April 02-04, 2011-The place was Orica Philippines Inc., Lamao, Limay, Bataan. It was our 4th time there. It consists of two houses: they look the same, like twins. The only difference is that the first one has centralized air; the other has this humongous fan. We usually stay at the first one, but this time, we’ll be staying on the other. They say it’s already occupied. We left at 6:00pm, together with the whole family and my Aunt with her husband and kid. Of course Dutch the Byotch is with us, wiggling her tail along the way. We arrived there after 15 long minutes. Usually I’d bring my entire Harry Potter DVD at knowing that we’ll stay at the other house I’d decided not to. I just brought my laptop and MP3 player.

I played billiards with my Aunt’s Hubby. At first I thought that that was a particularly boring sport: you’ll just shoot the balls on one of those pockets. I wondered how this sport made some people miss their classes and ended up broke for losing their money betting on games. My performance was superb but I lost. Billiards is not for me apparently.
We ate Chicken and Pork Adobo for dinner and as soon as it’s over, my Aunt prepared nuts. Like boiled nuts you eat when you go long journeys. It was 9pm when I figured I want to swim, so I did with my sister and cousin. The water was warm. It just lasted for 30 minutes. The place was creepy! Tall trees around you and the place is pretty dark. Then you’ll hear ghost stories everywhere. Well, no ghost can scare me: after Headless Nick, what else is out there?

The next morning we ate Champorado. Oh, it was my sister’s birthday and her friends will be coming over. At 10am I grilled some fish and pork. My other Aunts will be coming over as well. I must say being swallowed with grill smoke won’t improve anyone’s smell of things. As soon as it’s over, I plunged at the pool once again but this time with my other little sister. She wore this pink bathing suit. Well, she’s not a fan of pools. As soon as I steppes inside it she wants to get out because she was afraid she’ll drown. That lasted for about 40 minutes then we got ourselves dry.
My Aunts came bringing more food and cakes and when they left, we came back to the pool. This time, sister was up to nail it. She loved swimming so much that she didn’t want to get out. I’ve managed to convince her when I told her that Nagini was coming. It was effective. The funny thing was the wet clothes we wore went straight to the washers. I find this really funny because we’ll be going home with less dirty clothes.
On the evening of that day, the dinner was all that was left from lunch. We watched television a bit. My parents went to the pool that night. They were busy the whole day that’s why they obviously couldn’t do it until that point. I fell asleep at 12, which was impressive of me. We were told to wake up at 5 because we’ll be leaving at 6. That was irritating. We got home today and I fell asleep until half past 11 and I find that revolting. I hated myself for that.
The first act this summer was not really good but wasn’t that bad. I hope for more challenging ones after this. Like being stuck in an island kind-of-thing.
