To my Future me,
It's been a year since the last time I wrote here on my blog. I've been busy trying to participate which help me to live by the time I was down and depressed. Right now, I'm inspired again to tell you the stories that had happened to me by last year.
Lately, I've been venturing into mountain climbing, travelling around the Philippines, particularly the most beautiful beaches and provinces my country has to offer.
The Fortune Island Hols
We've arrive there peacefully, the sun is shining so bright, the sky and cloud's surreal, the place looks lively and peacefully. After an hour or less, the rain starts pouring. Inside of us feels happy having the rain feels beneath our skin, we even embrace the beach side just for the urge of it. That's the time i remember the scene from Great Gatsby where Nick's standing in the beach alley, the storm's raging, he's doing nothing, saying "...So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past". I will never forget that scenic view, how the water from blue turns into grayish dark matching with the howling wind and raging thunderstorms.
That time, the winds continues to howls like it gets stronger and stronger, boats gone wild, everything turns into something i wound't even believe to happen. So we run, run back to our tents, which at the time at any moment would flown away, so we hold on each corner of each our tents. We're all shivering, being quiet, hoping for the rain to stop, until Hails pour downs our back. I couldn't believe it at first, i thought it was just the sand drifting by the wind, but it's not, it continues to penetrate our backs that last long for like 20 minutes or so.
It finally stop, you can hear silence everywhere for a moment. Broken tents, wet belongings, some cellphones got wet broken, we all look awful by that moment. But I see in each of our eyes, the burning spirit that we all live and strongly face the nature were dealing with. There's the line, the infamous silver lining above the sky, a rainbow joining the dance of relief in our hearts as we continue to make things in proper.
At dawn, we started to devour alcohol, for that night, the heat is much needed. Ana, our Polish lass entourage, always looks pretty in every angle, brings some Magic Dragon to be puff by everyone who wanted. That's the moment, my first consume of the grass and i forgot how it feels, warm and smoother that the cigar. (I forgot mostly what happened that night)
The teen spirit and the madness embraces us, dancing, singing, conversing life, love and world. It's always wonderful to hear the point of view of others with this matter. For instance, I remember we were doing a game,( not actually a game) where we all have to introduce ourselves with the group and tell 3 things that the group's not aware of. It started and you can hear them saying where are they from, how hey like and hate dogs, were all not too drunk by that time to open things up and shake up the conversation. Until it goes on me, I'm also having a hard time expressing myself and thinking of what should i say. Then suddenly Ana ask, "Have you already fall inlove in your life". I've answered "Yes, I mean, we all are". They ask me to elaborate how did it happened etc,. I feel I have caught off guard that time, I mean effin love talks not my thing.
My mouth just opened and say "Honestly, I don't know if i know what falling in love means". Then immediately I ask, "What it is like for you all to fall inlove". The group began to get interest and talk, ( I think because mostly were girls, they do like having this love talks ). For what i remembered, KC says that she realize it deeply when the man he is inlove with had gone, Ana says that its like being somewhat stoned (like your not thinking of anything rather than your significant other) and mostly agrees with her.
After the love talk, life and how living conversation began. Believe me i feel highly Intellectual that that even though I'm not remembering anything, maybe not, but who cares, that's how i feel right now.
Due to booze and dragons, I woke up not remembering things, just the beautiful stars, the galaxy (which was so clear that it brings back the child in me).
The sun is shining brightly, the whole island standing lively like nothing's had happened the day before.
