holy weekend...

At last nakumpleto na rin ang grades as of kagabi…so delayed celebration na ito…im officially going to 5th year! At matino pa rin ang grades ko (contrary to what I predicted), whew!

Been busy lately because my uncle, aunt, and baby cousin (the one I mentioned before) stayed with us for the holy week before going back to the States. Along with them, two of my aunts, and my mother’s cousin also stayed with us in order to spend more time with the family. In other words, jampacked! One of the few times na nakita kong puno ang mahaba naming dinner table, bwehehe.

The holy week also revealed something to me…I will NEVER become a vegetarian…or any other –an that involves not eating meat…I almost died for the past four days eating only fish and shells (I actually love shells, but there’s such a thing as having too much baked tahong) also because there aren’t any crustaceans (crabs, shrimps, lobsters haha) in the menu.

We spent Easter at Tagaytay since my uncle and aunt want to go around there before going back to the US. We first went to picnic grove, which was partly disappointing because we just spent 10 minutes there hehe. Although I’ve gone to the place many times when I was young through school field trips, I went because I thought we will go through the ecoadventure trail (which is this new trail cutting through the forest, with matching hanging bridge pa). Well, we didn’t go (one of the disadvantages of having adults around hehe), so technically sayang ang rubbershoes ko. I’m obsessed with going through that trail because when I was in second year, we went to the picnic grove for our school picnic. In a sudden rush of rebellion me and three of my friends went beyond the picnic grounds (I think may harang pa nun hehe)…and went through this forest, as in no trail whatsoever…so yun palaboy laboy lang…muntik nga kaming maiwan ng bus pabalik eh, hehe. Yun lang, nagdradrama lang ako, hehe.

Nabuhayan din ako that same day since I got to watch Bon Jovi at Oprah that night (as in naka-alarm pa siya sa cell ko)…Ritchie Samborra fan kasi ako…(oooOOh! We’re livin’ on a prayer…) then I got to watch Anne of Green Gables Part 3 which has no basis on the books whatsoever…but it’s nice to see the same actors more than a decade after the part 2 (part 2 was made in 1987 while part 3 year 2000 na)…tanda na grabe.

Also discovered another nice classic movie c/o TCM again…Shop Around the Corner… Ten mentioned it to me before since she saw that scene akin to the coffee shop meeting in You’ve Got Mail…sobrang sakto grabe…so technically YGM is an updated version of SATC…also liked James Stewart and Margaret Sullivan’s chemistry, haha. So love the last scene at the shop nung nagkaaminan na *kilig*
