Saturday on a Yacht

April 10, 2008

Originally, I had nothing to do this saturday. The night before, I was even planning on what to do tomorrow. Should I go to the mall, or go to the gym? Nah, 460 for some dota? Maybe. But anyway, I ended up on my friend’s yacht this saturday, and it was an avalanche of laughs, craziness, and fun. As in! Hands down, most fun I had in my summer vacation. Here’s how it went…

7:50am…

Okay, so the whole thing was gonna start at 8:00 a.m right. So I was a bit nervous that Jasmin(the one who owns the yacht, damnn gurl! haha) might get mad if I was late, judging by the text I got earlier in the morning (dns? -jas). I thought it could be translated as, “Where are you? You’re supposed to be on the way now!” haha. Buuuut, upon my arrival I found out that I was the first one there! Anyway, I hung out at Jasmin’s house and she uploaded Bust-a-Groove on my PSP. Snap!. And I kept myself busy with Street Fighter Alpha 3 and Bust-a-Groove. Okay, it was around 9 when the others arrived. Shortly after we jumped in the van…Nicole, Cara, Javy, Jasmin, Rizbelle, and I. 

10am…

So were in the yacht now getting dizzy and nauseous resting in the lower deck. I was doing some magic tricks while Javy was trying to figure them out. Some people were getting hungry and some were taking pics already. But in around five minutes, the spaghetti and lechon manok was brought out and we started eating. Tasty food, I thought, can’t wait to go swimming too. Swimming….I’m not much of a swimmer but it’ll be fun. How was I supposed to know that I would have to swim with an empty water bottle stuck in my ass…how was I supposed to know how crazy it would be? hahaha

So the yacht dropped anchor and the life jackets and sunblock were brought out. Then we started swimming. Javy and Jim wanted to swim to the shore, and I joined them. So I floated on my life vest and paddled. Mid way, I got tired and headed back to the boat. So I kicked, I threw my arms on the water, and trying at least to move faster than a sea urchin. I finally made my way back to the boat, then Cara wanted to go to the shore too. So I started my kicking and throwing my arms again, and headed for the shore. I never reached it, by the way. I almost did….but turned back for a reason that I forgot. lol.

A couple of hours later, something peculiar happened – we noticed there wasn’t enough drinks. Uh oh, we just had a couple of cokes, two bottles of water, and one can of pineapple juice (which I drank right after). So while thinking of a way to get some drinks, we played with ice. Yep, ice. That’s when I realized how useful ice could be, you can rub it on your skin, rub it on your seat to cool it, step on it to cool your foot, let it sit on your head, let it melt in a bag so you can drink it later….the list goes on and on. Ice got a lot cooler then (o.o). 

So0o. At around 2pm plus, we realized that we had to buy water, and the only way to get it was to swim ashore and go to a store (doi haha). So the girls got an empty water bottle and put 500 pesos inside for the guys to use to buy water. Five hundred pesos, three men, one quest. Kinda reminded me of Lord of the Rings, except it wasn’t The Ring of Power that I was bearing, and it sure as hell wasn’t on my finger. So I had to carry the money in the bottle, and the only way to do that was to stick it in my trunks so it won’t float away. So there, I just shoved that thing right in there and started swimming. 

We made it on shore and walked a bit to this store that sold water by the bottle. So we bought 23 bottles thinking that each person drank around 2 bottles. Okay, but when we were walking back, another problem arose: How do we bring these bottles back? We can’t swim with them, so we hired this guy to bring us to the yacht in his bangka. We are geniuses. So anyway, the boys, LEFT FOR DEAD, return as heroes!=)) Ok, I couldn’t resist that 300 quote. I’m so full of it x.x 

And that pretty much sums up that day. But here are some highlights too:

“Men aren’t supposed to care!” -Jas

Me: Knock, knock
Javy: Who’s there?
Me: Interrupting cow
Javy: Interrupting co—-
Me: Moo.
