Marinated Life, Seasoned Experiences

Ive been here at Puerto Princesa before. This is actually my second visit on the city. While i was walking along the streets of Puerto, I saw Circon and I remember it, thats the place we stayed during my first visit. We proceeded directly to our satellite office. Puerto didnt change much, maganda pa din at malinis ang ciudad. Bench is still there, ito yung familiar kong landmark.  Dalawa na ang Jollibee sa puerto. I heard magkakaron na din ng McDo which is my favorite among the two.

I still have the energy to fix their computers. I practically fixed 2 sets, ahhh, ang galing ko talaga!! Haha, just kiddin. I thought bawi na ang region sa pagpapadala sa kin knowing that di naman talaga fixing the computer and sadya ko. We are here to conduct a training in one of our special projects. But i guess, once you have the God given talent, you just simply share it and use it wherever and whenever you need it.

Its almost 3 pm when i finished the job of fixing. We decided to drop by at Bakers Hill. Mas maganda na sya ngayon ah. And it was covered with restaurants na unlike before, i enjoyed their pizza. I am a Pizza man remember? haha, then bought their delicious hopia for pasalubong.

Six PM when we decided to check in at Princess Hotel. Fully booked na yung usual aircon rooms nila, so we settled for a much cheaper room.  I even actually changed my supposed room and added 100 pesos kasi masyadong madilim at walang ventilation yung una kong nireserve.  Ok na din sana, but then found out madilim pa din. Ganun siguro talaga ang ilaw nila. With broken window, pumapasok yung lamok sa room ko so nagpabili ako ng katol while im seated sa medyo maruming chair and  table  while using my computer. My co-worker who is like a friend already felt uncomfortable. Di ko sya masisisi kasi madilim, barado ang CR, malamok yung hotel. The 5th time na nilapitan nya ko, i knew na nag-mamakaawa na sya na lumipat na kami though di nya masabi sa kin directly.

But when i heard na barado ang CR, nag-isip na ko, kelangan naming kausapin ang manager o kaya umalis sa lugar na yun. I negotiated pa nga, sabi ko kahit isang gabi lang sa mas mahal na room where walang lamok at medyo maliwanag. Di pumayag yung manager, di daw pede kasi yun ang price. I asked the manager to just try be considerate na lang kasi since matutulog lang naman kami ng ilang oras. In the end, kinuha ko yung bayad namin, minus 100 peso each for the abala.

Then we packed up, proceeded again sa satellite office. Upon seeing the bright light of the office, sabi ko “may tao pa”. Its almost 8 pm then. And, we were thankful. Kasi may inabot kami, kung wala malaking abala na naman gagawin namin.

As we were exchanging our anxieties and frustration sa hotel, my co worker told me that she was uncomfortable because she knew that there is something strange about the hotel.  The hotel is an old wooden house located sa pinakadulo ng place. She told me, that she felt something, and that something you know is a creepy something . Sabi ko, “ako din naman, hindi maganda yung vibration ko sa hotel”.

Then, she told me, that meron syang third eye. she continued, back when im negotiating with the manager at iniwan ko sya pansamantala sa room , sabi niya “may nakita akong shadow, dalawang beses” . It creeped me out. Coz, i know, she is telling the truth.

Masyado lang positive ang acceptance ko kaya tinatalo nya ang ano mang negative energies sa room na yun.

And yes, we are definitely not coming sa hotel na yun, at least dun sa old house na yun. Creepy, that old house has something you cant explain.

But you know what? That turned to be a blessing in disguise cause after that stories, we end up on a nice cool savvy hotel . Oh, the first thing i saw the facade of Skylight Hotel, i felt “wow”. And wait till you the pic below. Hay, guminhawa pakiramdam namin. Parang sigh of  relief….thank you, thank you……ill never forget about it, this thing, this happening. Thank you God for giving us an angel to save us from hell.
