Graduation!

T (L - R) : Mark and I ; Wow! My award ako!
B (L - R): Mark is young enough to be my son! Look!

Holy bananas! I was kicking it at my room yesterday (sat) and my niece, Mark Al Joseph Vela, beckoned to me:
"Tito Allan, will you go to my graduation?" Well, got nothing to do, much as well go to that graduation. Mark is my cousin's (Ate Marie) son. She's in Egypt doing nurse work and his dad is in Dubai I think. So, Mark got no one but his titos and his grandmother (Mama) and his grandfather (Uncle Aling).

If I was not there no one would take pictures! Uncle Aling is nowhere to be found and the only persons left in Uncle's house is Kuya Marlon (who is counted to ZERO, long story, don't ask.), and the two helpers. So, no one is left to accompany him to the graduation but us. I took a quick bath (call time is 5pm), and grabbed my phone.

We arrived there on time. The graduating class is pretty small. I think less than 15. The graduation of the toddlers is fast. They performed few songs. It was CUTE! I want to pinch everyone of their cheeks until it is blood red! Mark's smile was gold. I never saw him that happy before. Though his parents aren't around, at least he got us.

I treated them to dinner and we went home. I was supposed to develop the pictures in Kodak but their bluetooth is busted and do not allow Motorolla phones to be connected. Anyways, I am feeling ALMOST the same way as Mark, I think, none of my brothers graduated with Papa around. So it almost feels like it.

Shet, feeling ko tuloy tumatanda na ko! Hehehe...
