From South to North: Laguna, Rizal, and Antipolo!

Another long overdue post, as usual.

So anyway, back in August (wow, this post is like 3 months late HAHA) Jem and I decided on heading out for a quick getaway from the city life. Since we didn't really have a large amount of money and only have limited time, we decided on heading back to Kaliraya Surf Kamp for some outdoor adventure!

Photography and Travel Enthusiasts, UNITE!

Nowadays, lakwatseras (or travelers, for a kinder term HAHA) are more in tuned in producing not just selfies, but what most people call as 'artsy' shots. Of course this is already achievable with whatever camera you got; may it be your smartphone, your trusted sports cam, or what have you. As long as you got the right place, the right angle.

But there's just this something that makes you want to produce an output that is more than just for posting on your IG feed. And this can be achieved if you have more freedom of control on your device. So you can remove or lessen that annoying glare of the sun on your artsy shot, so that the sharpness of the mountains on the distance will be prominent, so that the waves of the ocean will have that realistic texture that you oh-so-crave for... Yeah, yeah post processing is a thing, but what if you can produce that same result with just a raw shot, right?

Yes, SLRs and DSLRs has been on market for the past millennia (exaggeration, I know), but not everyone has the time to learn its technicalities and the money to purchase a good one. Good thing mirror-less cameras had made its niche on the market!

A New Beginning: 2017 Bucket List

Just like in the past, I've once again created my bucket list for this year. It might be quite a bit lit late since January is almost done, but hey, better late than never right?

So here ya go, fingers crossed that this will also be the posts you can look forward to :)

Blurred out some stuff here 'cause they're a bit personal (like life changing personal) hehe but I'll still talk about it should I be able to tick it off (hopefully).

Bucket List (For the Year 2015)

So I decided that I will make an official bucket list that I must, with all my power, accomplish by the end of this year. Below is the list of things I want to do (alone or with my friends or with my significant other).

*This is an on-going list, so I might add some more. Maybe a few days or weeks from now ;)

• Visit these 10 Modern Art Museums that can be found on this link.
• Climb Taal Volcano! (because I wasn't able to come with my friends #sad)
• Visit the beach *with optional bonfire.
• Have a picnic at some park somewhere.
• Hiking & Camping! *bonfire required.
• Get drunk (LOL, easy one)
• Eat at a high-end restaurant *completely dolled up (here, even for just one resto!)
• Outing with College Friends           ----- Kinda hard to do
• Outing with High school Friends    ----- Kinda hard to do
• Buy my Mom something she'd like (for once).
• Buy myself at least 3 pairs of Vans shoes :)
• Stay at a nice hotel.
• ROAD TRIP!
• Watch at all the cinemas listed here.
• Play some live music somewhere/anywhere.
• Complete a lazy day (watch movies, eat pizza, drink beer).

PS
