Byaheng paglayang nais mo (Tagalog spoken poetry)

Mga bessie mejo break muna tayo sa pag eenglish ha eto muna tayo at maiba muna tayo share ko lang to

Paglayang nais mo


Kung nais mo akong bitiwban pakiusap gawin mong dahan dahan
H'wag mo kong iwanan ng biglaan
Dahil hindi ko alam kung paano ko haharapin ang kinabukasan,
Hindi ko alam kung paano maiiwasang h'wag masaktan.

Mahal pakiusap,
H'wag mo muna akong bitiwan
H'wag mo muna akong iwanan ng tuluyan
Gawin nating laro ang lahat, umpisahan mo sa tagutaguan
Ako ang gawin mong taya
Magtago ka sa lugar kung saan alam mong mahirap kang makita
Maski doon man lang maisip kong hindi mo nga ako iniwan sadyang mahirap ka lang matagpuan
Kaya sige mahal magtago ka na 
Unti untiin mo ako sa iyong paglisan
Unti untiin mo hanggang sa hindi na kita maramdaman.

Mahal sa larong tagutaguan maaari mo ba akong piringan?
Hindi dahil para mahirapan
Kundi para di ko makita ang iyong pang iiwan.

Mahal maaari mo bang alisin ang amoy na bumabalot sa iyong pagkatao
Hindi dahil sa ayoko na ng amoy mo
Pero nais ko lang masanay na walang amoy ng pabango mo ang nasa paligid ko.

Sa aking pagtalikod maaari bang h'wag kang mag ingay?
Hindi dahil sa nabibingi ako
Kundi dahil ayokong marinig ang kaluskos na naghuhudyat ng paglayo mo sa kinatatayuan ko
Mahal umpisahan na natin,
Simulan na natin ang tagu taguang ako ang taya
Magbibilang ako hanggang lima
Isa...
Dalawa...
Tatlo...
......
Apat...
....
Lima!
Mahal malaya ka na
Palalayain na kita.

Thanks to my highschool classmate Jessica Rosales :)
Nakakainspired at for sure maraming matatamaang mga kabessie natin dito

Byaheng Vigan,Ilocos Sur



After my DIY escapade at Bangued, Abra I went to Vigan, Ilocos Sur.
It's a 2hrs ride from Bangued, Abra. There is a terminal of minibus going to Vigan near at Victoria Park/Old Gasoline Station.

From Bangued to Vigan MiniBus Fare PHP 80.00



"Crisologo Musem"
I love to explore some old things so I made a visit at Crisologo Museum in the first place.
The Minibus drop me off in the town center so, I rode a tricycle and it cost me a 10php to go there at Crisologo Museum. Just told the driver to drop you off at the crisologo museum and there you go.

Visiting Hours
PS: I am the first person to visit in that day hehe
The local there or the people there they called this museum Lumang Bahay / Old House.
You can take photos inside with your camera or cp with your selfie stick it's not prohibited inside.
But before you go inside you need to sign at their logbook and made some you know donation.
They say it's for maintaining the house/museum 20 - 50php I think its enough. 
It's an up and down / two floored old house museum located at Vigan, Ilocos.
The museum used to be the residence of Floro “Flor” Crisologo and his family. The Crisologo clan is one of the principal families of Vigan and Flor Crisologo was a congressman who worked towards the ratification of the Tobacco Law.

Facts: Did you know Floro Singsong Crisologo is the father of social security system?
Yeah, it's true.

But, On October 18, 1970, Crisologo was standing in a communion line in the Vigan Cathedral when a lone gunman entered and shot him in the head. The assassin escaped during the panic that ensued and the murder remains unsolved to this day, but it is generally believed to have been politically motivated.

Ok that's enough next I will show you next what's inside the house/museum
At the entrance

  
  
  
This is what you may see in the first room on the ground floor.
You may see also a lot of scrapbooks of clippings about the members of the Crisologo family starting from the 1950s.
As the museum also serves as a branch of the National Historical Institute, there are exhibits of documents and artifacts that relate to the geology, zoology, archeology, ethnography, and history of Vigan and of the entire Northern Luzon area.

   
   
   
to all of my readers/followers,  I wish you may visit this museum soon.


This is what you may see on the upper floor

I didn't take a picture of the label on the door.
I forgot for whom is this room.

Yeah this is where their kitchen located and is on the upper floor

This is their dining room sorry I love to take selfies



















This is all the pictures  I have inside the museum.
I have video recordings on what's  inside the house/museum and I will post it later the link here.
But the video is not that smooth. Due to I don't own a go pro and my cell phone is kinda heavy using with my selfie stick for recording so you know.
