Project Babysitting: My Summer 2013

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Summer is the only thing I’m looking forward to. It’s the time where I can be nocturnal, the time where homework don’t exist and the perfect time to give ourselves the vacation we all want. I stayed my first week in our house, with a very productive cycle, sleep-eat-sleep-computer-sleep.

Trust me, it’s not really fun. But after a few days, my uncle asked me if I can stay with them in a few days because my female cousin didn’t have any companions. And furthermore, my uncle was always out because he is some sort of mechanic. My stay in their house was great, they have a lot of food and we can stay up all night while watching a bunch of movies.

My mom decided that she wants me to go home already (I don’t know why). But after a week , my aunt on my father’s side decided to have a reunion with my cousin’s (which was really awesome). So I agreed, then we went to their house at Imus, Cavite. It was really good to see them, and most of all, I missed them so much, we haven’t seen each other for years. This was one of the most unforgettable memories we have captured.
