29th of October


This is a good day and hassle free at all, today is a local election for barangay officials so no traffic and less vehicles on the road. i came up early at the hotel at around 7:30 am and my work time is 8:00 am, I'm not late this time and the good news no hassle on work it's low occupancy right now because of this coming November 1. all souls and all saints day are two days to come and most of them are going to their provinces early to avoid the traffic and the rush hour.

I and my wife are planning to go home in siniloan laguna to visit our relatives in the cemetery and to pray for their souls. we will go there in the 1st of November in the morning and after that we will come back in calamba on the 3rd of November so we have 3 days vacation that we will spend there in siniloan with our relatives and i hope that my kids will enjoy their vacation with their cousins and Friends.

We do these every year it's a Filipino tradition on all souls day the Filipino family visits their relative in the cemetery to pray for their souls it's in our culture and many Filipino are planning ahead of time for what will they do and what they will bring in the cemetery. many of them bring foods, soda's and candles to light up while they are praying, and some of them bring cards and other games to play but let's not do that, we must know that this is a time to pray for the souls of our love ones to be in peace and to offer them a prayer will help there souls to feed and to be peaceful where ever they are.
