Trip to Mindanao: Day 4 - back to Cebu

Since the boat left at around 4am already, i did not make it to work that working day. Good thing i was able to sleep during the voyage so i managed to get to the office at around 7pm and get some important things done. Oh by the way, boarding was really horrifying. Lots of queues before you can finally get inside the ship. There's the inspection, getting of ticket (i forgot what's the ticket for), another inspection, dog sniffing, etc. Then another queue just to get our beddings! We were offered free breakfast because of the departure delay. Anyhow, the great experience we had were all that mattered.

So, that wraps up our trip to Mindanao... till our next journey to the South. :)

Trip to Mindanao: Day 3 - aftermath

The white water rafting was the climax of our trip to Mindanao. We were all drained up after the 3-day goofing. On May 7, Monday, was our scheduled trip back to Cebu. Original estimated time of departure was at 9:00pm, then moved to 12:00mn, then moved to 3:00am. We had to do something while waiting for the time. We all just wanna sleep but the boat is at 3:00am yet. So, here's us after the tiring but fun days...

one long weekend gone

Tsk, one long weekend has passed and i did nothing spectacular. I just wasted it by sleeping all day. Tsk bad bad. But you know you can't help it when sometimes you just feel tired that you can't get your butt to move. Well, at least i get to have long hours of sleep which i'm usually deprived of.

Trip to Mindanao: Day 3 - continuation

The white water rafting experience was totally super! I really can't believe i made it! I think i had called all the saints during the entire ride. If i may say, i was able to conquer my fears. But not that much since i did not jump from the raft and went swimming. It's just way too scary for me. :P


we made it! =)




we all deserved a warm yummy dinner :P

Trip to Mindanao: Day 3 in Cagayan de Oro

After two fun filled days in Camiguin, we then went to Cagayan de Oro the next day, April 7 for the highlight of our Mindanao trip - the white water rafting adventure. We took a bus to get to the port then get an hour or so barge ride bound to CDO. We arrived at the 'assembly area' at past 12:00 noon where we had our lunch. You could try some of their other adventures like canope walk and slide for life while waiting for your jeepney ride down to the starting point of the river for the white water rafting. We immediately took the ride bound to the starting point after lunch. We were divided into two groups. After a few minutes of general orientation and safety instructions, we were all set for the ride of our lives! There's no way i'd back out! Hek! Hek!





The rafting moments...


Fun fun fun... need i say more? More pics in the next entry...

gloomy weekend

In continuation with the previous post, yes i did not go to Malapascua. I'm not that disappointed because my friends who were supposed to go there didn't go too. The weather wasn't really good :( The rain just come off and on. It gets so disappointing... They went to Hadsan instead (just around Lapulapu) and i was supposed to follow them but just when i was about to leave the house, the heavy rain poured!

collecting silver

I am fan of collecting silver jewelries. They are fun to look at and not so intimidating in appearance. I'm sure, there are lots of other people out there who are into collecting silver also. This is a hobby that collectors find it worth investing. If you'd like to find and buy the rarest silver collection there is, check out the silver items from Monex. They have silver bullion and silver coins like the silver vienna philharmonics, silver american eagles, 90% silver U.S. coin bag, 40% silver U.S. coin bag and silver canadian maple leafs. A little trivia for you, a silver bullion is a durable, divisible, convenient, has a utility value and cannot be created by fiat metal. If you are not so sure about what to consider in buying silver. Call them now and a personal advisor will answer your queries. Do check out their interesting special offers too.

not so cooperative weather

I should be in Malapascua Island tomorrow, no later, it's already 1:30am. But i don't know... i'm not so sure. The weather isn't too nice to go on sea travels. I haven't packed my things and I have to be in the bus terminal at 5:00am. I think i'm not going! Waahhhh :(

what i least like in others' blogs

Alright! Alright! The design and content of each blog is according to the discretion of the owner. I know that and I respect that. However, me as a blog hoper and lurker have this thing on others' blog that i kind of don't like.

I really don't like it when the blog doesn't have a picture nor a written profile about the author. Especially if it's a personal blog which is always the case of the blogs i often visit or exchange links with. I mean you read their blogs because you want to connect to their views, experiences, thoughts and rants perhaps but i find it less interesting if i cannot relate who the blogger or owner is. For mysterious reasons, without profiles might be catchy. Others may opt that way for privacy. Either way, I really prefer to read and lurk blogs with profiles especially if i don't know the blogger personally or i just met him/her online for the first time. There are exceptions though - that is when the entries or post are really interesting that i wouldn't mind if i do not know who the author is.

Now you know why i never leave my layout (if i change layout) without my picture! LOL! :D
