50 Minutes Delayed

While I was informed that my flight back to Davao will be delayed by fifty minutes a day before my departure, some passengers remained clueless about it. I can see that most of them are tired, bored and irritated.

As for me...well...one way of killing your boredom is to shoot!

Home...almost

After a bloody and gruesome week at the on-campus photojournalism class, it's time to go home and try to live a "normal" life again.

Had a short chat with the beautiful people of MindaNews and their plans before heading to the bus terminal. The bus station going to General Santos City is a total chaos. Passengers are trying to get ahead of each other knowing that only one bus company will be plying the Davao-Gen. Santos route.

Yellow Bus Company Inc. is closing down for a month to protest the recent bombing of one of their units that killed one passenger and wounded others.

I got frustrated by the scene, it made me feel like I'm in Metro Manila. What's more frustrating is that am stucked in General Santos because buses will no longer ply the General Santos-Koronadal City route once the sun sets.

Oh well...am home...ALMOST!

In the Name of The Father.

While Tatay took his "final exams", went to heaven and taught the angels how to make documentaries, tatay left something that will always remind people how to be human.

Dare.

Pst!

Guilty as charged!

Yeah this blog has been "dead" for almost a month and am so sorry for not updating it.

Been very busy with so many things that I can't make a sensible entry. Will try to get back into shape and start posting photos of my misadventures.

Thank you for the patience.

Of consumerism and poverty. Tuwang tuwa si Ronald McDonald sa batang kanyang naloko. Ilang Pilipino kaya ang naloloko ni Ronald araw araw. Isali mo na ako dun.

WTF! Bikini Open in Lake Sebu!?

WELCOME
TO OUR
ANCESTRAL DOMAIN
TRIBAL DATUS AND OFFICIALS OF LAKE SEBU

says one huge marker as the jeep inches its way up in a paved road courtesy of "development."

Lake Sebu is a small town in the province of South Cotabato. It is regarded as the "Summer Capital of Southern Mindanao." Lake Sebu is also the name of one of the three major lakes that irrigates Allah Valley and the provinces of South Cotabato and Sultan Kudarat. It has seven waterfalls, and springs.

Legend tells a story of a local princess who went to Sebu, she saw a big leaf, opened it out ...and out jumped a frog. Water gushed out from the leaf and flooded the place and the lake was born.

From the heavens, the princess threw her phyton to the earth and formed the islands. The princess' brother divided the islands so the princess could pass.

Lake Sebu was named in honor of the loyal servant of the princess.

The Tboli's, the indigenous peoples of Lake Sebu consider the lake not only as a God-given food basket but also a miraculous body of water that never dries up.

If you are planning of going to the place, it will take you almost two hours to reach it from the coastal city of General Santos passing through four municipalities of South Cotabato and one city; Koronadal on a public ride.

Lake Sebu is about a thousand meters above sea level with an average temperature of 18 degrees Celsius, a very unlikely and cold place to wear your bikinis!

Salamat sa mga sumusunod:

JR, my narcissistic cousin for his camera. Damo gid nga salamat.

Ossie, Tatay's baby wahahahaha who never stops believing in me.

Elly Maguan, for driving me around town. Sa uulitin ha!

Lang Dulay, for the words and kindness...nawa'y humaba pa ang buhay mo at makakapaghabi ka pa ng maraming tnalak.

The people of Lake Sebu, please protect your place and your culture. You owe it to your sons and daughters and to the generations to come.
