Summer in the Philippines starts when most school year ends. Even with this climate change when December heat is at par with April and May temperatures, summer will always have to be March, April, and May months.
I always miss summer at home. Back when i was a kid, this meant endless playtime with my neighbor cousins, and occasional trip to the beach. It meant waking up late, and ice candies and halo-halo. It meant afternoon and late-night tvs. It meant drying palays (which i abhor). It meant pansit and sinapot for merienda. It meant daily cleaning inside and outside the house, washing dishes (which i hated as a kid). It was just a time to be with the whole family.
Seeing this network station ID makes me teary-eyed. Kindly excuse my sentimental side. I always think how awful this country is because of corruption and poverty. Or how i sometimes wish I was born and raised in another land.
This video makes me feel proud however. Our country is beautiful. And what's more beautiful is that we have this humor that some nationality thinks is corny and weird. We mourn for what is lost but we never fail to laugh and smile inspite of it all.
