Cebu City, Front And Center!

It will be Sinulog in Cebu City soon. On the 3rd Sunday of January, 2008, Cebu City will celebrate the Feast of the Holy Child or the Feast of Santo Niño, the patron saint of Cebu City. The Sinulog will be celebrated for a week, a kind of tourism gimmick to showcase the surge of emotions that stem from a religious fervor which every Cebuano feels for his beloved Sto. Niño.

What can I say about Cebu City?

Cebu City was home. Now, I call another city home but I am not really at home in it. I guess you could say that I am like a leaf blowing in the wind. This morning as I scanned the news pages I came across many news items about Bob Dylan and I promptly made a website dedicated to this enigma. I remember when I was a young boy in Cagayan de Oro City and Bob Dylan seemed to have the right words even if his voice was raspy as though every song he sang was agony in musical terms.

a-frame, a-list, abaca, abacus, abattoir, abbey, abc, abdominal, abduction, aberdeen, abnormal, abortion, abracadabra, abrasive, absent-minded, absinthe, absolute, absorbent, abstract, absurd, abu-dhabi, abuse, abyss, acacia, academic, acadia, acapulco, accent, access, air, blog, bob-dylan, Ching’s Illusion,

Later in Cebu City, I would sing wildly and feel the nihilism in his words as I fancied myself the primal nihilist in the mold of Nietzche's superman. It was agony alright, but not so profound or earth-shaking. I tried to leave Cagayan de Oro City in my mind and made a place for myself in Cebu City and to a degree I considered Cebu City to be comfortable and safe enough to be called home.

Barangayan in Talisay

I missed the fast craft connection in Sibulan by a mere minutes which caused me to cool my heels for another hour. I had wanted to be in Cebu City early but this was not to be so. When I finally arrived, it was 8 pm and to my surprise, Rene Mercado was home and so were Roy, Bryan and Dominick. It was Barangayan in Talisay and Rene was producing the show. So, I was in for a night of loud music. And the music was loud as I was in front where the big speakers were blaring, trying to blow my eardrums as it tried to spook the decibel meter off the chart. The following day Toshi was expected to arrive from Cagayan de Oro City.

Here they are: Rails brought me to Seaside, Lotto, Yamashita gold, Nothing but FLowers. Lilliput's Flowers.

The following day, Toshi did arrive from Cagayan de Oro City with another Japanese businessman. So, it was a hectic day which included going to Agsungot and I got acquainted with the horses Dallas and Goliath again.

Cebu

Wonderful City, Cebu. Warm, magical, beguiling, smart, cunning, hospitable, Cebu City is the shipping hub of the Philippines. The great Spanish explorer Ferdinand Magellan found the Cebuano Hospitality to his liking especially after the local king Humabon decreed all Cebuanos should be baptized Catholics. Small wonder then that Cebu achieved a favored position among the Spanish Colonizers who not only brought Religion to the Philippine Islands but also Education and Learning. The University of San Carlos is proof of this.

Although born in Cebu City, I grew up in Cagayan de Oro City in the big island of Mindanao. While many Cebuanos have braved the seas to settile in Cagayan de Oro City, there are more Boholanos in Cagayan de Oro. Just on the southern tip of Cebu lies Dumaguete City on the island of Negros.

Visit Cebu. Visit the Philippines. Immerse yourself in Ching's World. Enjoy Dumaguete. Cebu is Ching's World.
