i can say that its the best team building that we had! i just hope that this one will happen again... this team building with coach rex...
hayyy!! coachie, i will miss you promise... but i know you'll be back! and by that time i hope we will still have this great time together with the team!VON VOYAGE COACHIE!!! mwahhh!

well, to make the story short we ate at Aristocrat in THE BLOCK! woW! the food are so masarap! we ordered pancit canton pa nga but unfortunately we didn't even touch it because of our kabusugan! hahaha...

after a short stroll, we ate in iceberg, we ordered Banana Split Oreo! this is the first time i taste their banana split since i usually ordered halo-halo from them.. the price of the split is so sulit and the servings are good for two! and it taste so good!

after that, we went home feeling bloated... sarap!it was a great day!

Goodbye Jhing....



A good friend, an A-1 student, a good daughter, a sister....

that is jee ann... i met her way back in college from small talk we build friendship. We apply together as a student assistant in our school... from there, our bond become stronger...

we've been together for more than 4 years, we build dreams together...

when we finished college, we part ways, never heard from her for a long time...

last time we talked is last Oct 15 2007, the regular kamustahan and all... after that I never heard anything from her, till the news break it...

jhing was gone, she is one of the victims of the Glorietta Bombing happened last Oct. 19 2007...

at first i never believe that its true, i thought it was just a bluff...

i thought they just have the same name as hers....

then i start receiving txt msgs askin' if the news is true, actually i can't answer them, because i don't know the real deal...

so i called one of our friend. from him, i confirmed it... its true, she is gone...

i was shocked, i don't know what will i react, its so sudden... out of many people why she?!

i dunno what will i say about what happen. i'm so sad but we need to face the fact that she is gone...

... she is in a better place, where there is no hurt, no sadness... where she can find eternal peace...


JHING, wherever you are... i want you to know that we will miss u... very much!


till we see each other again...






Baguio Trip (Excited ka na ba?!)




Wow! at last i already created a blog re: this trip... (ang tagal ko na ring balak i-post 'to kaya lang ang daming nangyari...)

Well, going back. Thinking of what happen on this barkada trip, one thing to describe it: SUPERB!


We go to Baguio last Oct. 5 2007, we leave manila very excited at exactly 2:00pm with Joel, Yen, Gelai, Lloyd (Gelai's bf and my good friend), and kikay (don't ask who is kikay, ok?!)... It's a very long journey because we arrive at Baguio at around 8:30pm...


It was so cold and we are all excited. The excitement arises when we found out that there is a smoke came out in our mouths everytime we speak (oh diba?! akala ko sa states ko lang mae-experience un! hehehe)...

First thing we do is to look for a place to stay. We found A.J Penthouse (it's along Leonardwood St), the place is nice (the room can accommodate 6-8 person...) and the restroom is so clean (good thing)... I never expect that the place is so nice and relaxing because before, mami gel and I thinking of some creepy apmt in baguio... (good thing wala naman nakakatakot ksi mamatay ako! nyay!)...

So after we check-in, we just leave our things there then we head off to the "plaza" to look for a place to eat... while we are looking for a resto, we saw the SITEL's office, we are planning to take a picture of it but ended up not to do so because we are so hungry na... we end up spending our dinner at Sizzling Plate Baguio...

WOW! the foods are so masarap and the servings are good for 2 people... I ordered Liempo and believe me, hindi ko xa naubos as in sobrang laki ng serving...

then the others ordered roasted chicken, pork barbeque, and sisig (and yes! before i forgot their soup is soooo masarap! mmmm)... we are all feel bloated afterwards.... (Burp!) then we head back to the penthouse to rest for the next day agenda...


Oct. 6 2007

I woke up around 8am(sarap matulog.. lamig!), its rainy morning, so we just let the rain pass then we head to plaza again for our breakfast, so we went to MAMI's... its just like a carinderia but the food is great i ordered tapsilog and goto (oh db heavy breakfast?!) then after that we went to Our Lourdes Grotto...



... and i'm telling you, i hate stairs i really do! that's why joel, yen, and mami gel are laughing at me because we need to climb the stairs to reach the grotto...

so i have no choice but to follow.. I want to laugh of myself because i'm so napapagod na but i still want to climb (actually i can't move my legs na beause of pagod)... so i try to pass by on the kiosks near the grotto i look for some silvers and their goodies... i even call lloyd to accompany me on checking silver accessories... then we head back to follow the others. (good thing i found a shortcut so we don't need to use the stairs! brilliant!hehehe) I uttered a short prayer...


then took some pictures (thanks to the camera phones, we are able to take pics since that we do not have a digicam)...

Next stop, IBAY's.

Saya! because they have 50% off on their accessories, i bought 2 rings and a pair of earrings for my sister, yen bought necklace with a letter "Y" pendant... saya talaga! then we go to palengke to buy umbrella since its raining.. then we head to the strawberry farm that is located to La Trinidad

... unfortunately because of the storm the strawberry field doesn't look good.. so pinagtyagaan na lng namin yung isang bunga ng strawberry at least remembrance na nagpunta kami...ahehe


then Bells Church...



