i was already talking about el nido when i should have blogged first about my escapades in going to palawan to attend the Government Association of Certified Public Accountants (GACPA) 30th Annual National Convention.
anyway, when i arrived at the Centennial Airport, i found my colleagues already waiting in line at the check-in counter. we pooled our tickets so as to get more baggage allocation for the souvenir programs that the organizers were bringing.
at the plane, we began to start napping after the stewardess served us with snacks. me and my officemate/seatmate didn't even bother to drink our coffee as we were determined to catch sleep for the duration of the flight considering that we barely slept the night before for some unreasonable reasons.
after a few minutes, we were awaken by the shaking of the plane. it was so strong that we grabbed the cups containing coffee and water so as not for it to fall. as a result, our hands holding that still hot coffee were smudged with and felt the burning sensation (hehe. yeah right, it's an overstatement..).
i admit i was nervous. although it was not my first time to experience air pockets, but knowing that there was a typhoon at that time, i closed my eyes and swore i would never ride a plane again should there be bad weather. my seatmate noticed i was somewhat worried already. she got worried too.
to make the story short, we arrived at puerto princesa safe and sound. and the adventure continues..
