They said, a long travel start with a single step. Of course
traveling
is one of my favorite escapades after stressful work. It is one way of pampering myself and enjoy the serene moments of the place when I am at the beach or mountain. Or somehow killing myself going out late at night partying, drinking till drunk and grasping the smoke all you can at the bar with nocturnal friends...
After encouragement of my
special someone, I started the world of blog since I am a traveler and love eating and partying. Somehow, I can share to all bloggers what's the best place, events, food, dates so on and so forth about the Philippines or maybe outside the country...
When I was still in
college, I've been busy with studies and my extra curricular activities. After knowing (just before graduation) that my scholarship in high school will not continue till college, my desire of being a MedTech suddenly turn to an Accountant since it is cheaper than the latter course. I was been a service crew at Greenwich and a Store Marketing Assistant at Jollibee 2 years later. My world does not only evolve in school, church and work but as well as attending activities out of town, as a member of
DIWANAG
Dance Theater in school. I've been out of town in Bohol to perform showcasing not only modern dances but as well as Bohol's history and pride in a form of dance theater. I am so grateful to the troupe since I got 100% free tuition fee as an officer. I got the chance to fly Manila via Cebu Pacific (was my 1st time to board in plane though) to represent the tourism in Bohol at the Glorietta Makati. We performed several times in Cebu at Ayala Center and USC.
Graduation in college signifies not only the end of life's struggle but it is now the beginning of the real battle of life. Just after graduation, I went to Manila to have my review for the CPA board exam. Overwhelmed with the biggest City in the country, I spend a lot of times going out and enjoy the company of friends. Not to mention the naughtiness since Manila can offer everything..hehehe... They said, when you got to live Manila, you will see the real you...Well, who knows what I've been looking for that time...Actually a college ex girlfriend went there just to see me... I got to experienced
movie
alone and see what's going on inside hehehe, the traffic, dusty roads, night clubs, everything you can see in Manila...After the board, I applied a job as an accounting staff. Apparently, it didn't work out since I can't deal with long hour travel during busy hours in the road and waking up early to catch up your schedules.
My next destination was in Iloilo. I decided to stop over this place before going back to Bohol to see my sister and her family as well as a friend. I got to love the place because it's near Boracay where my friend brought me there all expense paid. (clap3x) Since I was bored staying for a month without earning at all, I decided to apply for a job and was fortunately hired and was sent to Manila for the interview and training. I had the chance to go back to Iloilo for 2 weeks prior to my new assignment in Bacolod for the on site hands on. As I recall, the nice place to hang out there was Convan, Barracks and Vega...
Here we go Bacolod, where I learned everything including nasty things. yikes! There's a lot of things happened in this place and can't narrate them all. Maybe next time. I had the longest girlfriend (9mos only hehehe) in Bacolod (let's just call her Tina) and she's actually the daughter of my manager.. haneeeppp.. flawless and very sexy...They said I am pervert but not really.. Prior meeting her, I had an acquaintance also to one of the employee (let's just tag her as Juana) at EPCI (BDO) who cried and fight me after knowing that I am going to leave her coz I found a new one. Do you know where we fought? After treating me at Pizza Hut(where I confessed), she brought me to a place and there you go...expressing her anger and sobbing due to what had happen... Well after that, we had our goodbye you know...hahaha... For that reason, my good relationship with the bank turned to bitterness.. They will not allow my utility to get in after 3pm unlike before. Much to her surprise, I brought with me my new gf in the bank and there, her eyes are staring to us as if trying to
eat
both of us. Let's leave that piece for now and let's not disclose the
story
of Tina.
After a tremendous experienced at Bacolod, I moved in to Cebu where I am very familiar with. It is just beside my hometown Bohol and very accessible. I need a lot of work to do in this branch since audit is very hot and miticulous in their expenses and disbursements. Party is very high the fact that it was my first time to be admitted at
Chong Hua Hospital due to stress and fatigue after 3 consecutive nights of drinking. I got
acute severe pneumonia, high in uric acid (due to alcohol since it's still 8 hrs hehehe),
pharyngitis due to smoke and fever...Gosh! I just had a very nice vacation for 3 days at the hospital alone...huhuhu...I can't imagine myself packing my things and admitting alone..so awful..Another wild experienced was when I got super drunk at The Village Courtyard due to Tequila..I think this kind of alcoholic drinks is a traitor one. I was enjoying the last sip of the bottle and went to the ramp to dance with the crowd but it seems that when I was dancing the surroundings went black. All of a sudden I jumped from the ramp and can't even lift myself out from the floor after falling. My friends were worried if I am ok and we then left the club after paying the bill. All I remembered was when I woke up, my clothes was changed, I smell like I vomited, and my head was burning in hell. Lesson learned...Drink moderately. hehehe
The journey continues to Davao after I asked my boss to transfer me there knowing that it's a newly opened branch. The people there are cool...Very clean and big city. It's even low cost of living. The office is just beside
MTS and fronting Ateneo De Davao Elem. & HS. The water is awesome, you don't need to buy mineral water for drinking. You can safely drink direct from the faucet...*thumbs up! In Davao, you can explore the beautiful places there like Samal Island, Eden Park, Jack's Ridge and party at night at MTS, The Venue and Promenade are my best choices.
To simply end this blog because I need to park now, the last destination is here in Cebu City. Since I was promoted to handle the branch in Cebu, I grabbed the opportunity. It was a privelege since I covered Bohol, Leyte and Negros. I've been traveling twice a month to visit our satellite operations. I got to meet a lot of people and visit different kind of places. My career doesn't ended in my previous company. After almost 5 years of rendering my service, I quit not because am a looser but because I need new environment. I widen up my horizon and embraced my new employer
Lexmark. It's here where I learned so much about life and the business arena. It's nice to know that somehow, you're working with competitive professionals and ass kissing employee as well. I've been working with different companies and I guess it's normal in a business organization.(Bato2 sa langit tamaan wag sana magalit) I am so proud with Lexmark as an employer because they offer a very good benefits and high paying job. Needless to say, this is already my 2nd home and my 2nd family. Grateful of the US visa for 10 years and the opportunity to travel both Singapore and US. The fond and excitement are always be treasured.
Life still continues. The journey just started. There's still a lot of things to happen at my age now. I will never stop dreaming and believing. For only then we can say that life has really something to offer if we all have the determination and passion on the things that we like. Just like this blog, I am too late but it's better than never...God Bless!...
without taking a bath. Waaaah.... No water
in the apartment!!! I woke up around 2pm and getting ready for my daily routine, going to the rest room to cool off before heading to the office. To my surprise, there's no water available for shower
except for the 1/4 pale of water. What I did was just wash my face and wet my hair to look fresh. hehehe...(can you relate?) Well, what's the used of your perfume in order to smell you more comfortable and refreshing...hahaha... So I went to the office looking fresh outside but not as cool as inside. ;-)
and no water available in our apartment. To think this is the most expensive pad I've stayed ever since I vanished my home sweet home...What's more annoying is that our rest room (which is most important) is useless since we can't make use of it the fact that the water can't go up to the 2nd level where we are located. We need to go down and use the common rest room which is not really that clean and sometimes smells nasty
. One thing as well, there's a leak in the tank
above which causes the water to flow towards the room just below our place and that will cause you trouble since they will blame you for that... Oh crap! I wanna get out from this place... I have 1 month more to struggle...
while sniffing the cold air since it's 
now and not to mention the typhoon that hit our 
...hehehe. Sad to say that 
we went back to the office, 
as usual!
