Visita Iglesia 2011

Visita Iglesia, literally means "visiting churches", a tradition followed by Catholics during Holy Week. People usually visit one Church to another and contemplate on the fourteen stations of the cross. Traditionally, seven Churches are visited with two stations per visit but some go as many as fourteen to complete the stations.

Visita Iglesia is usually done on Maundy Thursday so we had a full night ahead of us.

Hearty Breakfast - sardines and salsa with Gochujang

Lunch Shabu Shabu - love tofu


Visita Iglesia begins:
1. Damar Parish

2. Lourdes Church


A lot of people praying the stations of the cross.

3. Sto. Domingo Church


Cool how the red carpet is rolled on a wheel



4. Holy Redeemer Church

Jesus Christ is covered in cloth


If you can see the pencil writing, it actually indicated the flood level during Ondoy - which was as tall as my brother - 5ft 10inches




5. Sto. Nino de Violago - beautiful








I love the shell


6. Mt. Carmel - grand

They had a lot of Saints


7. Christ the King - last stop

KRIS KRINGLE: Something Big

I never thought it would be hard to find something BIG for Php 100 pesos ($2) I short listed the following for my fashionable friend: ...a big box of tissue (useful) ...a big toblerone (but this is WAY over budget) ...a big trash bin ...a case of big oatmeal cookies (last resort) ...a big mirror ...a big bookmark (which i couldn't find anywhere) ...a BIG beer (unrelated) ...a big organizer it's quite difficult really. But I must search for something else. PRESSURE! On a side note, Jamie treated us to Pizza Hut's Lechon pizza. After eating, I felt like I would pass out at any moment due to high cholesterol but it was quite tasty if you're a fan of Lechon (roasted pig). The pizza did taste a bit like Mang Tomas' lechon sauce. A big slice of Pizza hut's lechon pizza

Outfit post: black cardigan from f21 rompers from landmark chain belt from Mango tights from Samsung Fashion shoes from Rubi We also got free tickets for Narnia tonight. It was okay. The best part about the movie is that I got to see snow again(The movie was in 3D). We arrived quite late and I missed the first 10 minutes but my brother told me nothing much happened. I did miss a few great 3D effects. Ended the night with dinner at Recipes with Noj, April, Finj, Em, Rommel and Donna. Where Donna once again practiced her "bitch smile" aka Heart Evangelista smile.
