Sunday still, may 10, 2009.. after dropping by at my friend's cafe.. i went straight home.. we were about to go to the memorial place and visit my dadda's grave, offer some prayers and greet him a happy birthday (weird, happy and he's dead), but the weather isn't with us.. i asked my sister if they will still come with me and visit dadda's grave, but the loud thunder made them decide not to with me, they'll just stay home as she said.. so, i prepared; wore my gray-slim-tee with hood and my black and white checkered skinny pants with my white pointed shoes with crocodile brooch on it (nyehehehe.. guess what it's brand is)..
The sky was heavy and the thunder is getting louder, but still i continued with my plans.. while i was in the vehicle, someone texted me.. he is a friend whom i known hours ago from my YM account, when we had a conversation earlier, i promised him that i will visit his place (just to know a new face, explore new kind of people, learn something new from them), i replied on him my confirmation about visiting him and that will be on 8pm that night..
It was exactly 6pm when i arrived in the memorial place, and i was so surprised that i couldn't even see my dadda's grave.. two trees sprouted from the place and when i lighted my candles as my offering to the dead, my hands were shaking because of the heatlhy leaves and branches... i was thinking that maybe snakes will surprisingly jump upon me, bite me and his venom will spread through my body and ill be numb, and what's worse nobody is in that place, i was just alone.. and later on people will find out that there's a corpse in that place bitten by a snake.. but that didn't happened anyway.. hehehe.. 'twas just my mere imagination..
After 45mins, i went out of the graveyard and bid my dadda a farewell.. i went straight to the church and luckily 5mins when i arrived, the mass ended, meaning i could sit whenever i wanted since the next mass schedule is about to start.. my sister texted me that she and our nephew is on their way to the church, they changed their mind.. maybe they were bored being confined in the four corners of our little homey.. so i, reserved seats for them.. about 20mins lapsed when they arrived and the mass started 5mins after their arrival.. my nephew from afar saw me first and shouted "adto man si tito" (there he is).. i was giggling with my nephew as if we havent met years ago.. hehehe.. until the mass bell rang.. the mass was about to start.. the priest and all the cast of the celebration passed by like a procession.. the choir sang a heavenly chantal song andthe people were singing too.. My nephew was playing, playing, playin until he met a new playmate.. we just let him played.. anyway, what's the sense of him going to the church if he cannot even read "cahpter, verses, crucifiction.... etc...."
after the mass, our next stop was the grocery, we bought stuff like instant foods, toiletries and some snacks... i was trying to bought ice cream but i forgot to bring my extra-money, so i left it, anyway, we had just ice cream two days ago.. hehehe..
while we were planning to go home, i forgot we have no food in our house for dinner.. so i bought some for take-out and just consume it at home... and still i almost forgot that i have to visit a friend...
