Writing the Wrong

I have to apologize for not writing for almost two months. It wasn't for lack of something to write; it was more like for the confusion of how to categorize what I wanted to write. So much has happened in the last 54 days:

September
- I got a new camera (Canon PowerShot D10) - it's WATERPROOF up to 10m or 33ft and it looks like a tiny submarine.
- My cousin's 6-month-old baby died; the medical term is "intususception" or the incidence of the small intestine going into the big intestine and causing a blockage in the digestive system.

October
- I handled a school tour for Lourdes College; just around the city but it was a very interesting experience.
- The guides of GAMA (Giya Amihanag Mindanao Association) went on more familiarity tours of Cagayan de Oro City; we "discovered" where the first settlement may have been located; what a sight!
- The grandmother of my cousins passed away and her body was transported from the US to Agusan Canyon, Manolo Fortich where she was laid to rest, as was her dying wish.
- I was invited to offer tours at a national convention held in Cagayan de Oro; it was good experience for future conventions.
- After the convention, I went to the mall to unwind and chanced upon an exhibit for DOST, where my alma mater (Philippine Science High School - Diliman Campus) had a booth.
- My brother-in-law got married at a Mass Wedding held for the Fiesta of St. Jude Thaddeus (Damilag, Manolo Fortich).
- On October 28, 2010, St. Jude Thaddeus Chapel was proclaimed a new Sub-Parish! Our priest is Father Bobby Cena and he will be with us until March 2012.

It shouldn't have been a problem, if I were the kind of person who would just write and not categorize. But I'm not, and I finally came to a point when I decided to do what another blogger I know did: she started several blogs. So, later this month, WATCH OUT/ABANGAN! I'll be announcing the birth of a new blog, one which will talk mostly about my travels and the places I've been to -- for work and on our days off. This one "Life in the Bukids" will talk about family and life in the bukid of Bukidnon.

It's all a work in progress..
