Been busy for the past few days...

Here's an update of what's happening in real life so far...

Friday, 19th of December...
I went to school to enroll for the next term...
The offices were only until 5 pm so I wasn't able to finish the process...
I had to go back the next day for the payment...
I was grateful that my friends, Keziah, Kat, Shid and Allan waited for me...
Then we went to SM Manila...
We first checked the cinema, what movies are shown and the time they'll be starting...
We decided to watch "Quarantine" through the time it will be starting which is in an hour and it's only movie playing that none of us have watched yet...
So we bought tickets for the 7:05 pm showing and went to grab lunch/dinner in one in Chowking...
Shid, Allan, Keziah and me ordered the salo-salo set meal while Kat ordered her own food...
We ate a lot...
We were so hungry cause we've been in school since lunch time and none of us ate lunch...
After eating there's still time so we just strolled the mall...
I bought a DVD set of the Harry Potter movies from 1 to 5...
After that, we bought snacks, popcorn and drinks and went to the cinema...
Around 8 pm, Keziah left because she has to go home already...
She did not finished the movie so she missed the ending...
It was a nice movie...
We kept screaming while watching...
This get together is to celebrate Keziah's birthday which was November 19th, Allan's birthday which was December 15th and Kat's upcoming birthday on December 30th...
After the movie, my dad called and said they'll pick me up...
Shid's home is on the way to our home so he went with us...
It's been a long time since me and my friends got together...
I had so much fun and I missed them so much...
After 4 years of being friends with each other, there are things that I realized in our group...
First, enrollment is the only time we really get together on a regular basis...
Second, during this time we ALWAYS end up eating in Chowking (this isn't on purpose)...
Third, all of us loves to watch movies in the cinema...
At least, there are things we ALL enjoy doing together...^_^

Saturday, 20th of December...
After lunch, I went to school with my parents to pay for my enrollment...
I'm an academic half-scholar this term, by the way, which I only have to pay half of my tuition fee...
But I never told my dad...
I have a pretty good reason to keep it from him although I really wanted to tell him...
After I paid, we went to Manila Ocean Park...
There wasn't a lot of people wo decided to enter...
My dad bought the Christmas Package ticket which includes the Glass Bottom Boat Ride and Fish Spa...
There are different kinds of fishes...
It was fun at first but became boring because the fishes became repetitive...
There's not much of variations...
Oh well, at least we were able to enter the facility...
Then we went home to eat dinner...
After dinner, we went to the grocery to buy our weekly supplies and the food for Noche Buena...
At first, I really did not want to go with my parents because I was already tired...
But I got worried because they might buy the wrong ingredients for our Noche Buena in which I'll be the one who will cook and prepare, so I went with them...
Luckily, we were able to buy everything I need...

Sunday, 21st of December...
We attended mass at 3:30 pm...
Our maid is going home to the province for 4 days so we drove her to the bus terminal...
She immediately found a ticket and boarded the bus...
She said she'll come back and I really do hope she comes back...
We're the same age and I like her...
After that we went to the mall, Robinsons Pioneer...
I was supposed to buy my brother an MP3 player but it turned out to be expensive...
So I dropped the idea...
In the end, I wasn't able to buy anything...
We just ate in Old Spahgetti House for dinner...
At least, I came out full from the mall...

Monday (today), 22nd of December...
My mom woke me up because we agreed to go buy gifts for Christmas...
First, we went to the bank to deposit money...
Goint to the salon was also ony my schedule today...
I was planning to get my hair colored and permed but my mom said it will take more than an hour...
Besides, I don't go out much anyway so we rescheduled it on January 2...
After the bank, we went to the mall...
We ate lunch first in Chowking again...
Then, we bought presents for the whole family...
I invited my cousin to spend the Christmas eve with us and they will, so I also bought presents for them...
I'll tell you what I bought for them after Christmas...
When we got home, I wrapped them in gift wrappers and put them under the Christmas tree...
So now, our tree is overflowing with gifts...
