The much awaited Anniversary Climb at Mount Pico De Loro was a success! ( NAKAPAG ANNIVERSARY CLIMB DIN! yey! 1st anniv ko! woohoo! ) though mam bibo and I had a little trouble with the amount of food (many thanks to my mom) we had to cook. JM and Aiko helped us bring the food and amused us while they were at my house cooking, up until the end.
We can't thank enough those people (Alumni, Guests and Applicants) who went with us to celebrate the another unexpected year of this Organization (University of the East Mountaineers ~for those of you who don't know) and I personaly hope that the next coming climbs will be more fun and exciting
The weather was so-so, we had trouble with the some stuff which was solved along the way, i met some new people (guest) Jason and Revner. Chatted with the Alumnis and Chilled with the Applicants. It was hard keeping up with some applicants with only a few officers there but we did manage to keep them out of danger (?) and in order!
The mountain itself was breath taking (literaly!) but hey! we hiked, we camped and we came back in one piece! (XD). Socials went well, some people awed us and made us laugh so hard (special mention ko lang si JM and Aiko) and "Naghiwaga" na ang ibang applicants! wow wow wow!
Trail was slippery on our way back down, shet! parang may magnet yung soil and nyeta ang hirap maglakad. hahahaha!
We took some photos near the falls and in the wee hours of the morning, some us officers and a bunch of applicants hiked up to the summit of Pico! but didn't get to go up the "Loro" cause of the clouds and the possibility that it might rain. (A confession: Takot akong bumaba ng high places but I'm not afraid of heights bumaba lang tlga)

I survived last week. *we* survived it! hahaha.. though it all REALLY started out with my stupid for an excuse mistake and ended well, i guess. I admit the whole thing was really my fault (I started accepting it when a friend gave me a big SMACK! on the head)
Moving on... I wanted to catch up with the activities, so i tried helping alot, even though, i cried alot of times while doing so, (Tsokomani... ilabu! :D) but in the end i guess it all boils down to that guilty feeling. aheh... bangag pa ko.
The Exhibit went well--we manage to recruit a alot of applicants this sem who's waiting for the next time/activity this month. ( Sana magtuloy sila ) diba? aheh.. aheh..
Congratulations UEM! and belated Happy Birthday!
