Summer in the Philippines usually starts end of March – first week of April period. Two major events are being celebrated within these weeks, the Graduation ceremonies and the Holy Week. March – April – May are considered as peak months in most resorts. The most popular summer destinations in the country are Boracay, Puerto Galera, Baguio, Bohol and Palawan. So what are you waiting for? Gather your resources, call your friends and plan for the next gimik!

The most memorable resorts that I have gone to so far… Coco Beach and White Beach in Puerto Galera, Caylabne Resort in Ternate-Cavite, and a certain resort in Palawan (sobrang memorable, nalimutan ko yung resort). Of course who can forget (actually marami na ang nakakalimot) the popular local resorts here in Cavite namely, The Josephine’s Water Camp, Cherry’s Pavilion and Island Cove’s Oceana in Kawit, Cavite and the ever popular, newest craze resort in Tanza, Hardin ng Postema Resort. (Haha, hindi ko na mabilang kung ilang beses kami nagtampisaw sa resort na ito, suki baga).

Anyways, whatever your plans are this summer, no matter how tight-budget you are, just enjoy the sun, the sand (kung beach) and the water. Always take caution, hinay-hinay lang sa pag-inom at isiping may bukas para sa susunod na tagay. Tata!

Holy Week '08

As we celebrate the passion and sufferings of Christ in this season of lent, let us contemplate on our sins, and ask for forgiveness.

One of the most popular tradition that most Catholics do in the Philippines on Maundy Thursday is the Visita Iglesia where people visits at least 14 Churches, representing the 14 Stations of the Cross.  Aside from the usual sight-seeing and meeting friends that comes along in visiting different churches, let us put into our hearts the true meaning of this undertaking and pray for our country.  I would definitely miss this event this year, for reasons beyond my control.
