MY MOST PRECIOUS TRAVEL TO ILOILO CITY

had anyone here, been to ILOILO?
i've been..
 i couldn't tell much of it's History
all i know is that i spent some precious moment
here even while at  a hectic work and with an amidst inclement weather
as the rain never stops to pour especially at night.(it must be Quiel)

my comrades were kind enough in accomodating me

one of those footmarks i had at ILOILO

and make an awesome tour within the City (that is of course during my free time)

not much to say, but thanks guys
for the most wonderful stay in your place...

promise me when i come back you bring me to
bora, together with my scuba gear....

stepping up the shooting range

my strong hand is right, so what's yours?
and for the expert shooters, did i stood the proper stance?
or at least my weak hand is in it's proper place. 


ahhh, that's cool, isn't it? i'm sure you  also want to try a bit of it? so, who would like to join me in my next step at the shooting range?  let's try the long one, or shotgun maybe. but before we do that, we need to learn first GUN SAFETY RULES.


if you think that i am preparing for something big in here, you got it wrong..ha ha, i ain't goin' into war or competition maybe,  stepping up at the shooting range with 50 rounds of stoeger were just one of the many activities that needs to be done to get close with the things you like to do most. 
and with this, i would like to give big thanks to jing, junie and beng for the patience and for the cool company.


so here's the shameful part of the story, the range officers kept shouting like: "junie - sight getting lower",  "beng - missed, you're out in the center (is he mad?)" hmmp.!
and out of the 50 rounds i only fired at least 25 of it missing in air the 15 bullets, except when i used the strong hand stance, recalling all the proper breathing and trigger pointing, sighting taught by my coaches voila! one time big time hitting the head. stress relief!

i ain't steady, just tryin'

zoom in ...

with that stance, trembling hand and eyes closed, i hit the head part of the target paper - out of pure luck... LOL

finally going home

six days of stay in gensan is such a short period of time to tour around and sight see, much more that my prime reason of goin' is to work and  though most of the time i was confined at tambler i still able to enjoy myself and more than glad that i come and see.


some other beautiful spot i haven't visit here were the reason that i need to come back, some other time.

rain rain go away, fallenrainnes is flying away...

..finally home, getting ready for the next destination, somewhere in Visayas, this time....




note:


there's  more gensan untold story, i'll share it once i make the luxury of time to write...


keep smilin",... 

reunion with my fave fruit MARANG only in gensan

MARANG (Artocarpus odoratissimus) is  also called johey oak, green pedalai, madang, tarap, or breadfruit cousin. it is an exotic tropical  fruit that resembles like that of the jackfruit and can only be found in southeast asia.  


you don't have an idea how i missed "marang" it's like a decade now since i haven't tasted one. so on my fifth day in gensan, i got the chance going to the city, and there, i make sure that i picked one and satiate if not my empty stomach then just my watering big mouth.. LOL

for only five pesos

giggling for more!!

no matter how i crave for the fruit i manage to share the other piece to"didith," my close friend, colleague, batchmate, classmate and a neighbor at the province of Cagayan.  she was the one who guided and toured me in gensan for two-hour of sneaking at work.

wait a minute, she got the big one... huh!

just to share her part of the story... "didith" is also a stranger in this place wayback 2009 but when career development calls her, she accepted the offer to work here and maybe one of the reason why she's here is to unite me and marang one day, and it happened (my big thanks)..


she promised me to send  more products from here ...LOL


..will tell more funny stories,soon...

welcome general santos city

GENERAL SANTOS CITY the boxing capital and city of champions has been in my list of places to go before travelling abroad, is now conquered.



i've been excited to land at the city of gensan since this is my first time here, excited as always because i know my experience here would be more than extraordinary. i'm thankful for the opportunity for it never occurred to me, that i'll reach gensan this year with a free travel expense. it's not bad to work hard though, aside from the experienced and exposure i gained i was able to meet different kind of people, cultures, events and places, which happened only to few, ordinary and lucky being.



i was staring at the big and heavy things which would transport me to my destination





excited, are you..?

and after the pilot announced that we are ready to touch down i immediately took a snapshot with the first thing that comes to my sight @gensan

endless roadtrip

i've got body pain post travel, so it's nice to get a nap
as soon as you arrived...

i've been busy lately due to work and travel toxicity, i've got less time to update my blogs and stories and due to changes of job location i've been traveling every weekend from manila to northern luzon and vice versa, and despite the long hours of travel i've been comfortable riding in a bus to convey me to my destination. travel stress is unavoidable, but it doesn't matter  for i always set time to debrief myself from a stressful situation such as this, i'm thinking one after next week end.

yes, that would be after next week, because this weekend i am scheduled to go to GENERAL SANTOS CITY for a weeklong work. how about that?

well, i'm a bit excited cause that would be my very first step to manny pacquiao's native land. :) 

see you there....