I found out that during Chinese New Year the Bell Church is at its busiest when many local and foreign Chinese tourists come to Bell Church to pray. From afar, you already know that it is a place for Chinese meditation. Although we are not a Taoist or Buddhist, we come to visit the Bell Church whenever I go to Baguio for some quiet meditation. The whole place is very quiet, and you won’t hear anyone uttering a single word. Those who wish to say something speak in a hushed tone so as not to interrupt the people praying. There are two dragons atop the entrance, and between them is a bell. The grounds are intricately landscaped, full of lush gardens and colorful flowers. There is a huge temple in the middle of the garden, and smaller pagodas scattered across the grounds. There is a lotus and fish pond, where you can drop a coin and make a wish. The dominant colors here are green (because of the plants) and red (because of the buildings and arches). A local said that there’s fortune teller in one of the Pagodas, but we have never seen him. The fortune teller is a priest of the temple, and for a fee he will tell you about your future. Taking pictures in the grounds is fine, but once you go inside the main temple you have to turn off your cell phone and you can’t take photos of the altar. A festival that I have never had the chance to see is the Lantern Festival. The local said that lanterns are lit and carried by children in a parade. The Lantern Festival is celebrated during Chinese New Year.

Syempre after we visit the church, picture picture na.. hehehe.

Then, we went to Burnham Park to look for a place to eat.. i dunno what's the name of the food stall but their bulalo taste good (obviously, i ordered bulalo for lunch.) We ordered it and share it with joel, then mami gelai share her food with Lloyd then yen ordered something that looks like sisig and share it with us..hehehe then after we ate our lunch punta naman kami ng Burnham Park para mamasyal...

and i'm tellin you its soooo cold! we are planning to ride a boat but decided not to because of the wind...(duwag kami weh!)


we also visit the sikat na sikat the Ukay-Ukay there, (i bought a bag and a jacket for me and my sis!).... since that the day is still young, we decide to visit "The Mansion",



unfortunately, our tour guide, Joel forgot the place so medyo nalagpas kmi.. ahehe... good thing the gate is open so we got an opportunity to enter and took a picture with the mansion on the background, we even ask the guard to take a picture so that all of us will have a souvenir...

then we went to SM Baguio, I found out that the mall do not have an air con since its open air (cool!), since its our last destination for the day and we are all tired, we decide to buy pizza (from Pizza Hut) for dinner. Then Joel treat us a botlle of tequila then we head off back to the penthouse to take some rest... after we ate our dinner, we start our drinking session...

they use salt and calamansi(opt for lemons)... unfortunately i don't like the taste, and because i'm so tired after 3 shots i gave up... They are calling me KJ pa nga because i'm the only one who did not join the session,... and yeah! i sleep early.. hehehe


Oct. 7, 2007 we are still in Baguio! sunny morning! WOW! we are so excited because the weather is sooo fine! so we make ourselves ready to attend sunday mass at Baguio Cathedral...



First time i visit the church so i make a wish(i dunno, but i usually make a wish when i visit a church for the first time because they say that ur wish will come true if you do it...) after the mass, picture picture xempre then i bought a rosary for myself..

afterwards we ate somewhere near the Plaza (i forgot the name of the place...)for our breakfast. We even ate ice cream afterwards (di ba astig?! baguio tapos ice cream...)


then we went to Mine's View Park...

there we see lots of goodies best for pasalubongs... i even txted kris because he is asking me for a headband (miss u 'tol!), unfortunately no color of his choice is available.






so i just bought peanut brittle, choco flakes, and lengua for pasalubongs. then i also bought keychains as my pasalubong for my team...

then we go to Good Shepherd Convent...


...while we are walking going to the place (since its located near mine's view ) we saw a pretty vintage car! (i can't help myself, so a took a pic of it)

I thought before that Good Sheperd is just a kiosk that sells goodies that was made by the nuns, its only there i found out that the store is inside the convent compound... (i bought their famous Ube Jam and it sooo masarap talaga!) the view on the compound is amazing daming puno and flowers good for picture picture! (xempre hindi ko pinalagpas nagpapicture ako! hehehe) i can say that the Romana's Peanut Brittle and the Mika'san choco flakes are the best.. sarap! we dropped by to Burnham Park again after since joel promise me that he will treat me the famous burger in baguio which i can say that its really masarap for P15 you'll have a burger with Tomato,Lettuce and i forgot the other one (san ka pa db?!)...


... and only in baguio i experience the binatog with milk and sugar! (kakaiba db?!). sobrang busog kami pagkatapos! panalo talaga fud trip namin!


then after that we went back to our place to pack our things... we check-out and leave our things to the frontliner of the penthouse... then we went to Crystal Cave.


Crystal Cave is the farthest place that we visit in baguio, at first we are wondering how to go there since that there are lots of houses build within the area, with the help of the natives we found out how to reach the cave... at first mami gel and i afraid to enter the cave since its sooo dark inside, but with the help of the tour guide we enter the cave safely... during our trip inside the cave one of the eldest tour guide discuss the unique things inside the cave (she also have a good sense of humour, and its hard for me to give a healthy laugh...)


we took a few shots inside the cave... in addition the Crystal Cave adventure is the best! its a very wonderful experience... afterwards we went to Camp John Hay.





Overall, the whole place in Camp John Hay is awesome, and the houses... WOW! they are all nice! (how i wish i owned one of those houses... *sigh*) its a long walk but the experience was great!



then we went back to the penthouse to get our things and make ourselves ready to go back in manila...

All in all, our Baguio experience was great! i will surely miss the cold air and the beautiful environment (*sigh*)... I can't wait to go back in this place!
