I Love You, Mom

Yesterday, Sunday, May 13, was a very special day for special people. They're the ones who delivered you into this world. They're the ones who will love you forever. They're the reason behind every success. Being there for us, taking care for us and teaching us is their job. We're sometimes ungrateful to them when we don't get what we want.

Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to all the wonderful moms out there!

Moms always want what's best for us, especially my mom. She sacrifices a lot for us, from staying awake all night to take care of us to giving up the yummiest food for us to taste. I may not be the perfect daughter but I try my best. Okay, I'm hard-headed countless of times but I understand that she knows what's best.

For our awesome mom, she got a shopping spree at Resorts World Manila, Newport Mall yesterday from dad while we, me, my sister and bro (who gives only moral support to the card), got our mom a huge card.

^not our best card because we did it late at night^

While going through the mall around and around, we managed to drop by at the GameZoo's photo booth. The pictures below are a few shots taken.

Besides playing in the GameZoo, an arcade, we went to a lot of shops and shopped a lot. It wasn't only a treat for my mom but also for the rest of the family. I got a few things myself. :> We really had a fun and special day.

Again, Happy Mother's Day to all the awesome mommies out there! :)

As for the title, why "I Love You, Mom"? It's true that I really love her. Although, being a teen, I don't say it that much. So, I'm using this chance to tell why we don't say it that much.

Honestly, I don't know why and I know a lot of other teens do too, but that doesn't change the fact that we love our moms. I guess, sometimes we feel it's a little awkward? Ask us why it's awkward and we'd answer "idk" because we really don't know. We just don't say it that much, that's it, but that doesn't change the way we feel.

Tagaytay Weekend, summer '09

Last weekend, May 30 - 31, we went to Tagaytay! We had lots of fun!

We started our trip on Saturday morning.  We stayed in a hotel called Potter’s Ridge.  It was nice there. We stayed in the family room on the 1^{st floor. When we got there we were tired because of the long trip. Mom and dad left us in the hotel for a while to go somewhere. We stayed in the hotel quite long because mom and dad were not home yet. It rained the whole day. After a while, mom arrived earlier than dad. We got bored at the hotel sometimes, so we took photos of us having fun.}

<-- The view of our hotel room was so beautiful! 

That evening, we went to eat dinner outside. We ate dinner at Carlos Pizza. Then we had dessert at Razon’s. We had halo-halo. Mmmmm... Sarap! Then we head back to our hotel, Potter’s Ridge.

When we got there, mom and dad went to the hotel’s restaurant. It was a wi-fi zone. Mom and dad had date there. 

We woke up early Sunday morning. We dressed ourselves to get ready for breakfast and the day’s activities. After breakfast we packed up our things to check out of our hotel.

After checking out, we went to People’s Park. First, we went horseback riding. We had lots of fun! Each rider has a guide. Usually the guide is an adult but there, it was kids. There were adults telling them what to do, it’s like training them.

After that, Vera and I rode a zipline!!!

Me and V getting on the zipline.

We're off!

Aaahhhhhhh!!!!

Finally! We're done.

I felt a little dizzy when we got off the ride.. It was VERY VERY VERY FUN! 

Then, it was time to head back to sunny Manila. 

PS: If you don't know what's a zipline. Google it.
