At Long Last-With the Dolphins! And Thoughts After...

I promised myself to go to Ocean Adventure today, didn't i?

And i did tell you how i was not able to go the first time, didn't i? Did i mention the cause?
I did. And it happened again.

Again!

I woke up late! For our 5am pull-out at ABS, i woke up 7:30AM and was left behind. AGAIN!
I had 14 missed calls from my workmate. Goodness! I even alarmed my phone at 4am and these 14 missed calls should have made me wake p from my slumber!

Anyway, natawa na lang ako. And because i was so determined to go, i went ahead. By hook or by crook, this time, i must really see the dolphins.
I took a bus going to Olongapo as advised by our supplier/driver for the day.

I managed to be independent and i was glad i had that experience. Paalis pa lang ako ng Maynila, ang mga kasama ko nakarating na ng Subic. I missed Eco Park, but that's fine, at least nakatipid ako. I had to be thrifty kasi wala kaming sasahurin sa next pay roll, wala kasing taping. So, sabihin na nating blessing in disguise. I would come back with family and experience Zoobic Safari na din.

Masaya yung experience, i was able to touch the dolphins. Meron din palang Swim Encounter and Dive Encounter with them but it would cost me 2K+ and 4K+ respectively. Too much for my salary today. It inspired me to really save some bucks.

This experience made me realize not everyone could have the luxuries of life man has to offer, really.

But one could have them freely if they go the natural way. I could get to swim with the dolphins if i went my own to some uncommercialised islands. I'm sure that of all 7,107 islands the Philippines have, i could still to one that could get me the chance of an encounter with dolphins. Pinagkakakitaan lang kasi ng ilang tao yung nature na libre namang binigay ng Diyos. Pero dahil,marami ng nagmarunong na pagkakitaan sila, maghahanap na lang ako ng unexplored place. Uunahan ko din sila.

Nature lang din napag-uusapan, bigla ko ding navisualize sarili ko as a farm girl. Merong manukan at babuyan, ang a farm to till and harvest. Then maybe a restaurant. Then my dream bookstore cum cafe.

Hay, dreaming really is amazing, it takes you to places. Planning seems to be invigorating, but acting on it seems to be a lot of burden, gives a toll of idleness. Seems to good to be true. Afraid i t wouldn't come true. You couldn't wait to make it happen yet you dread its impossibility. The fact that you think it's not possible makes you more impossible to be. Ah. Basta.

I finally met the dolphins!
