Nov 2, 2006


we left manila exactly 5am. since PGMA did not declare nov 2 as a holiday, we were expecting na traffic going home to NE. We arrived cabanatuan before 8am...which was not bad. considering that my mom made a stop at a market in sta rosa for aroind 30 minutes to buy fruits.

we thought of having breakfast at acropolis, also to check if sila tita elo were still checked in. but as we went out of the van, they were about to leave na din. they were targeting to back to manila after lunch so they wanted to go to the cemetry early. we just decided to meet up sa cemetry. we went to the columbarium first to say a prayer for tita tess. after that we went to jollibee to eat breakfast.

after breakfast we went my lola's hse to pick up tito oboy and family. we were at the cemetery before ten in the morning. we first went to the tomb of tiong tito, tita elo's dad. after we went to tio vering's tomb, where my great grandparents (lola's side) were also buried.

we had lunch which was composed of pinakbet, adobo and fried tilapia. we ate lunch at the cemetery. it was a non-stop eating session also. we were eating peanuts, popcorn, chips, grapes, lanzones, sandwich, atbp!

around 2pm my dad and i went to where my great grandparents and other relatives from the diaz side were buried. i took photos, using my phone only cause i left my camera! around 5pm we went to another side of the cemetery to where other relatives (my dad's cousins) were.

we left the cemetery past 6pm. hatid yung ibang relatives tapos we had dinner at max's cabanatuan before heading home. we left cabanatuan at exactly 8pm and we arrived manila 11pm. traffic was really bad sa bulacan. considering it was late na.

it has been awhile since we last went to NE for all-saints day. it was fun. it has always been fun.

i was at the last row of the van...and it served as my bed!

akala ko nung bata pag nakalagay sa labas family, ang ibig sabihin namatay buong family! teehee terno si dad with the chowking booth
akala ko nag pray...texting pala...teehee.

only in the Philippines
