THE UNEMPLOYED 6: Two Interviews and a Weekend in Antipolo+

The Black Madonna from Acapulco might be the guardian of the Tipolo tree but it was the divine boatman of the Visayas who annotated the agenda and a guidance note for a Bangkok workshop to nudge Vientiane in hosting a September forum as the Jakarta cooperation was finally forged in ink. 

But will there also be a good voyage to a validation in Oudumxay?


This however was not discussed during the first interview because apparently, the loud church bell of the Lady of Peace was thrown into a perfumed waterfall by angry villagers more than 500 years before the age of credit card payments and foreign exchanges, perhaps on the same day of the fiesta in Maligaya that is being curated by the Pinto Art Museum as an Italian-inspired lunch at Cafe Rizal.

Will there be space for migrants too and those who grow in Asia? 



This was not mentioned in the second interview where a 13-day consultancy arrangement emerged to usher a possible extended contract through the doors of 7 galleries into the arid bike trails and river crossings of Nueva Ecija.     



Honestly, I'm having second thoughts about the first interview because it is likely to not fit into what I want my next 6 years to be, like finally locating San Pedro Bautista's sanctuary beneath the church complex in San Francisco Del Monte after showering our Mother's Day celebrant with eternal love and blessings.

The second interview is most likely to happen which is my preference and if this will be the case, I can be among those who are eligible to board the spaceship at Ateneo's Church of the Gesu or guard the sun dial somewhere near the haunted halls of Col. Alejandro Melchor and Sen. Rafael Palma in UP-Diliman that will lase invading aliens.




Antipolo, Ateneo and UP-Diliman are unfinish businesses.

So we finally came, we saw, and we conquered carnivore breakfasts at Goodah and the SIDCOR Sunday Market, a dinner of milk bicho and barbecued fake meat in Binondo, and a big fat Greek lunch at Cyma.
