Sunken Cemetery

The Sunken Cemetery

 

Locals said the real sunken cemetery was destroyed by a calamity and so they made a replica of it. Going to the said cemetery, we had to ride a boat. There wasn’t much on it, just the beautiful beach with it’s crystal waters and mountains surrounding it. Viewing the old Mt. Volcan and Mt. Hibok Hibok on the other side was magnificent! What made our experience at sunken cemetery fun was the pictorials! Our guide was the photographer and he choreographed all our photo takings. The outcome was excellent! If you wanted to see the real sunken cemetery, you have to go diving underneath.

Sto. Niño Cold Spring

Sto. Niño Cold Spring

Our first stop during our Camiguin Trip was at Sto. Niño Cold Spring. The resort was developed into a pool with it’s water flowing. Outside the resort you can see stores for “pasalubong” and mini restaurants. We had our lunch there so we took an order from one of the stores and while waiting for our food to be served, we took a dip in their cold spring. Indeed it was cold and surprisingly very relaxing especially coming from a tiring trip. I had goosebumps in it.  I even saw small fishes underneath. The entrance fee was P20 per head while the cottage was P50. The food was okay and it’s not that expensive there.

A Relaxing Weekend Getaway

Camiguin – our weekend getaway destination! This small island in the Visayas Region, a volcanic origin, has captured my love for nature. It’s gifted with many wonders of Mother Earth like the cold and hot springs, waterfalls and beautiful beaches. I can’t help but felt relaxed touring around the island during our first day. Normally, I get headaches on day tours but with this trip, it was just so relaxing viewing it’s beautiful beaches with crystal waters along the way and magnificent mountains on the other side. It was a typical province were everything’s so laid back. I just adore the place a lot and got to enjoy the heat of the sun without burning my skin.

Jumped off from Davao to Cagayan de Oro via plane. Stayed at Cagayan for the night at Grand City Hotel and walked along the streets of the city where night markets were located.

Morning came and we then headed to Balingoan Pier and took the fast craft, Paras Sea Cat, going to Camiguin. It’a two hour trip from Balingoan Pier (Cagayan) to Benoni Pier in Camiguin. From Benoni, we were met by our tour guide Teddy and Roland. We availed of their package which includes our accommodation and day tour. We had a good experience with their service too. So if you are going to Camiguin with a tight budget like us, we highly recommend Teddy’s service.

A one and a half day was spent in the island. Heading home we took the longer trip since the fast craft only have twice a day schedule from Camiguin. We can’t reach our flight back home if we’ll wait for it. And so we headed to Benoni Pier and took a regular ferry which took us a 1 hour trip going to Balingoan Terminal in Misamis Oriental. From there we took a bus going to Cagayan which lasted for 2 hours. It was a tiring trip. We had our late lunch at Limketkai mall then off we went to the airport for our flight back to Davao.

Notes In Order To Have A Good Relationship

A repost.

1. A man won’t let go if he really loves you. Do not hold on to someone who has let go of you. He does not love you and does not value having you. Believe me, he will not let go if he really loves you. There is another reason he is not willing to tell.

2. Do not look for reasons why he ended the relationship. There is only one reason why he ended your relationship. He just does not love you. Do not waste your time thinking of reasons or what you should have done. Move on and be open to a man who will truly love you.

3. Do not get hang up on your past. Do not nag or distrust your current boyfriend just because your ex hurt you. Do not treat him or the relationship the same way. Do not compare. He will not react the same way as your ex. Do not be worried that your simple mistakes will cause him to look for another girl. What happened with your ex was not your fault. It was not because you didn’t guard him enough or you didn’t make him happy enough.

4. Do not look into images. How many times have you met a girl who didn’t have the best image in school or at the office, but you get to know the girl and found out she was actually extremely nice? Do not rely on images. Oftentimes, it is far from reality. Do not fear men just because your “supposedly” perfect ex-boyfriend mistreated you.

5. Always have your own set of rules. Set your limits on how far you’d go for a guy. It’s perfectly ok to give and do everything as long as it’s worth it. And it’s worth it if the guy is treating you right.

6. Do not be scared to lose him. Don’t be scared that he’ll break up with you. Once you are afraid of losing him, you easily can be taken advantage. Be strong and if something is unacceptable, do not accept it and speak up.

7. Avoid calling your guy. It’s a guy thing. The relationship will definitely be better if it’s the guy who’s calling, not the girl. He will get tired of you if you keep on calling. He will lose interest and challenge. More so, he will get annoyed. But it’s a girl thing also that your fingers get too itchy until you dial his number. But avoid as much as possible. Call only if really needed (like checking if your suspicions are reasonable).

