Oooopppssss...tomorrow is the big day! not today! hahaha. im just soo excited to post about it. grabe, everyone is sooo excited to know kung benjamin ba or francesca simone. hehe. actually, there are days na feeling ko boy sya, pero madalas kong feeling eh girl sya. hihihi. kasing kikay ng mommy! :) will post agad as soon as the ultrasound is done and will text friends agad.
basta prayer ko lang kahit girl pa sya o boy sya eh maging normal si baby tan. physically normal, kumpleto ang development nya and cute sya, bibo, mabait na mabait, matalino, musically-gifted, maputi (?!), and kasing galing ng daddy nya magpatawa! hahaha. yun lang naman ang gusto ko...sabi diba, ask and you shall receive. hehe.
~o~
i tried on my two gowns for the weddings that we will attend to this november (jill's) and december (jane's). grabe! feeling ko puros tela ang gowns ko! waaah! i know kasi malaki na talaga me pero ang problem kasi, lumalaki lang talaga is tiyan ko. so maluwag sa likod yung gown na parang wala me butt. plus, masikip lahat sa boobs! naks! feeling boobsie! nyahaha. eh kasi boobs at tyan ang lumalaki sa ken eh dahil balakang ko matagal na malaki. bwahaha! parang bigla nga me na awkward having to see myself in a formal gown. naaalangan ako bigla. pero okay lang, basta para sa bestfriend and SIL ko.
~o~
this saturday is jill's surprise bridal shower! di naman nya nababasa tong blog ko so im sure she wont know. nag-fifish na nga ng information eh kung kelan daw shower nya. sabi ni naan, wala kme plans. hahaha. and ginamit naming actor and actress si naan and jason.kunwari magpo-propose si jason sa isang hotel and papupuntahin si naan dun. papasama kunwari si jill, biglang pag pasok nya sya pala ang masusurprise! hihihi. i hope everything goes well. which reminds me, have to print pa the guest sheets and the game mechanics.
~o~
i had a good 4-day vacation. i mostly stayed at home as i did'nt want to go out din dahil kakapagod lang. and nag-shop na kme nung oct. 31 ni simon sa megamall. sa sobrang hirap nga makauwi, nagpalipas muna kme ng time watching "Open Season". nice yung movie except that for some parts, naka-idlip ako. hahaha. super pagod kasi me dahil from 2:30 p.m. andun nako sa megamall. i bought another blouse! di kasi me makakita ng nice na pants eh. isa pa lang ang maternity pants ko. gusto ko na rin mag-christmas shop!!!
~o~
congrats to tanya for the baby and to Meng for Issen! welcome to the world Issen! daming buntis! hehe.

The one with an itchy feeling
Im 5 months and 3 days na! yahoo! 3 months and 2 more weeks to go!!! two weeks from now, the endless bet on whether baby tan is a francesca or a benjamin will finally end. Nov. 7 is our schedule for our ultrasound. we are still thinking if we want the 3d ultrasound or not. i heard from a co-w@wie that there's a cheaper rate in De los Santos hospital ata. not so sure but we'll check. siguro pag 7 months na para we can really see baby tan's face. (kung kamukha ko ba o si simon.hehe)
I feel super happy that our little bundle of joy has made Simon soooo ecstatic and talaga nga naman na kahit pagod sya from work, pag uwi nya, sasabihin ko na gumalaw si baby and kikiss nya tummy ko and kakausapin si baby. haaayyy...saya! he'd always tell baby na love nya si baby. excited na sya turuan si baby kumanta and tumugtog. hahaha. and he will always put his ear on my tummy to hear baby's heartbeat. wala lang, tumatanda na talaga ako!!!
Baby Tan is getting really active since i got on my fifth month. promise! walang araw that i wont feel him/her move. meron mga times na para syang nagsi-swim, minsan nagkikick...etc. and since lumalaki na tyan ko, im starting to feel the itch sometimes. it's not so often pero i bought na rin shea body butter from body shop and the Elovera cream prescribed by my OB. after i take a bath, mega moisturize ang whole body...sarap! hehehe.
friends are starting notice that my nose is getting slightly bigger than before (?!) as in talaga?! in denial pako eh. hehehe. pero yung face ko feel ko na lumalaki na talaga. pero yung nose, ayoko ata tanggapin?!?! hahaha.
