Flagellation (Bulan, Sorsogon. April 2, 2010)

I ran out the door in my undershirt when I heard my 12 year old cousin shout, "Penitensyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!". Only two men did the sacrifice this year in Bulan. They were passing by our house when I came.

I struggle to take a shot with my Canon D10, only to realize that Bloo (D10) did not have a memory card! I was downloading photos when I ran out. Argh. I shout to my cousin to get the SD card from my laptop, when I realized as she ran out, that I had an extra memory card in the fanny pack I was wearing.

By the time I put tha memory card in place, the Penitensya men were already 10 feet away. I ran towards them in an attempt to take closer shots. I was wishing I had my Igit (Canon S5is) in my hands. His power zoom is amazing. I wouldn't have to worry about the blood splattering all over me everytime the men will hit their backs, if I was using Igit. Still, I managed to get some decent shots when the men stopped to rest.

Morning acitivities on a Good Friday.

Halo Halo sa Sabang! (Bulan. April 2, 2010)

A sweet treat on a hot day! I promised my baby sister (8 yr old, okay, not a baby anymore) an order of Halo-Halo if she accompanied me to Sabang beach to shoot. She willingly complied knowing she'll be fed after. :)

After the shoot (photos will be shared later), we went to Christel's Burger to eat their yummy Halo-halo. My sister ordered an additional order of spaghetti.

Sabang Beach, Bulan Sorsogon.

Funny story, when we were about to pay for our orders, I realized that I didn't have cash on me. Good thing, Danica remembered that she put her Php 200 in may fanny pack. Talk about embarrassing, my baby sis paying for our food. Haha. (I paid her later that evening).

Home Cooked Meals (Bulan. April 2, 2010)

Check out what I had for lunch that day! I love the food in the province. Hehe.

Cucumber Salad, Fried Tilapia, Spicy Squid in Coconut and Fern Salad.

Molino (Magsaysay Ave., Naga City)

I went to Molino last holy week 'coz i was so excited to eat their yummy Adobo Bits! Plus I was meeting two of my super friends for dinner (and drinks).

Molino Grill is newly renovated. It was closed for months I think and they just opened recently, just in time for the holidays. I liked the new place, it's cleaner and more presentable.

Adobo Bits at Php 135. I was so disappointed because it was not crispy like it should be. I complained to the waiter but he said that there's nothing he can do if the chef  (he called him 'Cook') made it that way. I didn't want to get upset and return the plate coz we might get the "spit treatment" from the waiter. Plus, I was having so much fun laughing with the girls.

Beanbag (Naga City)

I looooooove the coffee in Beanbag! It keeps me awake for hours! During college, coffee here was my cure for drunkeness after an all nighter from Clubmate (a club beside Beanbag in Magsaysay Ave). A Caramel Macchiato would always keep me decent when I finally decide to go home. LOLz.

I had this Caramel Macchiato (Php 80-tall in Magsaysay Ave.) last March 31, 2010 after drinking booze of course. Haha! I always order this coz it's my favorite drink.
