vacation
dark blue seas and some corals
Monday, November 10th, 2008It was not planned at all. Someone just got carried away after looking at old pictures on her new iPod Touch. Before going into a state of melancholia, she tipped everyone (well, almost everyone) to hit some sands and coral. So, after church, I grabbed…
unfinished hits
Wednesday, October 29th, 2008Vacation is nearing its end and the plans in my to-do list didn’t ensue. They just remain, ermm, like plans! To think of it, I am provided with an almost 3-week holiday, a relatively longer sembreak compared to last school year’s (maybe to compensa…
the last sembreak, maybe
Saturday, October 11th, 2008“I thought it will always be that easy,rolling up the clothes, deciding the needs,and packing the rest lightly,but upon carrying the luggage one noon,in every step, the load became heavier and heavierthat the whole trip made me ache in pain.”Oct 11 / 0…

The Davaoeño in Cebu
Monday, June 30th, 2008Contrary to expectation, I had a very enjoyable and restful stay in Cebu — exactly what I’d come here for. The Waterfront Hotel in Cebu City provided a relaxing respite for a stressed-out worker bee who hadn’t had a vacation in more than a year!
The Waterfront in Lahug is one of the largest hotels in [...]

packed
Thursday, June 5th, 2008Summer, I thought, have just kicked in. But upon looking at the heap of clothes, books, gadgets, and other necessities on my bed, I have realized it’s the time again that I have to face another tasking school year. Yes, hopefully, this would be my l…
LP: Ihip ng Hangin
Friday, May 30th, 2008Kuha sa Sta Fe, Bantayan Island, Cebu 4 na taon ang nakalipas. Yong weather doon ay unpredictable. Dumating kami na maaliwalas ang panahon pero kinabukasan medyo bumabagyo na (kahit walang advisory na may bagyo). Walang barge na bumiyahe sa araw ding y…
Las Vegas
Saturday, May 17th, 2008Las Vegas is an unusual place, as it was originally totally desert. Everything that is now the city was created out of nothing. And of course, it is unique in the world, there just simply is no other place that equals it, or even gets near. Sherman Tra…
Honeymoon Plans: OVER!
Thursday, May 15th, 2008I was just so excited to plan my second trip, my hubby’s first, to Hong Kong this May. Unfortunately, it was canceled. It’s a little bit expensive, too due to the summer traffic and a lot of people…

Saturday, May 3rd, 2008The days of unlimited internet connection in a humble corner of my house may finally be over (goodbye daily blog updates!). In just a few hours, I will be going back to a place that both stoked up the coals of my imagination and extinguished the flame…
kicking in
Thursday, May 1st, 2008One month down and I have just recently enjoyed the whole purpose of a summer break. Thanks to some old acquaintances who suddenly appeared in my midst, repetitiveness has finally flown away from me. Hopping from one house to another is one enjoyable …
cutting the grass
Saturday, April 26th, 2008At long last, I did something today that changed the course of my vacation. I didn’t hit the beach nor go spelunking which I sorely miss; what I managed to do was something many wouldn’t dare do these days, especially in my age. As with other break…
stagnation
Monday, April 7th, 2008I’ve been staying in my hometown for almost three weeks and the whole sense of “vacation” hasn’t sink in to me yet. That slippery word, especially for a student like me, supposedly gives me the sense of trips, sands and beaches but what I am ha…
from eons ago
Sunday, March 16th, 2008Finally it’s here! Photos from last trip, I mean. There are still some photos that I have still yet to upload, however they’re in Bee’s laptop–in his office laptop. Anyway, enjoy.

Whispering Stupidity: a vacation in hell
Sunday, November 4th, 2007The long weekend brought us to the island of Negros. The Hubby was climbing the majestic Mt Kanloan with the Boylets and we were sent to the island of Sipaway just off San Carlos City (just 20 mins by pump boat from the port) to wait for his return fro…
Summer break!
Monday, June 25th, 2007I am in the Philippines right now getting my dose of bananacue, crispy green mangoes, santol, pinakbet, masi, lechon, pollution, noise, big malls, cheap shopping, white beaches, beautiful islands and warm crystal clear waters!
I am loving it 
See ya all later!

Friday, June 22nd, 2007Earlier this month, I tagged along with Mama on her business trip to Cebu. I took it as a chance to be reunited with my older brother and sister, who have been based in Cebu for several years now.But really, the real reason I was begging Mama to take m…
A Personal Art Festival
Wednesday, June 6th, 2007It is a fact that I had complained a lot of things regarding my two-month break away from campus activities. If I could inscribe the trite elementary essay with the theme “How I spend my Summer Vacation,” it will generally contain grievances and no…

End of the Plight
Monday, May 7th, 2007The concept struck me hard, and then what followed was a series of dumb inspirations which later on leaked on various outputs that filled my distressing summer stay here in humid Tagbilaran.If you still can’t get what I supposed to mean here, I think…
tandag! tandag! my land! my home! my paradise!
Wednesday, April 11th, 2007HISTORY
Long before Tandag became what it is today—the bustling capital town of Surigao del Sur–it was inhabited by the Manobos and the Mamanwas who lived along the river banks under the rulership of Suba, their chieftain. Suba was later on converted into Christianity by Father Juan de la Encarnacion, a Spanish missionary. After Legaspi’s final conquest of the Philippines particularly in
Summer is officially here!
Sunday, April 8th, 2007After a couple of false starts since after February, I think I can safely say it’s officially summer now. Today, Easter Sunday, was a lot hotter than usual, although it surprised me to see that we had a high of only 35°C this noon. I don’t know about you guys, but I had 4 showers [...]

If Elmer Could Find Them
Thursday, December 21st, 2006Stretching outside the house this morning, a silly thought came into my mind. I took this picture in an instant after I saw the prominent subject busily clucking somewhere. Just for the fun of it, I wonder if these two were Elmer’s long lost “shoul…
