Travelogue I: CORON, A Late Summer Trip

June 4, 2006

Another long weekend is coming up (June 10-12) and what better way to spend it than to travel to Coron, Palawan over the weekend, Right?!  All you need is a friend/sibling/lover to go with you and around P12,000 cash for the both of you and off you go! Never mind the weather. It won’t be so bad since the heavy rainy season at Coron falls on the month of September. And it’s only June.  Superferry bound to Coron leaves the Manila port at around 9PM on a Friday and by 7am Saturday, you’re already there! The boat leaves for Manila every Sunday, 9PM and by Monday morning, you’re back! Perfect schedule for a perfect vacation, right?

Unthought of Words Hurt

It’s so awkward being around my parents. When there is nothing left to say, why say anything at all?  Like, “Jen, ang taba-taba mo na, ang itim-itim mo pa”. Why can’t they just shut up! Don’t they know that I spend so much time building up my defenses so I won’t feel weak anymore? And with just a few words, every strength I’ve conjured up will just come tumbling down to pieces.  

I sometimes hate my parents. They made my childhood and adolescent years quite miserable, and they never fail to do so now that I’ve become an adult. No wonder I don’t want to be a parent myself. I know what it’s all about already. So why bother?
