cebu, cebu

i was in cebu on feb 26. yes, it was for an official function. but no, i wasnt there to attend the meetings, seminars or whatnots. i was there to sing. yes, you read that right: my company is now employing my talents as well.

don't get me wrong. i am happy to do it. in fact, i was thrilled when i heard the news i'll be part of the group singing on that day.

it's just that... well, you know how it is when you travel, you'd like to absorb as much of the place as you can? the tourist spots (or otherwise), the people, the food - i want to experience it all everytime i am in a different place. i rarely get to travel as it is, and now that here's one opportunity for me to do so (for free at that), i squandered at the opportunity.

sigh... it's all good. i mean, i wasnt there for vacation anyway. but come on, i was already there! i am sure a lot has changed in the four years since i was last there. there's no use crying over spilled milk.

one good thing my trip has brought about, though, is the food. and the hotels. to be more precise, the food in the hotels. i was checked in at the waterfront hotel in mactan. it is literally beside the mactan international airport. the food was fabulous! for lunch, we had steamed lapu-lapu, plus veggies, soup, etc. a very satisfying meal. then we headed for shangri-la mactan, where the event took place. another gastronomic feast! we had fresh pink salmon. i swear, if it wouldn't result in my social death, i would have taken home some salmon. nay, a lot. but of course, i didn't. after all, big bosses from various global and regional positions were there. i am merely at the bottom of the food chain. a position of leadership, yes, but still at the bottom. hehehe.

i am hoping i would get the chance to visit cebu again real soon. perhaps i could save up for it? after all, the P1 flights are still in existence if i'm not mistaken. well, right now i don't think it's feasible, what with my outstanding loans and credit card bills. sigh... i really need help! but all is possible. the law of attraction... the secret...

poof! i'm filthy rich! =)

later.
