Uncle Dodong, auntie Telly and our cousin ate Melka went here in Manila for a vacation for three days - Saturday, Sunday and Monday. Too bad ate Elda and her baby and ate Jerah were not able to come with them. I was excited to see the baby pa naman. Last Sunday, they visited in our house in Cavite with mama Dars, tita Joy, Owen, kuya Dongay and ate Jen. Auntie Willie and uncle Fely who are from Laguna also came. Too bad that Ivan’s not with them. (Oh yes, he’s my cousin I’m talking about that HD thing. haha. sshhhh…) When they arrived, papa’s in the store. We drove there to fetch him and closed the store for a day. That time, there’s an ukay-ukay at the court so auntie Telly, ate Melka, ate Jen and I dropped by. There were so nice things there. Ate Jen and I were treated by auntie Telly. Thanks, auntie. haha. Ate Melka, ate Jen and I bought shirts of the same style but just different color. haha. So crazy us. XD We had lunch at home, some kamustahan. The ladies had chismisan bonding, the guys had beer sessions. haha. And the three of us watched Charice’s amazing videos, had camwhorings too. haha.

Then after that, we dressed up and went to Sta. Rosa, Laguna to look for papa Kim, but we’re unsuccessful. Then, we went to Tagaytay. I was not excited because I already went there last January but I’m still excited ’cause I’m with my whole bunch of family. We passed by the Coca-Cola company and we saw these large softdrinks in can. How we wished we could go inside and closely took pictures. Luckily we were able to take photo while the car is running. haha. We passed by Colette’s to buy some food to eat in Tagaytay. Ate Melka and I took photos there. haha. My brother said: “Lahat tayo bumaba pero isa lang naman bibili.” haha. Ate Jen, Ate Melka, and I had lots of photo shoots inside the car. I played Owen’s PSP. I forgot what game I played, but I think it’s Street Fighter. haha. I kept on winning, believe me! Kaso inagaw saken ni Deben eh. ump. I wanna have a PSP too. Somebody who can give me one? hehe.

Ate Jen, ate Melka and I were called “Astigs of Tagaytay” ’cause we wore sleeveless blouses even though we know it’s cold there. haha. We even rode in a jeep for free up to the top of the People’s Park though we can walk naman.We just realized that we’re so dami pala that we occupied the jeepney. haha. Papa was the last to ride and there were no vacant seat. He’s just a sabit na lang and pretended to be the Kunduktor. haha. We got the cute hats from a souvenir shop and took photos wearing them but we didn’t buy them. haha. Papa were like crazily looking at what we’re doing. hehe. Tita Joy bought us a cute cellphone holder. Mine is violet, but it’s alright. We saw a Kenya girl, she’s Carol, and tita Joy approached her and asked if her son, Owen, can take photo with her. She agreed. Owen hesitated at first because he’s so embarrassed. haha. But then he can’t do anything. All of us were forcing him. hahaha. We we’re like teasing him that she’s his girlfriend. haha. People sitted beside us were eating spaghetti and we’re teasing Owen ’cause that’s his favorite. haha. He ate mangoes that time and ate Melka said, “Isipin mo na lang, spaghetti yan.” hahaha. There were lots of Koreans there. The three of us were looking for a handsome one so we can take photos with him but we found no one. haha. Auntie Willy got lost at the People’s Park in the Sky. They searched for her, then we found out that she’s waiting for us in the car na pala. haha.

At Picnic Grove, we had horseback riding. haha. I thought Deben took a nice video of us but err not. Nakatalikod kami sa video. Kainis ka bentot! My horse’s name is Jennifer, ate Melka’s Lovely and ate Jen’s Sarah. haha. Female horses. I want that white horse with number 16 but she’s resting. nah. Our guides are only kids and I talked with my guide. He said that they are paid Php 20 per person they guide. In a day, he will only earn 100, that’s maximum na daw. Kasi nga madami silang guide kaya agawan sila. I was kinda pitying them. hai. And it was boring that my horse was just waling in circles. I asked my guide to make my horse run a little bit. He told me that I should only pull the string but I don’t want to. I’m afraid. haha. So he did. The horse kinda running and it’s making me nervous. haha. It might run so fast that my guide can’t pace up. So better have my horse walking. hehe. Anyway, we also want to ride in a cable car but we didn’t have time ’cause it’s getting dark na. Sayang. We ate on the ground. haha. We didn’t spend on a cottage kasi saglit lang naman kami dun. Palabok, puto, Tempura, Lala, softdrinks. wee. And we had lots of pictorials too.

