Our 5-day vacation in Manila last 13 to 17 November was so fast! Every single day was filled with schedules and meetings for the wedding.
Pre-Cana Seminar
Mt. Carmel Church
November 13, 2010
Our first stop was our Pre-Cana seminar in Mt. Carmel. Doms and I were both so tired from the flight that we had the night before. We arrived in Manila at 4am and we need to be in Mt. Carmel at 8:00 am for the seminar.
Naturally, we were sleepy. But, as the day progressed and the different speakers of the seminar came in, we became interested in the seminar and we honestly had a good time.
There were about 16 couples in the seminar. The first part of the seminar was sharing to everyone in the room how we met and what made us decide that this person beside me is the person I will marry. We heard a lot of stories and we really enjoyed each one of them. I particulrly liked our sharing because i love sharing our love story. I even recorded what we said!
Anyway, after lunch, the session tackled on human sexuality. The person in charge of the talk was so funny that we didn't feel sleepy at all!
The afternoon session was our favorite. It talked about family planning and some tips and secrets on how to make couple's sex life interesting. We were laughing all through out the session!
The day concluded and Doms and I were fetched by my family and we ate dinner in Banaple and then wew ent staright to meet Doms' friends.
