Majayjay Falls & the Niknik Bites

Hello! How are you guys? I've been gone for so long.. Been a little busy being lazy for the past few weeks. I was not also in the mood to blog because of the gloomy weather.. Ohhh shocks, do you also hate it when it rains? I do... :)

enjoy lang guys!

So we went to Majayjay Falls last June 7, 2010, together with some peeps from our subdivision. The place is located at Barangay Gagalot, Majayjay, Laguna. The place was pretty nice (though  not that amazing as compared from the other falls I've seen before)..The water that flows from Mt. Banahaw through the mountain's lush is very clear and of course very cold.. We were told by the caretaker that the place is normally crowded during weekends.

freezing cold :)

tempted to swim (?)....WATCH OUT!

Happy Me and my younger brother before I was bitten by the "niknik"

-The Suffering-

I SHOULD HAVE NOT FORGOTTEN  that there are many insects abound in this kind of place... I should have been a little careful and should have brought my insect repellant lotion..

Guess what? I was bitten by these insects known as "niknik". While I was swimming, I didn't notice any insect bites. But after swimming, my legs started to itch (the itchiness was undescribable). When we reached home, I noticed there were a lot of bites and it was getting redder and bumpier. Very itchy rashes that I could not help but scratch it... The rashes spread all over my legs. I believe it was the cause of  the scratching.. I suffered from this  for more than two weeks. But then, the rashes bruised and of course it left some ugly marks.. I was worried and almost cried.. But my mom told me they will be gone in a few more months...

I'm still treating the marks now with WII-Scarslick, that costs me around 3K... In the commercial, they are claiming that the scars would be removed in two weeks time.. Hahaha.. NOT TRUE!! I've been using it for a month now... But yes, it is lightening the marks..

TAKE CARE OF YOUR SKIN LADIES.... and BE CAREFUL...
