Yesterday was the one-year anniversary of the death of my grandmother. We had a mass for her at my aunt’s house yesterday. After the mass we had food. We ate pancit, spring rolls, pan de sal (Philipinne Bread), and orange chicken. Next year we will have to go to the Philippines to the cemetery to visit her for the two-year anniversary of her death. We are not allowed to wear reds, pinks, orange, or any shades of these colors. After we go to the cemetery next year we will be able to wear all these colors and any color we like to. I miss her so much because my mom was a single parent raising me all my life and she was there to take care of me while my mom worked. She picked me up from school, took me to school, and took me to the mall. As I grew older I didn’t get to see her much because she lived in the Philippines with my grandfather. He has a business there so he never came to live in the united States. I wasn’t able to go to see her before she died or to the funeral because I had school. I did see her in August of 2005 but I didn’t go see her May of 2006. All her children went to see her and were able to see her right before she died. I will always love her.