We checked in with our friends last Oct. 23 at Astoria Hotel. wala lang, we just want to have fun and unwind sana dahil wala naman pasok the following day because of Ramadan. Nag-playstation ang mga boys, nag-swim and nag chikahan ang mga girls. we are 3 couples plus jannet. super fun! it has always been exciting when im with my besties. parang my world suddenly stops pag kasama ko sila. yung parang wala ako iniisip na iba pag sila kasama namin...basta masaya.
And first time ko mag-swim na preggy me. With the exception of our bohol trip since I was not aware that I was pregnant then. Anyway, I had so much fun. Mejo mabigat nga lang pakiramdam ko than before and nakakatuwa when the lifeguard asked Naan kung buntis ba daw ang kasama nya…finally, mukha na talaga akong buntis!!! Hahaha. Pero natatawa din ako with myself coz wala na mag-fit sa ken na swimsuit and I wasn’t able to buy a new one. I just wore a spandex top and board shorts na super haba naman. Nyahaha. pics to follow, as usual.
o cge, more kwentos to come...uwi nako.

The one with company anniversary
Another event took place last night at the Crowne Plaza Hotel...grabe, sunod-sunod ang mga events...at least i think this is the last main event for this year. yey! here's a pic of how we looked last night. our theme is Oscar's awards kaya lahat kme...gaganda at gwapo!

hehehe...halata bang preggy me dyan?!
i bought the dress at People are people...super rush yan kasi talagang i didnt have the time to look for a dress because i took a rest the whole weekend. i had cramps kasi last thursday night because of stress siguro and took the whole day off ng friday. kawawa nga si baby. i felt guilty at the same time kasi im overworking without thinking of my baby. kasi kung ako lang, kaya ko talaga, but my baby wants to rest at certain time of the day. haaayyy...napaiyak nga ako nung Friday morning kasi the first time i had the cramps, nag rest lang me and i felt fine. eto medyo it took a while before i felt better. im sorry baby ha but i promise to take it easy for you...love ka ni mommy and daddy lagi...
on a lighter note, Simon took me shopping for maternity clothes! yahoo! ang saya! he bought me pants and two blouses. actually, love ko yung fabric nung blouses...para syang kamiseta...pero di ko talaga gusto yung may tali sa likod. hehehe. i saw this really nice store in Rustan's..positive signal and brand and this is what i bought naman.

this is how i look like at exactly five months...ang nice nung blouse noh?! and ang laki na ng tyan ko!!! hihihi...
hehe...more kwentos to come...and pictures! work muna me.

The one with The moves...
October 1, at exactly 4pm, we felt baby T's movement for the first time! grabe, sooo precious! The feeling is overwhelming! Tawanan nga kme ng tawanan eh kasi super saya. Prayer kasi talaga ni simon that he’d be there when I feel the movement para ma-feel nya rin daw. And answered prayer sya! Naramdaman namin pareho. Kasi at first, I felt a big pop sa right side of my tummy. Then, I told it to simon. Nasa bed kme nun eh. I told him to feel my tummy and he put his right cheek sa tummy ko. Pag lagay na pag lagay nya, he felt a soft kick sa kanya! Haha. Sinipa sya ni baby! Ako naman, it’s like butterflies in my stomach. As in, nag titingle sya. Ang galing! God is good! can't wait naman for the baby to kick and tumble. nyahaha.
October 5 - First day at the World Trade center for the Agri-link. grabe, successful launching and exhibit! taob lahat ng ibang exhibitors! yung booth namin ang the best!!! can you imagine a spa inside the World Trade Center?! hanep! plus, we had the human statues for our entertainment. everyone was stopping by and looking at our gimmicks. nakakasarap ng feeling when you hear people say na "ang galing naman nyan", "ang ganda naman ng booth nila", "wow, pano yan?!" hahaha. thank you Lord.
October 6 - Sumabay kme kala jane pauwi and dropped by na rin sa greenland to say hi to the inlaws. ang cool! when i saw nanay (simon's lola) bigla gumalaw si baby...si simon nakaramdam kasi hawak nya tummy ko. everytime he'd touch it, gusto ni baby. when mommy alma touched baby, gumagalaw. tuwang-tuwa sila! hahaha. ang saya nga naman! more stories and pictures to come...talagang pa-suspense epek! hehehe.

