This Way to the Cemetery of Negativism...

It’s not my first time to visit Camp John Hay. In fact, my parents frequently went there since my mom was reviewing for the Nursing Board Exams. My uncle also worked in Baguio. Unfortunately, he was one of those Hyatt Hotel staff who died during the terrifying 1990 Earthquake. We used to go to Camp John Hay for picnic purposes. It took a while though before we went back. My father landed a radio job there before he reached his early retirement.

Enter the Cemetery of Negativism

It was my first time to explore Camp John Hay on my own. I went there alone primarily to visit a cemetery i saw from Ferdz’ blog. It is the Pet Cemetery or the Cemetery of Negativism.

WHY DIDENT I?!

The Cemetery of Negativism (or Pet Cemetery… not Pet Society LOL) is a part of the John Hay Historical Core. This symbolic cemetery was founded by Major John Hightower. It aims to encourage all its vistors to bury the banes of productivity in clever epitaphs. Take a look at some of the epitaphs below:

  1. INTERESTING!! I’ve been to Camp John Hay many times but I didn’t know that the cemetery of negativism was located in the place. But I’ve heard about it years ago. I’ll visit the place if time permits. :)

  2. Madami din akong pictures dyan! Haha from last year pa, hindi ko pa rin napopost.
