It’s not often we get to spend time with relatives visiting from the Philippines for a family member’s wedding. Carmina's father was getting married in Tacloban , and everyone flew miles to attend the big day. On the first day of our arrival, before the event began, my cousin Mariles suggested we have dinner together. Mariles asked if we enjoy eating seafood, and I told her we do. Carmina messaged all the family members Mariles wanted to invite and asked if they were free for dinner. Mariles had informed everyone we'll be having dinner at Ocho Seafood & Grill located in Tacloban. My dad arranged for a driver so we could all ride together in a van. Upon entering, Mariles informed all the family members that she had already preordered our meals. The only thing we had to order was our beverages.

The only part in life I hate the most when your deadline is approaching. Your assigned group mates are not done with their share of responsibilities.
In limit time your project is due. You get all stress out thinking it won't be done on time.
Living in the Philippines there is a saying that they are always late. They don't come in time and they do things for the last minute.
This is what I hate so much when you have to deal with people who lack responsibility and your grade is also on that boundary.
Today, my son needed a project to be printed out for a project for school. It was a children's book that two of his classmates had designed.
Luckily I was able to find a place that closes at 6:00 PM. Most printing press companies close on a weekday at 5:00 PM. It is hard when you come home from school late in the afternoon. Still have unfinished projects to do and have to turn it in the next day.
There was a place that was able to save my son's project and other's group mates grade on the line.
The name of the place is called, Alfox Printing Services.
Here is their website: https://www.alfoxprinting.com/contact_us.html
I can highly recommend them. We came there 45 minutes until their closing hour. They we're able to accompany us and have my son's project done due to short notice.
My son placed all the projects in a usb flash drive.
They had use it to save his project on their computer.
Later when we had paid PHP 1,500.00 ($30.00) to make into a book. I was told to come back the next morning at 9:00 AM, My son had informed them he needed to turn it in before 10:00 AM.
As we went back home later after one hour had passed. The person from Alfox Printing Services had called me up to inform me they wanted my son to see the layout.
My son went back to their store. He came home with the children book all made and printed.
This is the first time in my life I felt so relieve for my son to be able to turn his project in time due to short notice.
