I was supposed to post this on Tuesday, but I got busy and tired. Anyway, here is my vacation report. As promised, no paragraphs. Just a bullet-type post.
MAY 3 - My parents tell me and my brother all of a sudden that we'll be going to Agusan del Sur. Left for said province through ship at evening.
MAY 4 - Arrived in Trento, Agusan del Sur.
MAY 5 - Started spending time working at my grandfather's hardware shop.
MAY 6 - Nothing special.
MAY 7 - Started reading "Densha Otoko" ("Train Man") at OneManga.com. Made the Psychology Society website online.
MAY 8 - Changed the web host of my website. At hardware store, a kid called me *gulp* UNCLE. Visited a nearby inn in the hills managed by my uncle.
MAY 9 - Bought new toothbrush to replace broken old toothbrush.
MAY 10 - Sale at the streets near Trento Public Market (happens every Saturday).
MAY 11 - Mother's Day. Ice cream galore.
MAY 12 & MAY 13 - Nothing special.
MAY 14 - Picture taking at the hardware. (Hopefully, I shall post some soon.)
MAY 15 - Nothing special.
MAY 16 - Grandpa's hardware gets new employee named Simon. (Names changed to protect privacy.)
MAY 17 - 20-year-old Simon called 18-year-old me *gulp* UNCLE. (Man, do I really look that old?)
MAY 18 - Went to shopping warehouse. Bought chocolates for mom as belated Mom's Day gift. Finished "Densha Otoko"
MAY 19 - Sent the photos.
MAY 20 - Aunt and her family who migrated to New York arrive in Trento.
MAY 21 - Toured my US-migrated cousins around Trento. We got souvenirs from US: most notably a big box of Oreos (YUM!) and Swiss Milk choco drink powder.
MAY 22 - Spent time with extended family at Mainit Hot Springs in nearby province of Compostela Valley.
MAY 23 - Tour with extended family at Davao Crocodile Park and SM Davao in Davao City.
MAY 24 - Bought new flannel jacket at Saturday sale for PHP 100 (less than US$ 2)
MAY 25 - Coming-home party for my aunt and her family who migrated to New York and arrived in Trento.
MAY 26 - Departure.
OTHER NOTES:
- I've been called UNCLE at least six times, mostly from kids who seem to be around 10-14 years old. But the amusing yet scary one was Simon calling me that word even though he's older than me.
- I got to eat the ice cream!
- Internet was available 24/7 at my grandma's house.
- A drawn version of my jacket will be shown on my submission for Kami's Contest.
And that's all I can say. HAVE A NICE DAY.
