The FTV crew’s ability to balance fun, health challenges, and the demands of work makes this episode both entertaining and relatable.
🚗 Road Trip to Montreal
The day began with a family road trip to Montreal, promising time to relax and explore. With a packed car and a goal to make it before nightfall, the family set off with excitement. But life threw some curveballs—rush hour traffic, snowy roads, and a gout flare-up made the journey anything but smooth.
“Hinahabol pa rin natin na umabot sa Montreal ng may araw pa para makapasyal-pasyal pa.”
Despite the challenges, the road trip became a bonding experience, filled with conversations, shared snacks, and laughter.
😓 Gout and the Unexpected Challenges
One of the unexpected hurdles was a gout flare-up, making the day even more challenging for one of the crew members. Forgetting to stay hydrated the day before led to discomfort, but they pushed through with medication, ginger tea, and sheer determination.
“Kahapon nakalimutan ko uminom ng tubig kaya ngayon, bad trip! Lakaran pa naman ito.”
It’s a reminder that health should always be a priority, especially during busy seasons.
🎉 Christmas Party Joy
The highlight of the day was attending a Christmas party hosted by a workplace community. With performances ranging from lively Bruno Mars routines to heartfelt dances by the nursing community, the party brought everyone together in celebration.
“Ang daming nag-perform ng Bruno Mars—parang lahat yata yun ang sinayaw!”
The pressure to deliver a smoke machine on time for the performances added a touch of drama, but the crew pulled through, ensuring the event’s success.
“Mukhang nag-enjoy naman yung mga tao, kahit hindi perfect yung smoke effects.”
🎸 Creed Concert Nostalgia
While the road trip and party took center stage, Cherie added a musical twist to the episode with her plans to attend a Creed concert. A nostalgic favorite for many, Creed’s music brought memories of their iconic hits to life.
“Manonood ako mamayang gabi ng Creed—no way!”
Her excitement for the concert provided a lighter, fun element to the episode, showing how music can be a way to unwind and reconnect with the past.
❄️ Snowy Roads and Traffic
As the crew made their way to Montreal, snow and traffic added layers of unpredictability. The lack of winter tires didn’t help, but their determination to make it on time kept the spirits high.
“Medyo dumilim na at traffic pala dito. Pero mission accomplished—nakarating kami!”
The journey reflects the resilience required to adapt to the unexpected, especially during the holiday season.
🎶 A Night of Music and Togetherness
The Christmas party capped off the day with vibrant performances and community cheer. Sharing the experience with his wife, who is part of the nursing community, added a personal touch to the celebration.
“Nag-enjoy naman ako kasi kasama ko yung wife ko doon. Full support lahat ng mga nanood!”
The night ended with tired feet but happy hearts, proving that sometimes, the joy of the moment outweighs the challenges leading up to it.