The one with the week that was
Grabe, Melenyo really hit Manila hard. it was a thursday and buti na lang i followed my baby and did'nt attempt to go to work at baka madulas nga ako sa daan. i even texted my boss na half day ako...yun pala walang pasok. i just pray that all those na nasalanta will be taken cared of by the government especially the street kids na walang nasilungan during the typhoon and sana rin lahat ng provinces na affected will be able to rise from this soon.
syempre, pag malakas ang hangin, walang kuryente. as in, kakakaba kasi i can see the 'yero' literaaly being torn from the roof and lumilipad na parang papel. yikes! eh scary kasi our sliding window sa taas, walang grills so pag nasalpukan ng bato or yero, sira agad! pero simon and i managed to entertain ourselves despite the 'no-kuryente' situation. we played ice breaker, he cooked maling ala afritada(haha, wala na kasi food, puro canned goods na lang ang nasa house kaya napilitan me kumain ng canned goods) that's why simon put veggies na lang and tomato sauce para naman masarap and nutritious pa rin. yung ice breaker naman, katuwa pala maglaro nun. as in, kahit gano mo kakilala ang husband mo, you'll still discover sooo many surprising and wonderful things about him.
we still have half of a cheesecake to finish. kasi my good friend na AE namin in richmonde gave me a whole cheesecake. i wanted to bring some sa office kaya lang wala na rin kme microwaveable containers (talking about need for a grocery) pero actually, madamot lang ako at gusto ko ako lang kakain ng cheesecake! haha, joke! im trying to control myself nga and i dont wanna gain weight nama dahil dun.

cge nga, tempting diba?!
~o~
i started to make this Preggo journal two weeks ago. it's all in my PC wherein i write the things i like for the day, any unusual feeling, any developments, food i ate, my waistline (!), bust line(hmmm...), and hip size (nyeh, what's new?!) galing sya coz i also dont want to forget anything about my pregnancy. been looking kasi for a pregnancy journal but really can't find one kahit saan. and i also want to remember important things especially pag reporting na sa OB ko. hihi, OC ba?!
im still thinking if i want to include it in a blog, either a separate one or here pero bahala na si batman. hehe. pero for some details lang, my bust is 37.5" na. i had two measurement taking last sunday for two weddings na abay ako. my waistline is 32", my pusod is beginning to pop already, halfway na. my belly is getting really big. yihee, na-cucurious kung ano itsura ko now. hahaha.
~o~
i have 4 new pants. im not sure what it's called pero yung yung parang spandex na cotton ang tela na super sarap sa katawan. hindi sya pang preggy pero swak rin at my stage right now kasi stretchable sya. ang ganda talaga plus super comfy!! i bought green, brown, black and gray. hehe. minsan lang may pwede sa ken na pants eh so i grabbed them all and P150 lang each! ang cool!now, i need new sandals naman. :D
~o~
oh syempre, saturday ngayon pero im at work. :( i hate leaving simon alone at home. este, kasama nya pala si baby ross na super kulit now. tapos na ang mga shots nya and we plan to give him a bath as soon as the sun comes up. he's so big and long na. dami nya ningangatngat ngayon na nakaka-aliw minsan pero si simon naiinis. for one, nangatngat nya na sofa set namin. yung isa lang naman actually pero yikes! halata sya. pinapagalitan nga namin kaya lang everytime i see him na papa-cute, nawawala na yung galit ko. plus, he's just a puppy. nasa stage talaga sya na makulit. but we'll train him soon para magbait sya.

