Gone to Tahanan ni Maria, Carmona Laguna for our NSTP class exposure trip.
We visited yung mga Lolo at Lola na abandoned na ng mga sari-sarili nilang pamilya. There were 50 of them.

Food + Committees
Lola and Lolo sang for us after the gift giving. Sweeeeett!! <3 Makes me miss my Lolo and Lola.
Before we go, there's this Lola na ingglesera, gusto na nya sumama samin paalis.. She's saying ng paulit ulit "take me, if I get out of here i will be okay". I got her picture while crying pero ayoko i-publish.. Sinabihan kami na wag kumuha ng photo showing their faces, but I did. Sorry Management. I'm not posting it anyway.
So here, a very tiring but fun experience. Realizing na they were abandoned ng mga sari-sarili nilang anak. Doon na namumuhay. Imagine, bawal silang lumabas.. Tapos medyo dulo at kaloob looban pa yung place nila. Okay naman daw yung food. Okay naman lahat. Pero still, thinking na ikaw mismo doon nakatira. Wala ng pamilya. Mahirap.
So siguro, we should do value our Lolo's and Lola's while they're still alive. And hey, hindi masamang tumulong sa kapwa. Relieving. Kahit sa small things na napasaya mo sila.. Napakalaking tulong na yun. And I am happy we did this, Really.
Maybe you could visit them sometime.
