Double Celebration

Dear Friend,

Happy Mother's Day to your mom! :D

Napasabay ang Mother's Day sa fiesta ng barangay dito sa amin kaya double celebration. We invited a couple of friends and my cousins who lived next door for lunch. Katuwa lang kasi ang ingay sa bahay. And as usual, everyone stayed to watch the fight of Pacquiao vs. Mosley lol. I didn't really watch it because I know Pacquiao is gonna win ;) lol.

I didn't attend our 6pm Mass service due to heavy rain. Malakas pa din ang ulan, buti nga hindi bumaha dito eh. Nagsimba na lang ako sa parish church namin dito.

During the mass, I can't help but observe the 7pm choir in our parish and compare it with STC and STPC. Nakakaloka lang kasi, masyadong engrande yung accompaniment nila. And what's worse, kinanta nila yung Joyful Joyful nung Offertory! Ang alam ko kasi hindi liturgical song un eh. Last year, they sang Halleluiah Chorus before the Gospel reading. I wonder how they were able to convince the parish priest to sing those songs... oh well.

Since I became a choir member in STP, I only attend mass in our parish (Nuestra Senora del Perpetual Socorro Parish) during our fiesta. Wala masyadong nagbago, except na lang siguro that the walls were newly painted and they placed a big picture of Mama Mary near the main entrance of the church. I don't feel any attachment to this parish, but it does bring certain memories when I was a kid. Nakakalungkot lang dito eh bahain kapag tag-ulan. Buti nga nung nagsimba ako eh umuulan lang at hindi bumaha.