The one with Merry Christmas
wohoo! it's september na and i just heard in a grocery store christmas songs airing! galing! sooo excited for christmas! hehe.
pero this post is about an experience that happened to us last friday, september 1. to think that it's the first day of a "ber" month and eto pa nangyari sa amin. after work, we regularly go to the Basic Taxi line for transportation. two reasons, im pregnant and since bhabes is not in good condition, we opted to just ride taxis to and from the office. second, we dont want the hassle of long lines in FX or hear complaints from other taxi drivers. that is why, despite the additional fare of 50 bucks, we still ride the Basic taxi. oh trivia on the side, Basic, Avis, Davis taxis are owned by the same corporation. :)
so anyway, when we went to the line in shang mall, it was a friday and pay day so we expected that there'd be a long line waiting for us. true enough, it took us almost an hour before our turn. and when it was our turn na, manong talked to the driver and told him na "Regular passenger, junction, plus 50". sabi nya lang, traffic daw dun pero he did'nt say anything else. he still started driving. on our way out of the shang mall, bigla na lang sya huminto. as in, in the middle of the road, bigla na lang nawalang ng kuryente. pero may aircon, radio, etc. he started again pero nothing. after trying to start the engine twice, tinabi na ng driver. we were expecting at least that he'd radioed other drivers for back-up so we'd be accommodated. eh ang ginawa, inutusan pa kme to go back to the freaking line!okay lang sya! sabi ni simon, "eh bat kme babalik, ikaw magsabi dun na magpadala ng taxi dito." a guard approached him and asked him what happened. di sya makasagot, basta kunwari lang sira taxi nya. at eto pa ang masama, he asked us to hail a taxi dun sa may kanto..marami daw dun! eh kung di ba naman sya isa't kalahating syongak?! my husband flared up...and so did i. bat kme mag-aabang kung saan after namin mag-intay for an hour diba?! we then decided to go back to the line to report it to manong and the ticketer. turned out na madugas daw talaga yung manong na yun. i told them na mukang walang sira ang taxi nya and he did something on the car to make it look like it's sira. sabi ko, "manong, i've been driving for 6 years and alam ko kung may sira talaga ang taxi..and i know ginogoyo lang kme nun. kung ayaw nya kami isakay, he should have told that to you before umalis."
when we got in the next basic taxi, my husband called the hotline agad and i asked him that id be the one to talk to the customer agent to place the complaint. nang-gagalaiti talaga ako grabe. narinig nung driver and he does'nt know the driver pero told us that meron daw pwede gawin para magmukhang nasiraan yung taxi. Basic taxis kasi are LPG, and not gas. pero may switches pa rin ang gas and LPG dun. if you switch it to gas, na syempre walang laman...natural, di mag-start diba?! now we know!! ganun ang ginawa ni driver. how did we confirm it? when we passed by the spot where we left him...wala na sya! kung sira talaga yun...it would'nt start agad diba?! syongak talaga!
the plate number nga pala is TWS 574. Unit No. 751, Banua ang name ng driver. if you happen to see this, don't ride this taxi...unethical talaga! id want to see him get fired! attitude is sooo unacceptable. nonetheless, we'd still ride Basic taxi coz we dont want to generalize naman what happened to us.
whew! that's a vent out ha... hehehe.
pero this post is about an experience that happened to us last friday, september 1. to think that it's the first day of a "ber" month and eto pa nangyari sa amin. after work, we regularly go to the Basic Taxi line for transportation. two reasons, im pregnant and since bhabes is not in good condition, we opted to just ride taxis to and from the office. second, we dont want the hassle of long lines in FX or hear complaints from other taxi drivers. that is why, despite the additional fare of 50 bucks, we still ride the Basic taxi. oh trivia on the side, Basic, Avis, Davis taxis are owned by the same corporation. :)

The one with ...
three dotted lines because i dont know how to entitle this blog. i've been pregnant for 3 months already and after reading the blog of a fellow w@wie sister, mhay ni jerry, i just can't help but feel overwhelmed. was just too embarassed to cry while reading her blog story on birthing kasi nasa internet cafe lang ako and i've strangers beside me. pero her post really caught me. the way she told it kasi was so detailed and i can actually feel her anticipation, excitement, at kung ano-ano pa.
everyone wants to have a normal delivery and having to go through a CS birth is really taxing, physically, emotionally and financially. kaya parang ninerbyos tuloy ako na baka maging CS rin ako. if that will be the case, walang saysay ang balakang ko na nimana ko pa sa mom ko. hehe. oh btw, my mom gave birth to us three thru CS. ok fine!
pero seeing your baby can really turn all your pains to happiness and joy. haayy!!! mixed emotions ako right now. para kasing we are sooo excited with the baby, and everyone around us is excited for us also kaya we dont think about CS, yung sakit that i've to go through, and other things. hahaha. ano ba?! mag-emote daw ba?! kahit ano naman siguro okay pa rin sa ken basta para sa baby ko. haaayy!
i went to my OB right now and im okay na naman. we heard again the baby's heartbeat. and pwede na ulit ako mag-byahe!!! pero sa malapit-lapit lang muna. i've an event kasi on saturday sa laguna. good thing that na-clear na kay doc. what i like about my OB is that she's so calm on everything kaya ang saya rin.
oh and lastly, i gained 4 pounds in a span ok one week! sa 3 weeks that i've been weighing, no weight gain and happy me. eh nag-bday daw kasi ako eh kaya tumaba ako!
o sya!

