The beauty of Antulang


This is the place where I grew up. I have a lot of memories in this area particularly in this sea and that native boat. We have to cross this area every weekend when I was in High School in order for us to get a tricycle and reached town where I was studying. Actually, My sister with 10 other relatives were renting a house in the town to avoid such hassle each day. As early as High School, we learned a lot in life. Name it all...hehehehe! but, it was a very fun and exciting journey since we have a very loving, caring and supportive Parents.

Another funny experienced here is that there are Fridays that we were home early and we don't have anyone who will picked us up. So, by combining our voice and effort, we will be shouting our famous line in our dialect " tundae me". Tunda means bringing someone on the next island by boat. And as soon as anyone will hear us, they will also shout back and after few minutes, we will be delighted to see this "bangka" coming on our way! hehehe...How easy life those times if we have cellphones! hehehehe!

Are you going to ask me if I have tried having an accident by this means of transportation? hehehe...YES! It was very windy and in the middle of this sea, big waves strikes us and we can't control for all the water to get in this little boat and all of a sudden, I realized I was in the water already,hehehe..It was very scary but we managed to swim. No one was hurt that time but I heard a lot of crying! hehehe!
