Boracay Island : The Best Beaches in the World





Wazzup Pilipinas!

Summer has always been everyone’s favorite part of the year. Two months of rest from stressful activities during the school year feels like paradise to students like me.

This year’s summer was a blast. My family and I visited Boracay for the 4th time. My daddy’s hometown is in Camaligan, Batan, Aklan so whenever we visit my grandfather, we can always go to Boracay if we want since it is near and we can afford the trip.

Boracay is a small island in the Philippines located south of Manila and off the northwest tip of Panay Island in the Western Visayas region of the Philippines. Out of all the islands in the world, I can say Boracay has the best beaches in the world.

Villa Excellance Beach Resort in Tanza, Cavite : A Roller Coaster Summer


Wazzup Pilipinas!

In every year we had our summer vacation. Many students like me got bored. And to control our boredom we do things like surfing the net all day, shopping in malls, and meet-up with friends and many more. But sometimes we cannot control what will happen to us. We just go with the flow because it’s maybe a destiny. Who knows? We cannot avoid every year the unexpected incident happened to us. Some are good influences but mostly bad.

What happened to my summer was like a roller coaster. I went to different places explore and explore. We even go to Tarlac because it’s my cousin’s wedding. And we stayed there for only 2 days. While our other schoolmates having summer class and UPCAT reviews we didn’t forgot to have fun. We had our swimming last April together with my previous classmates.

Calaca, Batangas: Priceless Memories of Our Province



Wazzup Pilipinas!

What about summer? Summer, is the much-awaited season of every student. It is our time to unwind, relax, and chill-out and our break from doing sundry school assignments, exams, and projects. This is the same reason why we aim to make the most out of this season. But in what way can we best spend our time during summer? My previous April-May has again proven that it is always best to spend vacation time with the people closest to your heart.

During my summer days, I was forced by my mom to go to my province at Calaca, Batangas to visit our relatives and to join in the celebration of the town's festival. We usually go there at least two (2) times a year. In all honesty, I would normally want to just stay home in Pasig City than to go to our provincial rest house maybe because of my flashiness/vanity.

But our recent trip to Batangas knocked all my reservations and hesitations out. For one, I got the chance to breathe in the cool and fresh air as we viewed the infamously beautiful Taal Volcano. Taal Volcano is known for being the second most active volcano in the Philippines. Along our way to our province, we managed to see the breathtaking scenic spot as we passed on the zigzag road of Tagaytay (sometimes called as Bitukang Manok).

My summer vacation was full of surprises and activities. We’ve gone to different places to ease the hot weather. I attended review classes in preparation for the UP Examination. My cousin celebrated her birthday and my Aunt got married last April. Indeed, Summer 2013 was fun at all.

We had our review class in the Ateneo Campus and their campus was very big, as the others say; it was one of the elite campuses in the Philippines. I had the leisure time with my friends; talked and study together; roaming around the campus. How I’d wish we can be like that everyday.

As a sequel for my vacation, we went to a certain place called as “Daranak Falls”. If you want a taste of nature but hate long travel time then I believe this one suits you.

Every student awaits their two month vacation or also known as summer. Not just students, but also the working mass. Everyone is all eager and anticipating this couple of months where you get the chance to relax and unwind from all the hustle and bustle of school or office life. Nobody can deny the fun that summer offers to everyone. 
 
Here comes the outing, camping and other recreational activities that include the jaw dropping sights from different beaches of which these activities are held.

But let’s admit that not everyone is enjoying their vacation. Just like me, most of the time, we only stayed home.

Kuhala Bay Resort in Cardona, Rizal : Grab the Moment and Go For It!



Wazzup Pilipinas!

How do we define summer? – A time in a student’s life to rest or to travel? An opportunity for us to learn something timely? Or to just have fun and spend quality time with friends and family?

Well for me, summer is a time to enjoy simple things in life without spending too much money.

Some people might have traveled to different places with their families, some just spent their time at home, watching movies, playing games and surfing the net. But some people, like me won’t just allow summer vacation to go to waste. Every day is an opportunity to have fun, to get out under the sun and to accomplish a thing or two you can’t normally do because you are too busy with school works.

So how was my summer vacation? – Was it fun? Was it worthwhile? Definitely, YES! So How did I enjoy it and spent my time wisely? It’s simple, do the things you will enjoy and always go for it. It’s not actually the “things” you will enjoy, it’s the moment with your friends, while doing those things, you will enjoy.

Family Reunion During the Hottest Summer Ever


Wazzup Pilipinas!

When you say summer, it's something like a vacation for the students or maybe also for some employees. Summer is also a time when you feel like you're going to burn and look like charcoal, sweat a lot, and suffer heatstroke because of the extreme heat. In short, it’s so damn hot!!!

Summer for me was not just a time to rest from all the schoolwork and the usual household chores, or just staying indoors all afternoon staring infront of my computer browsing through the Internet or playing my favorite computer games.

I was also able to visit my grandmother because of a special annual occasion. Every summer in our family there’s always a family reunion that we attend to. But this time, when we came over to the reunion venue, my eyes have gone wide open because of the shock - we were so many - there was a lot of us!!!

Robotics Training in UP Diliman

For me, summer is when we take a two month break from school and is usually the boring part of the year. From the past 10 summers (except last summer), I usually do nothing apart from sleeping, liking pictures on Facebook, eating food, and watching time pass by. However, for the first time, I’ve been productive last summer.

Last month of April, I’ve done nothing aside from playing, chatting, eating food, and sleeping. This is also the month of my birthday. I felt that my birthday was just an ordinary day, nothing happened special apart from the greetings on Facebook. As the days passed by, I decided to play basketball so I can be a little bit productive.

A teacher messaged Reinelle and I to join the training on Robotics sometime last week of May. At first, I don’t want to come because I’m lazy and the last week of May is the time that I will have my “true vacation”. However, as the days go by, I realized that I need to be more productive so I decided to come. This is also the week that someone from the review school called to remind me about the upcoming review classes.

What comes to your mind when you heard the term summer? Is it all about the time to have fun? Is it about having no home works? School works? Group projects and the stuffs?

For me, summer is about having quality time with the people I treasure the most and it is my family. It is about bonding with them after those busy days in school.

The most unforgettable summer of my life is when we went to the beautiful province of Pangasinan. Pangasinan is known for its delicious food like mangoes, boneless bangus and the Calasiao puto. It also has awe-inspiring beaches, marine parks and waterfalls, not to mention the ever-famous Hundred Islands. Pangasinan is definitely a treasure trove for the senses that is worth exploring again and again.
