Baguio City : Fun and Horror in the City of Pines

Wazzup Pilipinas!

A city situated on top of vast and glorious mountain constantly kissed by the clouds, Baguio City is known for its cool climate and picturesque sceneries. Baguio is certainly one of the greatest places to escape the summer heat of Manila. It is a very relieving and relaxing escape from the intense tropical weather in the Philippines.

People herd the streets of Baguio City and its famous tourist attractions. Contrary to the beliefs of most people, Baguio City can offer more than a horseback ride or a rowing trip on Burnham Lake.

However, not many people see Baguio in the same light because it has been stereotyped by advertisements which really are unaware of the city’s true majesty.

A Summer Well Spent: Swimming, Music, Friends, and Whatnot

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Last summer, I gained a valuable skill. But not just any kind of skill, instead, a life saving one.

After years of not knowing how to swim, I finally agreed with my parents' idea of me attending swimming lessons with my older sister. At first, to lessen my fear of drowning, I asked the other students about their experiences. Most of them told me that it wasn't that bad and that it was actually really fun.

The coaches taught me the basics, then after a few days, they made me jump off the diving board into the part of the pool which was 15-feet deep. I felt my heart beating faster and faster, but I decided to jump and test my luck. Haha! After jumping, I realized that it wasn't that scary and that it was all in my head.

What I did on my summer vacation? How I spent my summer?

Well, Last late summer vacation, we went to Tagaytay with my mom and my aunties as the blow out of one of my tita because she was celebrated her birthday.

First, we went to Picnic Groove to have pictures with snake and crocodile and also to roam around. We rode horses but one of my tita was scared of riding a horse so she can’t join with us, and last before going home at Pasig we went to “Sky Fun Amusement Park” to ride in the tallest Ferris wheel in the country at 63 meters.

I saw beautiful view of Taal Volcano. I can’t forget this place because of the beautiful view and nature.
