at 12:30 in the afternoon we went to Our Lady of Grace for a Sunday Mass..as compared to the Philippines, the mass here is a little different, like the prayer Apostle's Creed, their version is longer. and the prayer Our Father, they use "give us this day our daily bread and forgive those who trespass against us", and I also noticed that everytime they respond to say Amen in some parts of the mass ,we had to raise our hands!!..hmm..what else?. oh yeah!. when the priest told us to give each other a peace sign ..just as when i was about to bow to this man like how i learned to practice it...he suddenly reached over and shook my hand, i got startled!.didn't expect that their sign of peace was by shaking each others hand!.:]] i just gave him a BiG grin!.hahaha!:D then the mass ended..the priest was outside saying hi!. to the people..blah..blah..then mommy said "bless kayo!" ok..bless naman kami:]] but one thing i noticed that only filipinos were the only ones who went to the priest and blessed..i just smiled!.haha!:]].then we went home and ate lunch..that was about 2pm.. then after having lunch we went to Ikea and shopped for things that lola needs for her kitchen like pans,wine holder,lola's "pamalengke" bag:],spatulas,mats,tray,coasters,pepper grinder,cheese grater,can opener, knife sharpener and even bed sheets!.and many more!. the bill was about $$$ haha!!:]] we also had a chance to eat there, i ordered fish and chips (chips btw means french fries) lolo ordered sweedish meatballs with mashed potatoes,gravy and lingon berry sauce, it was new for me but it tasted yummy!alex ordered mac and cheese,lola ordered apple pie,mom ordered meatballs and fries and ninang ordered chicken pilaf..after that we went to food for less to buy some food..and finally!!. went home.mommy made some 'bleeding' steak and baked potatoes for dinner!.haha.wooo!.what an exhausting day!.but! it was fun!:] 'till my next post!.bbye at Ikea:]
