Bora baybeh

t
My birthday at Bora was pretty interesting. I hopped on a plane with a bunch of strangers (44 to be exact- ate's officemates), watched anime on my ipod for 30 minutes, then it was tropical haven for the next 3 days for us. We were considered VIPs pala. When one of ate's officemates accidentally left his whole family's tickets at home, tickets were printed for them and flight attendants even escorted them to the plane. It was already about to take off, when the front desk called them to "wait". Haha. Kewl.

We stayed at Las Brisas. It's in station 1 so it's way pricey. But hey! It's all free thanks to Citibank! People pay for the privacy, that's why it's pricier. It's near the end of the island kasi, and near Discovery Shores! OMG seeing it almost made me pee in my shorts. :)) It's soooo nice!

1st day: Jonah's baybeh! Love love their mango milk shake. Emphasis on the space there! B-) Being the excited kids that we really are, ate and I changed into our bathing suits and looked around. The last time I went to Bora was about 5 years ago so there was much to see (for me). But hmm...how do I say this? I kinda pictured Bora something a bit of a baby Miami and I just wasn't seeing that. It's a bit overrated if you ask me. You know, they say it's REALLY REALLY COMMERCIALIZED. But I don't think it's that commercialized. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't want Bora to turn into this baby Miami, but there's still a lot to improve in Bora.

Yet, as you look at the ocean, you can just faint. It's unbelievable how Bora's multi-shaded shores are still oh-so-clear after all these years.

We ate dinner at Aria, an Italian Resto. Grabe, pizza overload! there were like 5 pizzas, 3 pastas, 2 plates of brownies, and 3 plates of topped bread per table!

I actually felt sleepy by 9, so Wilmer's tequila rose wasn't put into good use! Haha! It's just weird when you're spending your bday with a bunch of old, workaholic acquintances - pressuring you to get drunk! Haha! Oh well, call me a party pooper, but I was really really tired by 9 pm. And I didn't even drink anything. Haha.

2nd day: My actual bday. We went around Bora again, even walked up to station 3! Pare, layo nun! I guess I got to experience a little of "everything". I got to spend it with complete strangers, on my own (I had my first long walk on the beach by myself! I was going to meet Sandra kasi. For 30 minutes, I walked along the shore! It was pretty nice actually. I got to think about some stuff.), and with a friend!

I met up with Sandra together with her fun cousins at Aria then the 2 of us went for a stroll near the shore. SHET. It's not something we pictured before. You know, late at night near the shore with the moonlight's glistening effect made it even more romantic?? Haha. The cool breeze and excellent company made it even qualify for one of those dream dates. Lying down on the sand and just watching the stars while having heart-to-heart talks makes it even more enticing. But really, we all have our own versions. :D I got to spend my bday with Sandra baybeh!

Lying on the sand while watching the sky with you was just priceless!
I love you too forever!

I know we both hate night pictures Sandra, but I can't help it! Ito lang picture natin nung bday ko. Umm you may notice the Vodka rasberry mustache. AHAHA.

My bday was rest night for them! They went all out partying for the last 2 (or 3) nights kasi. We just hung out at Hey Jude for a Volcano shot and a Tequila Sunrise .Thank you for my first ever legal drink! The bartender was even amused haha! I was seriously scared when I saw the bartender light up the shot! As in it had flames all over!





We all called it a night at around 1 am, I told you, we were all tired na from the previous nights.


Bora, I will miss you.
