one of a kind festival

last sunday (011611).
it was the day of the sinulog grand parade (posted what it was about on my previous post.) we woke up late, around 11am. we didn't left alexa's house not until 2pm. we didn't even see the parade (bummer!) hahaha! but still, we had fun on our own.

(me, alexa, mary fel, mariel, aiken)


(thanks itsangelago for taking our picture, above.)








craziness kicked in..





(we had an afternoon snack at Tablea, alexa's treat! thanks A!)




after we went outside, we had a pseudo-house party at alexa's house. the music was so loud!
F.U.N.




we walked from alexa's house to KFC for dinner. it's just a walking distance. it was around 7pm and the streets were still full of people.


(waiting for my order. hungry! hahaha!)


(we saw a fireworks display when we were near alexa's house. cool.)

too bad, debbie (the senseless nana show) wasn't able to come because she's with her family! :/

my weekend started and ended great!
THANK YOU, BM! ♥

A's birthday

last saturday night (011511).
after the procession, we took a bath again because we got soaked from the rain and then we dined out at The Port to celebrate my friend's birthday: alexa.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LEX! ♥

the procession

last saturday (011511).
there are 2 processions a day before the Sinulog grand parade; the first is a fluvial procession with the statue of Santo Niño carried by a pump boat (dawn) and the second is a foot procession which takes place along the major streets of Cebu City (afternoon).

me and my friends attended the second procession. before the procession started, the weather was a bit gloomy but we expected that it'll rain pretty soon. before heading out to the streets, we took some pictures..









minutes before the devotees/crowd arrived in front of us, it rained REALLY HARD! [blessing!] ;)

devotees carrying Sto. Niño statues in different shapes/sizes.



..then the rain stopped when the statue of Sto. Niño arrived! [amazing, huh?]

it was an awesome experience even though we didn't really walked with the devotees/crowd. ;)
