Juggling the Sohs

Depart on 9 Dec 2011.

This day was the first day we gather tgt after the last meeting we had in school before exam.
I brought a heavy heart, skeptical thought and mixture of emotions to the airport.
Don know, but there is still weird feeling in me.

Anticipating for the life in Philippines for the next 3 weeks.
First time ever, did i leave my hometown for such a long time. Best of all, gaining a whole new experience which is waiting ahead for me.


Our first group photo before boarding


Checking in at 0000.

Aww... looking through all these photos. Really brought back lots of memories.
Like how we started out on the first day.
Excited feelings + missing family = mess. HAHA!


Munching wat are you going?





 Boarding....

Arrived at Manila International Airport around 6+ am.

Had our breakfast and chillax at one corner before departing for another flight to Bacolod City.
   
  

Arrived about 10am and another 1hr plus journey to Bago City.
Where we will be settling there for the next 17days or so.
Heres our magic school bus!
Emotional!!! =(


Shermin and Han Yan


In Philippines, everything just so mini. Even their lorry.
Furthermore, you don see obese people. I always see guys or man with at least 4 packs abs.
Girls or woman are all skinny or just petite. Yet they eat a lot!


Arrived at our accommodation at Bago City, City hall.
Had our catered lunch and chillax for a bit before heading out for a trip to the market with the try members. (local county members) In order to familiarize the area.
 
Monopoly deal and bridge.


A shot of our room and beds. Will give post a blog tour of our lovely accommodation and its facilities.
So Kampongish!!! ^^


Place that we are staying.

On the way out to the market with the try members.

Their style of tuk tuk. ^^
Cost a few cents per head. Depends on the distance as well.
Unfortunately, didnt have much opportunities to ride.

Even though Singapore and Philippines have the same time, their sky gets darker and brighter first.
Like this photo, its only 5 plus yet it seems to be 6 in Singapore. By the time when 6pm reach, their sky is completely pitch dark.
 On the way to market, local people likes to burn their rubbish as insect repellent.
To me, the air pollution was quite bad. Probably I was not use to it. Was panting quite heavily, sneezing and tearing. =X But everything was fine after few days.


Dry and wet market.


Head back to clean up. Taking turns to bathe and while the rest htht or were fast asleep.
 
whilst ppl like us do ridiculous stunts. HAHA

Slept at 2 and woke up 7 in the next morning. #shagme.

Will update day 2 in Bago. ^^
Stay with me and check out hows their living condition and our projects!
