Books and Food

Monday, 30 July 2007. It was my Dad's birthday. He would have been 63.

We usually have lunch or dinner at his favorite place (Kamayan on EDSA) but since it was a Monday, we just decided to have dinner at home (and also Mama didn't want to go out). Kuya texted and said he'll pass by the cemetery. I also wanted to go after office but it would already be too late, I wouldn't want to get caught there after dark (besides, it also rained). I just heard mass during lunch (I hear mass twice a week, Sundays and Mondays - my thoughts on a separate entry) and was also assigned to buy KFC for dinner (the kids' favorite).

Things I learned from my Dad:
1. Never ever think twice about spending on two things: books and food.
2. It’s okay if your clothes are ripped or torn, as long as they're clean.

Love you, Dad! Sobra!

naiinis ako! I submitted my comment twice this morning, yun pala di pumasok. hmph!...
anyway, my thoughts on this - My mom taught me na wag magpa-api. Kaya yan, nasasabihan tuloy ako na maangas. hehehe
