finally going home

six days of stay in gensan is such a short period of time to tour around and sight see, much more that my prime reason of goin' is to work and  though most of the time i was confined at tambler i still able to enjoy myself and more than glad that i come and see.


some other beautiful spot i haven't visit here were the reason that i need to come back, some other time.


rain rain go away, fallenrainnes is flying away...


..finally home, getting ready for the next destination, somewhere in Visayas, this time....




note:


there's  more gensan untold story, i'll share it once i make the luxury of time to write...

reunion with my fave fruit MARANG only in gensan

MARANG (Artocarpus odoratissimus) is  also called johey oak, green pedalai, madang, tarap, or breadfruit cousin. it is an exotic tropical  fruit that resembles like that of the jackfruit and can only be found in southeast asia.  


you don't have an idea how i missed "marang" it's like a decade now since i haven't tasted one. so on my fifth day in gensan, i got the chance going to the city, and there, i make sure that i picked one and satiate if not my empty stomach then just my watering big mouth.. LOL


for only five pesos
giggling for more!!
no matter how i crave for the fruit i manage to share the other piece to"didith," my close friend, colleague, batchmate, classmate and a neighbor at the province of Cagayan.  she was the one who guided and toured me in gensan for two-hour of sneaking at work.




wait a minute, she got the big one... huh!


just to share her part of the story... "didith" is also a stranger in this place wayback 2009 but when career development calls her, she accepted the offer to work here and maybe one of the reason why she's here is to unite me and marang one day, and it happened (my big thanks)..


she promised me to send  more products from here ...LOL


..will tell more funny stories,soon...

stressed, anyone?

time passes slow here in gensan maybe because the day is long, and on my fourth day the itinerary is to conduct lecture on managing stress.

as i prepare for the day, i asked myself "do i look stressed?", or my lecture recipient won't believe what i'm imparting or even cynical that i'm good at managing the irritating and nuisance . nonetheless i make sure that i look at my best today and that my listener would feel better after.

in general, i delivered the lecture smoothly, i wish i could help them produce more endorphins through humor adlibs and  help release the toxins that moonlighting in their bloodstream but the big part of changing your views in life relies on your readiness and acceptance of the need to change and that you want change and you will start to change, here, now and with your own free will.

have a stress free day, everyone...
 will tell more stories.. keep posted..!

sunny and dusty day @gensan

third day in gensan is a replica of my stay on the second day,that is another "tough working day" however, there's more mobility this day as we move from tambler to lanton, apopong, i even experience slight headaches and some body malaise, maybe brought by the warm weather and dusty road we traversed here and there.

that's work anyway, and the only console it gives me is to be able to do more sight seeing of buildings, streets, cabs, cars,people or get the feel of the heart of the city itself.




MAGANDANG GENSAN, everyone :)

tough day @gensan

would you dare ...?
my second day here in gensan is a tough day as it focused more on work related activities including but not limited to conferences, inspection under the heat of the sun, surveys, congenials, speeches, etc.. ahhh! indeed in action.

tension and uneasy feelings also came to me as a couple of peer pressures crossed the way, some dear friends persuading me to take the opportunity of being here and near and visit them in davao city.

davao according to my querries is about three hours from here when you take the bus. plus another three hours going back here, would mean a futile travel. for i might just be spending all my time in transport.

also, for some security reasons, time constraint and not free plus a lot of workload at hand the invites could be next to impossible, at least for now.

aside from that, is the thought that i don't wanna go to davao for such a short period of time for i might not enjoy the hassles and the rush. i'm looking forward though that seeing davao is soon coming my way.

meantime, im just taking the feel that i am indeed at gensan.

grateful to be here
boldness
grandiosity

me and naughtiness 

and stubborness
more post to come... keep posted..

welcome general santos city

GENERAL SANTOS CITY the boxing capital and city of champions has been in my list of places to go before travelling abroad, is now conquered.



i've been excited to land at the city of gensan since this is my first time here, excited as always because i know my experience here would be more than extraordinary. i'm thankful for the opportunity for it never occurred to me, that i'll reach gensan this year with a free travel expense. it's not bad to work hard though, aside from the experienced and exposure i gained i was able to meet different kind of people, cultures, events and places, which happened only to few, ordinary and lucky being.



i was staring at the big and heavy things which would transport me to my destination





excited, are you..?









and after the pilot announced that we are ready to touch down i immediately took a snapshot with the first thing that comes to my sight @gensan






voila!!! sunny and beautiful gensan and me...
