My Semestrial Break

Did you enjoy your semestrial break? What did you do during those times? Was it unforgettable for you? Or you consider it as one of your worst experiences?
For me, it was worth remembering and I would not forget those moments. I would tell you the happenings in my life during this semestrial break.
Right after the clearance signing, after it was declared that we could already go home since we are all cleared, I directly went home. Then the day after that, Saturday- October 28, 2006, I just helped my mother in doing the household chores. Until another day came- Sunday- October 29, 2006, I and my family went to church to attend a 9:30 a.m. mass. After that we went to Ayala and went shopping. Then when it was already Monday- October 30, 2006, we just stayed at home and do the things to be done. At October 31, 2006- Tuesday, we went to the cemetery to visit my grandmother and grandfathers and great grandmothers. At the same time, we were there also to prepare for the coming All Soul’s Day. We painted it and cleaned it, too. After that, we went home. Then when I woke up, it was already past 9”o clock in the morning so I ate my breakfast and knew that the cousin of my father died just on October 31, 2006. I was sad for that even if we were not given the chance to now each other very well and even if we were not that close. At that afternoon, about 5 o’clock, we went to the cemetery to visit our relatives that already past away. Then when we went home it was almost 10 in the evening, so we decided to eat our dinner at Jollibee. When we were already home, I came to visit the chapel, and to see the face of the dead cousin of my father. Even if we were not close as I have said, I still prayed for him to rest in peace. I slept late this day. Then on November 2, 2006, I talked with my cousins there in the chapel where the dead body of the cousin of my father was laid. We also played chess, scrabble, badminton, and volleyball there. Then in afternoon, we had a grocery, getting ready for me to join the Youth for Christ’s Youth Camp or YFC and for my mother, father, and sister to attend a wedding- because my mother and father were chosen to stand as principal witness of my elder cousin’s vow, and my sister as a flower girl or to shower their aisle with flowers placed inside a cute basket. That night, I prepared the things I will need to bring in the Youth for Christ or YFC’s Youth Camp. This is the greatest experience of my whole semestrial break and maybe in my whole life. This is what I consider the best experience. Why? Because even it is break but I have done something good and I was closer to God.