The one with surfing
Did some bloghopping and a little surfing...
www.ciaracreates.com - i get inspiration from this site. she's so good kasi with beads and crafts. galing talaga! i hope one day, id be at least a tenth of her talent...and i think i can live with that na. hehe.
cynthia's blog - cynthia bauzon-arre, the WE layout artist. just thanked her again for a wonderful layout of Beautiful weddings 2006 and of course for including our wedding there. which reminds me, i still have to upload our pages here.
mimi and karl's blog - though they're not my photographers, i love visiting their blog kasi masipag sila magbigay ng personal experiences nila on weddings they attend to. galing!
www.weddingsatwork.com - of course, had to see the Sagada boys video. kakatawa! tumaba ata si john. pero galing talaga ni jason magbanua. if only i could afford him (hmm, parang it did'nt sound nice ha...bwahaha. video-wise po and not something else, kayo talaga oh!)
http://crazylovers.blogspot.com - mare, congrats on your new car! and hayaan mo na ang mga neighbors nyo, baka insecure lang sa kotse nyo. hehe. muah!
there, some of the sites that i was able to surf thru. kakatuwa talaga mag-surf. im learning a lot of things from other people even if i have'nt met them in person yet (for some) thru ciara, na-inspire ako to create some artpieces later and try to revive my craftsmanship in beadwork and crystal pieces. and with cynthia's blog, na-remind ako to upload our pages on Beautiful Weddings and to contact my photographer and ayusin na ang super long overdue naming album. hahaha.
come to think of it, if i'd really like to pursue business, i think it would really be wedding-related. parang dun lang kasi talaga ako really interested kahit na kasal nako. parang talking about it always excites me. yun lang. gusto ko lang i-share. kaya lang, kung ano exactly is the big question. hehe. must be the preggy mood swings going on here. nyahaha.
have a nice weekend everyone!(actually, nag-iintay lang me makauwi kasi tamad na me mag work....for the nth time, BAKIT BA KASI PUMAPASOK NG SABADO HA?!

The one with the new babies
Now we have two new babies...and they're both 3-month old! katuwa. well, technically our unborn child is 3months pa lang sa womb ko...pero nicount ko na rin! hehehe.
Ross is such a darling. i think now is a good time to have a dog kasi parang training ground na rin for simon on becoming a dad. he loves dogs pero not to the point na naglilinis lagi ng poop and yung kelangan lagi bantayan si ross. ako naman, have always been a dog lover. yung tipong kahit di pa ligo, pwede ko yakapin ng yakapin! hahaha. With Ross, we're learning to be like parents. well, he's low-maintenance compared to a baby pero the fact that we take care of him, give him shots, food, water and make sure that he's clean and his cage is clean...i think that's a good start for us. kasi we also want to maintain the cleanliness of the house kahit may dog so masipag ang asawa ko mag scrub ng floor kapag nakawala si Ross. kaya hindi amoy aso sa bahay.
OH and he's poopy-trained mind you! we put a newspaper on the first spot where he pooped and dun na sya lagi nag-poop! syempre minsan nga lang dun sya sa cage nya poop pag andun sya sa cage nya...hehehe. kaya kelangan linisin agad para hindi dumikit and amoy. gross ba?!
