My schedule for today is free. I just came form the dermatologist to get my zits zapped. The doctor injected a few big ones and each time she did it, I got teary-eyed. No pain, no gain- that was my mantra during the procedure. Tomorrow, my group will be attending the orientation for the volunteer work for the home for the aged in Bacolod. I hope all goes well...

On the first night of my stay, I got laid by the last person I expected to have sex with. I was looking forward to a suck and fuck session with my cousin that night. Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. His wife and kids postoned their plans to leave for Dumaguete that night. We were to go home together on Saturday. I was bitching about this over a bottle of beer when I got a SMS from Keith, Ian's semi-love interest and Gideon's roomate. He was all alone in his room and was getting ready for bed. I then asked him if I coud stay over because my cosin's house is too far and it was aready late. He said ok, so I made my excuses to the group and told them that I need to go home. I took taxi to Keith's place and the lovin started...

I spent three days and two nights in Cebu. On the first day of my stay, I accompanied my sister in law and nephews to the airport and gave them a short and dry-eyed send off. The rest of the day was sent at the Land Transportation Office with my younger sister. We had to straighten out some papers for the AUV my brother owned and sold to a couple in Manila. That night I had a reunion of sorts with my close friends. Melvin, a medrep, Gideon and Pamoi, both doctors, are my best friends who are based in Cebu. Ian and I decided to meet up with them since we're both free to go. I sent my Odette, my sister, to the bus station for the 6pm trip to Dumaguete. Afterwards, I had dinner at Mevin's house, had a short nap and a quick shower before getting ready for a night out with the gang. I wish life could be this good all the time...

Whew! The past week has been a rollercoaster ride. I just wrapped up my volunteer work at the orphanage in Bacong. Our group prepared the food and a short program for the kids during lunch time. We distributed some clothes for all the kids and they did some dance during the culmination program. The rest of the afternoon was spent by our group playing poker on the beach. I won thirty bucks and I left the game, giving room for another friend to take my place. That evening, I spent a few minutes to pack up some clothes. I was going to accompany my sister in law and the kids to Cebu. They were going to take the plane bound for Vancouver via a one-hour in Hongkong. A cousin vounteered to pick us up at the pier the next morning and drive us to the airport. Saying goodbye was harder than I thought it would be. I got to hug my sister and my nephews as they got ready to check-in at the departure area. Their flight was scheduled at 12 noon but we had to say our farewells three hours earlier. I hope to see them soon...
