September 1, 2012
Hello, September!
With every end, there is always a new beginning. It’s time to say goodbye to wonderful August 2012 and say hello to a brand new September. Every time something ends, I can’t help but look back and recollect all the memories I’ve had. Now that August has already ended, I try to remember all the beautiful things that happened during the said month. As I write this post, there is so much happiness in my heart because I know the previous month was undeniably perfect! There were so many events, activities and experiences worth-remembering.
One of the most exciting and colorful festivals in the Philippines is Kadayawan. It is celebrated every month of August to give thanks for the bountiful blessings and harvests. For this year’s festival, I was able to witness the grand Pamulak sa Kadayawan!
For the first branch opening of Cafe France in Davao city, they organized a media brunch where bloggers, photographers and writers gathered to enjoy their delectable dishes. Thanks to the marketing team of this amazing cafe for inviting us! I attended the event with the Davao Bloggers.
Fun with Law School Friends
August allowed me to bond even more with my new found friends in law school. Thank you to the “no-class” days and long weekends! We were able to party all night long, get the right amount of sleep and rest from the stressful classes.
My food blog is no longer in hiatus. I started to bring it back to life last month. One of the major steps I took in updating it again was getting my own custom theme. The blog makeover is not yet complete but we’re getting there. Thanks to Sam for helping me in arranging every single thing at Chic Food Trips.
God knows how grateful I am for the wonderful and lovely August! I’m excited to live my September 2012 and the coming months. How about you? How would you rate the happiness you felt last month?
Seems you really had an awesome August :). Here's looking forward to a splendid September 🙂
I had a perfect one! 🙂
august is perfect.. i've got my payslip in it's highest record so far..lol
I forgot to include my whooping earnings for the previous month too. Highest for 2012! :p
Wow, it looks like you really had a fun and exciting August. I'm happy to note that you can still make time to have fun and unwind with friends despite your very toxic schedule.
I miss you!
I need to find some time for fun events ate Rovs. Otherwise, mababaliw ako. lol
august was awesome for me, my wife and our little kiddo… but september's going to be alot better, lots of celebrations including zachy's 7 month birthday… his mums 23rd birthday and so on…
thanks for sharing your experience in kadayawan.. i hope we could go to davao next year and enjoy the festivities..
cheers :))
OMG! September is going to be oh so perfect for you and the family. Wish you luck, Ron.
Visit next year's Kadayawan! The festival is getting better each year.
YOu're such a superwoman, Algene! Despite hurdling a hectic sked in the Law School, you're still able to attend to some social events and enjoy with your friends. And most of all, you still got the time to blog. Ikaw na! You already! Hahaha!
All these things keep me sane ate Lains. I have to keep up with blogging! This is my life 🙂
I have heard so much good raves about Davao, the place and the festivities. It's such a shame that my family and I get to travel elsewhere and never in my home country. I am going to add Davao in my must-visit places. Thanks for sharing the pictures in Davao!

Davao is a perfect place to be. And I'm happy that our local government is currently engaged in activities to improve the tourism industry of the city.
