May 1416
I woke up at 6 fucking o'clock in the morning. Everybody was already busy fussing about the day ahead. I was told I would be coming with Ante Elok when she check in in the hotel Uncle Joey would stay in. Apparently, we would be staying in Tacloban until our flight. So Mom immediately packed up our things. We were told we would be going by 11 so we chilled for a while. I played pool with Jourdan and then we were called for breakfast. When we came back to playing, his Dad called whilst I practice walking with my high-heeled shoes. As foreseen, I walked like shit. Ate Bodak was called to get there so she could be informed that she would also stay with us at the hotel. Mom took off to help with the dresses again and everybody was just so so busy with everything. The iPad we were playing on died so Jourdan quitted and chose to play some other games. On the other hand, I was blessed with internet connection which I used fulfillingly. When I got a bit tired, I went to the room and lied down. I eventually felt sleepy and so I fell into a nap. When I woke up it was already almost 12 noon and lunch was ready. The lunch was super super great with prinitong lamang loob. Because Ante Bikay and Uncle Nestor were there, Jourdan had someone to play with. After lunch, we took pictures around the house to make souvenirs. Also, Ante Marilyn put out her old pictures of everybody. Man was I so petite and food-deprived. I disowned myself a couple of times that afternoon. Anyway, everybody was getting pissed off because it was taking us so long to take off. When Mama was already mad and about to take a shower, it was just in time when Uncle Tito came by to pick us up. The bags and all were the first ones to be put inside the car. I was basically dressed down but didn't mind anyway. We dropped by at Lola's first and Kate specifically threw a tantrum when she saw us leaving without her. Due to the excessive outburst, we decided to take her with us. And during the ride, she fell asleep. We got to the hotel and we immediately checked in. When we got to the room, Uncle Joey and Tita Myra left us to do something. Since there were rooms downstairs, we went to one of them to take a shower and stay there. It was smaller than our room with a queen bed while the one downstairs doesn't have one. Ante Elok took a shower first and Ate Bodak and I were told to look after the kids because she would go to have a facial. When she was done taking a shower, I immediately followed. Once I was done, the kids were already hungry. So we went downstairs to use the telephone and call for a Jollibee delivery. However, we couldn't contact it so we resorted to Ate going to Robinson's to buy food. Ante and I with the two kids stayed at the hotel. As I always say, I always live for them trying to talk to each other. Anyway, Uncle Joel came by with the barongs and it was just in time when Ate also arrived. Abruptly, we ate the food she bought and it was just messy but definitely delicious. After we ate, Uncle Joel took off and then we waited for Kuya Longgoy to arrive. The two kids decided to play hide and seek and they also decided to make me join. It was hilarious because of Kate's counting and her English. Also because of the two of them shrieking all the time. Anyway, Ante was about to go when Kate was picked up so Jourdan was left with Ate and I. It was really boring and sleepy because we had the room for ourselves and Jourdan wanted more people. He also asked for food so we fed her first and then Kuya Longgoy and Uncle Joey arrived. He basically entertained Jourdan. The latter even once thought it was Uncle's job to help people get in to their room when he absolutely knows who those people are. Anyway, everyone gradually came around when we were already in our room. Ate Lyka arrived and we watched The Prenup. My parents and Ante Bikay visited us and took a peek of the hotel. Jourdan was still waiting for his Mom so we were just playing around to keep him aboard. He was also getting hungry and we've got no food. Good thing Ante Marilyn came by with some fruits and we fed Jourdan some bananas. He rejected the first one because Kuya Longgoy took a bite of the banana. I was also getting tired of waiting because it was getting late and Jourdan has to sleep. Fortunately, when I went downstairs, they were already there. We stayed on the room and we were all ruled out to the sala-like place downstairs so Jourdan could sleep. We were all starving and lucky for us Tita Emz and Uncle Joel arrived with fucking KFC. We all looked evacuees when we were gathered to eat but it was really fun. Once we were done, we chilled for a while and then decided to just go upstairs and lay down. We watched a Thai movie before we all went to sleep. Basically, it was a bit of a luxurious day.
