Cebu City: Where Magellan Lost His Head (Literally)
In Cebu City we holed up in a hotel for 2 weeks, mainly to relax, while taking care of medical and dental checkups.
While here it has been extremely frustrating finding film for my 35mm Pentax K-1000 SLR and my old-school Yashica medium-format 120 camera, so I’ve shipped my anachronistic wares back to the barangay in Agusan del Sur. The rest of these blogs will probably be accented with so-so pics from my cellphone, an Asus V80. In its defense, the Asus is not too bad for a cellphone cam.
While here in Cebu City I finished my second draft of a book review for the TESOL Quarterly, and submitted it for peer review. Knock on wood, my critical review of “CALL Research Perspectives” will be my first scholarly publication. Knock on wood.
