Balay Indang II: The Ortigas Edition

When I was going through these photos over the weekend, I just realized that these are the same group of people who were with me during our Balay Indang adventure last year -

minus Mommy Gutz who was unable to go of course because of baby Kianne

This was supposed to be Val's despedida - but apparently these guys

want to have another get together in the same area mind you!

GAH! Good luck to us south peeps like me and misty

What I doubly enjoyed that night was discovering new food to munch on!

Mexican food - fajitas and nachos and margaritas galore!

TJ's Tijuana Mexican Grill

and for our midnight snack

we tried the ANGUS! burger & fries and chili & cheese

Charlie's Burger beside this carwash in Shaw Blvd

things i learned during my Balay Indang Weekend

I always knew that you can learn new things everyday...my friends and I may not be experts but hey you can expect them to spout words of wisdom or surprise you with their quotable quotes and hilarious antics...

Here are just a few of the things I learned during my Balay Indang Weekend with my college barkada...


Chi Energy

On our way back, I asked Chi to formally name this malady or sickness or contagious virus hopping amongst us during our stay...Be careful about this energy coz it causes one to be super hyper that they spontaneously blurt out words making the people around him/her laugh out loud over his/her joke...unfortunately he/she wasn't kidding in the first place

Ex. Hogswert? Botterbeer? Uy! Barefoot path pwede mag tsinelas diyan!

Another thing I learned but I knew a long time ago, is that we can never do a serious portrait...as evidenced by the photos below...you can never catch all of us making serious poses...there is always one person smiling or showing teeth...come on now! how can we star in our own telenovela for crying out loud!?

If I have been complaining about my added weight... I believe I'd have to shut up now and just sing along...."magLesofat"!

I learned a new conkoktion! (and yes I intentionally misspelled that!) and I soooo missed drinking with my Psychos buddies...but let's go back to the latest conkoktion - CO-MI-DY which stands for... coffee, milk and brandy (emperador to be more exact)...
Huwow! It was ok...I never did really liked rhum or brandy or whatever..but hey...I'd take coffee in any way haha

Another conkoktion i loved that night was....my Sprite spiked with The Bar (mga hindot! haha) and The Bar mixed with Dalandan soda and Extra Joss...huwow!
and I wasn't drunk that night mind you! just tipsy haha



We are all fans of Fashionable Shobe

Who is this you might ask...let me introduce you to Mommy Za's 3-year old Zyanne...

She came all dressed in this cute pink dress and all us girls - I think even Aids haha - were admiring her outfit...make that coveting her outfit! haha...

and her fashion show did not end there...
she came for dinner in a yellow dress and matching yellow hat...
the next day she was dressed up as a train driver - which she gamely told me she was wearing - and to cap it all off...she went home in a checkered blue dress with purple shoes and purple flower in her hair

Goodness! I hope I'd get to see our little fashionable shobe soon!

I never knew that I can unleash addicts with the help of my game Mystery Case Files

Goodness! It isn't my fault these two had to finish all levels of the game and stay up late/early morning even after we had our drinking sessions...they really stayed up to finish the game...

Now this deserves an enthusiastic "Good Job!"



How do you shut up someone? Keep them preoccupied and give him/her a camera to play around with

Aside from Aids and me taking pictures of everyone...
Chi thought of using Aids' cam that first night and whoa! the sound of silence! haha...
she was too preoccupied taking pictures left and right and asking us to pose this way and that haha...She took pictures of the tripod, the stairs, the room slippers, even the hand doorknob...
Man! was she having fun! and I haven't even uploaded the last day photos she made...hahaha so expect more from this trigger happy Chi

And one last thing that I know...
is that one should really take some time off
to relax and enjoy life...

either alone

or in the company of friends

now I really know how to make gif images

Enjoyed myself immensely last weekend!
Spent some "relaxing albeit noisy" quality time with my college barkada...
roll call: Misty, Val, Gutz, Chi, Za and her daughter Zyanne (whom we fondly call Shobe)
and Aids (the lone rose among the thorns haha)

And with lotsa pictures taken during that weekend...
we had fun posing for the 5shots 10shots
setting of Joyce and Aids' cameras...

and of course what else did I do with these photos? I made gif images! And may I just say... I AM TOTALLY GETTING THE HANG OF IT! WOHOO!

Aids had to count for his shots

We had to run around just to change poses

Chi? Buddha bless you?!

Gutz and her cute poses

See who changed poses the least in this one
