Last thursday, Cathy, Gretz, Mike and I went to Cebu. It’s my second time going there. But I haven’t been around the place. As in Ayala mall at Ratsky ang narating ko dun 7 months ago. Pero since a day earlier kami nagpunta, nakapag pasyal ba kami. Tinor ba nila ako sa cebu. Napunta kami sa Sto. Nino Church, Magellan’s Cross, then, nag Ayala Mall ulit kami, taz naglunch kami sa napakasarap na Cafe Laguna. Then, we went to the Taoist Temple. Nagwish pa nga ako dun sa wooden blocks. sana true. hehehe. Tapos ba, umuwi muna kami tapos nag rest ba at nag dinner kami sa neo-neo ba yun? basta chogbu kami sobra. kasama na rin namin dito si JP at Ces. Hayun, nag-Ratsky nanaman kami. hehehehehehe. walang kamatayang ratsky. ngagba.

Lunch time ng Friday, papunta na kami sa Tubod Flowing water, dun yung venue ng NLDS namin eh. Shempre dun na namin na meet yung buong team. ESA dragons — John, Angelica, Renz, Show, Kitkat, Val, Jareed, Amit, Saki, Lex, Jake, Lope and Gabe. ESA ata and second na pinakamarami after UPD eh. The whole afternoon ng first day eh puro team building. I met 2 paulinians pa. saya. one from ua&p and one from upd.

Saturday naman was another team building, mala Amazing race. Grabe talaga ang pinggagagawa namin dito. pero okay lang. for the team. hahaha. we were 6th to finish, out of 10 groups. The other activity was nag FLC ulit, ficticious LC. Last years, NLDS nag ganun din kami. Since I’m part of the EB, hindi na ako kasali. Part of the faci kami nun. Then, after the sessions, that night, Team ESA went to Tops. Hay grabe. wala ako masabi sa place. super speechless ako nun makita ko scenery. una, speechless ako, biglang napa mura na lang ako. kasi super ganda talaga. alam niyo yun. kakaiba. ang ganda ganda. ang relaxing. ang lamiiiiiiiig. I really love the place. from that night, favorite place ko na siya.

Sunday was pressure. hahaha. Since 4 am kami nakauwi from Tops, shempre super pagod, eh kakagaling ko lang sa sakit. hehehe. Sessions kami. then, one session, i was absent, sleep ako talaga. super sumama na talaga pakiramdam ko. Then, ginising ako ng kagroup ko sa marketing calls. So shempre planning planning… kahit bangagerz pa ako kasi kakagising lang. That night was Binibini Night. wooohooo!!! three ang contestant namin, as usual. HANDS DOWN AKO SA INYO TATLO. KAKAIBA!!! manalo, matalo, you made US, your team proud. kahit na, waaaaaaaaah. wag niyo na uulitin yun ah. hahahahaha. After that, party time. last night na eh, so todo party sila, me mga gising nga ng 5 am pa lang. ako, 12 midnight tulog na. super pagod ba. kahit sila party, aaaaah ako tutulog bahala kayo. hahahaha. kahit gusto ko kasama pa mga tao dun. wala eh. super pagod na talaga.

Monday, the last day. kumusta naman yung mga taong late gumising. hehehehe. closing plen na lang ito eh, kaso most of the people already left since some early ang flight, yung iba, nagpasyal pa sa cebu before ng flight. kami naman, went to Ayala mall muna and bought pasalubong chaka pumunta sa airport. Then, back to reality na.

hmmm.. what can i say ba? super nag enjoy ako sa conference na ito. wala lang. shempre my first NLDS was my first ever @ experience. walang wala akong alam nun abt @. so, hindi ako ganun ka enjoy. ngayon, after exactly a year, marami rami na rin ako natutunan. Super saya din ng mga batch na ito. Way different from last year’s. I’m not saying na hindi ako enjoy last year ha. pero iba lang talaga ito. Chaka, dito ko talaga na feel na, I.. we, ESA, belong in AIESEC. Ang laki laki na ng improvement from before. Our team, super proub ako. Most of them kasi hindi sila aware sa love ng @ers sa pagsayaw. pero join pa rin sila tuwing kami, the old members dance with the MC. Saya lang. proud ako basta proud ako. No words can explain how i feel right now. i’m so overwhelmed kasi. love ko talaga ang team ko. hehehehe.

bukas na ako mag-upload ba ng pictures kasi antok na rin ako, may pasok pa ako bukas eh chaka kulang din naman. hehehe. so bukas na lang 🙂
