Ok, this is going to be longer than usual. My body is still aching because of the rides and the stresses and the. .hmm excitement? weeeh :D

We made it to bora last weekend. We had doubts of not going to be able to make it but we did! We didn't plan the details of the trip because we usually fail on that. We're good on last-minute-things so we just planned on going there and schedule it whenever Bamboo's going to have a concert there. Fortunately, they were scheduled on April 29, so at least we've seen hopes. Strongest motivation? BAMBOO! yeah, rock n' roll! heheh plus, we had a bonus sponge cola and (MY) Epy. :D

First things first:

1. Cottage/Room. We didn't have cheaper room or cottage to stay. Thank God, nong junior couldn't resist our charms and agreed for us 4 to stay in one room for PhP 2,000.00.

2. Smart Event Venue. We thought of going to swim at the beach but in our hearts, we were excited about the concert that we ended up looking for the venue. So it's there at the station one. A bit far from our location but still, "walking distance" heheh!

3. Sponge Cola. Yael's on full performance level that when I held his hand, couldn't get it off and had to shake it hard. waaah!

Here's a sneak peek. . .



4. Aftermath of Sponge Cola. We were really satisfied with Yael that we could still feel the intensity. We were still energetic to take pix even though we still haven't had enough sleep since we stepped out of the office that morning.


5. Transfer videos and images. We had to prepare for Bamboo so we had to find an internet cafe to transfer our pix and the videos. On our way, we saw Ira at Hey Jude! waaaah I can feel the intensity for the night's big event. Anyways, what a bad luck for us! Didn't have electricity power that morning. .

6. Henna Tattoo. While worrying for the electricity power, we stopped by a henna tattoo stand to get ourselves tattooed. Met Dan the botmen, sugar and mai of Boracay Republic and Sweet, the pretty Astig Girl.

my STELLAR tattoo ^_^

7. Just after getting tattooed, the power came back and we went to the internet cafe to transfer the files. So there, the cp is now ready for the main event. hekhekhek

8. Banana Boat Ride. After lunch, we prepared for the banana boat ride of our lives! This is the reason of our arms aching until now.


On our way back to the room, we saw Bamboo!!!!!!!!!! waaaah I felt so weak that I wanted to faint! He's having his lunch with Pancho at the restaurant beside Hey Jude.

9. Skim Boarding. Time to try Skim Boarding. Well, I just slid and fell twice in front of the crowd but still didn't fully learn the art of Skim Boarding. It was fun and tiring though.

10. BAMBOO! Now preparing for the main event. Upon arriving, we had to settle for the perfect spot. At first, we managed to go to the front side until it drizzled. As MY EPY has pointed out, the rain was a blessing. Yes it was because the people at the center stood up while we went at the front despite the drizzle. So I had a closer look at my EPY :D



After a number of games and other performances, the time came for the main event! waaaah Bamboo na!!!!!!!! Killing in the name! The aching arms and legs were ignored. My BOO was in front of me doing his trademark moves and stylish singing. His bandmates, Ira, Nathan, and Vic were still incomparable as ever!

Waaah! Because of over excitement, I wasn't able to save the last part of their performance. It was pretty interesting where he ended up the show singing, "Di Matatapos" many times even after they were all gone off the stage. Haaay. .Bamboo you really rocked me! grrrr

The Bora trip was overwhelming that I love to go back there. But thinking twice, I think it was Bamboo who made it so overwhelming.
