Plastic Virgins Tournament - January 30, 2010

Me and my barkadas joined our first ever ultimate tournament - the Plastic Virgins. This tournament is open for all ultimate players with a "beginner" level and hasn't joined any PUA sanctioned tournaments yet. The participants were divided into 2 groups - the dark team and the light team. Kat, Quino and I were in the dark team while Carissa, Nikki and Faye were in the light team.

The teams played a best of three format with each game is race to 11 points. The dark team won the first game (11-8) and the light team took the second game (10-8 -- under time limit of 1 hour). The deciding game became very exciting as the light team took an early lead (11-6) but the dark team made a comeback levelling the game at 11-all. The light team changed to another gear as they snatched the last 2 points of the game.

All in all, the tournament went smooth and very exciting. Everyone went home happy and satisfied with their performance. "WE ARE VIRGINS NO MORE!!!"

2010 New Year's Day Reunion in Batangas

Also a tradition is spending the first day of every year with my relatives in Tanauan, Batangas. Though we are not really from Batangas (my grandparents are from Santol, La Union), we go to Tanauan for a day of fun, bonding and chatting with my Titos and Titas.

This year, we played our favorite yearly game Pinoy Henyo then my little cousins rendered a dance number inspired by the JabbaWockeeZ.
