PHILIPPINES | Friday, 24 May 2013 | Views [420]

for my birthday this year, me and my friends couldn't decide what to do. well, mostly my fault since i was so fickle-minded.

our options were diving, windsurfing, beach, tagaytay drinking sesh, staycation or just as plain and boring as drinking out.

it was pretty hard to decide what to do as a group because:

1. not everyone dives and dive resorts are usually not swimming beaches

2. can't do windsurfing because i don't swim. yes there's a life vest but i still can't stop the wind from taking me to the deep part of the ocean

3. an overnight stay in one of batangas' beach resorts but didn't have time to research for places to stay

4. borrow a friend's house in tagaytay, but found out most of the group have saturday work so we'll get there late evening

5. staycation wasn't fully explored coz its expensive and boring

6. drinking out and partying is always a safety net if all else fails

and as much as it should be All About Me because it IS my special day, i want everyone to have fun :)

another perfectly valid reason was that i got busy with work to check for any accomodations and confirm to the group what the final plan will be. so most of them already made new weekend plans, leaving only the partying til the wee hours as the option.

i was ready to throw in the towel, even got tempted to celebrate alone in boracay, when suddenly, my friend furnished me with a map and an itinerary...
