Ang Paborito kong Lolo: A Competition of Attention

Eversince when we were young, every summer we always look forward for the month of May. It's just not because it's the month wherein we could get the full splash of summer vacay or long hours of fulfilling the couch potatoes we are.

"Oh Ning maghanda kayo ah at dadating si Lolo Max niyo."


Aw.Lolo Max, Ang paborito kong lolo.


Along with his arrival, You must expect (all comes with names for whom that certain goody is)snickers and baby ruths, loads of 'em, fancy toiletries, brand new to hand me down clothes which we still drool on, imported canned goods and oh, not to forget THE RIVALS- other relatives who allegedly hides some of the "padalas" which is is obviously not addressed to them but still claims it is theirs.Which is typically annoying though and usually ignites cold war between some of our family members.


We kinda used to that kind of scenario. I think it is really immature of them to take what's not theirs..bloww me down burglars...


I can proudly say that our family, even though we are not as affluent as theirs, has got a decree of discipline and dignity. I can say that we had reached a high intellect that none of my cousins have reached before, and because of that, my papa is proud of us. Well I guess our childhood days of punishment somewhat helped us earned something. I'm not saying that we are a bunch of arrogant know-it-all wannabees, I just want my blog readers to know that me and my sisters had got a wide range of understanding that we had earned with pain and rigid instruction despite of the financial problems we're on since then.


That's why our favorite lolo's favorite apo is ehem, ME!


and for my 18th birthday he's got me a dslr *eyeshines*


but because of the recession in U.S., I'm not sure if he's still going to grant me my dream camera.It's alright, there's a reason for everything aren't they?
