good evening everyone.
we had a surprise visitor today, it was tito allan!
it's been almost two years since we last saw him.
he was with us during our "new year" accident two years ago.
he had the worst injuries of us all.
he was on coma for a few days, had cranial bleeding and he was at the brink of death.
thankfully, he was able to recover physically and go to the province with his family.
but mentally, he did not have a sense of reality.
seeing him today, he was well and mentally capable was a great joy for us. (^_^)

abra trip - holy week
minna~
finally! here is the entry about our one week stay at our province, Abra.
during our stay in the province,
we didn't go out of our house much.
the space in our garden and the treehouse was enough for us to keep ourselves entertained.
add to that, even though we have known and have been living in a gallery,
me and my siblings always saw something interesting in our house/gallery.
(~_~)
add to that,
the mango trees in the garden was bearing fruit,
so we literally got our own food from around us. (~_~)
we went our for a walk around the small town on our first day,
just so we can say hi to those we know.
i'm not bragging or anything,
but our family is very known in our province.
despite that,
we try to be discreet and that is why people are amazed when we introduce ourselves.
anyways, during our short walk,
rei and i visited our church and the Holy Ghost School.
the Holy Ghost School was the first of the Holy Spirit Schools here in the Philippines.
rei and i studied in one of the Holy Spirit Schools here in manila.
moving on...
the other reasons for us to go out of our house was for a procession or when we needed to buy something.
holy tuesday,
we joined the Stations of the Cross procession our plaza.
maundy thursday,
we were already preparing the Santo Inchero (the dead Jesus Christ) for the friday evening procession.
on the evening of thursday,
we also joined a procession.
during such processions,
there is this structure they call "abong-abong" which we pass through along the way.
this structure is made of bamboo and coconut leaves.
it is decorated with fruits, cloth, paintings or other materials.
inside it is a tableau depicting scenes from the gospels,
specifically scenes during the last supper until the death of Jesus.
good friday,
everyone was busy preparing the Santo Inchero.
preparing the food to be served for the musikeros,
for those who will prayed,
for those who helped pull the Santo Inchero
and for those who visited the Santo Inchero at our house.
this day was also the Kissing of the Feet of Jesus.
it is during this time that it is said that Jesus has died.
after the Kissing of the Feet was the evening procession with the Santo Inchero.
for the whole evening,
there were prayers until dawn of black saturday.
black saturday,
we visited the grave of my grandmother in Villa Padua.
Villa Padua is a family property in the mountains of Abra.
this villa is dedicated to St. Anthony of Padua.
during our visit,
we went up the Stairway to Heaven in our villa.
there is supposed to be 100 steps to the top of the mountain.
this was conceptualize by my grandfather.
later that afternoon,
we went to a different part of our province for a cool swim at a natural spring.
it was a really cooling way to beat the heat.
easter sunday,
rei and i woke up early to watch the "sabet",
it is a reenactment of the meeting between mother and son,
Mother Mary and her risen son Jesus Christ.
after that was the easter mass.
we rushed for breakfast because we were scheduled to leave for manila after the mass.
the trip was very warm and windy,
tiring and exhausting,
but that itself is part of the whole trip.
i am very thankful for the one week we had in Abra,
and for the safety of our trip to and fro Abra.

oh car!
my cousin, kuya lee jay was overseeing the repair for a car from my aunt.
he brought the car here this morning.
my father took it for a test drive,
we were his passengers.
there was only one word to describe the car.
SUGOI!!!
it was very very very fast!
and very very very smooth!
i was soooo AMAZED!!!!
even after the short drive and when we already got out of the car,
i was still feeling excited!!!
maybe a better way to show my reaction is this video.
like daiki on the 4:17 of this video (from *pnish* secret box stage).
