Weekend Schmeekend.

I wanted to blog about this weekend just because it seems like a lot has happened and the weekend's still not over (it's just 9:15am, Sunday).

Friday, April 16

• Went to work at 9am and did the usual stuff.
• Made the timetable for Jayvee's project. Timetable gave me a headache.
• Went to Galle, lunchtime. Ate at KFC. Met up with Carlo and Trish there, too.
• Got the stitches from teeth extraction removed. Jumped for joy when I learned I can smoke again.
  
• Watched Confessions of a Shopaholic at the dentist's clinic while waiting for Trish and Carlo get their teeth cleaned.
• Went back to Galle and met up with The Lion.
• Ate at this Korean restaurant across Metrowalk. Didn't know what the name of the place is. Food tastes good but it will make your breath smell really bad after a few hours.
• Went to The Lion's den. Was supposed to have coffee at a coffee shop near their place with business partners to discuss the projects that are lined up for this year. Stayed home and watched TV instead.
• Business partner called and said they will pick us up and we ended up in Quiapo. Lifted everything up to Him at Quiapo church then walked a bit to buy mangos and suman.
• Off to Pasig before midnight.

Saturday, April 17

• Late dinner at Ado's then they brought me home. Got home by 1am.
• Saw the Facebook page that I ranted about here while waiting for The Lion to get home.
• Slept for 2 hours tops then off to Batangas.
• Didn't get to sleep during the trip either because everyone else was except Tatay. Didn't want him to be the only one who's awake.
• Slept and ate the whole time in the beach. Didn't get to swim 'cause my bikini top didn't have those pads that were supposed to "hide" your nipples. Didn't want to swim, anyway, so...
• Slept again on our way home.
• Got home and talked to The Lion (who woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning) for a bit then slept again. Felt really tired even if I did nothing but sleep and eat in Calatagan.

Sunday, April 18. Only plan I have for today is to go to The Lion's den for his folks' anniversary dinner. Still don't know what time.

I just wanted to take note of this weekend. It's hella tiring.

There are things in life you need to let go of for you to be happy...

Right on, Father-from-the-chapel-in-Megamall!

What a conscience... (Hahahaha!)

I've finally decided to go to mass without the rest of the Tejadas (It has been, what? 4 years since the last time I went to church alone?). Upon entering the church, I had that overwhelming feeling of happiness and I thought "This is going to be good..."

I sat at one of those church seats (yeah, I dunno what they're called) up front and started thanking him and all that. Halfway through my personal prayer, I heard the commentator give the overview/summary of the Gospel for the day: THE PRODIGAL SON. I had to laugh. I dunno if it was a coincidence or I made it happen by thinking about it ("To think is to create") but either way, I got stunned.

I listened intently to the Gospel. I listened even more when the priest gave the sermon after the reading. I cried A BIT. His words struck every nerve. That's when I realized I came back home already.

Listening to the mass felt good. Having that decision to go to mass by myself felt good. Actually listening to a friend's advice felt good. Everything feels good right now. :)

Glad I came. :)
