Day 256 - Happy Birthday!

Cake! It was really nice of the resort to give my mom a cake for free because it's her birthday today. I mean, yeah they have their own bakery and they're probably bored with baking the same bread everyday, but still.

And it was delicious, too. You can go wrong with spelling my mom's name, but you can never go wrong with chocolate! Hehe! :D

Day 255 - Only One of the Destinations

Today our entire family rode an airplane. But here's the kicker: Not together, and not to the same destinations, i.e. my sister and E went to Hong Kong, my brother and M went to Boracay, and my mom, dad and I went to El Rio Y Mar Resort in Coron, Palawan. The photo is of the entrance of the resort. Pretty amazing. I mean, not just the resort, but the fact that semi-coincidentally, we all had a trip on the same day. :)

Day 204 - My Parents Are Weird 2

The second entry of the My Parents Are Weird Series! The first one is here.

I didn't mean for this to become a series, but they're just really funny sometimes. My mom's lying on the grass and to take a picture of her, my dad had to sit on the grass as well. Don't they look funny?

You can see the rest of the pictures from our Virac trip in my Multiply.

Day 202 - Storm Central Outlet

Today I went to Virac, Catanduanes with my parents. Upon arriving at Twin Rock Beach Resort and settling in our room, I found out that the electrical outlets are on the ceiling. We asked the reason to the people who worked there but they didn't know either so I can only assume that it's because Virac is usually affected by typhoons and that it's better to have electrical outlets in high places.

BTW, just to plug in my ipod speakers, I had to tiptoe on a coffee table, which was scary. We later on decided to borrow an extension cord from the front office.

Day 186 - Requisite Jump Shot

I'm not the best photographer/camwhorer/jumper in the world so I really don't know what possessed me to take such a photo. I think, it was mostly to see if I could take a jump shot using my camera's timer while it was sitting on one of the beach chairs. I think I got the timing and framing right. Now I just have to work on looking better while jumping. That pose is totally ridiculous.

P.S. Somewhat iconic Pearl Farm Beach Resort Parola in the background. With a star on top! :D
