GORA NA SA BORA!

Let me intellectually explain the title.  
"Gora" is the nauusong gay word for "Go!" while "Bora" is well, para lang mag-rhyme. Haha.
This is the magnificent shores of Gumasa, Saranggani Province.
 I may not be qualified to say this - I've never been to Boracay  - but it can seriously give Boracay a run for its money. Some people are actually dubbing Gumasa as the "next Boracay" or if not, "Boracay of the South".  

Since this paradise is only an hour and thirty minutes away from General Santos City, me and my friends packed our things and went. Kaya yun, "Gora na sa Bora!" :)

The view while going to the place was already amazing. 
That's why we stopped in the middle of the road for a photo op! 
Oo, kitang-kitang ang amazing view. Haha. 
But if you move the camera farther left (imagine nalang), the sea and mountains are overlooking. 

 
We stayed at White Haven Beach Resort.
My first time at Gumasa was last 2008 with cousins. It was love at first step at the fine sand. Haha.
 Back then, it wasn't really that developed. But now, a lot of amenities and activities are offered by various resorts.

Funny thing lang that our cottage was aptly named "PAGODA".
If you translate that in gay lingo it means  "pagod" or "tired". Haha. 
LOVE! 
(In fairness, nakakangawit maging letter E. Chos!)
We played SHOT PONG! First time ko. Hihi.
With my fellow "blogger", my ish, Kristine.
 When we were taking photos, our friends kept teasing us kasi daw  for our "blogs".
BLAGS. Haha!
My plan was to spread my scarf in the sand and read Eat, Pray, Love while the sun is burning my skin. But there's just so  many things to do especially if you're with friends. So, hanggang picture nalang. Haha.

We stayed overnight and we even witnessed (from afar) a beach wedding. They had cute light lanterns flying during that night and a sky full of stars. Romantic. It was such a nice breather because most of us just had our internship done.


I realized that one of my greatest pleasures in life is floating at the calm sea while staring at the serene sky and nothing particular in mind.  :)

What's yours?
