Ecstatic Jinx in Jubilance

                        Provocation plastered on my jubilant face when the messaged arrived on me. My grateful mother sat on my soft single-size bed waiting for my answer to her stoop question. “Yes” I energetically said that the whole neighborhood can hear my scream. Those alluring question tested my summer and that offer will be an escapade at the hidden paradise of the north, where beaches are crystalizing, mountains are dominating, foods are mouth-watering and where people are fond of restoring humanity. It is the land of Quezon Province.

                        A 5-hour trip in the middle of an obscured night is not a joke. My back ached in pain when my feeling almost puked while conquering the zig-zag pattern road. Regardless of unpleasant trip inside the van, my eyes widened on the aesthetic surroundings when the sun shined brightly. First on my bucket list is to swim on a beach with my family. We arrived excitedly in the famous beach at Real, Quezon Province.

                        As I stepped on the crystal-like white sand of the beach, the ambiance gave me a warm welcome. The scorching sun smiled at me as its rays touched my tan skin under my comfortable bathing suit. The trees playfully swayed their branched in the rhythm of the cold breeze. The birds in colorful feathers, chirped harmonically. We sat down on the cozy shade of tall coconut tree while waiting on the mouth-watering, freshly caught salmon by hardworking fishermen in their paraphernalia. The fish is roasted in the blazing charcoal and after that, it is partnered with stir vegetable in a sweet and sour sauce. I saw bunch of people enjoying the paradise. Some were building castles, busy taking snapshots, and most were busy swimming while ready in the approaching tall wave that will swallow them. The crystal-like water persuaded me to swim in liberty. I felt happiness when the cold water touched my tan skin placed the under then. As I roam my eyes, my family were enjoying the escapade especially my little sister that was busy playing on the sand with sparkling eyes plastered on her emotion, and that’s how I felt the ecstatic jinx in jubilance.
