Weekend Getaway

I had a really really great weekend. After having my review on Friday, me and Cha headed to IGaCoS right away to catch Rys' parents. Cha and I have to pretend we got there by ourselves and that we don't have any company in the resort who went earlier than us. It's for the reason that rooms are to be occupied by 3 people only (we're 5 --Rys, Cha, me, Kar, Shera). We arrived roughly 7pm.

The beach is inviting. If only I wore my swimming clothes already, after the crew ushered me and Cha to our spot, I could have dived in already but we have to let our company know we're already there. So we were like very vigilant because the management's eye is everywhere. We got together for dinner and jumped right in the waters after meal. We didn't expect that swimming is til 9pm only. Boo!

Overnight with friends are expected to be a not-much-sleep night. We chatted about anything under the sun (or moon rather, haha corny) and ate chips. It's actually Kar's birthday and we actually wanted to surprise her and Rysa too (her birthday is on Monday). Me and cha got a hard time making alibis just to get to the room to make our fancy lil surprise. I think we had to make 4 different alibis til we finally had no other company.

We had the cupcakes and the candles but we don't have anything to light those candles on. Good thing we saw a staff sleeping on a chair. He had a lighter. Yipee! We lit the candles and walked our way to them on the bench. We sang the song, the Happy Birthday song, and they were totally surprised. Goal met!

Here's what we made for them.

Kara's and Rysa's

I wanted them to cry but then they didn't. Kara was almost teary-eyed but Rysa wasn't for the reason that she was just shocked though it was her 1st time to actually be surprised.

The rest of the night, we just giggled and talked about anything. Me, Kara, and Rysa was up til 4:30am. I wanted to eat a sandwich then so we headed to the room and basically left the sleeping two on the bench by the beach. And the 3 of us fell asleep in the room. Haha! It was just 2 hours of sleep, for crying out loud. The original plan was that we'll see the sun rise. Failed. We woke up 6:30am. Cha and Shera went to us 'cause they were awaken by excited children wanting to get wet already. We changed our clothes and swim again.

By lunch we grilled chicken, after which, we had a bountiful lunch. And shortly after, we went home after playing table tennis. Rysa's parents were our sponsor for everything, by the way. We are just so thankful for the getaway. It was a great weekend to remember.
