Mandaue Business Month Press Conference
July 17, 2008
I mentioned in an earlier post that I got invited by Mr. Wilson Ng to attend the Mandaue Business Month press conference. The invitation was also open to other 15 bloggers but only a few responded because of some conflicts in schedule. Among those who attended the press conference are Aileen (http://sunchoke.net), Wil (http://misswilhelmina.com), Paul (http://cebudirectories.com), Nick (http://in-indie.org), Arnold (http://cebuheritage.com), and Rio (http://ngkhai.net/blog).
Present during the press conference are the people from the business sector, the media, and Hon. Gwen Garcia, the governor of the province of Cebu. The purpose of that press conference is to formally launch the upcoming 17th Visayas Business Area Business Conference and the Mandaue Business Month.

Barbeque at Larsian’s
May 27, 2008
The first week in Cebu City was very difficult on my part. I’m not used of eating carenderia food. While I was in Davao, I was spoiled with my Lola’s home-cooked meals and food from Davao’s best restaurants. I was not prepared in the sudden change of my lifestyle.
Among those things I miss about Davao are the numerous Inasal restaurants found in the downtown area. Mang Inasal, Penongs, and Banoks among others. Last night, we were able to come across Cebu’s barbeque haven. We didn’t realize that such place lies a few blocks away from our building.

My Amazing Google Experience in Panglao, Bohol
April 11, 2008 | Author: Winston | Filed under: Travel
Visited 519 times, 2 so far today
A couple of weeks ago, my friends and I had a few days vacation at Panglao, Bohol. The resort where we stayed was very remote that we have to walk a kilometer or more to get to the nearest convenience store.
During our last day in Panglao, our food, water and cellphone load supplies need to be replenished. Since everything sold within the resort are extremely expensive, we decided to look for a nearby convenience store. We went to Rona’s, a convenience store a kilometer away from our resort. I was wearing my white Google shirt when we left.
After we bought all the stuff we need from the convenience store, I decided to look for some place where I could reload some cellphone credits. I was lucky that there was a nearby reloading station just across Rona’s convenience store. In front of the relading station are motorcycle drivers waiting for some passengers.
When I passed by the drivers, I heard one of them say “Bay, website iyang t-shirt o” (Man, he has a website shirt).
Upon hearing his words, I could’t help myself but to smile. I never expected that someone from that kind of environment would recognize Google, not from a place where internet access is scarce and internet education is not a trend.

Panglao’s great! The kindness of the people too is a big plus in going to Bohol!
Actually, the lesson should be: Don’t judge the tricycle driver because he is not a book.
