Sulangan

Sulangan, is a small island just a few steps off a bay in Eastern Samar. A lot of patrons visit this rural church which is 4 hours away from Tacloban City. This church is what the locals term "sa-aran", meaning to pledge devotion for pleas to God. Others just come to give thanks for the blessings they receive.

Caught between the insurgence of transportation and prosperity of this meek town, this banka parks beneath the shade of the Sulangan bridge.
10 years ago, the bridge going to Sulangan Church didn't exist, it still is under construction, I heard my aunt say they had to cross this river on foot to say their prayers and offer their devotions to the Sulangan Church


the river beneath the Sulangan bridge is crystal clear...

by the way, nagkaChicken pox ako last week!!! haha, one day after posting in my blog na sana di magkachicken pox si donna, i got it. buti na lang, donna was there to take care of me. :) Thanks, yab.

Flashback

I'm pretty excited because tomorrow Donna's coming back to Manila na, it's been two weeks since I saw her. Her Pa and her bro had the pox for the past weeks too, and rumor has it, that sometimes, the pox could visit you twice. I certainly hope Donna doesn't get it again, other than she's reviewing for a major exam, she'll slim down if she gets sick. Wawa naman uyab ko.

Little Mermaid

One of Ursula's twisted wishes granted, those poor unfortunate souls...

When we passed by a town in Samar, I saw this portrait mounted on a wall. I used to see this picture from my Kongkong (grandfather) when I was a kid, I don't know where this picture is now, I probably took it and misplaced it. The source or the film probably got passed around? just in Region 8? Has anyone seen this elsewhere?

I don't know if this is an example of how hoaxes circulated before email came to our shores, or could this picture be true?
