Out of town, out of sorts
I finally finally made it back to La Union. Though half-hearted at first, the only regret I had about going there is that we couldn't sleep at my grandfather's house because termites had eaten most of the rooms away. Of the 6 rooms, only two were available for occupancy, and my uncle's daughters and grandchildren went home, too. My uncle and his family have been living there so there was no choice but for us to stay in another place. We went to an uncle's house about 2 streets away and only dreaded night time because the room we stayed in was so small, and the electric fan made such a racket we felt we were sleeping inside a helicopter. Half-sleeping, that is. I was barely able to sleep 4 straight hours.
Anyway, Saturday night saw me and the family having dinner at footprintinblue's other house. The next day we were treated to lunch in yet another house. Sarap talaga ng feeling pag welcome na welcome ka. That evening we went to Naguilian where my step lola lives. She moved there after lolo died. There were too many issues with my uncle's wife so lola decided it's better to live alone than to face continuous conflict with the aunt. Poor old lady. My mom used to not like her.
The next day we went to Baguio where I had my first ukay experience. I didn't buy much. The prices were high, and the skirts non-negotiable so I only got a few pieces. Peak season kasi kaya ganun.
We got back to Manila around 2 am today. A bit sick because of lack of rest/sleep I'm uneasy but excited for my real 20-day vacation with my sister. It doesn't really matter where I go for as long as I can rest. Staying at home with my DVDs would actually be fine. Pero syempre, it can't hurt to know that where I'm going I'll be able to shop for free because my sister already promised me that aside from my ticket, she would also shoulder my shopping expenses. Yay! How I love her.
