Uncomfortable Hot Rainy Season

The day is gloomy and seems I won't be seeing the sun again. Although July is already the start of the rainy season here in the Philippines but there are several (if not many) occasions that the sun is up and so intense. Since I arrived last week, I've been sweating a lot and the bad thing is that it is so sticky that you have to take a shower more often than the usual. It is indeed a very uncomfortable and squawking hot rainy season here.
And so the hunt and the pursue of looking for angry birds items and stuff is in a hot pursuit also. Never expected the scarcity of the said stuff in the city of Cebu. There have been less choices to get and if there is, the price is quite unreasonable as well. I was thinking on the other hand that it might be because this kind of collectibles is not yet popular even though the games are played by most people. In fact a blogger just told me a few weeks back that her mom who is on her fifty-ish already is also having a great time with Angry Birds.

We might be having the design above for our son's first b-day and as of the moment we still don't have the character stuff around it. Two more stores to drop by and see if they have some available Angry Birds characters. Wish us luck...!

I Found Wiggy's Beach Resort

On the day that I arrived at Mactan Cebu International Airport we headed up north of Cebu and along the way I found something interesting. Despite venturing into a three week long vacation I am still thinking off what will happen in the world of Adgitize come first of July. There will be changes in the earning potential with Adgitize, though it is minimal but it will drastically impact the publisher in general.


Anyhow, going back to the stuff I saw along our trip north. I saw a billboard that says, "Wiggy's Beach Resort" and it immediately struck my mind one blogger and Adgitize member named Wiggy of Wiggy's World. The only thing is, I haven't get a picture of the signage since it was fast when we pass by the area and there's no chance of getting back for it is getting dark. And we don't want to be on travelling on the road at night, it's hard if you break down in the middle of no where and strange place. But I was able to get a snapshot of it the second time around I pass by the place. I will be posting the picture soon when time permits me to upload it. You know, it's hard to be on the internet when you are on vacation. hehe.

The Long Flight to Cebu

The long flight (almost 10 hours) going to Cebu, Philippines made me busy watching two full movies. I watched Johnny Depp's Rango and had a great rest in between watching the other movie of Matt Damon's The Adjustment Bureau. I would say that it's not that good comparing to his other action movies but it's not that bad as well. What attracts me the most of the movie is the parting words or the last lines over the background voice that goes like this...

"Most people live life on the path we set for them. Too afraid to explore any other but once in a while people like you come along and knock down all the obstacles we put in your way. People who realize free will is a gift, you'll never know how to use until you fight for it".

Don't ever think that I memorized those lines cause I am not good at it anymore and it is quite long for me to handle. So, I wrote it down in my phone like what an SMS is and that it didn't give me a hard time writing down the whole 57 words.
