da bow davao - friday

after some lite sleeping our destination was Chema's by the sea. The port to Chema's was way way better than what I was expecting.

Chema's at last

Chema's was very serene. Indeed if you were to stay in Davao for some decent R&R this would be the place to be.

after waiting...

waiting...

and waiting...

our food finally came. They said that the delay was because they had to get the eggs from the main island. I would've complained more if the food wasn't great, good thing it was.

Halo halo Mais con Yelo (pala) ni Au na kuha ni Au.

Au has an eye for photography.
All she needs is her own SLRs. ^__^

after resting for a while... The beach at last!

I was really looking forward to a nice sunset but alas the clouds were not in my favor.


so after the whole afternoon dip we had some very tasty chicken, sisig and other non-diet helping dish.

then videoke till sleep finally caught us.

Zzzz...

da bow davao - thursday

it was the 6th of july, thursday. Straight from the office, we went to a domestic airport, having purchased Cebu Pacific Promo tickets for only Php10.00 (+tax), all of us were giddy. Our destination, davao.

the plane came 1hr later than expected, Cebu Pacific you failed me! Way back I think they had an ad about their planes being earlier than usual diverting from the Filipino mañana habit.. Boo!

well after the wait we were seated at last and a few minutes, Mushy and I were napping... I woke up shortly after some turbulence and maybe because subconciously I felt that the snacks was being served.

After distributing all the snacks, the stewardess started some q&a games in which I won a tout bag! Cebu Pacific you've redeemed yourself! (Question: What was the name of the stewardess on the back of the plane. Answer: Lovely [It was purely coincidental that I read her name plate earlier before boarding... promise... and no.. I'm not guilty.])

2:45hrs later... Davao airport.

at last after more than 3 months of waiting we were in Davao at last. Cheche, a very friendly and hospitable friend (salamat sa free lodging at masarap na pagkain Chechers. ^___^) of Mushy was nice enough to tour us around Davao and also Gen San. (more on that later)

From the airport, we went straight to Jack's ridge. I too don't know Jack, but the overlooking was great!


after some more photo-taking from the group, which from here on we will call the company (para favorite na rin ni kitie) we went to Checher's apartment.

flaunting some booty or the lack of it. =P

After eating some sisig with mayo and repacking some stuffs for the next day we went to sleep.

penguin wear

suits me very well... thanks mush.

tribute to dad

It's been a looo0ng while since my last post and what better way to start another stream of posts than to start with something meaningful.

Today is father's day and I forgot... hahahahahaha... Anyways forgeting father's day doesn't make me any less of a son. Earlier, I was just listening to my father preach about how being a father, one of their greatest achievements is to see their child eventually grow just the way they like it... just like them. (and maybe minus some of their quirks)

Well, I could consider dad as one of my first 'idulo'. Even though he's an undergrad he has managed to raise the family together with my mom. He is able to provide everything that we needed and most of what we wanted. (I think by now you should know the difference of needs and wants)

I don't really know what I should write...
Guess I'll just have to summarize it.

'Thank you Papa'

ps.
If i'm too corny please blame it on my father. wakokokoko

sounds like heaven

if ever a need arises for a well earned reward I really want to buy the Creative Audigy2 ZS Notebook for myself.It's a bad ass PCMCIA soundcard that I would greatly benefit in because I can now again plug my 5.1 speaker, the Logitech Z-640 (pictured above). Note: 5.1 Speakers requires 3 audio input ports to work and since laptops only have 1 audio input you could do the math.



Now if ever I did buy the Audigy2 ZS Notebook for myself then a THX certified speaker would be my next target. Now that would really heighten my entertainment system. Case in point: Logitech Z-5500... drool grabe... drool!!!

basic memories

I don't have anything to post so the geek inside me will just share some info about computer memories.

