Let The Sea Set You Free

The sound of the waves is really haunting me. I really can't wait to hit the beach soon and while I'm busy drowning myself with series, books and whatnot...the arsty fartsy and diligent in me suddenly decided to come out, which rarely happens. I made this wallpaper yesterday and yes, there are 156,783,987,658 versions of that. I'll post my old works next time!

I made this two months ago -- FAITH is what we only need

The Boardwalk

"The cure for anything is salt water. Sweat, tears, or the ocean." - Isak Dinesen

The Boardwalk, a photo by revelinmockglory on Flickr.


This is a photo that I took while we were exploring the island one afternoon. I miss the ocean badly. I miss the sound of the waves crashing. I miss surfing. I miss wiping out. I miss paddling and waiting for the next wave. I am in dire need of vitamin sea.

It's been two months and counting since the last time I surfed and I can't believe that it's been that long. I've always make it to a point to surf at least once a month but ever since April, I find it to difficult to leave already. I told myself that I have to spend the long weekend in Baler to eat, drink and surf but then, my dad did not allow me because in the Chinese culture, it's the ghost month from August 19 to September 19 and we are advised to avoid traveling, shopping and whatnot. So even my Samar trip next weekend will be cancelled because of this. I decided to give it to Instik, Gregi's wife, a local surfer from Baler, so that she can be with his husband when they leave for Samar on Saturday. I can't believe I will miss this surfing trip...It's sad but it's better to be safe than sorry.

September 20: I'll make damn sure that I'll be in Baler!

#NoFilter The Movie


A 26-minute surf film that premiered in YouTube?! How awesome is that!!! According to Fox Head Inc., this movie is "Not your typical surf film, #NOFILTER The Movie willgive you an in-depth, raw look into the lives of some of surfing's elite. Spotlighting Fox pro-surfers Ian Walsh, Damien Hobgood and Bede Durbidge, #NOFILTER The Movie will take you far beyond the typical surfing footage with this honest 1,562 second film."

Watching this just made me crave for the ocean. It's been 4 months since my last surf...I can't wait to hit the ocean and surf! Two weeks 'til Samar!
