Kim and Berna's business launch


Yesterday, April 10, 2012. I was walking our dogs Kesha and Wako on the street when Joseph invited me to Kimberly's place. Surprisingly when we got there, they have their mini business na pala. Andun din sila Agnes, Auel and Eunice.



They're selling pizzas, shake and gulaman for their first day. I ate 9pcs of their pizza and they gave me a free gulaman. Yey! I missed their pizza since eto din yung lagi kong binibili sakanila when we we're having our mini-business on one of our subject in high school. Nakakatuwa!









Then the two boys invited Prince, Dianilo and Jackson. Unfortunately, late na sila dumating kaya shake nalang yung natira. It's funny kasi we're just like playing tinda-tindahan. We're the customers and their the tinderas. Para lang kaming nakatambay while playing. Pero may iba naman ding bumibili daw sakanila before we came.  For their first day, they earned 400+. Not bad! Goodluck on your next days guys! Here's a sample of their stuffs :)

Batangas2012

Went to Nasugbu, Batangas last April 3,2012 with the great Tropang Porjan. Maga walo lang kami, because the plan was so unexpected - which we are now practicing, since laging puchu-puchu lang pag planado. We only had this plan during Benjie and Jomarie's Grad Party.While planning, parang sobrang alam naming nagdo-drawingan lang kami. Yung tipong seryoso lahat, pero alam mong ang ending, hindi matutuloy.

So, we had another plan the next day, April 1 at home. Plan, chat, plan, laugh, plan, laugh, plan, plan, plan... So many suggestions. Bagiuo, Boracay, Laguna, and LJ's non-stop "Private Pool". Ending, sa planA parin, Munting Buhangin Resort at Batangas. So we post the final resort at our private page on facebook. Unfortunately, walang nadag-dag. Well, meron naman.. Jomarie and Rapunzel. Then the next day, we bought goods na babaunin namin for tomorrow with Dawn, Dan and Benjie.

April 3, 2012. We discussed that we're going to meet at 9am in the morning. 7am and i'm up, I don't want to be blame again for the cause of delay since they always wait for me everytime may lakad.haha! 11am and i'm still at home waiting for my friend's sms. I also recieved a message from Kat-kat that she won't be comming with us. DAMN TALKSHIT!haha. Oh well.. We met at Benjie's place 12pm and Lj's not yet ready. Ihahatid lang daw niya yung chicks niya sa may kanto. Ugh.. Patagal pa! Anyways, 12:30pm dumating narin sila Dawn and Lois. Lj's not there yet. Di pa pala sila nakaka-alis kaya nakisabay nalang sila ng chicks niya sa sasakyan. Then we leave na.. Tapos may nakalimutan pa sila Benjie so we had to go back.

1:30pm na kami nakaalis. Atlast! Thank God Lj's there meron kaming clown on our way. We passed through the traffic of Imus. A long joyride full of fun!!! Andaming comedy ni LJ. SOBRA!! We passed by Silang, Tagaytay, Mendez, Alfonso (We saw a tarp of our school's branch there), etc. Ganda pa ng view! Si Manong LJ naman puro reklamo. haha! When we got to Batangas, Dan asked a Manong who's holding a picture of a resort kugn saan papunta sa "Munting Buhangin". Then he yelled at Dan "Eto nga yun, Kuya" (with a very funny accent). Boy pick up eh! Anlayo ng sagot!haha. Napagtripan tuloy namin siya during the ride. Sorry Manong! We stopped at 711 to buy stuffs na kulang.


3:300pm. We arrived at Munting Buhangin Beach Resort. Yey! Nagbabaan na kami ng mga gamit and go straight to the resort. Picture-picture muna siyempre :)

Atlast!
Benjie, Lois, Lj, Me, Dawn, Rapunzel, Jomarie


When we reached the information booth, problems drove up. Thare's still a fee for bringing your own tent. We had no choice but to rent the cheappest accomodation they offer. So we decided to rent a Gazebo costs 1,100php. Too heavy for us kasi 700 lang talaga yung pinakasinabi naming budget. Luckily, we brought our extra money so we paid the whole bill. Inabot kami ng 4k plus for the 8 of us. Well, that's the  most expesive ambagan for The Tropang Porjan so far - take note, we're only eight. haha! Took a picture of it. Blur.

Yabang!
While Dawn, Benjie and I we're busy of how to fit up all the cash on our hand. The other company were happily taking pictures. Ansaya nila oh!

Lois, Jomarie and LJ

The lovebirds

Ansaya nila eh
When we got to our gazebo the first thing we did was to EAT. Sobrang gutom kaming lahat dahil sa long ride. We murdered Dan's Granny's Adobo. Yumm! After eating, the boys were all excited to hit the beach so they rushed to change their clothes. While the girls, hell yeah! We're all suffereing from our monthly bloody  period.  But we changed naman for the beach vibes.haha! Ang scary nga lang ng cr nila.




While the guys were enjoying the beach, us girls were just making tampisaw our feet and took pictures. Di narin nakatiis sa beach si Rapunzel so she had her moments with Jomarie. Tapos lumipat ulit kami ng kabilang gazebo at the end part of the resort wo we can have our privacy.


The lovefish. (corny ko!haha)
 As time flew, we just enjoying the beach. We made our first attempt of our sand castle, caught some sea species (LJ caught a jelly fish and kept it. Pero namatay lang din), played football, etc. Then a staff there reminded us to bring our order for our breakfast at the Cafeteria so Dawn and I took their orders and gave it to a Manong at the cafeteria.

