Hi guys! It is me, Teresa 👋. How was your Holy week and where did you guys spent your long weekend? Is there any leftover Benignit? Benegnet? Binegnet? in your area? HAHAHA 😂 Well in my case, I spent my long weekend at our lovely province in Bohol and luckily I was able to ate the “seasonal / favorite food” during Holy week, the “BENIGNET / BENEGNET / BINIGNIT / BINEGNET” I’m really confused as to what’s the proper spelling for this one. Hahaha! Comment down below if you know and kindly include its English term too cause honestly, I have no idea. Hahahuhu! Hopefully, you guys enjoyed your long weekend like I did 😁.

Anyway, it has been awhile since I posted a blog so for today’s vedyow 🎬, I will be sharing our first-ever local trip, to Bantayan Island with my favorite headache / reliever, my constant. 😊

A little background about our relationship is that we went to the same school during college in Bohol. I took up Business Administration (BSBA-FM) while he took Information Technology (BS-IT). It was in the middle of 2nd semester in my second year while he is a third year student when we got to know each other but WITHOUT the face to face interaction. It all started with a single wrong sent message. He’s an active college officer back when we were in college. One time, he borrowed the phone of my classmate who’s also a college officer and asked for a number of another college officer whose name is also, “TERESA” (“what a beautiful, lovely and COMMON name” HAHAHA) but unfortunately, mistakenly, unexpectedly and other -ly he texted the wrong Teresa. BUT, he luckily found his “the one” Teresa (uwu) HAHAHA weeew 😍! So, yeah that’s how we collided. We started as a text mate. The weird and funny thing about us is that we haven’t seen each other for almost a month right after knowing each other thru text. We should often see each other in campus since our school is not even that big, but we haven’t. HAHAHAHA! Anyway to make the story short, he courted me when I’m in my Third year college and finally said yes right after he graduated.

P.S. I LOVE MY NAME EVEN THOUGH IT’S VERY COMMON, BUT I STILL LOVE IT VERY MUCH

PLANNING

Travelling either local or international is everyone’s dream. They said that travelling together will let you know more of yourself or even as a couple or as an individual travelling alone. Honestly, we’ve been planning or wanting for this since 2019 after we both got a job. But because of other priorities and here comes the pandemic, we decided to just set this aside. It’s really been a while; imagine, it’s been 3 years already (leftover-over-over travel HAHAHA). Truly life is full of surprises and unexpected things. But, the fact that we still believe that we will be able to travel one day remained within us, never disappeared, it’s just a matter of when. We never rush things, he never rushes things and that’s one thing that I’m very proud of. Meeting someone who’s very considerate and respect all my decisions in life; not just as her girlfriend but also as a daughter and as women.

Last April 2022, finally, finally and finally we’ve got a chance to finally finally finally travel together. This travel was supposed to be our 4th anniversary celebration but since our actual anniversary date was a working day, we decided to advance the celebration because --- I don’t have VL (vacation leave) at work yet. HAHAHA! But yeah, we cannot risk our work days, still priorities over wants. He need money, I need money, we need money. HAHAHA! The reasons why we chose Bantayan Island are (1) because we both love beach even though I’m not that good at swimming (pacute-cute lang, ganern) HAHAHA! (2) I kept seeing FB posts of how beautiful Bantayan is and (3) because of the movie “Camp Sawi”.

Like what I’ve said earlier, we’ve been planning or wanting to visit this place since then but we never got the chance to prepare because we really don’t know when we will be able to visit the place. So, the proper planning or preparation started in the middle / end of February this year. When one of my boyfriend’s colleagues visited Bantayan, we asked reviews and we were referred to a tour guide with a promo package (3 days and 3 nights). At first, I’m in doubt because Jessa suggested that it’s better if we go there without a tour guide so we can take much of our time and enjoy the place. Seeing her blog (Part 1 and Part 2) the place is so refreshing and too beautiful for us not to enjoy and try it out. So now we got 2 options, either we avail the promo package or not --- which we think we’ll be having a little difficulty since we both are new to the place. We end up choosing the option 1 and below is the itinerary.
