I received an email from a friend about the summer event posted above that would be happening starting today at Isla sa Bantayan. Thought its simultaneously held in Holy Week, It is expected to draw crowd from all parts of the country, even aliens.
Others say, especially those that came from there, Bantayan Island could be a substitute of Boracay that is famous of its white sand beaches. Bantayan Island has these qualities that Boracay does. Long white-sanded shoreline and nice accomodation of resorts. I have never witnessed these qualities yet and I will be expriencing that tomorrow.
I will be going there by tomorrow for a skim session with my friends. I will be spending it a sort of a little vacation, unwind, while observing the traditions of holy week reflections. Its my first time to go there and I'l see what it brings.
Its the time of the year to pause for a while to do reflections. Just do your routine as part of the Catholic Nation. Had a reflective holy weekend!
Registration will be from December 2, 2008 to December 15, 2009(Take note of the inclusive dates, its enough for you to find schedule to register at you most comfortable time) at the Office of the Election of the district/city/municipality where the you reside. This include, applications for registration, transfer of registration records, reactivation and changes/corrections of entries in the registration records/inclusion of registration records/reinstatement of name in the list of voters.
In my own personal view of this activity, I guess it'll be better than the last Registration Period since this time it is more on luxury of time. I remember the time when I have my Registration in Lapu-Lapu City, where system is poorly implemented that may encourage legal age citizens not to register because of variations of arising personal concerns and interests. I hope it wont be the same again. Ill crossed my fingers.
Anyways Lets support this event and just enjoy with the tradition!
Registration forms are available online here
