mother's day: not so perfect as i thought it would be.

i always thought that special occasions would go just as planned. this year's mother's day, was, well, should i say... perfectly planned.

but i thought wrong.

the day started out just like an ordinary day. i woke up, went downstairs, greeted my mom, and had breakfast. i even watched tv. then, next thing i knew, my mom was calling me for lunch. after lunch, my sister and i even raced to the bathroom, to take a bath. i know, we're so pathetic. haha. but she was faster, so i just gave in (do i have a choice?).

since it's sunday, we first went to church at st. jerome in alabang. shortly after the mass began, i was already pissed. people were passing by us just like we were stone statues there. they didn't even bother to say 'excuse me'. didn't they realize that mass is ongoing?! at first, i just let them through. but i have to admit, i am really short-tempered. at times. and i am not in a good mood that time. the second time, i pretended that i didn't hear them and i didn't move. haha. i am really bad! but it's really annoying and irritating. i couldn't focus on the mass at hand. grrrr.

after what seemed like ages, the mass ended. we officially celebrated mother's day at red crab, at atc. gawd, the line in the parking ticket booth was unmistakable. it is really mother's day. thankfully, eventhough mommy hadn't made reservations, we still snagged a table. supposedly, grandma will join us there. we like, waited for half an hour. and she's only living in alabang hills! but due to limited parking space, she just called my mom to tell her that she's heading home now because she couldn't find a parking space.

but, the healing forces of crabs soothed my nerves. the entire meal was delicio-so!! mmm.

and, as i think of that day, it wasn't so bad after all. =D
