5 Reasons Why You Should Try Crystal Wave Hotel And Resort

Walking Wonderland
Let's just say it happens that you come to Nueva Ecija and you're looking for a place to stay for 2 or 3 day. Where would you stay?

Some may not know that Nueva Ecija, particularly Cabanatuan is one of the few places in the Philippines that gets really hot especially on summer although it is second only to Cagayan Valley in that regard. So its really reassuring to know that there are accommodations in Nueva Ecija which offer amenities that can really make your stay here as comfy as possible.

First in the list is the Crystal Wave Hotel and Resort which is in Talavera, Nueva Ecija. Talavera is only a few kilometers away from Cabanatuan City and paying for an XLT (suv-type jeepney) fare won't cost much.

5 PLACES TO VISIT IN BORACAY

Walking Wonderland
In the fourth week of August, 2012; me, my wife, and some of our friends went to Boracay to relax a bit.

Sure, the whole prepping issue and our travel from Nueva Ecija to Naia Terminal 3 are already tiring and we are surprised to know that traveling from Kalibu Airport to Boracay Port is even more tiresome.

Stress from traveling long distances is part of it and the absence thereof merely suggests its either you're too hyped about the travel or you just drank too much coffee--either of which really helps.


Anyway, once you're there, all of the sacrifices are worth it. I'm yet to write a full blog about my visit there but right now, I just want to share some particular places in Boracay that's worth seeing too. The list below goes in any order.

One Fine Day In Port Moresby

The Reporter's Assistant
The weather is perfect and it is neither hot nor windy today. The sun is up but cloudy skies kept the sun at bay.

As I looked at the window, I sensed a part of me rejoicing to a realization that today was Sunday. I was wondering what else  I should do today apart from making sure that my laundry was done and I had  enough food to last for the week.

I randomly grabbed a book from my collections and opened a page to start reading. But even before I get to relax my back on the bed, I heard kuya Levi's voice from outside calling out my name. That's when I remembered that I had agreed to go out with him and Wini today. Well, it didn't take long to prepare myself for this interesting day.

Sinigang na Hipon - Cabanatuan City Style

The distinctive taste of Sinigang na Hipon comes from
the mixture of local spices.
What is Sinigang na Hipon? It's actually a simple stew which main ingredient is Hipon or Shrimp. It's a Filipino main dish and is common to see in every household's table.

Sometimes, I consider it to be special because my wife only cooks it when the weather is cold or when we want a change in our daily menus. But frankly, I rarely see this served in special occasions like parties. Now, I wonder why? :)

The taste of the soup is somewhat a bit sour and chili, also you can distinguish the taste of the onion and tomatoes in it.

So, how to cook it?

Remembering ULZ Team and The Outdoor Fun at Juniban




There are so many things that money can buy,
and our experience in Juniban is not one of them.
- Hohenheim Meister

Two years ago, I was a part of something special... something I didn't imagine I could be a part with. I said special because for me, it was an experience like nothing else. I am a bit nostalgic about it and I simply can't express how I miss that place, the people I was with and the bosses that were always ready to understand us no matter what our difficulties are. ^_^

Yes, I am talking about the ULZ Team at Sykes Back Office Department that I have come to work with where my story has begun from the training days which continued later on at the floor. The every day experience is worth remembering--like savoring on a box of popcorn and each piece of which makes a distinct taste in my mouth. Each piece simply makes me smile to the thoughts of our faded laughters, hardships, devestating failures and unforgettable successes!
