Hi Everyone, I'm back. I'll keep my one month story short but complete. We left Manila March 31, 2006. We took China Airlines going to San Franciso via Taiwan.

It was so cold back then. 2 layers of shirt and a jacket and still feel the cold. Hehehe.

Our first week, we just went around Walnut Creek going shopping and walking around. Going to Pier 39, San Francisco and stuff. Our first major trip is when we went to Napa, the wine capital.

Our second week, Holy Week, we began our journey to L.A. Pero before L.A., we stopped over at Cambria, an "old" town found near the coast line of the Pacific (Highway 1). There we went to the Hearst Castle. After, we went straght to L.A. to our relatives there. Actually, outskirts of L.A. The next day we went to Edwards AFB Black Bird Airpark where SR-71's and other military aircraft are displayed. Nearby is the Edwards Air Force Base. After we went to the Hollywood Blvd. seeing the famous Hollywood letterings in the hills. We did not see any stars but there are a lot of hot women. Then we boarded the Queen Mary self guided tour. Sayang 'di ko nakita engine room. Hehehe.

The next day, we continued on our journey towards Sin City, Las Vegas, but before arriving here, we went to Mojave Desert Airport Grave Yard for a little aviation cemetery. There, we found a lot of decomissioned airplanes, experimental planes, parts and classified testing facility. Actually, it is a restricted area.

In Las Vegas, we strolled around visited some relatives, no gambling though. Lot more Sl*t* (yeah, got the point?). Hehehe. We took a look at some tourist attractions, MGM Grand, Pyramid, Hard Rock Guitar sliced in Con-Air. Hehehe.

After this, we went to Arizona via the Hoover Dam, we toured the Hoover power plant. Then a long drive towards Phoenix, The Grand Canyon. It was so vast and unbelieveable. After this, we planned to go back home to Walnut. Very bizarre plan to drive it through Arizona to Ground Zero in one day, grabe. We bypassed Nevada and L.A., that's Arizona to California. One day of driving, bagot. the whole trip took us 2100.++ miles at 70mph average speed.

Arriving home, we did a lot of laundry. Hehehe.

One of the last activity we did is attend the annual Cherry Blossom Festival Japan Town San Francisco. I saw Naruto! Syempre we ate Japanese food. Hehehe.

The final week, I decided on what to buy from my money now uped to ?. Hehe, bawal magyabang kahit maliit lang. I bought a starter RC package containing a Hobbico SuperStar EP (4-ch), Futaba 6EXAP (6-ch) and A battery Charger. All intact package to get me started in this hobby. Hehehe.

We bought pasalubong and arranged everything in Balikbayan boxes.

We left San Fo, 1am April 30 thats April 29 before 11:59, meaning we lost 1 day and our 30 is spent in the plane. We arrived May 1, 2006. Syempre dumaan ulit ng Taiwan. Hehehe. Haaaaaaay, back to normal nanaman!

I had so much fun!!!

T-72:00:00 'Till Launch

2006-03-28T10:55:00.000+08:00

72 Hours till launch to uncle sam's island. I'll be strapped in an ICBM or an Inter-Continental Ballistic Missle bound to San Francisco from Manila launch center. Hopefully, US Surface-to-Air Missles would not destroy the ICBM or...

I'm preparing everything from pasalubong requests (not really) up to camera batteries and budget allocations. Behind all those, I can't think of anything to do. Well except a game of LockOn, flightSim, target practice with a BB gun, watch TV, surf the internet or run around the house.

It'll be launched on friday approximately 5:00pm bound to Taiwan and to San Francisco. I hope I can have an online access, maybe from a public library or Starbucks with a Notebook PC or anyway to be online.

Hanggang Sa Muli... 'Pinas...

A Whole Wide World of Kalabuan

Ay naku... pagbakasyon talaga!

Yesterday, nakahanap ako ng magagawa, astig! I fixed my deranged M4A1 Carbine BB Gun Spring Loaded. Now it fires accurately and powerfully! Then after I tried firing 0.2g BB Marui Pellets. Pagkatapos noon, wala na akong magawa. I can't decide whether to connect to the internet, fly or listen to music. This continued until today. I can't decide on what to do. Kahit manood ng TV. Wala akong magawang matino! Ang labo ng Friday at Saturday ko...

While thinking, I had a nose bleed kaninang umaga! Napuno yung t-shirt ko ng blood!

Anyway, I'm decided na to buy an ASUS P5N32-SLi in uncle sam's land. Hopefully 2 nVidia 6600 DDR2 with 256mb memory so that I can run an SLi type configuration. That is why I am selling my PF5 Extreme and One 6600 DDR with 256mb memory for ~PHP10000.

Day In Day Out

2006-03-21T20:02:00.000+08:00

Ang bakasyon. Ang pinakamimithing araw ng isang estudyante sa kalagitnaan ng tao kung saan buhos-buhos ang mga takdang-aralin. Ngayong naranasan ko na muli ang bakasyon, nagbago nang kaunti ang aking pananaw.

Una, pagbakasyon, walang kang magawa. Paggising sa umaga hanggang pagtulog sa gabi. Nakatapos na ng dalawang pag-edit ng litrato. Isang blog ng kaklase at marahil dalawang pelikula, sobra pa ito.

Ikalawa, pagbakasyon, kakaunti lamang ang panahon upang magkita kayo ng mga kaibigan mo. Salungat na lamang kung kapitbahay mo siya, pinsan o may kakaibang relasyon sa isa't isa.

Kahit san mo pa tingnan, ang bakasyon sa aking palagay ay isang parte ng buhay ng isang estudyante kung saan kinakailangang magkaroon ng pinagkakaabalahan upang walang masayang na panahon upang matuto ng iba't ibang bagay, di man ginagamit sa pang-araw-araw.