about our real baby naman tayo...our baby T! mejo malaki na tyan ko. i had a check-up last saturday for a routine check-up. all my tests are normal naman except that they found minimal RBC in my urine. it's not UTI so my OB suspected that it's potential spotting. told her im feeling cramps sometimes. asked nya kung sakit balakang ko, sabi ko hindi naman. monday ng madaling araw came, i really had a terrible as in terrible sakit sa balakang. napa-iyak nga ako kasi masakit talaga. so i did'nt report for work and went to my OB na. kasama ko si simon. she checked up on me and it's threatened abortion nga daw. kahit wala me spotting, the fact that there's blood in urine, dapat daw iprevent ko muna ang stress and pressure. so, i was advised to fully rest for three whole days! yikes! takot nga kme eh. pero she said naman na basta mag-rest lang daw ako. para kasi feeling ko hindi ako maselan magbuntis. hindi nga, pero napagod kasi ako when i went to cavite the week before that kaya ayun, natagtag daw ata ako. she checked the heartbeat, and dahil luma ang gamit nya na doppler, she requested na isingit ako for ultrasound just to check if the baby is ok. na-ultrasound me and we're so surprised to see the baby na malaki na agad! as in, may arms, feet and head na sya! ang cute, cute! tapos nag-bounce pa sya and sipa ng sipa inside. i cant feel it pa daw kasi malaki pa yung sac. once numipis yun, dun ko lang mafi-feel yung sipa nya! cool noh?! will upload the pic promise! happy lang kme and everything's ok with the baby. parang nawala nga bigla sakit ng katawan ko nun eh. dami ko nga lang meds, 6 all in all including vitamins. ok lang, basta for the baby.

The one with a belated greeting
It's no blogging at all for me...at lumipas na lahat ang birthday ko and di pa rin me nakapag-blog. so many things have hapenned, i dont know where to start.
anyway, days before my birthday...di talga ako masyado excited. must be the feeling na nagsasawa nako mag-birthday. hahaha. i turned 27 na last aug. 20 and i still had a blast! as in super saya birthday ko. ganun ata talaga pag wala masyado expectations. we did'nt prepare for it kasi ni simon coz we're running on a tight budget right now and with the baby coming, we are saving for it. so, i told him not to make any special chu-chu for my birthday. just a little salo-salo with families and friends is ok na. eh ganun talaga ang asawa ko, he always wants to make me happy kaya he still surprised me with a little something!!!
the morning of my birthday, he gave me a cute, as in very cute puppy!!! He's a dachsund, reddish brown in color. sorry and will just follow the pics coz they're all in the digicam and i forgot to bring it with me. super cute...he's 3 months na. same with our baby. kambal sila! hahaha. as in nauna magising si simon and my kuya brought the puppy na iniwan ni simon sa house ng mga parents ko the day before my bday. kakatuwa. as in 6am, my brother went to our house...super mahal tlga ako nun. tapos, simon wrapped my baby in a white table cloth (which reminds me, bakit yun ang ginamit nya?! eh pangwipe ng table yun eh?!) and woke me up while he was carrying the puppy! naalimpungatan nga me eh and by the time na na-realize ko na real dog sya, kitang-kita daw sa eyes ko na happy na happy me. hahaha. super miss na miss ko na kasi ng may dog. as in! ever since childhood, lagi may dog sa bahay and dog lover tlga ako all my life. so living in an apartment without a dog is a big adjustment. and i know simon loves dog also, pero not as much as i love dogs. yung tipong nasa loob ng house, tapos lilinisin ang cage, ang poop, at wiwi. hahaha. now, he has to do all those things and surprisingly, our house does'nt smell bad despite of having the dog inside the house. (not yet) so we were thinking of how to name him...syempre, being the Friends addict that i'am, i started calling him Chandler. he did'nt respond. tinawag ko na Joey, ayaw pa rin. when i called him ROSS, tumalon at nag-bark. hahaha. ang cute talaga! so our baby's name is Ross!
