Cebu - Plantation Bay!

I've decided to create a travel blog :) Since traveling is my greatest passion, what better subject is there to write about! I'll start off with my most recent trip: CEBU! I went to Cebu last week with Herb, Gelo, Dino, Josh and Patty; we stayed there for about 4 days. We stayed at the Plantation Bay Resort, and the place is so beautiful!

Here are a few photos to show you how nice the place is:

Here's what you see after you enter the lobby <3 all blue!!

This is their tiny beach strip. Little mini bini beach. At the other side of the little house is a public beach, we were told it's only 30 pesos to get in there. I think the sand was taken from somewhere else:

 The board walk where we took lots and lots of pictures:
Here's more from the board walk, with Herbie and Gelo:
Here's a bit of the huge man made lagoon inside:

As you can see from a few of my pictures the place is really pretty! A great place for some R&R, not really a place to party. There are alot of stuff to do in the resort alone, there's a shooting range, archery range, biking, snorkeling, and two fun slides and ofcourse lots of swimming :)

Snorkeling:

The fishes here aren't as agressive as the ones in Puerto Galera (I'll blog about that later! When I have time..)


If you're planning for a vacation where you can relax and have some quiet time Plantation Bay is really a good place, (price though :-s)

Anyways, I'll leave you with a pink gumamela:


And my favorite OOTD: (dress from SM, cardigan from Forever 21, sandals from Forever 21)

**I love this dress, so femme and comfortable and it fits my body type perfectly. :)

Favorite OOTD

Here's my current favorite OOTD:

So I got the dress from Mango (on sale!!), blazer - I got this from Saudi (Centrepoint), I was wearing the wrong shoes so I didn't take a photo of it.

 I love being in the EMEA shift, it gives me lots of time to think about what to wear and how to my hair :) Like today I spent the whole morning trying to learn how to do a fishtail braid/plait. I'm getting there, just need to practice a bit more. That's all for now. :)

Fig tree


"I saw my life branching out before me like the green fig tree in the story. From the tip of every branch, like a fat purple fig, a wonderful future beckoned and winked. One fig was a husband and a happy home and children, and another fig was a famous poet and another fig was a brilliant professor, and another fig was Ee Gee, the amazing editor, and another fig was Europe and Africa and South America, and another fig was Constantin and Socrates and Attila and a pack of other lovers with queer names and offbeat professions, and another fig was an Olympic lady crew champion, and beyond and above these figs were many more figs I couldn’t quite make out. I saw myself sitting in the crotch of this fig tree, starving to death, just because I couldn’t make up my mind which of the figs I would choose. I wanted each and every one of them, but choosing one meant losing all the rest, and, as I sat there, unable to decide, the figs began to wrinkle and go black, and, one by one, they plopped to the ground at my feet." - Slyvia Plath


I think this quote pretty much sums up how alot of people my age are feeling. The feeling of being faced with so many choices and you want all of them all at once and then being completely lost because you can't choose. Then feeling like it's all gonna pass you buy and you realize you never got anything that you wanted...
