It's my first time to wander around Cebu City on the grandest festival of the province of Cebu, Sinulog. I was not actually planning to go out from the corners of my house but then my schoolmate had invited me to enjoy a bit at Cebu Business Park to watch the Dragon Fireworks Display yesterday.

It was eight in the evening while I was walking along Talamban Highway -- correct me with the name of the place guys if I'm mistaken, wearing my VBS black shirt and my sporty basketball shorts to withdraw my DTS allowance in RCBC's ATM machine. I was with my friend Jay, an off-sem student of our school, a one of a kind board mate who always bears to go with me whenever I'd go and check my account.

Next stop, I was already at the bank which took us 7 minutes to walk from Highway 77. Getting excited to withdraw my money, I took my card out from its jacket and took for about 90% of my money from the ATM machine. After the joyous moment of receiving my money, I put my card back on my shorts and secured my money on my coin purse.
