Day 203 - Clouds on the Mountain

Rain has always given me mixed emotions. On the one hand, it ruins your time at the beach, but on the other, it gives you scenery like this. So I can't say that our second day in Virac was totally ruined, even though we didn't get to swim in the beach and got scared about landslides while we were driving on the side of a mountain because, look! Isn't it so pretty?

Day 178 - My Parents Are Weird

For the last 2 days of 2010, my family went for an overnight trip to Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar, a resort in Bataan, which features old style Filipino houses. I suppose I could've picked one of the many pictures of said old houses, but this was just too funny (for me anyway) not to post.

During dinner time, we watched the cultural presentation of the resort staff at the "plaza", which was outdoors. When it started to rain, my parents used the cloth napkins from the dining tables to cover their heads. We all eventually moved back into the restaurant, but not before I got this shot.

For more pictures of the place, see my dad's multiply post.

P.S. My brother is weird, too.

Day 123 - Rainy View

INTERSECTION - between SM Makati and Glorietta, Intercontinental Hotel at the background

I went to my former office to tie some loose ends today *wink* and went to Glorietta afterwards to pass the time before going to dinner with my friends. Since it was the middle of the work day that I was there (around 3PM), I was able to get a seat by the window at the mall's food court. This was my view.

It was raining at the time and I actually fell asleep for a couple of minutes. You know what they say about how rain makes you want to sleep. :P Luckily, I didn't sleep that long, or I might've lost my phone or worse. Who accidentally sleeps at a public place, really!? And I was alone, too. So, nobody was there to wake me up or anything.

Day 73 - Rainy Garden

I've been indoors for the past few days not just because I don't have work anymore* but because it's been raining everyday. This is our "garden" at home. As you can see, the floor is wet.

*I really should stop talking about my unemployment. It's not something I should be proud of.

Day 47 - Lit by Lightning

Today, I got to catch up with my sleep so I woke up at 6PM. Seriously. Anyway, when I woke up, it was raining pretty hard and I got to take a shower in the rain. :)

Because my camera is waterproof and awesome, I was able to take this picture of the park near our house just as lightning lit up the sky. This was taken around 7:30PM, way after the sun has set, and I did no editing to it. This really is how it looked like because of the lightning. Quite beautiful really, except that lightning is dangerous. :(
