This monday morning I feel so terrible and depressed as always. I just miss my family so much. My Papa just came back from US and they are all having tremendously fun time in Paranaque. I can't help but to be sad and wishing I'm also there.... But I was stuck at home watching CSI Season 8.

My Papa was the best guy I've ever known, besides from my many guy friends and of course my Jae. He is not the perfect father, but I know he is the best one that any kids can have. My kids love my dad, he loves children so much, maybe that is the reason why we are 10 siblings in the family.He loves to drink, when we have this talyer way back, he always use to drink 3-6 bottles of San Miguel Pale Pilsen and can finish 1 whole box (case) by himself.... So he is alcoholic...

My dad is the coolest, he taught me how to drive at the age of 13. I am having difficulty to reach the pedals but that experience was awesome! How cool my Papa!?! He always brings us to fiesta carnival or COD at Araneta Center to watch the thingymajig during Christmas Season. We live in Paranaque and we go long way to North just to go malling.... And go for our groceries at Cherry Fuderama in Mandaluyong. He loves to hug and kiss and loves to talk. He is very open and vocal to say I Love You Anak, even I am married he often calls me in SG and say " I LOVE YOU" sincerly. He even call us names... My eldest sister Angel is called NGUSO, he calls me MUKHA, Cresil is called TUHOD, Floyd is called RAMBO, Alvin is called BEHO, he name Claresse BUMBAY, ALLAN as NONI, Emelaine as MANE, James as ILONG and Vincent.... as Vincent. Lahat kami sa bahay may binyag... I was in Grade 5 when he left for US. I was sad... pretty sad, because I am a Papa's girl. Because I look like him... kaya sabi nila nung bata ako, panget ko daw, kase mukha akong lalake. But Papa loves me so dearly. Kase walang may favorite sa akin... Hahaha So this afternoon, my husband called me from our house in BF, they are about to go home in Laguna... I heard my Papa's voice in the background and Jae passed the phone to him... I feel sad... and I wish I'm there to help him finish all the Pale Pilsen he bought. My dad just said... "Miss me anak? Come home... I'll call you once I get a SIM Card, and we will have kwentuhan...."

Thats my Papa. I have a lot of great memories with him. He ask any questions and he loves to listen. From learning how to ride a bike and to drive... To have a so... I was there when he was making kwento to my husband what position is the best to have a son... believe me my Papa is an expert after having 5 sons with my mom. My dad is palikero, but I never hate him because is he responsible as always, even I am married...

Love you Papa. I miss you