When we came back, it's already dark. Time for dinner. Jomarie and Rapunzel were in charge for broiling the meat and hotdogs. While waiting for our dinner, the guys drunk their Tanduay. Chit chat, laugh, guitar sing-a-long, and Lj's non-stop complaint. We also built the tent (we brought two tents, kaso we're too lazy to build the other one so isa nalang tinayo namin).




Every people na dumadaan sa place namin, pinaguusapan namin. And there's this gourp of foreigners - fil-am actualy- passed by. They asked Jomarie and Rapunzel if they were selling the hotdogs they were broiling.haha! Tapos nasagi pa nung isang lalaki yung football ball and said "Sorry po!" with an accent. Tapos sabi nila Dan "sige ok lang".  He kept on saying sorry. Then Benjie the bad guy toned his voice "SINABI NA NGANG OK NA EH".  Tapos umalis na yung foreigner.haha!

Atlast! it's 9pm and were all ready to eat! We're running out of rice (sorry guys!hehe.) so we partitioned it equally and also our meat and hotdogs. It's very difficult!! I swear. Pero umasa talaga kami sa free breakfast from the resort.haha! Everytime may kukuha ng pagkain at magrereklamo sasabihin "Sige ok lang yan! May free breakfast naman tayo bukas eh!" haha.

Waiting for our dinner
After eating, the guys decided to swim again while the girls built our sand castle. Ang bagal ng oras. in just a spare of 2hours, ang dami na naming nagawa.








the ingetero boys making theirs too


And just what are you guys doing??
Guys also played  football

Teaming up
When we all reached our tiredness, Lj "the Eboy" and Dan took some action-stunts-kuno shots.








LJ making "pakitang gilas"
Benjie found a witch-manikin 

Dawn and Lois took a nap after a very tiring day. While Jomarie and Rapunzel having their moments. Benjie, Dan, LJ and I just chat. Nagtatakutan pa kami about the C.R.. Nabanggit ko na parang may blood stains yung cubicle, then LJ supported me saying "sa cr din kaya namin" (with his serious-slash-funny reaction). Suddenly, we just noticed na palayo na kami ng palayo sa may cr. Nakakatawa! Then every ship na nakikita namin nagkukuwento si LJ about Roro and Boracay. Kung di pa namin iniiba yung topic di pa siya titigil.haha!

While the night goes deeper, the conversation got boring. Wala na kaming mapagusapan. Tulog narin si "Boy Roro". We just stared at the moon and shared some trivias. Tapos nagising narin sila Dawn and Lois. Dawn needed to pee pero dahil nagtatakutan kami. Lahat kami eh sumama sakanya sa cr. LJ showed them the stains we're talking about tapos sabi ni Lois "Barnis lang yan! Nagtatakutan pa kayo". When we came back to our cottage. I continue to build our castle. I added a volcano, hills and rice terraces. Kaso di kita sa pictures. Then I got tired. Natulog narin ako sa may tent.


I woke up with a refreshing air!! AAAHHHH.. Can you imagine walking up on a beach hearing the sound of those waves. Feels like Bella on Breaking Dawn right! I swear, that's one the most fantastic wake up I've ever had. Then I saw Lois, Benjie, Dan, Jomarie and Rapunzel making tampisaw. I get up and saw Dawn packing up some things. I searched for LJ.. he's deeply sleeping. Poor LJ!haha. I helped Dawn to packed up and uninstalled the tent.

It's 7am and were waiting for our breakfast. They've decided to take their showers narin so that we can eat na. Dawn accompanied Rapunzel at the shower room while i was left alone to watch for our stuffs. Sobrang sarap ng ambiance. Ang dami kong napagtanto while waiting for them.

After they finish their shower we go straight at the cafeteria to eat. Eto talaga yung inasahan namin, pero mejo dismayado kami sa pagkain. Pero ok lang, laman tiyan din yan!haha



Our check-out time was 1pm pa but we decided to go home na. Dala narin kasi namin yung gma gamit namin at tinatamad na kaming bumalik pa. At the first part of the trip, lahat kami energized. Nagsisigawan pa kami for every views that we see. We plan of stopping by at some Bulaluhan somewhere in Tagaytay. LJ's treat. Pero lahat na kami sa biyahe eh tulog. May napagtanungan kami kaso ang mahal.haha! Sabi namin ice cream nalang. Nakaabot na kami ng perpetual wala sa mga plano namin ang nangyari.haha!


On our way home

It's already 12nn when we arrived at Benjie's place. nakakatuwa kasi 12nn din kami dumating kela Benjie ng april3 tapos 12nn din kami dumating. Parang isang araw lang nagyari yung lahat.haha! Nagpa halo-halo si LJ tapos umuwi narin kami.


The trip was so unexpectedly awesome!! We didn't know kung mageenjoy ba kami sa onti namin but it went very well! Thank God for blessing our trip. Thank God for lettign this trip happen. Thank God for having my friends. No words can explain. Ang saya niya lang. Period.

We hope sa May makapag ganito ulit kami. That time, marami na! We felt sorry for others who weren't there with us. Sorry if we didn't considered your schedule guys! Feeling kasi namin kahit imove ng next week wala ding makakapag labas ng ganung kalaki kasi walang pasok eh. Knowing you guys. Beside of our group name "Tropang Porjan" we're also called as "The Tropang Kuripot". But next time we promise! Gusto kasi namin ipractice yung biglaang lakaran, yung tipong walang pilitan para natutuloy. Kasi usually pag planado puchu-puchu lang eh. And pagaganahin niyo din yung pagiging kuripot niyo.haha! No offense but we also need to level up! Tama na ang pagkukuripot ok. Para mas masaya diba! Basta next time :)



IN ALL THINGS, GOD SHOULD BE GLORIFIED :D
