Last session + Heat Wave + Toothache

we are on the last blow of wind in our lovely beach

and i am a bit sad about it.

i wish i had an 11m or just for the wind to stay for a few more weeks.

but altogether it's been a great season!

I am actually surprised that i used my 5m sooo much, i thought i would not be needing it too much

but i did!

Now i have a few weeks to endure this heat wave.

And i tell you it's freaking humid as hell and since it's the peak of

summer in the Philippines, Boracay has been going off the hook with tourists!

I've been going nuts because there is toooo many people in the beach and one of the reasons i moved here is for the "laid back" life.

April is not laid back in this place.

Well, on the other side of things, parties are going on everywhere, even here in Kasbah.

so in the end it's still fun.

i've been busy organizing parties here and there, can't even update my own blog, running around like crazy, can't even find time to hang out.

and i really wish for it to be over soon.

Today i get a day off because i am heading down to the city to get my first surgery ever.. and am scared.

i've been trying for a year now, NOT to have my impacted wisdom tooth removed but the pain is just insane, i can feel it in my head and until the tip of my fingers.

Last night i was in so much pain, i had to drink mefanamic acid, anti bacterial and anti-histamine

(because i just found out that am allergic to mefanamic acid, it makes my eyes and lips puff)

that i was knocked out at 7pm and missed the season closing party at Hangin Kite Center, what a bummmer.

i also woke up at 1am because of the pain that i had to take a 2nd batch of pain killers :(

and i am not really a fan of meds.

and i didn't stop taking the mefanamic acid, so now i feel like a dying puffer fish :/

o well,am gonna go to the doctor and be brave and get this tooth out.

I'll try to post some pictures of my "first" surgery.

Here are some photos from my super lightwind last session in Bulabog.

(it was such an effort to even jump with my 9m being my biggest sail.)

but i was persistent as the next session i might have is in China

PS: this NBI e-clearance thing is driving me nutZ!

why is it so hard to get a visa to china?!

The December Showdown rundown

Spell HECTIC and that's me. December is always a hectic month, i thought this year would be different because we didn't have the WONW event but boy was i wrong.

As you all know, i am now riding for BEST kiteboarding. First asian rider on the team - i will never stop saying this but it's the BEST crew in the world!!!

Also, i just got signed in with ROXY and DC shoes, and got renewed for GoPro...wohooo!

Of course Tribu outdoors and The Headware are staple supporters

thanks to Jason and Jeena.

so it's gonna be a FAB year ahead when it comes to kiteboarding!

January is already full of surprises!! watch out.

On the other side of life, i've been going to Yoga class to strengthen the shoulder and i just love it as much as i love kiteboarding.

I also like the fact that i would be able to have Dulcinea Chorros for breakfast after yoga..

Yes guys, Dulcinea is now open in Boracay, in this place called Uptown which is near True Food in Station 2.

As much as i hate food chains opening here in there in our favorite island paradise, we really can't help that now especially with Mc D's opening up in Boracay Regency...uhhh such a waste of space.

Noli Aurillo has been Serenading us 4 times a week at Kasbah for the whole month of December, not to mention the great ambiance that my "front yard" called Kasbah is giving everyone.

PS: it's a pretty stressful job to make sure all you tourists have a great and "chill" time. BTW! lol

and i got my NEW Sol ION Harness. it's super comfy and really really snug.

i can grab my board so easy now. wiiiiii!

We also had a little christmas party by the river Nabaoy, i haven't been there for YEARSSS!!

me and anna were assigned to do the decor for our Mad Hatter Christmas Tea PArty..

it was one of those childhood dreams that you wish you have a reason to do, just for fun :)

The party was an awesome mess!! i love my friends!

PS: silver cloth courtesy of my mum.

so, in case you are wondering when do i wear my tutu. i wear it when am cooking.lol

Check out this new 2013 headware!! the new designs are to die for!

Incase you were wondering where i got all the party decor, masks, feather boas and glitters, i went on a short work trip to manila for some inspiration and shopping for the holidays.
