Yesterday, we had our longest break so far! Eight mighty hours!
But we didn’t hate it, though. We actually liked it! Or did the others like it? I sure did. Hahaha.
Aimee, Leslie, Jessa, and I went to Shalee’s apartment to idle around. Well, not really. We had some activities there! Sleeping could be one, right?
I also taught Jessa some WordPress stuff. I’m excited about her new domain! Weee!
I think I’m not yet allowed to spread it.
And the most fun thing — henna tattoo! Jeff, Leslie’s boyfriend, also went to Shalee’s apartment. And he was the one who did the henna tattoos on our hands (with sketch)!

Hands from top, clockwise: Shalee’s, Leslie’s, Aimee’s, mine. Ako lang ang walang nail polish.
Jessa’s hand is missing. Tsk.

Showing off? Nope. Just for the sake of the pic. Mahahaha!
Shalee, Aimee, Leslie, me. Jessa is missing again.
This afternoon, after our exam in Operations Research, I went to meet my mom and we attended the procession for the Feast of Sto. Niño. Tomorrow will be the Sinulog Festival!
I won’t be going out of the house, though. Midterms week na kasi. And I also have plenty of other stuff to do.
Anyway, ang haba ng procession kanina! Dinagdagan daw kasi yung route because last time daw, inabutan pa ng head of the procession yung float of Sto. Niño sa church. I think kanina rin. So ganyan karami yung mga tao!
Since we thought we wouldn’t be able to see Sto. Niño (nasa unahan kasi kami ng procession), my mom and I just strolled around, then ate at McDonald’s.
When we passed by the basilica again, the float was on the way!
So we waited for it. Kahit halos matumba na kami sa crowd, go pa rin!
And I was really glad na nakita ko si Sto. Niño! Mind you, I almost cried, really!
I took a pic of the float kahit naging ecstatic na yung mga tao!

I love this shot so much!
Though the float looks small kasi malayo kami, kita naman yung ecstasy ng mga tao!

This pic shows the people waving their hands while singing Bato Balani sa Gugma (Magnet of Love).
And I was really amazed at how people were so united in shouting Pit Señor! Even those who were just outside the church!

Luls bes ang laki ng kamay mo ever. (so yun talaga ang napansin ko instead of the henna? hahaha! shet) Pero I like the design bes specially yung sayo. Gusto ko rin nyan sa batok kaso ayaw ni Kianne. Err. INGGIT AKO! Ang colorful ng shot mo kaya love mo yun noh?
Reply
Shet bes, ba’t yun pa pinansin mo? Hahaha. Malaki ba talaga xa? Or sarcastic ka lang? Compared to Aimee’s hand beside mine, smaller yung sakin though mas mataba ng konti. Wahahaha.
‘Wag mo na lang ipaalam kay Kianne. Ang cute talaga ng henna eh. Ngayon ko lang din na-try. Hehehe.
I love the shot bes kasi nakuha yung reaction ng mga tao. Photoshop lang yang enhancement ng colors. Hihihi.
