went to EK last saturday... it was fun... REALLY fun. i guess i needed a break. i don't want to spend my whole saturday alone...at home...in my room... because i know i will just spend my time... thinking... reflecting... reliving what happened last Friday. good thing kwek slept over at my house last Friday... at least i had a friend who would stop me or slap me if i sulk in one corner...

ANYWAY i'm getting depressed again so I'll just talk about what happened when we went to EK--my very first time to see that place by the way. we started our day with the bump cars. OMG, we were like kids... after one round... we'll run and go back to the entrance and wait for our turn again... LOL. in other words... KINAREER na namin ito. hahaha.

everybody rode the ferris wheel... me... well i just want to stay here on earth thanks very much. so emer and i rode the swan thingie? anyway, after that emer pulled me towards the space shuttle... but i really couldn't ride that thing coz i know i'll just die. he finally gave up in convincing me that it would be really fun. yeah i guess deep inside... i know it'll be fun... but i guess i was just not in the mood to do such a daring thing at that time. maybe next time... when my stomach is much stronger and... when i'm feeling much better.

everyone also rode the anchor's away but hell...AGAIN, i still want to live and start a family and have kids NOH. so Say and i went to the mini roller coaster instead and... it was fun. he was scared... but i convinced him it was harmless... and it was! i'm good.. but he was still kinda scared... hahah. we were the only ones riding that thing. and after the 1st round, we went to a stop first then about to go for the 2nd round again... i told Say... ok... let's try not to scream this time... how about we talk about something once this thing starts running again. so we did... i told him... ok how about this... then i told him what happend last Friday... but we were about to drop from the vertical climb... and Say was shocked he said, "huuUUUHHHH?!?"... and... down we went... ".....WHHHHHYYYYYY?!" and i said... "BECAAAAUUUUUUSEE...!!!!......." and we swirved and it was becoming really fast and we were like talking and screaming and laughing at the same time hahaha.... but deep inside again... i was devastated... then again, i needed to be happy. and people around me were happy... so eventually... i became happy as welll... even for 1 whole day. but i still missed him...

ANYSHIT, so that ended... we went inside the arcade/souvenir store. i got a henna tattoo just below my nape. it looks like a spikey scorpion of some sort...? i don't know.. well i'll post the pic here sometime. just have to figure out how to send it from my sister's cellphone. it looks... nice! and by the way, thanks to kwek for this tattoo... she paid 100 bucks for this cool shit. i'll treat you next time don't ya worry mah friend.

then we went directly to the resto and ordered food coz we were so friggin' hungry already. we ordered 2 whole roasted chickens, a platter full of barbecue (both chicken and pork), gravy (*drooool*), strawberry jellos, and brownies. it was hella WORTH it.

good thing we were inside the resto when it started to rain. HARD. we didn't have umbrellas so we waited for the rain to mellow down a bit. so finally the rain mellowed down... we went outside and went back to ride the bump cars again. we rode it twice and then they went for the flying fiesta...? i hate those kind of rides... where you just go round and round and round... it's boring (*voice inside telling me--admit it you're just scared*) ... i want some variety... ya know?! LOL.

so after that they rode the Space Shuttle. omg, i can't believe i missed it. well... coz during that time, i just didn't feel like i want to think about death i guess...haha. so Say and i just watched them. watching them alone was unnerving... what more if i was actually sitting there... imagining how it would feel like if we get stuck in the middle of the loop? i think it only lasted for 2 minutes or 2 1/2. STILL... i only think i can ride that thing if my beloved was with me during that time... how i wish he was there...

ok NEXT STOP was the Log Jam... oh yeah... we were really ready to get wet... the line was loong... but it was moving fast and before we knew it, it was our turn already. ok so i was really psyched... then again i was also kinda nervous because i saw there's this loooong diagonal drop... or...whatever! anyway, good thing during that time, i was already beyond hyperactive... so up we went... then DROOOOPPPPP!!!! ... gosh... G-force man... we were like WOAH!! ok... my hair got wet... my shoulders... but the fun didn't stop there... up we went again... this time it would be a higher drop.. more like... suicidal drop. and yes... G-force was grrrreat... but the drop took like forever before it ended. and boy did we get wet. i thought that i won't get any wetter than that... hell, i was wrong...

LAST STOP--Riogrande Rapids. Others told me...we would get wet...AGAIN. it was kinda scary... but for the most part of the ride... i was close to crying already because once our ride went on the surface of the water... once the water started running a bit rough... i was almost always against the current so i have to look at my back to see where we're going. and the water stained my friggin' ass. not only did my pants got wet... my undies got wet as well... from my butt to my thighs... and all around. but i think kwek is the more unfortunate one here coz she was the one who passed under the waterfalls. so she's wet from head to butt... to toe.... yeah. STILL... it's really an eeky feeling when you're walking around with your friggin' ass wet all over.

after that one, it was already around 7PM and kwek and i had to go. it was getting dark, and everyone was still planning to go to Tagaytay to eat and hang out...somewhere out there. so we had to commute... with our butts and clothes still wet. when we reached home, which was about 9PM... we were still wet. kwek and i ate dinner... went in my room... she lied down... i followed... then before we knew it... we both fell asleep... we didn't even get to take a bath first?!?!? eww...

lessons of the day: don't just bring an extra shirt (yeah i'm guilty as charged for doing that)... bring extra pants and undies as well. AND always go there with more than 4 people... coz we got a promo, 1,700 for four people... included in that package are ride-all-you-can passes and food for four. we were 12 in all... so we were lucky. you'll never know... there might be other promos next time -- the more the merrier. AND LAST BUT NOT THE LEAST, DON'T EVER PLAN ON TAKING RIOGRANDE RAPIDS AS THE LAST RIDE OF THE DAY... make it the first i guess, so you'll have ample time to dry up your butt... flying fiesta anyone?
