This is where we find ourselves after a day's work (especially Friday's!) and drown ourselves in a pitcher of booze and Bailey's!

New place to hang-out every weekend if you come by here!

Whenever I think of looking for a good book to read or some research back in college, I consider the UP Visayas (University of the Philippines - Visayas) Library a first place to visit. Great books and "hard-to-find" books can be found here. In those times where Internet connection was still scarce and nowhere to be found, library can be the best place for research. There are also several library nooks in the city but I find this one user-friendly. Found it funny, it is now called UP School of Library and Information Studies.

What's with the last Sunday of January in Iloilo? Eclipse showing only to the city? A civil war, perhaps? Well, most of the city folks will answer no, and probably won't mind you about the question, but here, every last week of January --- preferably last Sunday of the month, Dinagyang celebration is on the hype!

Last two weeks ago, I visited the Bright Nebula Field. You can locate the B.N. Field in the school of Central Philippine University. Central; since it's located in the heart of country, and Bright Nebula; since it is encapsulated by lamp posts.

Long ago, Iloilo Airport flies domestically. Flying outside to other countries would make you link to Manila first for a connecting flight.

This happened during the semestral break here in our country. Semestral break may range from 2-3 weeks and having such a boring place, my friend asked me if we could go over Mount Junior in Guimaras Island. I asked him why the name. He told me that long ago, the property of the whole mountain was of his grandfather. Since time immemorial, trespassers would go inside the perimeter and build houses or resting places. It was then during his father's time they again claimed the area and to avoid confusion, it was supposed to be named after his grandfather but since it was his father that claimed, it was named Mount Junior.

Just like it's name, Central Philippine University (CPU) is located in the center point of the country. I don't know why it was named like that maybe because when the Americans came in the country on the first decades of the 20th century, they were already particular about the geographical location of the place --- where they wanted to put up a school for Filipinos.

One would love to go out on weekends after a very exhaustive week in the workplace. Some would suggest staying at home and watch TV, while others would approve a meander over a coffee shop, listen to good music, chill, or what have others called --- party.
