Last weekend, my closest college friends and I gathered in Bantayan Island, Cebu for a reunion we have planned since months ago. Our friends who work from different cities here and abroad came together for this one weekend getaway. Though there were a lot of discussions and indecisions (in short for drama) happened beforehand, everything still turned out beyond great - Thank God! hehehe I guess drama will always be part of our friendship and maybe that’s also something we love about each other. Thus, our contrasting opinions and misunderstandings truly keep our relationship open and real – that made us not just friends but also a family at heart.
Bantayan Island is about 4-hour travel by land and sea from the central city of Cebu. We were worried at first for our friend, Fatima whose arrival flight from Dubai was also the same date of our reservation at the resort. I can’t imagine how she managed to travel for more than 12 hours in air, land and sea just to be with us. Thankfully, the universe conspires in helping her survive the stressful transition from nation to nation and the transportation from airplane to ferry. Good job Fatima, you are indeed a superwoman! :-)
We stayed at the Coral Blue Oriental Villas and Suites for two days and one night only. Yes, it was short but definitely a sweet vacation! In spite of the limited time, we spent each moment like no other.
Our night was filled with catch ups and two bottles of tequila. (Yikes!) We intended to spend this get together just as crazy as we used to do in college. And since none of us brought our individual partners, we had the entire night to be completely wild and free. Oh yeah!
None of us got drunk..Waaaah losers! :-p |
We recollected few of our memories back in the days – some were the good ones but most were the embarrassing experiences we still wish we never had. Then we exchanged stories of our present lives may it be about our family, career or love life. I have to say that in some ways, we didn’t just grow old by age but we also mature as a person. But if there’s one thing we all learn on that night, it would be that “gravity is faster than acceleration.” (???) You would probably ask me what it means. Hahaha Trust me, I had the same question when our friend Rhea (the master of corny jokes) shared that quote to us. According to her, gravity is defined as the falling of an object while acceleration refers to the increase in speed of something. Just like in life, it is easy to fall in love than to move on from a heartbreak. I know it sounds corny but I have to admit that it does make sense, doesn’t it? Hahaha Bravo Rhea! Bravo!
John - That is me. |
Joebelle - Adoring, Loud, Perky, "Maldita" |
Fatima - Sweet, Daring, Crazy, Stubborn when it comes to guys |
Ysai - Outspoken, Caring, Hard-working, Has a tendency to be silly when in love |
Ryan - Man with principle, Strong, Articulate, Confident but could be annoying at times |
Karen - Fashionista, Tough, Frank, Appeared to be "maarte" but actually very down-to-earth |
Rhea - Good listener, defender, Silent but deadly |
Vanessa - Cool, Charming, Behind those pretty eyes is a story |
We are a group of outrageous personalities who manage to love one another like brothers and sisters. Some people may have judged us for how we look and what we do but our relationship as friends will never be tarnished no matter what they do.
Our lives may have been separated because of the different career paths we chose but the friendship we built together will always remain deep and strong. I am just so happy to have people like them who I can be completely honest and open about anything in this world. Thank you guys!
Breakfast and ladies |
Sunscreen lotions all over our faces :-p |
Feels like we're the only people in the entire beach resort |

Joebelle..hahahah