8. There is a guy who will value you. There is a guy out there who can make you feel valued, appreciated, and loved. And I mean, not just during your first few weeks together. So don’t lose hope. Don’t settle for a lesbian if you are not attracted to women. There is a man out there who can love you like a girl can. Also, do not believe him when he says it’s just the way he really is. He’s not the sweet or expressive-type. Remember during your first few weeks together? Where has that sweet guy gone? He simply is not that into you anymore.

9. Always be the only one, no matter what. Do not ever fall for a guy who has another girl, be it his wife, girlfriend, or any girl that he says he just can’t get rid of for whatever reason. If you truly believe that he loves you and for some reason, he can’t leave or let go of another girl, then you are no different from any ordinary mistress.

10. He must respect you. No matter how long the relationship has been, he should always show respect towards you.

11. If he fooled you, end it. Philandering once is enough. You can never trust nor respect the person again.

12. Never start a relationship the wrong way. Do not steal another girl’s man, for whatever reason. Nor should you enter a relationship for the wrong reasons (loneliness, on the rebound, getting back at your ex, man-dependency, etc.) it is bound not to last. You will only end up wasting more years of your life.

13. Do not force yourself into a relationship. Do not get into a relationship just because your friends are getting impatient with your dating escapades and the one hasn’t come yet. Do not choose who to say yes to based on superficial things like money, looks, cars, etc.. If you are even thinking of these things, you have not fallen in love yet.

14. Do not settle. If you are not happy anymore with your relationship, break up instantly. He will not stay with you forever no matter how upright he might seem to be. Eventually, he will also want love and happiness in his life.

15. A relationship has to have love. Love is the only thing that will push you to give your efforts into making the relationship work. And believe me, keeping a relationship requires genuine efforts of both parties.

16. Don’t be afraid to be single. It’s fun to be single, try it. You can go out whenever and wherever you want. You are free. You can date whomever you want and you get to go out for free! Do not get a boyfriend just for the sake of having one. Do not settle.

17. Be a good girl. Be a good girl to attract a good guy. Enter the relationship with sincere intentions. Take the guy and the relationship seriously with the plan of spending the rest of your life with that person (of course, this is after you had your bit of fun in your younger years). If you compare your flings from your real relationships, you will know that the latter makes you happier and more fulfilled.

18. Love without limits. Whether you loved and gave everything or loved but held out for some things, if the relationship ends, you still get hurt. But if you gave your everything, you were happy and you could say that it was worth it. If you didn’t give your all, you get hurt for nothing.

19. You will get over him. Love is over-stated. Love eventually ends and you are free to love another. 20. Be the one. Act like you are the one. Don’t be a nagger. Don’t hinder his gimmicks. Don’t give in to him too easily. Make him treat you as important. Don’t be easy. Don’t be like every other girl he had in his life.

Hot Pink Dress

Since early of this month, I’ve been searching for a dress to wear for my friend’s wedding. I will be attending as a guest. I was planing to wear something black. But I guess, since the motif would be a Japanese cherry blossom inspired, I thought the color of my dress should go with the motif. That made my shopping kind of difficulty. I cannot find something nice to wear in a baby pink colored dress. Until my friend and I went to SM the other day and there I found the dress that I want. It’s not really of baby pink but more of a hot pink! Kind of casual one but I think it can be worn in weddings too if accessorized properly fort he event. I matched it up with a cream colored heels and was now thinking of what kind of make up I should go with it. Be it something on the neutral side or grayish but definitely not from the pink family.

Congratulations to my Cousin

Got a surprise news this morning from my mom. She was asking if I’m coming with them to Tagum City to attend to my cousin’s opening and blessing of her 2nd branch drugstore. I am so proud of her being so good at her field. She has grown to be a woman and a good businesswoman. Resigning from her work to focus on their family business, I think is worth the risk.

Possible Employer

Got a surprised call from an agency’s main office in Manila and asked if I am still interested in their program to work in Australia since I am qualified for that being a nurse. How I wish it’s just that easy to process all my papers. And so I told him that I am still interested but I got some minor problem with one of their requirements and I’m still working on it. Hopefully I’ll get all the requirements done before this year ends.

Shocking News

Learning about the untimely death of a friend and a teammate saddened me yesterday especially when I heard the cause of his death. Intruders got inside their house with an intent for robbery and killed him when he tried to fight back. He died due to a gunshot wound. It was awkward watching the news with him on it. He was dead on arrival in the hospital. We are saddened to hear that a friend was a victim of such tragedy. May justice serve him well.

Smooth Night Shift Duty

Gladly the other night’s shift wasn’t that bad after a previous night of ghostly experience in our unit. My colleagues and I weren’t able to sleep well that night since a lot of weird and creepy stuff happened. Just so you know, our main door’s doorbell just rang without someone and we heard our caps and masks’ drawer opened along with our OR’s door. That scared us out! We were hoping the clock would tick faster so it would be morning. It was a relief when we saw the sunlight outside the window which tells us that it’s already morning and we can go head home.
