Hello everyone! How are you today? Well, I hope everything is fine and we are all safe all the time. Well today, I will share my journey for this year's Cebu Provincial Meet 2025 held on February 8-14,2025 in Naga City, Cebu in cooperation with Carcar, San Fernando, and Minglanilla. For this year our billeting quarter was in lower Tuyang, Minglanilla, Cebu. We departed from Tabogon around 8:00 AM. Just like last year I am still assigned as one of the kitchen personnel. At first, I was surprised that we would depart by Saturday. I am not prepared that's why I am hesitant to go with the team but because I am committed to this responsibility, I go with the team.
When we arrived at the place, we found it difficult to go directly to the billeting quarter since the road is one lane only. We will wait for the go signal when to travel near our billeting school. We exactly arrived at our billeting quarters around 2:00 in the afternoon. Upon arrival, we found out that our room for the kitchen was newly constructed. So, what we did was we cleaned it very well first to set up our kitchen.
After everything was set, we went to the market for our morning and afternoon menu for the second day. Our breakfast menu was boiled egg and hotdog. Our afternoon menu was chicken afritada, while our dinner for the day was fried fish and mangoes. We found difficulty in cooking our rice and vian since we prepared almost 200 people. We need to cook it using a big carajay and a big pot using firewood. It's not easy to cook that number of people so our rice doesn't cook well. Our rice in charge still adjusting how to cook rice in a big pot perfectly until he arrived at the right techniques.
Aside from the food we prepared for dinner, our host school prepared a program and provided a packed lunch to all coaches. On the other hand, our municipal councilor brings food for us too. He is the only counselor who supported us in this kind of event. We are so thankful to him for his commitment to serving his fellowmen.
That's all for today and see you in my next blog.
