Holy Week

It was last Good Friday that my sisters and I went to 14 churches in Manila for our station of the cross. It was my Ate Jhyna’s idea. It was our first time to visit different 14 churches in one whole day. It was tiring but I feel like it was worth it. We didn’t eat our lunch until we are through with the 14th and last church. There are other people who are doing the same thing you can see them everywhere. The only thing is that they are walking barefooted from one church to another and we can’t really do it. So we have to take a ride from one church to another and we’re not barefooted. There are churches that are found almost at the same place so we do the walking. The experience was really something to me. I can’t really say what it is exactly but it really feels like after all the visiting and the fasting it feels like you’re not tired at all. As you go through the way of the cross and if you really mean it, no matter what – barefooted or not – walking or not – you’ll find that reflection that you want and the reflection that you need. Here are the 14 beautiful churches that we visited:
Espiritu Santo Church
San Roque Church
Sta. Cruz Church
Quiapo Church
Binondo Church
Manila Cathedral
San Agustin Church
The Shrine of the Holy Face of Jesus
San Sebastian Church
St. Jude Church
San Beda Church
San Lorenzo Ruiz Church
Franciscan Church
Santo Tomas Church

10 Random Things/ 10 Things People Don’t Know About Me



1. I used to love canned goods especially sardines.

(LOL) When I was still young about 7-10 yrs old, if I'm not mistaken I really love sardines that I really can't eat without it in the table.

2. I don't know how to swim.

I'm from a province, an island province to be exact and it's just so surprising that I really don't know how to swim. I've been trying,but I really can't!

3. I talk when I'm asleep.

This happen whenever I'm so tired.

4. I hate Grape Juices!

I have a medical history about it. I was sent to the hospital, and had grape juice as my water. I've have to drink it for 3 straight weeks.

5. I used to read English pocketbooks!

Before I get addicted to books, my first addiction was English pocketbooks.

6. I had a 3-long week relationship.

This one's really funny. I was really not myself when I said yes to one of my suitors, accidentally.

7. I'm lampa.

I really hate sports! I don't know why but I really hate it!

8. I'm corny.

Sometimes I can really get so corny, that I even hate myself for being such.

9. I want to see ghosts.

But I get scared whenever I feel like there's someone with me that I can't see.haha!

10. I'm tamad!

They keep on saying that I'm tamad but I think I'm not, because if I am then I wouldn't get high grades, I wouldn't be a scholar, right?!
