Saturday was pretty eventful for me, despite getting little sleep. We left the house early to visit Lola's grave and to pay respects to my uncle and Lolo. It was also that uncle's birthday, so that was interesting. We drove there with our other uncle on his tricycle and it was a really noisy ride there. We eventually got there and had no trouble finding their gravestone. We prayed for a bit, took a few pictures, ate some of the biko, and gave our offerings to the dead. We went to Vista Mall nearby afterward and we ate at Jollibee because our uncle wanted a burger. I initially covered for their food and my sister tried to get cat food, but to no avail. She then paid me for the cost of the food I ordered. We went home and it took us a while to get home, it was also as noisy going home as the ride there. But we all got home safe and we rested for a bit before going to our massage appointment at 5 p.m.

We got ready, booked a ride, and eventually got there on time. While inside, we were escorted to one room for us 3, and thankfully I had a section all to myself and covered with a "towel wall." We got our massages done and I actually fell asleep during it. I know that I was snoring and even snoring loudly, which was both funny and a bit embarrassing for me. Since it was 2 hours, I figured I would naturally pass out because it was a long time. We got our massages done and booked a ride to Greenbelt, but my mom and sister didn't seem to enjoy it much. I told them that my experience was nice enough and they could tell because I actually fell asleep through some parts of it.

After our massage, we went to Greenbelt (again) and I had to peel off from them so I could renew my Timezone gold card again, which would take a while. They went to buy a karaoke machine. I eventually got to Timezone and renewed my card, though renewing it was kind of a pain since I had to argue with a staff member there that I had already renewed my card at this location before and that I did have transactions on that card as recent as December. They eventually renewed my card afterward. Since I was still waiting for my Mom and sister, I sang karaoke at Timezone for a while. My mom and sister eventually arrived and we ate at Manam downstairs. The sisig was good and we tried their crispy pata and sinigang.

After eating, we went downstairs and to a nearby Starbucks so we could use the restroom. We booked a ride after that and we went home shortly. I bought medicine for my Mom and sister because they both were feeling under the weather.
