A 9-hour Day Tour: The Awesome Sibling Adventure Itinerary

Image
Who's in for a day tour in the south? Cebu is like a second home to me since my move for college more than a decade ago. However, despite my years of existence in the city, I haven't explored the wonders of nature that the Cebu province offers. Without further ado, let me tell you how did I accomplish the trip. My sister and I agreed to go to Tumalog Falls first, eat lunch and a quick dip in DakongBato Beach & Leisure Resort then off to Osmeña Peak. Our itinerary was pretty serious and strict . We took the air conditioned bus from  Cebu South Bus Terminal  for a fare of  Php175 each . We left the terminal around 4:50AM but the bus had to refuel at their station nearby. We officially left the city at 5:10AM and arrived at Tumalog Falls junction at 8:10AM . Yes, the travel duration was 3 hours if you took a bus and I preferred an air conditioned transporation for that matter. TIP: Ensure to ask the conductor to inform you when you reach the junction.

My Internship Experience

Internship Days! Oh, I missed those days... I can still remember the feeling of receiving my "first salary" from my "first job". But of course, the experience of doing the real work in a corporate world was very fulfilling. I didn't feel like an intern; it felt like real work to me already. I was surrounded by regular employees and reporting to a team lead, then manager. Interns were also required to follow the dress code. It was funny because one day, I wore a high-heeled sandals. While standing at the edge of the road, waiting for a jeepney, one strap was detached. It was the most embarrassing moment but I tried and managed to tie it to the other strap and viola! It worked. Oh well, mishaps really happen, sometimes. I would like to share with you the good thing of internship that JP Morgan offers.

Make it Real

Tonight it's been a year We met each other here Here I am all alone As thoughts of you go on Hear me cryin' out to you You said, "Never, never would I leave" Here's a tear from me to you And maybe it will make you hear me I loved you You didn't feel the same Though we're apart You're in my heart Give me one more chance to Make it real In a dream you are here You smile and hold me near And in my heart I'll pretend That you are here again Hear me cryin' out to you You said, "Never, never would I leave" Here's a tear from me to you And maybe it will make you hear me Give me one more chance to Make it real ----------------------------- In my usual days, I sing random songs. Well, it doesn't have to be a full-length song and it feels good. Most often, I do this when I am emotionally down. I tend to pick up few lyrics of the song that somehow suits to the sit...

Introducing: My Home Workstation

I have been dreaming and planning of putting up a workstation at home. That vision becomes a reality this year. I realize that if you want to do something, make an effort - ACT. Introducing, my home workstation:    My Home Workstation I am so happy when this is realized. I keep on staying this place and do anything - watch movie, make my 2015 journal (will be discussed in another post), cut pictures, write, etc. Happy working! :) ~Lady Grace~

Nutrition Month

Image
July is nutrition month! I remember when I was in elementary years, our school was very busy cooking different kind of nutritional food. We were asked to bring vegetables, and during lunch time, we lined up to the canteen to get our share. It was fun, really. As we grow and have work, we sometimes forget the value of nutrition of the food we eat, especially if we are very dedicated with work - we choose to buy and eat the food offered by fast food chains. Early this year, I was trying to restore the healthy living eating habit by adding fruits to my meal and I chose this mixture. Brighten up your day by adding fruits and vegetables to your meal - rekindle nutrition. ~Lady Grace~

Emotion

When situation becomes vague, The heart pumps with love and pain. Uncertainty comes in mind, But the love prevails the same. Pushing out the hurt inside, To release the stress aside. No matter what happen now, The faith will keep thee alive. Being grateful to present, And hopeful for tomorrow. Believing in His power, Everything else will follow. Poem-making is not a forte, But emotion dictates thee. ~Lady Grace~
