It was...okay?

When one says summer, the first thing that comes to mind is spending all day at a beach somewhere far away from home. That's exactly what happened today, April 24 of this year's summer. Dad had an office outing to a beach somewhere in Batangas. He tagged Gab and I along as it was for free anyway. Like any other outing, we had to wake up super early, as in 3:30am early. We left the house at 4:30am, I think. It was a little ironic that my bro brought more stuff than I did. I only needed the PSP, swim wear, sun block and food. Yes, I didn't bring a camera. You may be thinking what a wasted opportunity this was not to take pictures of the beach. It was. And my mom is to blame for that. She was being a paranoid again with the out-of-this-world worries. Anyway, we rode a rented bus to the resort. The inside was freezing cold. And since my dad told me that it was not a good idea to bring a jacket, or even wear shoes, I didn't. Which resulted to my precious feet get chilled to subzero temperature. 3 hours-ish later, we arrived at our destination, a resort named Laiya blah blah. I don't remember the whole name. LOL. I got to the water as soon as I could. Unfortunately, the beach felt weird. The sand wasn't fine, and there's a line where the ground just turns into very soft mud. Plus, there were minimal waves. Long story short, this beach sucked ass. I like the beachside pool better. (It was conveniently hot. I wish that was because of the sun's heat, and not the other factor........) Depending on where my bro wanted to go, I switched from pool to beach, beach to pool. I was his only guardian, after all. Dad was with the other Insular Life employees, having fun. It was their outing, after all. Being Gab's care taker, I had to release my toy loving child inside of me. My lil bro had brought a lot of toys, mostly military stuff. He tried to recreate what he saw in an episode of The Pacific, which I thought was cool, and cute at the same time. haha. Fast forward to 4:00pm when we had to get prepped up for merienda and the trip back home. By this time, I had a lot of sand on where man does not like sand on. We ate a plate of Spaghetti for snack time and then boarded Bus #6 again. It took longer going home because of traffic. Then... I got home... I can't say if this was a great day or not. All I can say is that this was no bore for sure. :)