We talked about orbs. Ate Melka was the one to open that topic. She said that there are stories about these white circle shapes called orbs that mysteriously appear on photos taken during night that are believed to be spirits. We were so crazy that we kept on taking pictures just because we want to see if there are orbs beside us. haha. We had lots and lots of pictorials. (with orbs) haha.
On our way to auntie Willy’s house, we got lost. We were not able to catch up uncle Fely’s van. We dropped at one of Aunti Willy’s laundry shops kasi to use CR. Uncle Fely thought that we’re still behind them but we’re not. We came to a place that is so dark, and there were so many large trees, few houses, big old churches that tita Joy thought we were inside a cemetery. She called ate Ethel to ask for directions. She told us that there were no cemeteries there. The engine of the car even stopped that made us more scared. You know, in movies, when there are ghosts or something, the cars stops and never run again so the passengers were stucked in a dark place, you know that? That’s what scared us. ah. Good thing the car started again. We were scared that we might go far, so they decided to just wait at Mercury drugstore then Uncle Fely would fetch us. Ate Jen, ate Melka and I were all scared and we kept on saying, “Kuya Dongay, wag na tayo dumerecho. Bumalik na tayo dun.” hahaha. Then Uncle Fely came and finally we arrived. Then we knew that it’s really not a cemetery. Nagkataon lang na brownout nun. hahaha. We were so laughing at ourselves. Really. hai. What an experience. Owen even said, “Ayan, puro kasi tayo orbs eh.” hahaha. We had dinner at auntie Willy’s house. It’s only ate Ethel who’s in the house yo. x) Not even a shadow of Ivan. nah.

They dropped us home at around 10:30 pm but I hurriedly packed up my things ’cause I’m coming with them to Valenzuela. At around 12 midnight, we arrived at tita Joy’s house. We slept in the attic.
Next morning, Monday, we forced ate Jen not to go to work. She texted her boss and made an alibi. haha. We really planned to go shopping at Divisoria. Mama Dars and auntie Telly woke up early. Ate Jen woke up late but Ate Melka and I woke up the last. haha. Mama Dars and auntie Telly were just waiting for us so we can go to Divisoria na. They’re already dressed up. After we took a bath, ate Melka decided that we’ll go to Trinoma and PBB house na lang. Mama Dars and auntie Telly were like funnily mad at us. haha. They said, “(in Bisaya) Ano ba kayo. Sana sinabi niyo na di kayo sasama samin. Hinintay pa naman namin kayo. Kung maaga sana kayo nagdecide, nasa Divisoria na sana kami ngayon.” haha. We were so laughing hard. Ate Jen said, “Naku mama Dars, kung di kami pasaway, di na kami Notarte noh.” hahaha. I like that.
We went to PBB house first. It’s ate Melka’s first time and she was so excited. haha. The people were staring at the three of us and they keep on saying, “Tres Marias ah..” haha. When we went inside the ABS-CBN compound, the guards there said, “Akala namin pinasok na kami ng mga M.I.B.” hahaha. They said that because we were wearing shades. We rode in an MRT due to ate Melka’s request, even if we just rode one station. haha.

We roamed around Trinoma to look for the X-Print store to buy a shirt. It took long before we found it but then the shirt ate Melka’s looking for is out of stock. haha. We ate at Max’s restaurant, ate Melka’s treat. We were so full. We didn’t even consmued all our foods. Ang dami kasi. haha. Ate Jen and I had halo-halo na puro sabaw lang, konti lang sahog. hahaha.

Ate Jen went back to her dorm so it’s just ate Melka and I who went back to tita Joy’s house. We were about to leave when Papa Kim arrived. “Nung hinanap, wala. Kung kela di hinanap, dumating.” haha. They all talked in the house beside, and we didn’t come with them. Instead, ate Melka and I stayed in Owen’s room with kuya Edgar and listened to his musings. haha. Kuya Edgar suggested that we should go there and take a video of their conversation so we can send it to Maalala Mo Kaya and earn money. haha. Another one is we should go there, ask for what merienda they want, coffee, juice, or water while listening to their conversation. hahaha. Ate Melka and I were so laughin and laughin at his ideas. haha. x)

Their way is to the airport so they just dropped me at the Monumento LRT sation. The worst part: Nadaya ako sa LRT! I paid Php 200 bill for a Php 15 ticket to EDSA. I was asked for Php 5 so I hurried to get my wallet which is located at the deepest part of my bag so I was kinda haggard. I got my change without counting it and got in the train. When I was sitted, I counted it. darn. I only got Php 180. I should have a change of Php 190. I really calculated it over and over again. But yes I’m right. I should get a Php 190 change. err. kainis. Papa told me that that’s one of their tricks to confuse us, especially when we;re in a hurry. Lesson: Don’t trust anyone. Count your change before leaving the counter. Don’t give anything when they ask you Php 5 or any.

Then home sweet home. Back to normal yo people. haha. We all need to do now is upload photos so each of us can grab each one’s photos. haha. That was so great. I even come up with one quote I made myself: “To be with the people you love and loves you back is the best thing that can ever happen to you.” Agree?

So yes, I decided to keep this blog alive and kickin’. haha. I’ll put all the long stories of my experiences here. I’ll just put the summaries on mwahugz.net ;))
