exxy’s spot

the last time i went to zambo was about ten years ago…
and now fate gave me the chance to see it again..for free!!! =)

there are several notable differences..like the number of places to go and the gimik places that abound nowadays..i’m so intrigued through, they have a PINK sand beach! imagine that! i swear the next time i’ll be here i’m gonna spend a whole day lying  in that paradise…

i haven’t seen much in my almost three days stay but twuz enough to keep things interesting..i went with my cousins and their friends to a couple of tourist spots..my aunts gave me a crash course on the various mountain resorts and we went to a resthouse in the mountains (which has an area of 400 hectares)that has the BEST SWIMMING POOL ever so it was really worth the trip..

my cousin had a gig in one of the local bars..but i’m sorry friends, DO NOT ORDER ANYTHING YOU WANT. cognac? vodka? it will not be available =(  better ask what is available..then choose what you think is the drink that cannot possibly be messed up..their tequila sunrise and margarita were terrible though so stay away from the mixed drinks. stick to the san mig route.

it is relatively easy to go from one place to another..imagine leaving your place at fifteen minutes before the meeting..whoa! i love the laidback lifestyle here..totally refreshing!

i need to go back to reality in a bit but in the meantime..lemme just say, zambo is a great place to be when you are not workin =)
and my new phrase for the trip: c*ñ* bun@n@ b*s! hanep,ansaya!

p.s. don’t forget to eat satti! it’s really yummy..and oh, you should also pass by the barter place and buy maggi in curry flavor, apollo(my favorite!) and lotsa cheaper grocery items..and of course malong, pashmina, batik, accessories etc, etc…grabeh, twuz so delightful!   

there is an innate need for an individual to consider the choices one has made throughout one’s existence.

at one point you become this pensive being doubting the validity of the choices you made along the way. once a year i go to that point and think of the things i did for the last year.

it is not on new year’s day.

it’s usually on the eve of my anniversary on this planet. it saddens me that there are doubts creeping in my heart on the choices that i made for the last year. did i commit a mistake in my career choice ?( uuhhhh..too late to change career plans but you know gotta have options..in case i flunk!) did i commit a mistake in my life plans? i look back and i think of the possible mistakes that i made last year.

especially on my choice of words on those four fatal sundays.

but i shrug it off. it does not matter. i still believe on making the most of what i got..

on living life with a passion in everything that i do..

on making a difference in the lives of others..

on choosing what i think is best under the circumstances..

on doing what i can to make things better..

in the end, i guess it will not matter much what i was able to do or not in my existence in this crazy world.what matters is that in every decision,i did it with an ideal in mind. there are no bad choices. only challenges.

no regrets =)
