Making Fun of Each Other

While DH was checking his social media, he came across my DN post about our island. I guessed he read it and ask me what is PAC-TOY. My initial reaction was "what?" Then he spelled it for me. "P-O-C-T-O-Y." I said, "it's POOKTOY, like BOOK, it's a town in my island." And he came back with, "It's not my fault your people doesn't not know how to spell." And I answered back with, "well it's not my fault your people doesn't know how to pronounce." hahaha

Anyway, here is the video he saw, and read the title I guessed because he can't understand tagalog language and the people in this video was speaking tagalog, except for a few second from one lady.

He also continue asking if we visited this beach. However, we visited the island thirteen years ago. A lot of -ism moved in since then. What -ism he asked. All the -ism that makes a place communist I answered. He started laughing because he said TOURISM is not bad. Yes, it depends whose point of view you are trying to look at.

I am proud on how quiet my province was before I left. Now a days, I don't have good words to say about it. I hate SOCIALISM, and that word is very popular over there.

Visit Where I Came From

I actually never been there before. I left the island very early on and the construction of this resort did not started until the late 1990's. When we (my family) visit in 2001 a typhoon just passed and it was left ruined.

I guessed the owner got a loan and rebuild from the ruins. A little pricey for my taste, but if you like secluded and quiet place this is the place to go. Watching the videos made me home sick. I miss the ocean, the beach and the warm temperature. I want to go home...:(
