We are not fond of attending the midnight mass. It’s hard because that would mean I have to prepare for noche buena ahead of time.
We did it once pero hindi na naulit.
The night before, we all agreed that we would take the 10 of 10:30 mass. It was bound to be broken because we were all puyat.
We made it to the 12 noon mass but we arrived at 12:10.
Because we were late, we expected to stand the whole time but surprisingly, the church was not full, maybe most people had gone to mass the night before or earlier that morning.
We volunteered to take photos of other families. If you want to do something good to others without spending a cent, be a free photographer to others. It felt good and it’s a free way of making other people happy.
After the mass, we went back to our house to pick up the sansrival, then we joined the Yee family for the yearly Christmas lunch at the residence of Edmund’s mom. The ones missing were Edward and family who are now based in Vancouver, Canada. His eldest son attended the lunch too.