Tis a good read for the geek inside you.

oh my sungay!

habang ako ay nakasakay ng fx papunta ng office ako'y matahimik na nagmumuni muni habang nakatingin sa labas ng bigla ko namataan ang isang kalabaw sa loob ng isang truck.

Duon napunta ang focus ng aking pagmumuni muni, habang tinitignan ko yung kalabaw, napansin ko ang mahahaba nyan sungay at naalala ko rin ang kanyang pinsan na toro.

Ginagamit ng toro ang kanyang sungay pansuwag para pandepensa nya sa mga masasamang loob.

E paano naman ang kalabaw? pabaliktad ang sungay nya? mas una tatama malamang lamang ang nuo nya kesa sa sungay... tsk

hindi ko na alam kung saan talaga nya ginagamit ang sungay nya. Pwede na sana pampabilis ng takbo dahil magiging less ang air resistance, ngunit hindi naman sya ganun kabilis tumakbo in the first place... tsk tsk...

Kompanyouting

I was so excited to go to my very first company outing held at Verde Islands in Batangas, after all this will be my 3rd, yep only 3rd, time to go to the beach and have some fun under the sun.

yung happy foot ko lang yung nagfufun under the sun... the rest under the shade na.

We had some team oriented contest which started off with a cheering competition. So my team practiced for about 1.5hrs and maybe because we were all exhausted from the trip to the island or the heat of the sun or the weeks work or... uhmmm.. i'm out of excuses... hehehehe.. so because of unknown reasons our cheer sounded more like a chant taken from a Gregorian chant CD backmasked then recomposed with a 32bit bitrate. In layman's term we made it 5th in a 5 team competition.

After the chant thingie we did a human bingo wherein if you were the first to answer correctly in the game expect to sit your ass off for the rest of the game.... hehehehehehe.. my part here is to peel of butong pakwan with my teeth and the seed must remain unscathed. I blame my teeth for being too sharp for this event. Sad to say, I never had the chance to sit my ass off in the heat of the summer sun just like the rest of my team mates.

mwehehehehehe...

Next follows a sort of amazing race game wherein we ran to and fro the island to our exhaustion. We were supposedly second place but due to technicalities we were awarded first! Hurrah for us! So overall we were last... wakokokokoko... and we couldn't have been more happier. ^____^

dito ka na sa Suman

pagkatapos ng grabe sa nakakapagod na mga laro naisipan ko na mahiga sa silong ng aming nirentahang kubo dahil mayroon nakasabit na hammock para sa isang hamak na katulad ko. Mas sumarap ang simoy ng hangin nuong dumating ang isang taong itago na lang natin sa pangalang muning. Tinamad na kami magpahinga dahil sinipag na kami ni itago nalang natin sa pangalang muning na kumain. Sa kasamaang palad medyo nahuli ang dating namin kaya kumain na lang kami ng pasta na kailangan ata samahan ng tubig alat para magkalasa man lang. Ngayon lang ako kumain ng pasta na mabagal bago ko naubos... (basahin ulit... nagjoke ako... wakokoko)

mwehehehehehe...

pagkatapos ay nagswimming na kami sa swimming pool... ang only highlight lang dito ay lumutang na rin ako sa wakas...

after the dip we had several shots of fundador and then went to sleep.

mwehehehehehe...

bet some of you know the reason behind au's smug... wakokokoko

the following morning or to be more precise, after 4hrs, I woke up with no hang-over... the money in teh brandy was well worth it... after eating breakfast and a little rest we went banana boating. The experience made me realize that I really need to learn how to swim. FYI I didn't drown or anything but I was moving uber slowly... huhuhuhu... so much for my penguin feet.

mwehehehehehe...

mwehehehehe

If you've noticed, I don't have much photos in this post. I don't know why.... hehehehehe... but I will sure make up for it in the next events to come...

hulaan kung nasaan ako?
I'm keeping a low profile.

bit in

every bit in the byte puts a simmer in the spice
and every bit in the boolean adds more to the fun
but tis still not good cause bit in is bit in still.
