How i wished when my mother died I was beside her

Hindi nawala sa isip ko till now nung araw at oras na namantay si mommy ko , sana ay nandoon ako mismo sa tabi nya, Siguro madali sabihin eto ngayon dahil eto lahat ay nakalipas na , ngunit pag ako ay naroroon sa loob ng room 720 sa mga oras na nag hihingalo si mommy at nag kakagulo ang mga doctor, nurses, mga aparato na nakakabit sa katawan nya, mga tubo sa bunganga, ilong, swero sa mga kamay at paa, marahil hindi ko makayanan tignan.

openning of classes brings some memories in my Grade school days,

When I was in grade school at La Salle Taft in the 1960,s here are some fond, and funny incidents that I always tell my son and daughter, it makes them laugh always.

1. I was the only child then, My parents are so serious about my studies that my dad usually tutor me 530am to 6am even though he was very busy then as a city chief executive, he is very good in Math , which I hate so much, Social Studies is one I excelled and I enjoy most.

at school in grade 1-A my home room teacher was Mss Marylyn Jamias, my mother always go to school every time we have some events, from Christmas party, birthdays and some very important events in our school calendar, while my Grand Mother Lola Moheng stays with me with a car and driver whole day, just outside the gate, sometimes doing needle jobs.

they always interact with my teachers and some future teachers, if they know that I have some difficulties in one subject like Math in grade 2, they try to know the background of my math teacher. like Mrs Leuterio living at Porveneir street , Pasay City, my father surprised her family by cementing their street asap. when she found out she right away volunteered to be my tutor for the rest of the year for free.
when the news among the faculty circulated, another teacher with initial B.G approached my Grandmother requesting that their street be cemented, I did not know these was going on then later i found out she is trying her best to make me in her home room class as`a "pasasalamat ""for cementing her street.

there was a time a very strict teacher then with initial miss F, teaching in grade 5 was a victim of snatching along Taft avenue. again some teacher informed my grandmother about the incident, in 24 hours a police mobile car went to our grade school office and return my Miss F watch and bags including the money she claims lost inside her bag, this becomes a wildfire news in our school then

At school was so engross about drawings about Dinosaurs and pirate ships, tht even during class hours i kept on drawing this stuffs. and I remember I don't draw at the back of a sheet of paper
one time in Science class in grade one, we were discussing about seasons in the Philippines like wet and dry and the seasons in temperate countries like summer, winter, fall and authum when i was busy drawing a pirate ship, to my surprise i was called to to enumerate our seasons in the Philippines........ I was so at a lost because I was not listening then, I just thought i was ask to enumerate the kinds of scissors in the Philippines (not seasons) so I answered ..... "regular scissors and thinning scissors"which made all my classmates laugh at my teacher Miss Jamias smile at me.... I knew about scissors because I am close to my barber at Coronado barbershop and he always explain to me what kind of scissors he used.

On te other hand at La Salle Taft I am a conscientious honor student from grade three to seventh grade, we have the honors assembly, were are called to the stage every quarter, i always have green star (fist honor) sometimes purple star (second honor) Iam a member of the La Salle honor society


One time I was asked by my teacher to accompany my classmate Roberto Feliciano to the school clinic due to fever, as we walked own the staircase going to the clinic, several Junior Police accosted us nd ask why we were on our way down the building when classes is abot to start.. my answer is " i will imitate him in the clinic" thes made them all laugh. I got mixed up in using accompany and imitate, I was in grade 2 then

manila memorial park visit june 6 with nana an family

this is me with my father visiting Mommy's niche at manila memorial park, eto ay ginagawa namin every week since mommy was interned at this memorial park, naka suot kay Dad ang explorer hat na bigay ni Elena.

You can see in my face I really enjoy my private life here. several years back my life and my family is so public, I hate those times, of having too many people around you where ever you go, security convoys , and power play, defeating your enemies, fighting them , out maneuvering them, wearing mask of pseudo friendship, having true enemies and not so true friends, I really missed these private and quite moments with my family, If you can just scroll back my blog, from my childhood to midlife, with several years of interregnum. the line between my private and public life is obscure. now nothing is more satisfying than driving my father myself at the wheel and cooking for him his favorite foods.
I like this picture of elena and Daddy, here you could see the smile on the face of Daddy. pinapatawa sya ni Elena sa MMP, this humid Sunday afternoon, we had donuts, sandwiches, and cold drinks, Daddy doesnt want to drink , not even sip because,he might needa toilet later

Elena trying out the Boonie hat for Dad, it is called Bonnie hat because it was made and designed for tropical travel. boonie...... from the Americanized taglish Boondocks..... BUNDOk or mountains.. coined word from the Philippines during the Philippine American war at the turn of the 2oth century
