YESSS!!! I finally got my wish to try AND learn to surf!! We left Thursday evening and arrived at around 3am in San Juan Surf Resort in La Union (see surf.ph for more surfing info) and went surfing the day after. Man, it was GREEEAAATT!!! My surf instructor was a guy named Jong who is really nice (I think they're all nice anyway).

I saw Nicole Ordonez Saturday morning and I think we were both surprised to see each other there. She was there with two friends and said that she was also going to learn to surf, but I was in the water with her 2 friends and didn't really see her anywhere - and I did try.

It was on the second day of surfing that I was finally (!) able to stand up! Yay me!! Yup, that's me hehehe and it was sooo great! Such a wonderful feeling talaga!! I'm totally going to go and advertise surfing to everybody I know who I think would want to try it out!! Besides, I REALLY wanna go back and continue surfing!! I would've surfed the whole day but my body couldn't take it. My arms hurts...

Now I know why surfers have washboard abs and hottie arms... it's the sport itself. You need your arms to lift you up and to catch the perfect wave... then you need hottie abs to use as buffer against the waves that hit you... and finally, really nice legs for just the right board balance...

All this would not be possible without the bottomless knowledge that is stored in the brain of my very good friend Trish I do miss scuba diving, though...

We also spent some time in Baguio. Went biking in Burnham (?) Park. I figured that since my arms were already hurting, might as well add my legs to that
