In to the blue: Crocodile Island, Boracay ++









Out Diving with Angela, Peter and Friday :)
If we have the technology for canine diving, am sure Friday would be the first.

We went to Crocodile Island, just a couple of minutes out from Boracay.
School of Nudibranch, Variety of Anemone, Soft and Hard Coral, Fan Carols are also rampant in the area. No underwater camera this time so i had to create a mental picture in my mind with the stuff i saw and look for them in the books when we get back on land.


these are today's honor roll

Moray Eel

Batfish

Spanish Dancer extremely beautiful underwater

Soft Coral - Bubble Coral - i find them really nice and really wanted to pinch it underwater

Diving without a camera is hard for species identification, i can't wait for the GoPro Camera i ordered to arrive when my mum comes home..am sooo excited I got a GoPro Helmet Hero POV camera with accessories for Board attachment and a 60m waterproof casing. Fantastic for Surfing, Kitesurfing, Wakeboarding, skateboarding, Deep Diving and even just taking normal pictures because its HD..here's the set up that i got coming very soon

SICK!!!! AAAAH!

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

by Boracay History

today marks the last party of Hey Jude Bar in WhiteBeach, a very emotional but happy ending to 10 years of pure happiness.

so yes, we decided to vandalize the white walls and we did a very good job.

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.

MotherF*cking Capitalism
- 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!
