now that I am just at home on a Saturday night, I recall the weekends that my family did not see me here. Hence, the tittle of the blog is: one month and one week.

So here's my list:

June 26 and 27, Saturday and Sunday, they say it was my post birthday celebration but it really wasn't like that at all. I was just with friends, Chona, Kuya Raphy, Kuya Vlad, Nikko and Direk Julius, at our house by the sea at Boljoon. It was all great food, swimming at the beach and wifi-ing at the town plaza.

July 3-4, Saturday and Sunday, the same 'Boljoon group' was supposed to go to Consolacion's talabahan. Unfortunately, Direk Julius and our audioman Bruce met a road accident, dawn of Saturday. So instead of being at the talabahan, we found ourselves taking turns in watching over the patients at the Cebu Community Hospital. Bruce was all Bruised, from lower face down to his legs, scars and blood was all over hime. Direk Julius was in a dextrose, and oxygen as he was having a hard time breathing, he also had bruises in his arms and hands. Funny scene was that, while I was alone in his ward watching over him, a student nurse came in and before waking him up, asked me if he was my dad.. haha but when she woke Direk up, i became irate, she patted him so strongly and rudely. I told Direk about the 'dad' thing and he forced a smile through his aching chest.. hehe I told him I don't like his rude student nurse. By Sunday, dextrose and oxygen was gone. While Direk was given discharging signals Sunday afternoon, Bruce was given discharge signals Monday yet. But they both got out of the hospital Monday morning for Direk and Monday afternoon for Bruce.

July 10, Saturday, GMA and Energizer's Night Race.. And once again, I was with the same people with the addition of some people. There was Annie, Cai and Honey who both work for Parkmall where the race was held, some other GMA people where there too.

July 16-18, Friday night, Saturday and Sunday, with the same 'Boljoon group' and some more additional friends, Randy Gorion, Ian Laroga and Moching Auxtero, I found my self in another out of town trip. We left the city Friday night and stayed at Chona's house with her sisters and nephew. This trip was all about the booze, Mantayupan waterfalls, beach again and the 'pang one time' silhouette photography by the beach, the super tasty 'adobo', the videoke and the sleep at the 'lapag' with the guys. It was all fun!! :D

July 24- 25, Saturday and Sunday. My last weekend out of the house. But this time, it wasn't just an out of Cebu city trip, I was actually in an island across Cebu, Bohol Island, it was. Sandugo Festival weekend, I was with Kuya Vlad and Nikko the whole time. Although we saw Direk Julius in the morning of Saturday as we borrowed his DSLR camera and used it for the whole two day trip. Three wasn't a crowd this time, it was a company. We went to Bohol Bee Farm for our organic Lunch, to the Kapuso Night where we met Direk Julius again and the rest of the Engineering Department of GMA Cebu. It rained while the show was on but rained harder as it was finishing off. I stayed with an office mate for the night only to return to Nikko's estate in the morning and in time for the engineering department's breakfast. Loboc river cruise we were off after breakfast and fixing of ourselves. Sandugo festival re-enactment with Vice President Jejomar Binay as their honorable guest. Before we head out for the pier to catch our boat trip back to the Island of Cebu.

So there, my one month and one week out of the house. In between and after which, my family has been and had been looking for me. So, the week after and until now, I have stayed home except, last night August 6 when I went out for the Kapuso Day and was with the same people again.

Hhmm, when and where will my next out of town be? Hopefully, one more for a local city and one for an out of the country trip. :D
