Holy Week at San Fabian Beach
We spent the Maundy Thursday up to Black Saturday at San Fabian Beach in Pangasinan. I was with wifey, my mother, my sister, my son, my nephews and nieces.
On our way to San Fabian, we saw countless of penitents, who either carrying crosses or whipping their backs until they became gory. These are some of the Catholic Filipino traditions that are being done during holy weeks. Some go to the point of being nailed on the cross.
At Gerona, Tarlac, my niece Lizeth treated us for lunch at Isdaan Restaurant. She just celebrated her birthday a few days back (March 30), and we teased her mother, my sister Elvie, for a blow-out.
To avoid the perennial traffic along Urdaneta City, we took the longer way – the Magilas Trail detour. We also stopped over at the Manaoag Church before proceeding to the beach.
At the beach, we met with our relatives from Quezon, Isabela. Yes, they drove all the way from Isabela. It’s another reunion and bonding for our family. We're happy to see each other again. Unfortunately, the clan wasn't complete. My eldest sister Evelyn and her hubby are in the US of A, my youngest sister Bebeng and her family are in Sydney, my daughter Jaja had work, my nephews Ronel and Jing and their families were left in Isabela, and my nephew Raymond is in Brunei.
And, the three days and two nights were spent eating, drinking, singing, gambling and swimming.
Everybody enjoyed and had fun.

My sleepy trip to Cebu
Yesterday, I attended a seminar in Cebu. It wasn't actually in Cebu City but in Lapulapu City, Mactan Island.
My flight was at 7:00 AM. Normally, I am at the airport at least 2 hours before departure time. But, this time, I arrived at the airport 45 minutes before the departure time. I overslept due to lack of sleep the night before. We came home from our Bagac, Bataan outing at close to midnight. As soon as I buckled up, I slept; and, I almost didn’t feel the touch down in Cebu.
From Cebu airport, I proceeded straight to the seminar venue, which is just some blocks away. It’s a whole day affair. I was very sleepy most of time; hence, I didn’t absorb everything that had been discussed. I’ve gone to and fro the coffee station for a countless times. I thought I’d drunk about a dozen cups of brewed coffee to keep me awake. I asked my companion to tap me whenever he saw me asleep.
After the seminar, my companion and I went to the hotel, which is just a stone throw away. We ate our dinner, drank a few rounds of beer and gone to bed early. My eyes were already closing.
In the morning, I woke up at about 7:00 AM and felt refreshed. After eating our breakfast, I packed my things and proceeded to the airport for my flight back to Manila.

Outing to Sun Moon Beach Resort
The weather is weird. It's already summer; but, it's still raining! Rain or shine, it's summer all right!
About almost a month ago, we'd planned of having an outing tomorrow up to Monday. But, it was canceled as I'm going to Cebu City on Monday early morning. But, wifey's unstoppable and persistent. He he he . . . Today, she called up her sister, our niece-in-law, my sister and invited them to have a day trip to Sun Moon Beach Resort in Bagac, Bataan. Her sister and our niece-in-law immediately accepted the invitation. My sister didn't want to come due to her recent surgery.
Oh, by the way, we just came home from the grocery!
Let's have fun and hit the beach!

The new Bacolod City Hall
Last February 9, I went to Bacolod City, the City of Smiles, to discuss with the City Treasurer the increase in its business tax rates, which is effective this year. My colleagues in the city accompanied me to the Treasurer’s Office at the ground floor of the City Hall. The good Treasurer explained to us the rationale of the increase and informed us that there’s a public hearing about the increase in tax rates at 2:00 PM in the new City Hall. So, the city has currently two city halls.
After eating our lunch, we proceeded to the new City Hall to attend the public hearing. Upon seeing the new City Hall, I was very much impressed with it.

Marching band
I’m a fan of marching bands since I was in my elementary days. We lived near a military camp. Everytime there’s a parade in the camp, I’d surely go there to watch the marching bands even without the permission of my parents.
Last Valentine’s day, we went to Clark Freeport Zone to watch the Hot Air Balloon fiesta. But, my attention was immediately caught by the marching band of the Airforce City. Thus, I watched the band performed first before everything else. And, I really enjoyed it.

Still alive and kicking
I've been absent from blogging for about two weeks now. It's because I've been very busy with my works and some other things. I've so many posts to make but my time is very limited.
I just wanted to let you know that I'm still here, alive and kicking.

Disguise your traffic
Are your favorite websites being blocked by your network administrator? Now, you can disguise your favorite websites and applications as normal website traffic and your proxy server would no longer bar them. And, I think this is great.
