God Bless You

I had nothing to say but smile - especially that I was just getting off another trike, on the way to a 4PM mass. Yes, to the right, inside that fence, is a church.

At least we understand the message, right?!

Don't let me analyze and explain that any further. Iiyak lang kayo (again).

Let's be happy now. It's almost 2 years after Yolanda / Haiyan.

Negros Oriental Tour, Cebu to Bayawan By Bus

Image
My Negros Oriental Tour: Bus Ride from Cebu City to Bayawan City Cebu to Dumaguete Reaching the south bus terminal at 6:35AM, I was late for the direct Cebu-Dumaguete-Bayawan buses as they now leave 5AM and 6AM respectively instead of 6AM and 7AM. So, I took an aircon bus on its way to Dumaguete. But I got off at Liloan’s Puerto Del Sur passenger terminal (in Santander) so I could cross via fastcraft to Sibulan and make my way by multicab or trike to the Ceres terminal in Dumaguete. You might ask why did I not just take the bus all the way to Dumaguete’s Ceres Terminal and connect to another bus from there going Bayawan. Well, ah, from experience and some asking around, it is faster if you cross on your own via the fastcrafts to Sibulan from Liloan than keep riding the Ceres all the way to Bato that crosses to the Tampi port in Amlan before proceeding with the ride to Dumaguete passing by Sibulan. If you did not quite get that, just try ‘google maps’ or ‘wikimapia’ to look for those pl...

Carigara Delicacies as Pasalubong

Image
This was still on my joyride from Calubian to Tacloban, we naturally had to pass by Carigara. This time we "stopped-to-shop" oh ha?! My driver promised his three lovely daughters that he would bring home some pasalubong from Carigara, thus the 'shopping'. He went (I followed) to only this roadside store.., Well, he's been a driver for so long a time, I cannot contest his knowledge on where to buy the best of these pasalubongs! There are many stores on this highway strip, and I think they sell the same things! As the driver picked what he had to pick (and haggled with the vendors for more] I clicked hehe! Here's the honest deal about me and these sweets from Carigara - or other sweets from anywhere for that matter: I am not really too keen on any of them, such that I'd crave for, or plan to specifically seek them out. BUT - when I get started with ANY of them, there's no telling when I will/can stop. IF at all! I do not even know or care to know wha...

Curious About "Hill 120"

Image
Beautiful day. Beautiful view of the pacific as I approached Dulag from Tolosa. Before the town proper, I saw that brown marker telling me I was near (300 meters)... Hey you! Yes you! Do you even know what "Hill 120" is? What the "Hill" is it anyway?! For many non-Warays, this is unheard of, right? Yes, and this time, may I shamefully claim I am a non-Waray. Eh kesa naman I shamelessly claim that I am Waray tapos di ko man lang alam iyang Hill 120 na yan! Hahaha, yeah, I do not even remember if this thing was mentioned by Renato Constantino in our PHI textbook way back in college hehehe! But if it is any consolation, I have done my informal verbal research before visiting this place - I asked too many Waray-warays who are even residents of this region up till now, and - many of them do not really know, or have not even heard of Hill 120. Patas tayo! Anyway, I became aware of Hill 120 because of the many number of times I passed by it, in the course of perfor...
