A Night at Star City

By Jeanbeltran // , , , , // No Comments

I was still a little girl of six or seven when I last entered a carnival and rode the Ferris wheel. I can barely remember what happened to me at that time when I was in it but I think I threw up which caused me to become afraid of those kinds of rides. I had never ever ridden any other rides until we visited Star City in Manila. The plan was to go to Enchanted Kingdom which was way popular than Star City. But because of the location we opted to just go to Star City instead.

All of us were doubtful to go since my cousin who is working in Manila mentioned that only those who are wearing shoes can go inside, good thing it wasn't the case. We were staying in one of our relatives in Marikina so it took us almost an hour to reach the place. Our stomachs were all hungry so we decided to just pay the entrance fee first then eat. There were dining area and some fast food restaurants inside so food were not a problem. We dined at Chowking and so we started with our rides at almost seven evening.

My Manila Trip

By Jeanbeltran // , , // 2 Comments

It was never my wish to go visit Manila neither to stay there for good. The city has a vague picture to me and that whenever someone talks about it, I would always imagine the busy streets, polluted and noisy too. As previously mentioned, I never wished to visit Manila city, the capital city of our dear Philippine country. But opportunity kicks in once in a blue moon, my first degree cousin, Jesil was about to be married in Laguna, specifically in Calauan and I couldn't resist but go because our family are supportive and we want to witness their wedding day. Aside from that I was thinking this is an opportunity I can't refuse, it’s a time for me to see for myself how Manily looks like. And though some of my assumptions are wrong; most of my imaginative scenes are true.

This was my first air travel too so I was sort of excited, after 24 years of waiting I have now experienced three travelling means, land, sea and air. It took me so long to get this three done but it’s better late than never!
