After the games, we started munching the food and with lots
of chit chat in between. There was an idle time that gave us the chance to
sneak a sleep. At around 2pm, we decide to go swimming. After spending minutes
of applying sunblock, we then conquer the sun. We swim and we talk and we laugh.
I love how laugh is the most used word in this post. Laugh laugh laugh. We also
went to see the mangroves and stayed in a resort where we laugh about the
things prohibited therein. We swim and then we sit and play with the sand.
Everything simple yet fun. We headed back to the resort walking in the shore.
Life is indeed wonderful. The times when you are work-free and you get to talk
random stories with good friends.
We rest a little and eat again then we go to
a boat ride. The prod team was in the first boat and ccd, planning team on the
second. The ride was breath taking. Literally because you get nervous when the
current is big. But breath taking indeed because of nature’s beauty. Our
country has the sceneries you’ll really be proud of. The environment isn’t
ruined. Aaaaaaah, this is life. THIS IS LIFE. Our boats met in an island where
we stayed for photo op, quick swim, and unending talks. The place seems to be
being developed but left unfinished. The man made stone formation made our walk
easier but the natural rock formation above made it harder. It was good though.
The sea and the creatures beneath are wonderful. We went back to our respective
boats and go sailing.
All the while, I thought we are heading back to the
resort, until we saw sexy models having a pictorial in another island. I wonder
if it’s really part of the voyage, or even the bangkeros wanted to see those
girls upclose. Haha. Boys will be boys. So what do we expect but see their eyes
shine bright. We waited for the girls to left before we go swim again. What’s
cool with this stop over was the little cave. It was a little hole under where
you can swim and go inside the cave. I was hesitant at first but it seems that
the boys enjoyed it. They pass through and when they get back, the joy in their
faces are surreal. Some stayed inside the cave. Good thing because I can’t bear
it alone. It was 3second swim and someone from the other side will get you.
Happy happy fun fun. It was dark inside but when you stayed longer, you can
already adapt. Someone said “ang ganda, ang dilim”. Seriously, that’s how you
describe it. The feeling was legendary. Until everyone was out of the cave and
we head back to the resort. I had a serious muni muni and life reflection while
on sail. My officemates are good friends. My job is hard but it’s how you party
harder. When can I experience this with partner. The nature is beautiful. Life
is beautiful. We then go to bath and found out that most of the contractors and
bosses already left. We stayed there for few snacks and drinks. At 8pm, we go
home with tired body but bringing happy memory. Road trip begin again and the
road tripped us. We’re lost for an hour and after asking 4 persons for
directions, we finally found the way. We stop over at fast food in SLEX to grab
a quick dinner and one by one go home sweet home.
Tomorrow is a holiday and I will be working . And the day
after that, and the next day after. And that’s the reality.
