A Dreamer's Summer 2014

Summer is one of the most exciting season of the year that everyone of us have been looking forward for. We tend to plan to go to places where everyone most likely to visit or re-visit. And during this time, each one of us will surely post online the best pictures & the best captions we can, even exaggerating some things. But who cares by the way? Be it in the sea, mountains, falls, springs etc. We enjoyed it and so we all have an equal right to show to the world how we spent unforgettably our hot-summer!
For me, its not really that extravagant (as always) haha! Some of which were already planned by Superfriends before summer came & some were 'by-luck visit' through work-related activities. But I am grateful enough to share to you how and what I did this summer that might interest you to pay for a visit also in the next trip you want.

1. Amara for Elementary Batch 2001 Get-Together 

Its funny yet really this one I considered as my summer-opener. Seemed so late though but definitely it was!

That feeling when you can't go for a dip because of the so-called monthly girl thing!

    04 May 2014, Sunday at Amara, Liloan was our venue for elementary reunion and of course the Superfriends' too! haha. It was my 3rd time in this beautiful - I cant afford subdivision! My God, you have to build 3-floor house if you want to live here and you can not access the amenities if no one will permit you from a residence inside. Thanks to the friends of my friends' though! But anyway, I considered this place a very special one also since my highschool memoir was so enriched with this place. (Way back 3rd year hs)

Meet my elementary batchies and teachers!
*** I only miss Bandol (I haven't seen here since she left in school)haha***

2. Superfriends' Colder-Summer in Osmeña Peak, Traverse to Alcoy Beach

Superfriends' ready to climb!
We can do it guys! Taga-bukid pud ta!

Yes! It was a planned Superfriends' getaway this summer in a colder way! On 10 - May 2014 (Sat & Sun), We did it in the Cebu-South of Mantalungon, Dalaguete - the very well-known Osmeña Peak. I was really amazed with the vegetables, trees, mountains, and all the sceneries along the way. And the more we get closer to the peak, the more that it gets colder! You shouldn't miss the fog happening anytime up in the peak too! That was absolutely amazing! A hint: It was a 3 hour trip thru a bus to Dalaguete proper (80+kms) fare of Php101. Motorcyle to Mantalungon fare Php100 and vice versa. You can hire kids as tour guide in the area. They are also willing to buy goods or water or anything & definitely they will not demand for a price.

Those cutepatotie cones at the peak!
I was still able to manage wearing sleeveless despite of the cold temp. around!

We were supposed to traverse to Badian falls but it was a 4-6 hour walk from the peak so we decided to proceed to Tingko, Alcoy beach instead to take a sea dip! 

Playing with the Sunrise that usually come & go that morning!

3. Mystic Island - Siquijor!

The Regional Rural Sanitation Inspectors' Summit happened to be in Siquijor this year, specifically in San Juan. I have been in the place for a few times but summer days will be the best season to visit the place really. We also had a chance to attend the concert of Hajji and Rachelle Alejandro at Maria, Siquijor. And the highlight that Siquijor can offer at its best are the sumptuous & plenty of seafoods they have! Superb!

4. Team Building at Hagnaya Beach Resort 

Mid-Year Program Implementation Report for this 2014 was held in Hagnaya Beach Resort, San Remigio. It was my 2nd time to attend this activity with the DOH. That was tiring yet fun-filled team building!

Meet my biggest pet friend!

Hello there pool-buddies!

I will never bid - Goodbye to you Summer!

To wrap it all, these were my Summer 2014 adventures. It might not be as luxurious and extravagant as yours but I am HAPPY for it. I am gonna look forward for more adventures in all year-round seasons.
