As promised, here is Part II of our Cambodia Trip. On these days we treated ourselves to a delicious dinner followed by drinks at The Raffles Hotel in Siem Reap (we showered eh, para di naman sayang ang effort Haha joke!), whole day tour of Angkor Wat and many more adventures along the way.
I know how LONGGGGGGG overdue this post is, but I only found my memory card reader now and a working laptop to blog on (thanks Mom!)
I thought I'd share with you guys some pictures from my 2013 Cambodia trip with my sister Trina and our Mom. Trina and I planned this trip early 2012 and we couldn't wait until we could finally go. I've heard so many beautiful things about Cambodia, from the structures of the temples, to the friendly people and the amazing cultural experience it had to offer. And I have to say, it did not disappoint.
We visited so many temples in our 4 day stay and we were dead tired by the end of every single day. The experience was amazing. I'm not going to lie- after a while all the temples looked alike but just to be there and walk around the area and through the halls was breath taking. I was so in awe of how intricate all the details were and how many hours of labor were spent just creating these masterpieces.
It's sad though that through the years and millions upon millions of tourist visits, the temples are slowly falling apart. Although we've been told during our tour that measures are being taken in restoring the temples, I sincerely hope it can be done whilst still keeping the authenticity of the structures.
Anyhoo, prepare yourselves for a PICTURE HEAVY (you've been warned!) of just some of the temples we visited. I will save Angkor Wat for another entry very soon.
Oh and excuse our outfits and how we look- we decided to dress for comfort since we knew we would be walking (and sweating) a lot! All these pictures were taken with my Nikon D40 SLR and none were photoshopped. That's just how BEAUTIFUL Cambodia was.
Hello to my 8 blog readers!!! Did ya all miss me? (feeling? Haha)
I think I must explain why I haven't been able to blog in so long before I start this entry.
1. My computer has been busted (but it's working now, yay!)
2. A lot of crazy things have been happening in my life
3. I went through a self crisis and I didn't know how to get out of my funk
So now that I'm actually writing again (it feels sooooo good to be typing on a keyboard again... Am I weird?) I decided to explore everything on my laptop and see what's been chilling on the "blog side" of things.ANO DAW.
I can't wait to start writing about everything I've been feeling lately and experiencing. I promise you all (8 lang naman kayo, so feel ko kaya ko ikeep yung promise Haha jokes.) that I'll be sharing A LOT of it. May drama (rejection, self-doubt, financial woes, identity crisis-ish) and may good times rin (travels, dates, clothes, makeup, hobbies, etc etc etc) and I know that through this blog, I can again start to feel like my old self. I've missed this and I've missed having an outlet for my Random Ramblings :)
SO ANYWAYYYYYY long introduction aside, I stumbled upon this entry I wrote and saved on my laptop. I reread it and realized, wow, this totally still applies to me now *high five past Karla who wrote this way back* so I thought I would share it with you all. Hope you enjoy this little "I'm back" piece :)
