Educational Tour 2013
We took the first flight out to Manila on the 14th of March. We arrived two hours before our flight schedule as instructed. After the rituals were done before we could sit in the departure area, we finally did. And again, we waited till twilight has arrived in that contemptible sitting area. By the time the employee called in our flight, we hurriedly rushed to the airplane, which finally took its place. When there, of course us first-timers, were pretty excited but were not really that ostentatious. As for me, I felt the same way but did not take the time to show it. Apart from that excitement, I had the worst sit ever in the history of travelling, especially for me. Inspite the terrible sit I had, I enjoyed my flight.
Upon arriving at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport, we took this bus that would take us to the arrival area. When there, our tour coordinator, sir Bong, and the rest of us whose flight were scheduled earlier that week were waiting. When we finally came out of the airport, sir Bong led us to our tour bus which was already parked outside. He formally introduced himself, sir Dandy, our tour guide, and the drivers who will be with us for the rest of the tour.
Our day started with a breakfast, at MJ’s Café, which was quite a mouthful before we took off for Palafox Associates, a well-known firm in Makati. Then, we went off to LGU Makati, in which the ones in-charge of the Makati Green Urban Design Center and the Makati City Planning, gave lectures and entertained questions subsequent to the lecture. After, despite the heavy rain, we still managed to arrive at the bus and lunch at Lunch Masuki, which again served a mouthful meal. Next stop was Star City. This I could not forget, especially the first ride we rode after the horror booth in which we pointlessly scream about nothing, the Dragon Boat. I could say it was the ride of my life, but my knees were shaking, I felt weak, and a little loopy after. But I still managed to stand up and run around

    My heart sank to my stomach, as I hated to fly on planes. I couldn’t even fathom the thought that I was stuck on this plane forever. I rubbed my hand along the smooth armrest and gripped the end as tightly as I could, hoping this was all a dream. Unfortunately, it was not.…

    “Passengers flying Flight QF563, your gate is now open for boarding”, I peacefully sipped what remained of my coffee and waited for Joshua to finish his bacon and egg roll. Shortly after, we began to make our way to our designated gate. The smell of low-priced takeout food filled the air and couldn’t help, but leave me feeling overly excited. My son and I navigated our way through the clustered crowds of other keen travellers, following the signs above our heads as well as the announcements that were played through the speakers at the airport.…

    We asked ourselves and each other. Wandering through the crowd, we realized and came to the conclusion that we had arrived at a concert. As the music delighted us for about 20 minutes, we realized we still had to go the CN Tower, so we headed toward the exit and continued our journey. The CN Tower appeared to be nearby because it was so tall, but in reality it was a long way to go for us. By the time we had arrived CN Tower it was about 6 o’clock. We had finally arrived to our destination! Unfortunately, we didn’t get to go inside because the waiting was about 2-3 hours. We didn’t want to wait that long, and since we were so tired we sat down and took a…

    On my latest flight home I had the aisle seat. The gentleman in the row in front of me (but on the opposite side) was working on a presentation about successful selling of investments. How do I know this? Because he was working on a computer screen that was large enough to need its own seat. I spent the next half hour or so reading my book and his presentation.…

    “Please fasten your seat belt sir.” The voice of the flight steward woke me back from my reverie. After what seemed like thousands of years, finally I was taking a long break from my official and marital stress. I just couldn’t stop day dreaming about how perfect my vacation in Hawaii would be! As my flight took off, the excitement grew even further to feel the warm, sandy beaches sparkling in the sun, the sweet smelling pine trees and the luscious aroma of Pena Coladas, which would be welcoming me in a short while. I was so glad to leave back my chaotic life, which had made a person as carefree as me stress out at the drop of a hat, that all the fuss and the children whining around me just didn’t seem to matter at all.…

    “Hello? Where are you now? Please hurry, the bus is about to leave!” The voice on the other end of the line seemed vexed but obviously tried to keep her cool. I jumped out of the train at Cubao when I got that phone call, wishing to have wings to fly to the station where our bus to Cagayan Valley was. I had an erroneous information about the time of departure (11:30pm instead of 11:00pm) thus left me only 5 minutes to catch the long-awaited trip to the place which stories in my elementary history books had amazed me most - IFUGAO.…

    Last March 3, 2011, at almost 8 AM in my wristwatch, we departed from TIP QC campus to start our most awaited trip at the following itineraries: MMDA traffic monitoring Makati City, Bayantel Telecommunications and Falcon Crest Campsite at Norzagaray, Bulacan. At our first destination MMDA, we’ve got to see the traffic monitoring operation of MMDA, where many of Metro Manila’s road by installing CCTV cameras at Metro Manilas road. We also got to see the operating room for the Traffic light controllers. We also went to Bayan Telecommunications Inc. at Roosevelt Ave., Quezon City. Bayantel is one of the leading telecommunications companies for voice, Internet and data in the Philippines. The one that orient us was a graduate of MAPUA, he’s been working at Bayantel for 3 years. He told us about the NOC (Network Operation Center) of Bayantel. They are the ones that fixing the problems of Bayantel users. And after Bayantel, the next and last destination was at Falcon Crest Campsite at Norzagaray, Bulacan. It took us an hour to reach our destination, and at the time our tour guide, Mr. Mar, tells us many trivia behind the places that we’re passing through. He also tells us stories and jokes for us to avoid boredom. Until we reached Falcon Crest Campsite, we went out from the bus to eat our lunch. And immediately after lunch, one of the staff of Falcon Crest orient us on how to use the gadgets for wall climbing, rappelling and even in zip line. They were very strict about safety and they did explain to us the importance of using proper attire and gadgets when climbing the wall and rappelling. And after the orientation, we were divided in many groups. We did the wall climbing, rappelling, zip line and cargonet. After trying those slight risky activities (for me), we started our team building, still in groups. Until the time we’d done the games, I really had fun. I really enjoyed the tour because I never thought that I will ever do that. I’m afraid in…
