Another day, another story. Since it's Weekend and perfect for my Saturday because, this time I have sweet moment with these favorite people of mine. Actually, we can bond together rarely, we're all busy on our studies and personal matters. Since its Saturday and perfect for getting kalachuchi or temple flower for the design for the processions of Mother Mary. Actually, we're always assigned to pick kalachuchi or temple flower. Temple flower is one of my favorite flowers by its fragrance and cuteness. Picking this kalachuchi with Carmela, Theresa, Kent and Vince.

So this time, we're walking inside the Maryhills, looking for the kalachuchi. We went in the afternoon so it wasn't too hot. We reach this first kalachuchi plant trying to pick some flowers, even it is too high. We tried our best to get some flowers but it's to complex to get some. Finally, Kent had an idea on how to get those flowers. He used this branch of tree to make our work at ease.

Every flowers we picked we put it inside of the sack. We bring this sack for the flowers and we bring it wherever we go HAHAHA.

Carmela and Theresa are sisters, while me the supportive best friend for them. They're lovers but we're friends.

After a few moments of walking we're all tired. So, we're having a short relax in the stairs, while I'm enjoying taking a photo for this beautiful spot. I saw the oceans from afar,the leaves are dancing every glance of the wind.The fresh air of moment with sharing laughter are more than enough.

After we relax, we keep going until we saw this another kalachuchi plant. We hurriedly go there and picked all the flowers. Since, this plant no need to use anything, we can pick them using our hands. Vince and Kent are very gentleman, they usually picked all these flowers while I, Carmela and Theresa observing them with silly jokes HAHAHA. Since Vince haven't any idea he decided to climb this small plant to pick all these flowers. The flowers are too cute and the color itself is simple.

We're walking again, until we reach this last kalachuchi plant. So we tried our best again coz it's too high, and we're all small HAHAHAHA. So we pick these flowers and put it inside of the sack. Suddenly, when Kent shake the one of the branches,the kalachuchi gum suddenly fell down to the eye of Vince. Carmela hurriedly swipe the gum using her hands. They're so sweet HAHAHAHAH. Afterwards, Kent climb the kalachuchi to reach those flowers in the top. If he picked all of it, he catch it down to me and put it on inside of the sack.

(After)

We're done picking kalachuchi plant,so it's time to picking it off. We get a basin and put it with water. So, we helped each other to make this work easier. Then, we still have sharing silly jokes so that we don't feel any boring. At this time, we're laughing all of the time. They're all funny and sweet yet gentleman.

These are my best of friends, we shared good or bad stories. We even shared silly jokes if we want, we're concerned to one another and we care to make our friendship stronger. I am contented having these people who would change my life and give colors too. I am so glad that I met them here in Maryhills where the joy is priceless. We're servant of the Lord. Vince and Kent are sacristans, whereas, I, Carmela and Theresa are the Maryhills Choir. Even a single moment we shared, we much treasured it with all of our hearts. As long as we're all happy grateful, we much really appreciate it.

THANK YOU! HAVE A NICE DAY!