so how did he plan the whole thing? days before my birthday, naghahanap na pala sya sa buy n sell. tapos, the day before, may appointment sya with a client. yun lang ang paalam nya sa ken. little did i know na he met the seller sa megamall muna and got the pup. after that, derecho na sya sa client nya. he called my brother and they met somewhere so my brother can pick up the pup and dun muna stay sa house nila. ang cool kasi out of the way yun for my brother pero bait talaga nun at love ako nun eh. :) tapos, binilhan nila mommy ng dog food and nice cage para pag nibigay sa ken, ganda na sya. tapos yun na! dala-dala na nung bday ko! neighbors came over nung morning pala to greet me and we had breakfast. touched nga ako coz they prepared breakfast pa talaga. thanks karla, alex, abi and romy! kahit alam kong bangag pa si alex and abi sa sobrang antok, punta pa rin sila. muah! muah! abi and romy game me kettle korn popcorn! nanglaki nga mata ko eh kasi favorite ko tlga popcorn! hehe. karlalex game me CDs na classical, for me and the baby. :)
after that, we attended sunday service na. mejo na-late kme. after that, we went home agad coz i want to get some sleep muna coz visitors will be arriving at 4pm. by batch kasi ang visitors namin. friends muna at 4pm, then families at 630pm. dahil yun sa maliit lang ang house. hehehe. pero syempre, late dumating ang friends, buti na lang late din dumating ang families coz it rained.
grabe ang dami food bigla!!! ang handa lang kasi namin was pansit and ice cream dahil tight budget nga and we also knew that mommies would bring food. and they did! The Tans brought pasta and the Fermins brought menudo and salad and cake. yummy lahat! my friends brought cake, and some pica-pica. so all in all, i had two cakes! yahoo! dami food kaya ilang days na after my bday, yun pa rin ang kinakain namin. plus, lahat nakapag-uwi ng baon! hehehe.
we had videoke na super fun. friends naman were playing video games sa taas, na super na-addict sila at galit na galit na ang mga barkada ko eh hindi pa rin nakikinig ang mga boys. hahaha. mejo nasanay nako kasi kay simon kaya all i did was laughed about the whole thing.
my mom kept on requesting sharon cuneta songs and my MIL naman, karen carpenters songs. ironically, pag sila ang kumanta, ang tataas ng mga scores...promise! pag sila achie na and skokie (who btw are pro's), average lang. madaya ang magic sing! nyahaha. and of course, andun pa rin ang ever pagkanta ni jane...trademark tlga! hahaha.
it ended around 10pm coz nag-brown out twice. hahaha. lakas kasi ng hangin. sayang, kakanta pa naman na ang mga daddies. ayaw ata sila pakantahin. sooo much fun! my parents stayed muna to help us clean out and so with naan and jason. :)
thank you Lord for all the blessings and for another year that you've added in my life.

The one with Kapag tumibok ang puso
We heard baby T's heartbeat already!!! sooo precious!!! and super fast...kakatuwa. last thursday yun when i had to have my check-up already with my OB kasi two days na delayed ang aking schedule for check-up. sooo bad i know pero kasi i was on a seminar nung scheduled check-up and i cant get out agad, tapos wednesday naman wala OB ko nun. they got blood sample for a series of tests na nakalimutan ko na. hehe. katawa nga dun sa kumuha ng blood. she remembered me coz i had like two preg tests in the clinic and sya yung gumagawa nung test. (first time when i had an x-ray and second time when i needed to drink antibiotics for my UTI) parehas negative nung time na yun and nung nalaman nya na preggy na me, natuwa rin sya. but you know, she posed a super weird question na ngayon ko lang narinig talaga...sabi nya, "wow, so preggy kana...natatakot ka?" nyah! hallleeerr!!! eh bakit naman ako matatakot?! i mean, i know i'll be scared when i give birth pero right now, masaya ako at preggy ako noh?! diba weird?! and I know naman that God is protecting my baby.
so when i went back to my OB, q&a portion na kme. i asked about everything that im feeling...yung sakit ng ulo ko and sobrang takaw ko! hahaha. yung sakit ng ulo normal lang pala daw kasi for some women, hindi daw hilo ang na-experience kundi sakit ng ulo...(ahhh...) and i also mentioned na mejo sakit me wiwi pero seldom nangyayari yun. pero nonetheless, i still had to undergo the urinalysis test dahil prone nga daw ang preggo sa UTI. wag naman sana. tapos after that, sabi ni doc, "tara, let's hear the heartbeat na." wow, ang saya! higa ako tapos lagay sya petroluem and after two or three locations, pinarinig nya muna sa ken heartbeat ko thru the vessel connected to the heart, thus i can hear my heartbeat sa puson ko. mabagal lang. tapos she moved the doppler again and said, "now..yan yung sa baby.." and she smiled. ako naman si... "ahhhh...." katuwa naman. ang bilis-bilis! parang train! it's just too sad that simon missed it kasi i went to the clinic ng maaga dahil matagal yung check-up and di sya nakahabol coz he has work pa. doctora said naman that we can do it again next week para kasama na si simon and pag sa susunod very audible na, simon can record it. cool!
now...let's do some back-tracking of what happened over the last ten days of no blogging.
