fly with mhe

Just arrived yesterday from my week-long training/retreat and planning. Still exhausted but its a workday already. Arrgghhh.. Can I have a vacation extension, please?

My younger bro and I left Cagayan de Oro before 5AM  Sunday, April 5, for Davao City. Since much work had to be done, we proceeded directly to our objective. The sight seeing and lakwatsa was part of the plan. Hehe.. We stormed our camp’s venues, Mergrande Ocean Resort and Outland Adventure. But would not miss the Baywalk, People’s Park and Jack’s Ridge. Thursday morning, 6AM, flew to Cebu City for their staff retreat. I admit, I was so tired I had to hide at the back of my fellow participant so I won’t be caught drowsing in my seat.

What started as a brainstorming Sunday evening ended with a message-in-the-bottle  Sunday dawn. Was made an accomplice for my friend’s message of joy and hope in an empty and clean wine bottle. It was just for fun. We both don’t know the bottle’s fate yet hopes the bottle-finder would contact my friend and relates where the bottle is found and how the message has helped the person. I threw it around 3:40AM in the middle of the sea. It might go to Camiguin island or Bohol or in a far off place, I don’t know yet, I hope not in Sulu or on a pirate’s hand. I was even reprimanded by a crew for being in the rail. So I just pretended I was taking pictures of the bubbles of the waves created by the ship.

here is Sarah’s bottle with her letter in it, and here‘s her entry on it.

This morning, I witness a lady crossing a one-way street rightly and got reprimanded for it. She looked on the side where vehicles would come and didn’t bother to look the other side as it was a one-way street, of course. When she was at the middle, a motorbike from the wrong way of the street almost hit her. What’s more, the bike driver even had the guts to be angry at her and shouted bad words to her for not paying attention and watching the street. Huh.. The nerve.. He was the one violating the law and even got angry at the innocent pedestrian. What’s wrong with these people?

Last night, as I was on my way to Cugman along DiviSoria, the jeepney I rode in unkowingly hit the right side mirror of a metallic colored Toyota Vios behind us. The jeepney driver attempted to drive to the side as the car behind us also did the same, in effect, hitting the car’s side mirror with the jeepney’s tail. The innocent jeepney driver rode till Cogon while the car driver raced with him to get his attention. When he got the jeepney driver’s attention, he intentionally hit his now damaged side mirror to the reserved tire of the jeepney making more damaged to the now hanging side mirror and blamed the jeepney driver for it. He even demanded the jeepney driver to pay for the damage and replacement. Duh.. Who has the right of way anyway? But in a way, his rage made more damage to his car. What’s wrong with these people anyway? Why are they so stupid?

I remember one time, less than two years ago, I crossed the street fronting Dunkin Donut store in DiviSoria to my waiting groupmates. As it was a one-way street, I looked to my left and didn’t bother to look to the other side. As I was about to cross the street, just then, a bicycle driver shouted at me for being in his way. His wheels already touched my legs. My groupmates who saw the incident shouted at the bicycle driver for being in the wrong side of the road and for being angry. What’s wrong with these people?
