First Time Riding a Ship — Going Back to Cebu!

Just want to share a little experience from my recent work trip. I’m on my way back to our main office in Cebu IT Park, coming from one of our satellite offices. And guess what? It’s my first time riding a ship!
There’s been a lot of “firsts” ever since I started this job. Funny thing is, I was actually skeptical at first when I saw the IT Helpdesk job post but I just had this feeling I shouldn’t pass up the opportunity. I’ll save that story for another day, but for now, I just wanna talk about my experience on the ship.
I was seriously amazed when I saw the ship in person. I didn’t expect it to be that big! Like, ang laki niya talaga. I’ve never been on one before, so I was just looking around the whole time like a kid on a field trip. Hahahaha!
And here’s the fun part...
I GOT LOST INSIDE THE SHIP 😂So I stepped out of my cabin because I wanted to see the CCLEX bridge (Cebu-Cordova Link Expressway). I’ve only seen photos of it online, so seeing it up close from the ship? Super worth it. I even took some snaps.
But after that, I tried to go back to my cabin and I couldn't find it. 😭
I swear, I was on the right floor already, but I just couldn’t remember which hallway to take. I was roaming around for like 20 to 30 minutes looking for the right door. It was starting to feel like I joined an escape room challenge HAHAHAHAH.
After thinking hard for a few minutes, I finally said “bahala na” and just tried all the passages on that floor… and boom! I finally found my cabin. Nakakatawa talaga. Who knew it would be harder to find a cabin than a hotel room?
I’m just really thankful for moments like this. It’s funny, memorable, and something I never thought I’d experience if I didn’t take the leap with this job. First time riding a ship First time getting lost inside.
