Merry Christmas! Whew. What an exhausting day. 2005 is 4 days away, and that means manmy academic life would be on active mode again. Ayaw ko na magaral!
I’m excited to share what we experienced last Christmas. For the past few years, I have been made to believe (hehe) that it is a family tradition to visit Baguio at least once in a year (We visit Baguio very often). Those visits usually take place every Christmas, and that visit wouldn’t be complete without one family which has been so close to us ever since I was a kid. We and the Abrasaldos had been through many trips, misunderstandings, church-transfers (hehe) and countless other experiences. I guess what made our relationship with them last this long was that they have been really good and true friends and that the Lord has guided the friendship all along.
And so here’s the story. We stayed in Baguio for 3 days and 2 nights. And what we did were those things that a usual family visiting Baguio would do. We stayed in a hotel (which was the same hotel where we stayed last year). Before we reached the hotel, we went through a series of seemingly never-ending maneuvers and turns. It turned out that Tito Edsel has forgotten the exact location of the hotel. Haha
While in Baguio, all that I can do was eat. I guess I gained a couple of pounds this school break. I can’t afford to gain that much significant weight! (After all the hardships I’ve been through? No way. Haha I remember my mom saying that I’ve become too maarte. Before I wasn’t so conscious about gaining weight, and that I even said before that I really don’t care if I was obese or not. But after I lost all the weight I’ve been too much involved in counting calories, etc.)
We went to PMA, Camp John Hay, and the immortal Burnham Park. And of course, any trip (for me) wouldn’t be complete without SHOPPING! I was given PhP 500 to spend on whatever I like. Kulang nga eh. I wasn’t even able to buy Peanut Brittle and Ube. L
While on our way home we stopped at a gasoline station. The brake of the Abrasaldos’ Toyota Lite Ace had to be fixed, and so we had to wait for over an hour. While chatting and waiting for the car to be fixed, Mia left the keys of the Sentra locked inside! Waah! Another Problemo! And we haven’t eaten supper yet.
We suggested that they look for other Sentras and ask if they could try their keys on the car. One Sentra arrived, and immediately they approached the driver and asked for his help.
The guy was a 19-year-old Philippine Military Academy Student. (He was so cute! We actually had a crush on him.) He was running towards the car and immediately he tried his key on the back compartment of the car. Still, the car didn’t open. L This guy’s brother (kapatid niya ba tlga un?) suggested that we go seek for a locksmith’s services. The PMAer told his brother to accompany Tito Edsel and Tita Anne to the place since we weren’t familiar with the directions. They even used his car! .. Sana nakasakay ako dun. He was left in the gasoline station to talk with my dad. Hehe.. and of course, I was there, pretending to listen to the conversation (But of course, I didn’t just pretend, I really listened. Hehe). And soon his brother came with the news that the locksmith would arrive in 45 minutes. We had to wait that long.
And so we waved goodbye to the good-hearted cutie. L,
To make the long story short, the problem was fixed after 2 hours. Hayy.. we were all eager to go home.
I believe my post has been too long. And I’m kinda sleepy. G’nyt!!
