As usual, I was badly waken up today. We had breakfast and Mama was off to pay at Pag-Ibig. Since the establishment is right in front of Canossa, Mama asked if I would want to go with her so I could go to school and request for a Good Moral certificate. I was very reluctant at first but I messaged Andee if she wanted to go as well and she said she would so I immediately took a shower and then changed into decent clothes. Around 1030, Mama and I were off. We kinda had good conversations on the way and even hilarious ones because she forgot her phone. We were kinda stuck on traffic for a while but we got to Calamba just in time. I got so dizzy on the ride that I asked Mama to just walk to Canossa. So we did and the funniest but guiltiest thing was when we were about to cross, a woman behind us asked to cross the street with us and right as I shouted yes, Mama sprinted to the other side which dragged me with her and left the woman behind. Sorry, Ate. Anyway, since Andee was still on the road, I accompanied Mama to this law firm first which was just along Canossa. After that, I did not go to PAGIBIG with her and just stayed at Gate 1 instead. There, I waited for Andee. It was weird stepping in because it did not totally sink in that it wasn't my school anymore. I just sat there with a bunch of parents who were qaiting for lunch break. It was a bit awkward sitting there so I figured I wanna see Ms. Cor. I asked the guard if she was there and it turned out she resigned already. I literally had no idea until that moment which made me kinda shout at the guard. So weird. I went back to my seat and waited for Andee. I was getting kinda frustrated because she was taking too long and their lunch break was gonna start. Then Angelus started and for the first time, I wasn't obligated to stand but I did participate. When it was done, people started arriving at Gate 1, specifically my batchmates. IT WAS SO AWKWARD I WANTED TO RIP MY JEANS. Then Andee arrived and we went straight to the cashier to pay for the certificate and it was awkward because people were waving at us or saying hi which was weird. We then walked to the HRC and side-eyeing JC, Yana, ER, and Honey's classroom and was tryna see if they were outside. But they weren't so we went inside the HRC and saw Ms. Moya and asked for our certificates then went out. We just sat there because we had no idea what to do. We just wanted to see our 4 kids. Then they passed by from the canteen and Yana stopped and then the shouting began and the hugging and we were so so so hapoy to see one another. We stayed there first, talking about anything and they invited us to go to their classroom. We went inside and saw JC's face lighten up. He was editing a video presentation and I just missed everything. We were just there, standing, and catching up and it was so so awkward because the other students were inside too. Then Honey, Yana, and ER wanted ice cream so Andee and I went with them to Gate 1. We kinda stayed there a bit while they were licking their popsicles. We went to the library first where we saw Jeron and I said hi to Ms. Dory who had no teeth already. When we were going down the stairs, we saw Ms. Riza and then I immediately hugged her when I saw her. I definitely missed that familiar sense of home. She has always been so close to me and it was fun kinda catching up and realizing not a lot has changed. After that, we walked back to their room. When we were near it, they abruptly said we should go in while they were walking in and Andee and I were just shocked so instead of going inside again, we walked straight through the hall where Enzo jumped on us. Everything was weird. Then we decided to go to the canteen instead which was way more awkward and we didn't know where to go next. It was raining so we didn't know what to do more so we just sat at the kiosk looking at the students and realizing, it's quieter and less fun. Hay. Anyway, we saw more teachers but wasn't able to say hi to them and then we saw Sr. Lina and decided we should just go. So basically, we weren't able to say goodbye to our friends. We weren't sure what to do next because we initially wanted to go to LPU. So we just walked and decided to stay at SM for a while and just think about it there. When we got to the mall, I think we first went to the National Bookstore and just walked everywhere after that. It was so exhausting but everytime we wanted to sit at Dunkin' Donuts, it was always full. Then we went to the grocery store to buy iced tea because we had no plans for lunch. We also went to the department store and just walked around and looked through strollers. We decided to settle at the food court. We did not want to go to LPU anymore and we just wanted to wait for them instead. We found seats and we sat across each other. Almost an hour into our excessive bonding, Goodwin messaged us that he was on the way to SM so we waited for him. It was so fun when he arrived because at least it wasn't just the two of us anymore plus HE HAS BRACES NOW. So we just sat there, not eating anything, just talking and talking and talking. I don't even know what we were talking about anymore. But I had so much fun. Then Goodwin got hungry so we went to KFC because he wanted gravy. He was just eating while we were talking with him and waiting for the LPU babies. We were there for a while and even saw Goodwin's former service driver lol. Then the LPU babies said they're on their way so we went somewhere else because it was so cold there. We went to Krispy Kreme and sat at the most corner seats of the donut store. Andee ordered a doughnut and we were seating beside a group of mute people and Goodwin was so fascinated by their sign language. Anyway, I told them about Jewel's mumbles a few days ago and they found her funny too. Then the LPU babies arrived and it was so fun. We hugged and I missed Mariejoy so much! Since we were piling up in the corner, we moved go another table where we all fit. We caught up with one other's stories and then we saw Czina walking towards the store and it was so good seeing her again. We all got hyped and then continued telling stories. I loved hearing theirs since I've got none to tell. Then Cz was told to go downstairs because they had to buy a dress for her acquaintance on Friday. So we all accompanied her downstairs and we obviously did not stop talking to one another. And Elmo couldn't stop talking about chix in their school. Missed this perv. When we got to the department store and saw Tita Dina, we talked to her for a while and stayed there in the middle of the hall because we couldn't part. But eventually, we all had to go because it was getting late. We said goodbye to Czina and walked to the terminal. We hugged Joyce, Sab, Majoy, and Elmo goodbye and the three of us parted ways as well. My jeepney ride was a bit of a mess because I could not tell if the driver was talking shit about me or nah. Anyway, I ran to the tricycle terminal because it was raining but was able to ride one safely. When I got to the entrance of our subdivision, I stayed there waiting for Papa with umbrellas. We walked the other way because Papa would be invited to drink and he did not want to so we took the long way. We got home and I told Mama that Papa went on a drink and she believed me. It was so funny. Anyway, I had dinner alone and then went to the room to finally end the long fun day.
