My Weekend Adventures

    My weekend is always filled with a new surprise or unexpected call from my best friends, I have the best memories these times as well as create inseparable bonds with them. In my weekends I would be up to my usual routine of waking up, going to gym then school work but in the middle of the day get a text from one of them. The text reads out, "Plans for today?" when I read it I know we are gonna a great time already.

    From these experiences I have came up with the conclusion that unexpected plans create the most memorable moments. No matter  the fact of how tired I am, I'm still enjoying and just going where ever.

    Our adventures go from random food trips, road trips, staying at my place and just opening up with each other and just talking, playing video games the whole day or even the most random things. As the saying goes, "Whatever floats your boat" in our case the boat is our fun and whats keeps it floating are the adventures we go off to. Though our adventures don't go always unplanned, but there are times where there is a surprise, an occasion or just a set date. Times such as where we are go off a week to Camsur Watersport Complex in Bicol, or having dinner after school. While I don't only travel to different places, I go to a different world occasionally. When I mean by this a world of video games though it may sound childish but it feels the same as all my other adventures. Though we aren't physically together, we are mentally there through a call and talking through the midnight oil. The feeling of enjoyment, forgetting all your worries, and having the company of your best friends. I can say without a doubt those are one of the things I always look forward to.

    Moments like these create bonds with people that you wouldn't usually have. There are times where you would support your friends no matter their choice or problem nor how big or small. Recently I had one of my best friends finally able to go after his dream. Last March 5, 2016 he competed for a drift competition. Though I wasn't able to support him by my presence since it was my birthday my prayers and thoughts were with him the whole time.

    These adventures aren't merely just with friends anymore, they have become a part of life, they have become family to me. Though I have many more years to enjoy and experience I hope for it to be with them. I urge you to have your own little adventures whether it may be with yourself or with your friends. Life is short and you should make the most out of it.
