Blog it out loud...

We woke up at 7AM. After a hot shower, we went to a nearby McDonalds for breakfast.

Luckily, there is and I immediately asked my friends if they would tag along this semester break.  Five of them immediately agreed. This trip was almost rescheduled because additional people would like to come but the first five insisted that we book it right a way on a fear that it would turn to a "constantly-rescheduled-eventually-cancelled" plan. Flight cost: Php 190 17.36  with all the taxes and other charges. PhP 19017.36/6 = PhP 3,169.56 per person Manila-Davao-Manila or  ...
