Since late last year, I have been running up this small list of to-do things in my mind. With my revived inspiration for trying out new things in life (my boss simply calls it quarter-life crisis and observed that I was just realizing that I am getting older...) and seemingly good moolah karma opening my year, I am suddenly feeling a spurt of determination to finally tick out those things on my to-do list one by one, slowly but surely, year after year. I am now motivated to save up for these things...
- Whale encounter at Ocean Adventure in Subic Bay. (This is the first one I will soon accomplish-- this coming Holy Week!)
- Sky-diving (Somebody said it costs PHP10,000 per jump. Geez. I don't think I'm ready to let go of THAT MUCH moolah in just one thrill jump. Maybe next time when I have more disposable income ;-) )
- Intro dive at Anilao, Batangas (Abbie sez it's really a great experience! I don't think I'd want to go into a full-blast scuba diving though coz I'm fully aware that it's a pricey hobby!)
- Hot air balloon ride (saw the nice colorful balloons in a recent festival in Clark, I think...)
- Bungee-jumping
- Wall-climbing (not in front of the madlang people shopping in Alabang Town Center, puhleeez!)
- Parasailing (there's one in Plantation Bay Cebu the last time I was there but it was too expensive for me at that time)
- Paragliding
- Glass-bottom boat ride
- Swim with dolphins/whales (My officemate sez there's something like this in Bicol ata or Bohol...)
- Go to Bohol, see the beach and get to touch a tarsier.
- Go to Avilon Zoo in Rizal and take lotsa pictures of the animals :)
- Go to Boracay (the last time I was here was waaay back in the 1990's when it was not yet fully-developed)
- Go to Puerto Galera (Geez. I haven't been there. Ever.)
- Go to Australia and do the Sydney Harbor bridge climb. (Cheapest rate is AUD160!)
- Go to Palawan
- Go backpacking in Europe... First stop: Paris, France. (yeah. I wish! I'd have to be filthy rich but hey, it's free to dream!).
