A Different Weekend

Yesterday, I was out of the house the whole day. I spent my morning in my other job; and then at lunch time, I went to the mall to buy some stuff for my niece and nephews. Before going home, I dropped by the Snack Exchange section of the mall and bought "a few" snacks. I grabbed a tin of Pic-Nic (cheddar flavor) and a Pringles (sour cream and onion flavor); a pack of M&M (plain chocolate), a pack of Sponge Crunch chocolate snack, and 2 packs of Pods (a vegetable snack). I told you, its just "a few" (big grin). The Pods Veggie snack is for my Mom actually; the rest of the stuff are mine, whehehe....

That afternoon, I went to my Uncle's house. I spent the rest of the day in their house, singing and eating. My Uncle is visiting from Colorado; he'll be leaving next week. He just had to fix a few things here in the Philippines; and he also spend time with his relatives in the province. Actually, he is my Uncle-in-law. He's the wife of my Mom's sister. We became close because I used to live in their house when I was still in elementary school. When it was time for me to go home, he asked me if I can stay and sleep over; just like old times. But I had to beg off. I told him I would miss my pillows hehehe.... I just promised him that I will be back tomorrow for his birthday celebration.

And so, my Sunday was spent in their house, celebrating my Uncle's birthday. We had lunch and sing our hearts out the whole afternoon. Unfortunately, I left my camera in the office, I was not able to take pictures (sad face). My cousin has a camera, I will just wait for the pictures from her. I was also the designated dish washer (big grin). My Uncle was telling me to leave the dishes for my cousin to finish, but I told him its okay, that I am an expert dishwasher.

Time flies when you are having fun - true indeed. When it was time to go home, my Uncle asked me again to stay and sleep over. He was saying a lot - as in - a lot of things, excuses, to keep me from going home; to stay in their house, hehehe... Well, I guess he just misses me. And to keep him from being sad, I just told him that I will be back next weekend to visit him.

I surely had a different weekend this time. I usually stay in the house on weekends; sleeping, blogging and watching TV. Sometimes I would go to the mall and spend time with old friends. This time, I spend my time with my family and relatives; bonding with them and reminiscing the old times.
