Dec. 8
Aurora Himiko of Klover Studios got hitched.
Final Verdict: I should just stick to drawing and leave the photographing shtick to the ACTUAL professionals!

This is the imparting valuable knowledge to impressionable young minds section of this entry.
And by impressionable young minds, I meant the Gamers! Retro gamers to be exact.
Here we'd learn how to catch a MEW on Pokemon Blue Version.
Yes, the elusive critter of the 90's, Mr. 151 himself!
So put on your khaki shorts and let's catch that MOFO!
There's no use pushing that truck because that sprite was originally programmed to be nothing more than an ornate floor tile.
So good job with the false rumor, Internet!
Fast forward to the present, this is the correct and right way to catch a Mew.
And as for this guide, we're going old school and confirming the trick via an actual Gameboy.
This trick is also referred to as the Mew Glitch.
And you catch one as early as the second location of the game which is of course, Cerulean City.
reset our previous game since the glitch is location specific and would probably not work if some of the
trainers had been beaten.
1.Since FLY wouldn't be available yet. You'd need to catch an ABRA
On Route 25, pass the Nugget Bridge and north of Cerulean City.
Along this patch of grass right here:
with for this would be crucial for the code to work. But it's quite alright to
battle everyone on Nugget Bridge and the first three trainers on Route 25.
2. This is the part where we activate the glitch. It is important to save often at this point in time as to prevent wasted steps or unsuccessful attempts.
You'd need to be on THIS gambler's line of sight.
As you leave the gambler's exclamation is still there and the music is still that of when you were challenged.
The game still think that you're still in battle mode against the gambler hence triggering the glitch.
3. Battle this fourth kid on Route 25.
He'd have one Lvl. 17 Slowpoke on his team and you'd have to beat the snot out of that Youngster.
After which you'd have once again teleport out of the said location.
There is also that trick to catch a Mew at Lvl. 1 (instant level 100 Exp points) via using Growl at Slowpoke 6 times.
Thus having it's attributes down to the desired value.
We haven't exactly tried this out hence we could not confirm/deny this.
4. This is where the fun begins. Walk up to the Route 24 this one last time.
This is not a bad thing...
And as you exit.
Yep you've guessed it, MEW!
Master balls are unnecessary as I caught mine with an ordinary Poke Ball.
And that's that, 151 at the palm of your hands.
Closure for you, for me and everyone else that lived thru that era.
POKEY-MONNNNN!
Random toys from the toy chest:
And oh,will you look at that...it's MY OLD DECK!
Our Dec. 27-28 were a bit of a doozy!
Attending two weddings, waiting for our designated bus and then sleeping on the said bus.
Yes, this is indeed....the good life!

My younger sister's getting married, YAY!
Overly zealous photobomber
To the far north it is! Forthwith!
This is madness, this is not a bus,
THIS
IS
This is the only convenient way to get to Laoag.
There is another Partas station elsewhere but it tends to be too far from our general location hence...NO!
Located conveniently at Aurora Blvd - Cubao.
It was an eleven hour trip.
Hence we had to make the most out of it by either sleeping or snapping photos at random.
Toll boths, a whole lot of them.
We arrived at Laoag around 9am.
Another hour would be spent on mini-buses to Burgos.
Hence we shall play a game.
A game called:
Alam mong nasa probinsiya ka kapag (you know you're in a province if):
1. Franks N' Burgers over Burger Machine or Angel's Burger.
Enough fooling around, this is where I was supposed to be:
Complete with steep inclined slopes,
You can bet your ass we are!
We were then given an hour to rest, freshen up or slip into something more comfortable.
Because sweaty pits ain't no laughing matter.
Get it???
No?
Oh, poop!
Dem rippling water reminds us of that famous scene from Jurassic Park.And on our way back,
Sino nga ba si Paul Quiano?
Paul Quiano....y'know!
From THE MATRIX!
Here's the REAL Paul Quiano's Plaque/ Sign.

Curved paths,
Well, atleast that got your attention!
And hah, we made it!
Join us as we wave goodbye to the gigantic windmills,
And just like that, the sort of vacation was all over.
We touched down on manila around 9-ish and as we arrived home around 10.
With stories to tell and pics to share.
And of course..FOOD to devour!
Hahaha, sorry!
Thus completes our 3 part and a rather in-depth review of how our 2014 went
Looking forward to the new year and if you were wondering, this was how we spent ours:
Paul Rudd plays an awesome Lennon.
And the animation parts were even trippier than the real Yellow Submarine.
