SSS.... It's 2008!!!
My niece promised me that she'll treat me an ice cream. Thus, after lunch, proceeded to Glorietta for that promised ice. But first, stopped by the cemetery to visit my Nanay, lit a candle and said a prayer.Before proceeding to the theaters, bought first food needed for our New Year's Eve celebration. Bought cakes and pastry at Goldilocks. It was the The Landmark's supermarket for the "round" fruits like grapes, oranges, apples, etc.
It was Sakal, Sakali, Saklolo for us. A sequel to the successful romantic comedy Kasal, Kasali, Kasalo, the movie did not disappoint. (Oh! My niece bought me an Oreo blizzard from Dairy Queen. hehehe!) This time, it is the chapter on the lives of Angie (Judy Ann Santos) and Jed (Ryan Agoncillo) with their new baby, Rafa. And because of the new grandson, it is a "battle" between the in-laws. The movie did not fail to make its audience laugh, a great feel-good movie.
After the movie, we had our early dinner at Pizza Hut Bistro in Glorietta 4. This is to take advantage, too, of the 10% discount coupon we have whose effectivity is until today. LOL
(The mall would be closing early today. The 3PM screening is the last full show for the movie.)
There are lots of "beliefs" for the change of the year. One is that the dinner table should be full of food (with round fruits included) to start the year bountiful. At the strike of twelve, the children should jump so that they would grow taller. There should be money in all the pockets of what you're wearing so that one will not be in need ("may madudukot kung kailangan")--some even wear round design (for coins) or clothes are colored green (for dollar). There were firecrackers to ward of evil (but these, I think, is more of Chinese tradition).
While waiting for twelve midnight, we played Wii to while the hours away... c",)
A happy and prosperous 2008 to all of us!!!
