i miss the philippines too.
pea was telling me about jino + the rest at care channels, and suddenly i was-
need to see jino, must find out how arvin is doing, and spend time with the people of cc. like mushi.
den, your reminsicing of that part of our trip was really powerful. just that, we bathed in cold water because we were brave (and did not ahemboilwaterahem). and all the throwing rachel around- i might win now though! and, i simply must add miss pearlyn chen's using of MY SLIPPER to kill a cockroach.
den, you serious about going back? cannot joke you know..

Change...
I'm glad we met once again, to mark the 1st anniversary of our trip...
Yes, it's been a year since we spent a memorable experience at Philippines...
We have grown...
We have matured...
We have learnt...
We have suffered...
we have changed.
Thou we are the same Pea/Eugene/Rach/Den den, so many things have become different...
Haha, change really seems like the only constant...
But I'm comforted to know that we have another constant...
GOD!!!!

Memories and Baguio
dear team,
I dont know if you guys realised it, but 2 days back, on the 2nd of June, Friendster sent an alert saying that "Mark Louie's birthday is today!".... That only hit me today... somehow... I remember that we bought M.Louie a box of donuts from dunkin donuts, cost us abt 120 pesos if im nt wrong... and we ate the donuts in the living room of Cambridge. Thereafter, we spoke to Jhay-ar for quite some time and learnt about his sad past.
This morning, a sense of nostalgia overwhelmed me as i was speaking to Eug. And we remembered that we this (the early part of June) was about the time that he first joined us, and how we left for Baguio soon after... where the large part of our memories as a true team of 4 began... Baguio and Olongapo. I remember vividly the cockcroach brave eugene killed with his bare hands not too long after he arrived. I remember 4 of us and K.Randy at the interchange waiting to board the bus to baguio (2000 Pesos per person!) and i remember seeing rach reading Screwtape letters (her belated bday gift from me.) and Eug writing non-stop all the way to Baguio and how we talked about r/s issues. I rem Ate Chat, that petite but powerful lady who was such a delight to be with, picking us up the afternoon we arrived. And and... i rem that lovely sunset which is still the best i've ever seen, beaming brightly and proudly at our balcony...=)) The photos we took. They are precious to me. And those two dumb girls from my team who bathed in cold water (hohoho). And the wrestlign matches that we watched so i could learn some powerful finishing moves n practise them on rach! While we went through some tough moments in Baguio. In the end, we came through as a team. I am proud of us.
I miss the Philippines. truly. It is time to consider a visit back again...=)
With Love,
Den
