Another Weekend in Palawan
The last time I visited Palawan before this trip was with officemates December last year. The destination was Puerto Princesa. Everything was so easy in the province’s capital. Walk, drive, boat, dock and then enjoy. We had a blast. That’s why when our company treated us to another trip to Palawan, I felt like saying “no” was a criminal offense. As if I would refuse an all-expense paid trip. Kahit dyan lang yan sa Malabon, basta libre, bring it on.
This time was a lot different, though. Coron offers not just a place of wonder but a place of wonder which challenges your strength, determination and sanity. Coron offers an adventure — the type that makes you yell “oh shit” in utter exhaustion and worrying while on journey. But once you’re at the destination, you yell a louder “oh shit,” this time your jaws touching the ground involuntarily.
Yes, it was tiring. After so many trekking and snorkelling, I felt like I was raped by 71 Cucumber men. Muscles that I didn’t even know I had suddenly started making its presence felt by aching like hell. But like I said, no muscle aches enough for an experience that is more enjoyable than my first sex. And mind you, my first was so very enjoyable.
Coron is sooo beyond magnificent. When I was there it felt like not admiring the place was against the laws of God.
We climbed Mt. Tapyas, swam across the Twin Lagoons, plunged into Barracuda Lake, pretended to be mermaids in Kayangan Lake, witnessed marine animals feast on my tuna sandwich (haha) and so on. I know we missed a lot, thus I’m planning to come back.

Alright, of the many lakes and lagoons we visited, I don’t remember which one this is. But the water was sooo clear and sooo sea urchin-infested. Haha.
Next stop, El Nido. Hopefully before the year ends.

On May 31, 1985, tragedy struck when 41 tornadoes hit Canada and the US, leaving 76 people dead. At the same time, a doomed couple in the Philippines were having the best orgasms of their lives. Nine months (280 days) later, a healthy baby boy was brought into this world by normal delivery. That was exactly a week before Microsoft had its initial public offering.
Today, Yoshke Dimen resides independently in Mandaluyong City. He got a degree in Film from an overrated university in Diliman but is now pursuing a career in Social Media.
