Life Recently, How Lechon Brigthtened Up My Life, (Yes, Lechon😂)

 

Hello, it’s me, the one who chases potatoes, CHASING POTATOES, haha! I guess I have to reintroduce myself because I was gone for more than six months. I mean I’ve been out of this blogosphere world because of so many tragic happenings around the globe since the beginning of the year 2020. Added to this sad turn of events was my being hospitalized for an operation in the first month of this year, which I will tackle soon on the blog (maybe or maybe not, haha). This pandemic that has disturbed the whole world has paralyzed my creativity, putting contents into a halt. Fear and anxiety dominate my being; thoughts and ideas float in the empty spaces in my mind. (But I’m still thankful to God for sparing my loved ones and me from this horrible virus. Please COVID-19, be gone. (sigh)

LAKE BENSIS : WE MADE THE WRONG TURN

LAKE BENSIS : WE MADE THE WRONG TURN

 

Hello, I’m back in this virtual world and sharing another episode of Chasing Potatoes’ adventures. This time, my friends and I went camping in Toledo specifically along Lake Bensis. Ever since this Lake Bensis circulated in social media due to some controversies, I got interested in visiting this Lake haha. The more they want to hide it, the more people (like me) desire to visit it, charot! Continue reading “LAKE BENSIS : WE MADE THE WRONG TURN”

Beach Montemar : Bantayan  Bound Again and Sharing Some of my Fave Photos and Hated As Well

Beach Montemar : Bantayan Bound Again and Sharing Some of my Fave Photos and Hated As Well

 

I always dream of going places but I as I get older my excitement diminishes. Planning about trips becomes more of a burden which hinders me from chasing those dreams. I tend to overthink a lot about the inevitable. Just like what I thought while looking at this photo I snapped while journeying through the seas to Bantayan Island. It was almost evening as the sun started to go down. The sunset gave me a beautiful sight but it also gave me the realization that a day has almost ended and a new day will be coming forth, full of unknowns and uncertainties. Another day for our cells to degenerate, we get older, our parents get older, the earth is not even getting better — a realization that nothing lasts forever that change is a constant matter. Ugh. I am just such an anxious and fearful being — a pessimistic idiot! Sigh.

HOW I EDIT MY PHOTO

This is How I Edit My Photos For The Gram

 

Sometimes I want to feel fancy, just like most girls. If I set aside my lazy ass and I am in the mood, I like to put make-up on my face, wear cute outfits and take photos of myself. I like to use my time as well by editing those snaps. I think it’s not about being vain but because I want my photos to reflect my creativity and artistry.

Sometimes raw photos are boring and problematic but added with filters and enhancements they channel different emotions and tones.Right? However, I don’t overdo my photos. I want them to look natural, if possible. So, here in my blog I’m showing you how I edit my photos to make them appear as natural as possible.

PLACES IN MASBATE WE VISITED IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS

PLACES IN MASBATE WE VISITED IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS

We almost missed our ride in going to Masbate after a very heavy traffic we experienced in Danao. We arrived at the port almost 12:00 midnight which was also the time of the boat’s departure. That was literally chasing time. Haha!🤣Anyway we cruised on Masbate seas on a very fine weather that somehow gave us a peaceful journey and in the morning we were greeted by a stunning sunrise.

BEST BUDGET BACKPACKING TENT: MONGAR ULTRALIGHT 2 PERSON TENT

My unboxing was dated April 20, 2019 and I forgot to show close to the camera all the things inside the package. I was so excited to open it that I forgot all about showing them to you, guys. I hope you won’t get confused to see another clip of all the parts of my tent some of which are crumpled for having been used twice. Therefore, I got the chance to share also in this video some reviews about the tent.

Solo Traveling in Calbayog : Two Splendid Waterfalls To Chase in Calbayog

 Two Splendid Waterfalls To Chase in Calbayog

I tried solo traveling once because I wanted to experience freedom of taking risks and of dealing with personally unknown ventures to find out if it is really liberatingly beautiful. I found the answer when I visited Calbayog.

It was not all fun; there were times when I got scared while jaunting but at the end of the day I set aside the negativities encountered along the way and thought of the valuable lessons learned in this experience. That is why Calbayog already has carved an etch in my heart even though I was there two years ago. But it is only now that I felt the desire to write this blog. I have shaken off the lethargy in my being and have stopped my addiction to Mobile Legend, haha 😂. I have to stop or else that would be the death of me, ugh!

This adventure happened on my first solo travel to Calbayog. I visited some of the city’s historic sites which were well-preserved and maintained, explored two majestic waterfalls and experienced the exhilarating and fulfilling zipline adventure which I’m going to tackle here in this blog. Unfortunately my trip went wrong for I misjudged my trike driver. If you’re curious about my solo Calbayog travel, here’s my previous article.
