Pasalubong

while doing a field work, other employees had already talked with the folks
for them to buy for fresh fish from the area.
I was about to write something else. I found out on my gallery that I only have pictures of the food I ordered from the coffee shop. It feels incomplete that I can't show how the cafe looks like.

That's when I accidentally clicked the "insert photo" button of the photo above. I just decided to make story out of it.

I took this picture during a field assignment. Anyway, not my assignment. It was my officemate's birthday party at the office so I had to attend that official business so she could have enough time to prepare for the food.

I even posted a status on my FB account that I will travel to Tortugas.

It's known fact among the people I know that I only bring enough money for the days expenses - fare and food - and extra fare just in case I chance upon an acquaintance at the same tricycle ride. Thus, in field work you would rarely see buying something as pasalubong. While the other employees enjoy buying for fresh fish, cashew nuts or honey when assigned to places where those are offered, I was busy making excuses why I don't.
