My mom might stay at the Manila Sanitarium/Hospital tonight with my grandparents. Oh well.

I went with my mom to the Sanitarium last Friday night as soon as I got home. Kuya Nonong picked us up and drove us home as well. When we got there, I found out that my grandmother is in the ICU while my grnadfather is in a different hospital suite in the same floor. Most of my relatives know that Mamang will leave us sometime sooner or later. I got to take a little peek inside the ICU though I was kinda afraid to go.

I have to admit, I don't know my grandmother very well. I'm closer to Grandma, my paternal grandmother(she died a couple of years ago in the room that used to be my bedroom. Anyway, Grandma lived with us, took care of me ever since I was born, and even taught me how to play card games. Mamang was way different. She was from Zambales, and hardly spoke a word of Tagalog. I could only understand what she was saying if she spoke in English. Plus, since she's also suffering Alzheimer's disease, she almost always forgets who I am.

While I was bumming around at home early yesterday afternoon, my mom called, telling me to come to the Sanitarium again. So Kuya Nonong picked me up again. Halfway there, he asked me if I wanted to see his firstborn son (who was born a couple of weeks ago). Well, of course, I couldn't refuse. He picked up Ate Neneng first at the Sanitarium then off we went to Our Lady of Lourdes hospital, where little Gabriel Joshua Loba is temporarily staying. Aw, I didn't get to see him, coz he's still in the incubator.

Anyway, since we got hungry, we decided to stop by Harrison Plaza first to eat and buy some groceries. Heheheh, I got to eat at Tokyo Tokyo for free. ^_^

Now I wonder what's to do today. I got so bored this morning that I pulled my hair up so that it looks as if I cut my hair really short again. Heheheheh, I wonder if I should wear my hair this way on Wednesday.
