International Surfing Day 2010

Swells get affected by Global Warming

and you know that no matter how cool they are waves pools just don't cut it
so if your not the environmental type, just be concerned about the swell

Tomorrow is International Surfing Day: June 20, 2010, leaving the Philippines with no waves on its hottest surf spots this time of the year.



if your not going out somewhere where the swell is good, keeping our beaches clean is a good alternative.

pick up a trash today


The forecast is not looking good, surf nor wind... :(

Truth be Told.

The Exodus:

by me

forced emigration
by the bible
departure from Egypt of the chosen people


by History
-the massive evacuation of people from the province of Jujuy, Argentina, in 1812, during the Argentine War of Independence - the twentieth century emigration of Jews from Arab lands - 80.000 Tibetans crossed the Himalaya for India

notes of love and support to Hey Jude Bar
which was forced to close down after 10 years of glory to make way to a "better" establishment

but NOTHING will ever, ever come close to what Hey Jude is all about.

A family, a clubhouse and a lifestyle that does not run around on being "be seen", being a VIP, nor being around the elite, the supposed to be privileged for the price of a week's worth of food money.

encouraging a healthy lifestyle through sporting events, camaraderie amongst locals and tourists from all walks of life, a beacon that leads in preservation/sustainable development projects of the Boracay Environment including its waters... i can go on forever, what i am telling you is that

the definition of "better" is relative and in this side of town, fancy clothes, shoes, make up and being photographed, et al... is not what's gonna be better.

- so we just say this to you, do whatever you want, Adios M*therf*ckers, we're outta here!



This is my note and signed me and Erwin's name as he was already in the DJ booth prepping up his final set.
We met here at Hey Jude at around 6 years ago,
we lived here for the last 5 years (during high season)
I learned to mix drinks,
play foseball (but i still suck bigtime)
watched a lot of football and some really weird sports like curling
learned to play frisbee (since the tournaments are held here)
participated in many fund raising activities
got to much drunk for my own good
met new and interesting people
i grew up to be me...here!
plus a lot more
but most importantly, i am myself --free to dance like nobody's watching



HEY JUDE FOREVER!

SKATEBOARD+STATIC

Sick!!!!!

Renegade Lover

I may be into a lot of sports and spontaneous travels but that is not a reason for me to not wear girly clothes. in fact i am known as the kitesurfer/surfer/wakeboarder/skimboarder and skater who has the girliest gear in town. and am proud of it.

i really don't think you have to look like a guy when doing these sports. i loooove gearing up with my girly shi*t. hehe anyho, when am not being a renegade on the water or land (sometimes) - i really prefer being in the water i wear maxi dresses, tank tops, short skirts, oversized rings and obnoxious jewelry

Renegade Lovers Maxi Dress, gladiator sandals from HK,
vintage leather clutch and accessories from various thrift shops around asia

Here's one of Dane's new stuff which i got to wear to beach wedding before it was even up in her shop check out more of her here and here.

bonfire + giant mallows + boardgames + tony stark

The river is our secret safehouse

away from the tourists, loud music and booze..

coming here has been mandatory for me, dane and erwin. and its usually use three together.

Useless boardgames, playing fetch with coffee, looking for unfamiliar creatures in the almost dried up river caused by the drought, movie night, bonfire and roasted marshmallows.

The river takes my worries away...

Wearing B.R.U. red three stars and sun Bikini by Kor + Liquid Force Snake Charmer Bordies from Republ1c

dinner...yummm. this fish was really amazing, i don;t know what its called but it's really goood!


am not an expert with this marshmallow thingy, but i like it burnt, its really crispy :)




coffee <3 size="1">




The tony Stark Drink, yeh i just had to put that on my title. I have been drinking Wheatgrass every morning before breakfast. Its really really good, it doesn't taste yucky as i imagined it to be when i first had it. It also gives me energy to get by for the entire day.

Tony Stark was drinking chlorophyll when he learned he was dying, chlorophyll is a good anti-oxidant which is present in Wheatgrass.


what is it with bonfire and ghost stories?! i really really hate the latter.
