EK day. My first ever trip to EK.
Si Ana ang ganda talaga, ganito ung usapan naming…

Ana: Joan, sumabay ka na sa akin papuntang EK, magdadala ako ng car kasi uwi akong Cavite.

Joan: Okei, cge. Sabay tayong pumunta. [then realizes something] Teka, paano pauwi?

Ana: [naka-smile] Uwi na ako after. Sumabay ka na lang sa van.

Magaling! Cute talaga ni Ana ano.

I rode with Ana going to EK, she fetched me from my dorm. Dahil mga pasaway [late na!], we left before 11am so we can get there by lunch. As it turned out, we were late for the free lunch anyway. But we were reimbursed for our lunch so okei lang.

We wandered around, looking for air-conditioned places to escape the after lunch heat. We met our non-legal staff looking around as well. Everyone seems to be having fun... Finally, we met up with the “singles” group of lawyers – MZH, MDM, RRR, PMR, and Kinka [sana tama ung spelling]. We lined up for rides and tried not to throw up. =) I didn’t dare ride Anchor’s Away, Space Shuttle, and the super slow rides that will more likely draggingly drug me to sleep. In between rides, we ate at different joints and drank shakes, sodas, and water.

The really fun part was riding the Rio Grande TWICE. Once just wasn’t enough. MMB joined us and formed a team of 8, perfect for the Rio Grande ride. I wasn’t entirely wet on the first go and we decided to test the “seat” theory. We switched places and went for the second ride. I gave my bag to MZH so it wouldn’t get wet [just in case I’d be the one under the falls] but, nooooo, MZH and I were both drenched by the waterfalls [kamusta naman ang pagsalo sa lahat ng tubig sa falls?!]

It was an amazingly fun day. It made me want to go back and try the other rides. I wasn’t even car sick!

I ended up going back to Makati with the singles group [thank you to MZH, MDM and RRR for the ride back] and had more fun during the ride talking about pre-law and law school. I’m glad I decided to go.
