Cebu Bloggers Society turns 3

Last February 21, 2009, I joined Cebu Bloggers Society, then just a ‘growing’ group of bloggers in Cebu. It was an overwhelming experience meeting the other bloggers of Cebu; it was like meeting a new family. I remembered it well, a meeting done at Enovlink — my first meeting. I thank again Mark & Vanjohnn for persuading me to come and join the group. And I just did.

Today marks my 2nd year as a Cebu Bloggers Society member. My 2 years were filled with fun and intriguing moments. I met new and amazing friends for keeps. Looking back, I actually miss the original people I bonded with when I was a newbie. Where are you now?

Anyways, CBS has evolved into a bigger and more serious organization now. I’m happy to see it grow and reach out to the bigger community. The CBS @ 3 Anniversary party in PAGCOR, Casino Filipino Parkmall Satellite Branch last Saturday, was quite simple yet successful. Even with just a quite few old faces and a handful of new, we still had fun. The bonding that came after the party was also great, getting to bond with old friends once again. Brush aside awkward moments, that night was a good one.

Congratulations CBS. And to me for my 2nd year. I look forward to more years in CBS and to contribute to its betterment.

Special thanks to Mr. Renato Z. Osmeña, Jr., Casino Filipino Parkmall Satellite Branch manager, and to Holister, Inc. for the food and venue. Photo credit to Vince Delicano.

I Cast My Vote: Philippine Blog Awards 2009 Bloggers’ Choice Special Award (Visayas)

If I were to choose between voting for my blog, The Extraordinary Kiddo, and voting for another blog, then I’d probably vote… hmmm, let me think first. Hahaha.

First of all, it’s great knowing I’m part of the long line of nominees for the Philippine Blog Awards 2009 Bloggers’ Choice Special Award for Visayas. Together with me are some friends and co-Cebu Bloggers Society members (like Mikyu, Aika, Kristine Roa and Jayr). My classmate’s boyfriend is also one of the nominees.

But where will my vote befall? Should I go narcissus-style and vote for me and only me or should I cast my vote on a blog deserving to be branded Bloggers’ Choice?

…drum roll! :cool: Continue reading

Sumilon Bluewater, Not Just Your Ordinary Getaway

There lies an island on the south of Cebu that holds such a simple yet stunning beauty that would surely mesmerize the eye that sees it. Sitting on tranquil and life-filled waters, the flora-abundant Sumilon island is one of Cebu’s well-kept treasures and has remained such through time. On the first day of August 2009, 35 bloggers from Cebu were invited to have the time of their lives at the scenic Sumilon Bluewater Island Resort.

What Makes Sumilon Island Extraordinary?

Sumilon Island

A wide stretch of white sand, a continuously shifting wind-strewn sandbar, a mangrove lagoon, a number of well-preserved dive spots, a diverse community of sea life, an abundance of trees, a crystal clear surrounding blue water and the natural calmness of nature, that’s what you get in the island of Sumilon.

Located 125 kilometers from Cebu City, Sumilon Island is worth the long trip down the winding and historical road of Cebu South. A stunning 24 hectares compose the island and it has been recognized as the very first fish sanctuary in the country. Such protection of Sumilon’s aquatic wildlife made it possible for divers to spot a variety of marine species including black tip sharks.
