Acrophobic Post Christmas Experience













It took a month before i get the chance to visit and update my blog content and write down an article regarding the past holiday season. After an enormous task done by my team during the month-long celebration of Paskong Balangueno '09, we spend a two-day (2) relaxation at Subic Pampanga coincided to our Team Building activity. My team deserves a break and so I am. We stayed at Subic Homes for a one (1) night accommodation, enjoy the sumptuous meal offered by Meat plus Cafe for our dinner and enjoy the party until late hour with sizzling parlor games and raffles.


On the second day of our trip, we went to Subic TREE TOP Adventure! We've done our team building activity there as it was popularly known as Team Building Park. I have fear of heights known as acrophobia, but on that situation I need to overcome the fear for me not to spoil my team's aim of building the spirit of teamwork. I am their leader so it is expected for me to lead the group and be the first one to try the feeling of being drag along the deeply-forested jungle-area of Subic. Soaring at the high of 100 feet above the jungle floor on a cable suspension system but of course with the safety of harness wrapping around my waist. So hold me God!

The first step in overcoming a fear of heights is learning to control the physical symptoms. When face with a threatening situation, taking slow, deep breaths can help slow the heart rate and increase oxygen flow to muscles to keep from tensing up. If possible, a few minutes of meditation maybe effective in relieving some tension. relaxing music, aromatherapy, or even some stretching or light massage can help relieve the physical symptoms of acrophobia.

We prepare a long table at Cocolime Restaurant for a heavy lunch. However, because of too much excitement and anticipation on our tree top experience, I almost end-up with an empty plate of adobong manok w/ egg. MIS pleasurable trip end at ROYAL Subic DutyFree buying for some pasalubong for our love-ones. What a great post christmas celebration indeed. I'm so happy and hoping to do the same bonding experience with my team this 2010. To our generous Santa Claus, your elves would like to give you a yell! Hooo..Hooo..Hooo-ray!
