North Luzon Trip (for real)

So, it all started when my mom and I were out one monday afternoon looking for a new foam for my bed.

then, my aunt texted us that we should get home immediately and we were like

but then she told us that we need to talk about the upcoming (as in happening on Thursday) Casil Family Reunion and so we decided to make her come to us to the mall so we could talk…

Anyway, it ended up us going to Cabalitian, Pangasinan 🙂

very beautiful place :)) but, very hot…. Im like a degree away from having heat stroke….

It was fun 🙂 I got to meet so many people who looks like me… hahaha! and childhood friends, my cousins whom I cant barely remember

and ALSO! i got to meet one of my cousin who is a doctor and one who is studying med (the other one cant come because she’s busy) WHAT AN INSPIRATION and also, i indulged on their books in their library at night which was awesome!! SO.MUCH.BOOKS

and 92 year old and below grandparents 🙂

who by the way, as I said in past posts… still help each other out on stairs and bathroom and stuff…

we just made them sit together while were watching 10 ft. away… it was cute…

also… had to sit with some grandparents for hours so they could talk to you with 5 different conversations for 100 different times… it was funny, sometimes boring and more

feeling

anyway, after that….

most of them went home… there were lots of tears.

oh, and they have a turkey for a pet… (or I dont know what for)

THEN we went to Baguio (were a degree lower in temperature is all that i need to become a human ice)

HI 😀

right after we arrived we went to the market and i bought some “pasalubong” for my friends and clothes for myself… (which I havent had the chance of given them yet ALSO, any food I had for them, I ate already… SEE FOOD DIET) <and also my family whom im with at baguio also dubbed me as their “pambato” (champion) in eating… i mean, 3 cups of rice every meal + desert and snack while in the car must be have made them say that… im not sure hahah)

THE NEXT DAY

first, we went to Camp John Hay

were ZIPLINED

and rappelled down the wall.. (its low but its my first time rappelling)

then… we went to Treetop…

and rode the frickin’ silver surfer!

then we ate (3PM) at the very delicious (but ive got to say poor service)

Mamita’s Bulaluhan

then we went to SM Baguio to just walk around (actually, my aunt was looking for a folding bed, it was funny)

THEN we went to session road

then ate halo halo (IN BAGUIO were its too cold to be true for Philippine weather) for the second day in the row

then we went home for the night market for some cheap clothes shopping (UKAY-UKAY)

THE NEXT DAY

we went to Mine’s View Park

were we took lots of pictures like this

and this

and this

and AGAIN bought clothes and stuff

then took a picture of this freakin’ creepy but beautifully carved tree

THEN we went to La Trinidad Benguet…

where they bought lots of vegetables (because its to cheap there)

and my cousin and I just sat in the car (because its raining and we’re too tired)

and had this delicious yogurt!!

THEN we went to the lovely Strawberry farm and bought lots of strawberries and peanut brittle

then…because its 4PM already and we are late, and hungry

we had McDonalds drive thru…

and my very brilliant cousin… had this awesome idea of… making placemats for the two of us for our food

So, we drove back to Cabalitian, Pangasinan to pick up our lolo and lola and sleep there for the night…

but before that… my aunt finally bought a folding bed at the store which made the car jam packed

BUT… i had to say this… NEVER (you already know this) NEVER drink too much on a long drive…

the combination of Coke and yogurt didnt do me much good as I was almost crying from needing to pee on our way back to Pangasinan. haha! it was so hilarious if you are not me… it was heavy traffic… and my aunt was making super funny jokes and I was holding on to my seat for dear life.. and when we finally had the chance to stop at a gasoline station my cousin was laughing at me because i cant walk straight anymore, and the woman before me was seriously considering to let me use the restroom first…

So, after that happy moment of making my most beautiful release…

we drove to

Binalonan to eat

at

where there’s so much

of which im scared of…. my other aunt scared me and I made kind of a scene of shouting screaming running around it was funny IF AGAIN you’re not me

then we drove to carmen and had another HALO HALO

we… actually we kind of didnt sleep, one of my aunts was being really pushy in putting our photos in facebook… so we slept at 4AM then woke up at 8 i think?? then we prepared to go home 🙂

(oh lookie… the sign that the house has been a home of doctors is there… I was staring at that before and I felt inspired)

but then we thought of going to my other lola’s house for a while in Umingan… where we thought of staying the night…

but my cousin and i felt a little irritated

by that because we had engagements the the after so we decided to go home after a delicious lunch and strawberry shake from some of the strawberries we bought from the farm

AND SO WE DROVE BACK TO MANILA 😀

OH PS

i had to put this one…

we tried to take a picture so many times in the car but because its moving it all looks wrong so… here is the ”best” one of the bunch… which is not good at all..

haha

special thanks to the owners of the pictures that are not mine

SO IN SHORT… I CANT REALLY GO OUT FOR A MONTH… BECAUSE OF THE THINGS and FOOD I BOUGHT… NOT THE CLOTHES I SWEAR… I DIDN’T BUY TOO MUCH CLOTHES! WHY ARE YOU LOOKING AT ME LIKE THAT?!?!??!?! I DIDN’T BUY TOO MUCH! NO! I DON’T NEED A THERAPIST FOR BEING A SHOPAHOLIC…

AND SEE CLOTHES DIET EXISTS!
