MY WIFE WOKE UP early and begins to prepare for our trip up north in Catmon. A good neighbor will be laid to his final resting place on this day, February 13, 2011, and we have to be there to pay our last respects. My other (living) neighbors have already gone there the night before and the bulk would be coming also today.

It is already 7:45 AM by the time we were on the street to hie a public utility jitney that would take ...

CAMP RED, FOR A change, went on a guided eco-tour of fourteen social educators from Denmark on February 5, 2011 at the foothills of the Babag Mountain Range, Cebu City. There were thirteen female and one male participants; I am the pointman; Boy Toledo as lead pack and Ernie Salomon bringing up the tail. Wil Rhys-Davies of bushcraftasia.com lights up the party in the middle with anecdotes and short tales.

Along the way, I introduced ...

Remember that time; gipalayas na ka ni kuya nimu sa minglanilla. Naa sila pipo, si mama nimu. Sila pa ni apple, gamay pa si bebang. Nagdala ko sa lata sa alaska nga gatas; kay mao ra to'y imung pinalit sa imung sweldo. Wala midapig si mama nimu nganha, nimu. Nahibulong ko pagayo nganung wala ra si mama nimu. Nakahinumdom ko sa gisulti ni Jed nako; bagohay pa lang jud; about nimu.

I AM OFF AGAIN for Manila. Prepared hard myself to have a “conscious” sleep so I wouldn't oversleep, of course, and miss my 5:00 AM flight. It had been raining for the past six days and I don't see any reason this weather would slack for a day or two and that makes me somewhat worried in the back of my mind.

I AM ON THE TRAIL once again on this second day of 2011. I will not be alone but will have with me Boy Toledo and Ernie Salomon of Camp Red; Randell Savior, Ian and Tonton Bathan of Tribu Dumagsa; Rowel Seno of Timex Outdoor Club; Dondon of Zubu Ecological Tour Society, Inc.; and Ms. Aisha Ronquillo, the only rose among the thorniest of thorns.

there's always that one person whom you think about everyday.

we met. we talked.
that's all we had and nothing else.

i wished that it would be you,
but it was just an illusion, and now i know better.

i don't like forcing things.
if you're not for me, why should i change you?

sure, it's the same stuff i say to myself over and over again.
but one day, you'll disappear from my mind and i won't have time to think about you anymore. ...
