I HATE DIAL UP!!! everytime i connected to the internet, hotmail doesn't open, blogger doesn't open, friendster doesn't open, COS doesn't open, but out of all the sites, AA opens!!!! grrr...very very annoying...
I've done SOOO much.. but honestly, im not having the greatest time for some odd reason.. Im doing fun stuff but im not enjoying it..
Last saturday, I went to my mom's home province of Davao.. It was so peaceful and simple, life literally is sleep, eat, shop, sleep, eat shop. Every single day, we went out for dinner with someone.. hold on.. i need to explain my family
first, i've got my auntie bee dian whose my mom's sister. She has 4 sons, Hoovenson, Anderson, Walterson and Jamie. The first three got married so i had 2 nieces and one nephew Harriette, Sarah, and Adam. My 3 cousin inlaws are Awing, Beth and Eline. That's who i pretty much hung out with.
My mom's childhood friends treated her out to dinner everynight and the WHOLE family came along. Imagine the chaos and FUN! hehehehe.. so .. throughout the 5 days, i went to eat at harana(a bbq place), ranchero(another bbq place) [NO BURNT STUFF FOR ME!!], Sen Ton Won(chinese), and Thai Ming for dinner. Breakfast was at auntie's place and lunch was at awing's place. LOADS OF FUNN!!!
Shopping was endless and I bought 3 sarongs, and a whole bunch of native stuff. Went to the beach too... THE WATER WAS SOOO CLEAR!! soo much fun.
on the way back, its tradition to bring many boxes of tropical fruits like durian, pomelo (giant grapfruits), and magosteen back on the flight. We didn't want the durian and mangosteen so we ended up with 2 big cretes of pomelo and 6 little boxes of pomelo. This is excess baggage of course so i learned what the usually do. My mom went up to two people who had no baggages and said if we could check in with them so we took the tickets and checked in as a group so we didn't have excess baggage! i was soo embarassed but apparently even does this. So anyways.. im flying back to manila
Back in manila, there's a typhoon and the whole city is pouring rain. Downtown manila is like FLOODED up to the waist.. it was funny..
didn't do squat on thur and fri cept for the fact that my parents and I were pretend jamming in the car while listening to billy joel.. my mom was drums, my dad was guitar and driving, and i was piano.. it was hilarious (and no im not a loser)
today, i met up with tiff and job whom i havn't seen in ages and tonight we're sleeping over at tiff's house!!! pics to soon follow.. hehehehe..
CAN"T WAIT TILL SCHOOL!!!! hahaha.. (still not a loser)
