Hi everyone! I am very sorry for leaving this blog deserted for quite a while to give way to my much-awaited vacation in Cagayan de Oro City. Visiting CdO has been in our calendar for a few months already. It was not actually a grand vacation because hubby was left behind at home but nevertheless Bella, Macky and the rest of the family including me had a wonderful and memorable sojourn in Cagayan de Oro.

I could not compress in one post what I have experienced in my two weeks stay in CdO but I will be sharing it to you one by one in my future posts. My long vacation includes shopping, decorating and cooking for Yoshi's birthday party, a pool party, a college reunion party, dinners and lunches with family and friends and of course party and wandering at my beloved Alma Mater during the Xavier University Festival Days.

Another unforgettable part of my visit during Xavier Days was the chance to have a long bonding time with one of college best friends in her Siomai Station at the Soccer field inside the University. Of course, it gives me an access to eat unlimited siomai. I will make a special blog post about Ludy's Siomai in my foodie blog later.

It really feels great to be visiting my Alma Mater and enjoying its festivities after 12 long years. I saw a lot of improvement especially on its physical structure. Another thing that surprised me was the way the students get in and out the University because of their security and ID system.
Looks like scanning for an MRT ride.LOL |
The students will have to scan their ID before they can get inside the
campus and scan again before they can go out. There was this big TV
screen that flashes the face, the name and ID number of everyone who
scans. Hi -tech eh? Lol!
That's all for now friends. Thank you for keeping this blog alive for the past few days. I will be returning the favor real soon.

Uy! Finally at may kuento na tungkol sa bakasyon mo Rovz. I have been long waiting for this even before I left for Zambo.
Good for yah, you had the chance to bond with old friends. I never got the opportunity to go visit my Alma Mater here because of my hectic schedules. But hopefully, one day, I will. Kala mo naman ang layo ng location ng school ko, LOL!
Uy ha! Sobrang hi tech nga ng ID system nila. I wonder if other schools in the country do it the same way. Matagal na akong di estudyante eh, hahaha! I feel ancient, LOL!
Ancient ka na? Panu na lang ako? Hehehe... Unang bugso pa lang ng kwento ito sis... There's more to come. Hanap pa lang ng time...
Thanks for dropping by...
wow! Ang high tech na nga talaga ng ID system nila dyan!