August 5 - Congratulations to Isis and Ian for a great wedding! it did rain but luckily, covered naman venue nila. pero promise super hirap yung papunta namin kasi zero visibility sa mall of asia. scarrry!! and wala pa kme car nung time na yun kaya naka-cab lang kme. i saw arian, anna, and lolo. kme lang ang present out of 10 barkadas! we were with out hubbies and rasta (anna's son). buti na lang nung wedding ko kumpleto kme! as in, tatampo ako sa kanila kung wala isa sa kanila. they had to file their leaves before the wedding talaga dahil natakot ata sa mga threats ko. hahaha. but na-appreciate ko presence nila nun. nway, back to isis' wedding. madge was there also kasi sya MUA ni isis. hihi. galing! they had tamayo's for the caterer. yun lang alam kong supplier pa nila. pero the wedding was super fun kasi kwela tong si Ian. feel na feel ang pagiging center of attraction! hahaha. congrats again mare! will post pics soon.
yun nga lang, on our way home...we got some really bad news. anna's dad who's in UAE passed away na. i was beside her and i dont know what to do. i just let her cry. her dad had cancer and been fighting for it for years na so okay na rin daw na tapos na suffering nya. but then again, they're miles away from each other. anna is here, parents are in UAE, sister is in europe. kaya haaayyy... anna, will pray for you and your family. love you mare.
August 7 ata or 8 - evening yun when simon asked me out of the blue kung alam ko daw sakit ni daddy (nya). sabi ko, "no." kasi daw lan-lan texted him and told him na bat di daw sinasabi kay lan-lan that daddy tony has prostate cancer. we were like, "ano daw?!" syempre initial reaction ko galit ako kay lan-lan kasi di naman ata sya sigurado sa sakit na sinasabi nya. i asked achie then thru text if it's true. ang sagot, "C ata sabi ni doc..." so ako si "ah, totoo nga." pero confused pa rin ako dahil they did'nt tell us. all along kala namin ok lang tapos C pala. so galit ako kay achie. nag-sorry naman sya. iyak-iyak kme ni simon...hirap kaya nun. pinatahan na lang ako ni simon coz bawal sa baby. so anong nangyari??? turns out the following day, achie texted me and told me na hindi naman pala C ang sakit...juice! the emotional shock we had to go through tapos di naman pala totoo!!! parang mga syongak! i told her to please pagsabihan sila lan-lan, rey and chris to stop telling stories na hindi totoo. dahil C is not a simple sicknes katulad ng lagnat or ubo. so ok na kme ulit. apparently, something to do with prostate and needs operation daw. so please pray for daddy tony also.
my dad naman nagpa-check up din dahil mom had to bring him to hospital ng 530am dahil sakit ang tyan. he had some tests and ultrasound. and this week nya malalaman ang results. suspected kidney stones na dati pa nya sakit. some of their friends in church advised them to take sambong tea nga (herbal) na super kkatanggal daw ng stones agad. pray for daddy also. yun lang. the thing lang about being preggy is that people try to filter details when they talk to you kasi iisip nila ang condition mo. eh parang mas gusto ko naman na sabihin sa ken ang totoo diba than not telling anything. oh well...concerned rin lang siguro sila.
ay yun lang pala ang major na nangyari last week. hihi. puro work na kasi yung iba na ayoko naman i-blog dahil everyday ko na ginagawa. hahaha. well, nung sunday pala tinamaan ako ng sakit...Katamaran! grabe, after church talaga and cooking sopas (dahil nag-crave ako), wala nang tayuan sa higa...ang sarap humilata! at ang sarap ng sopas ko! yahoo! success nga eh. pansin ko lang ang mga cravings ko involve sabaw lagi...ano kaya magiging itsura ng anak ko nyan. haha.
kainis...nasa internet cafe me now sa shang...and i swear, may naamoy ako na mabahong paa...di ko alam kung san galing??!?! baka etong katabi ko! hahaha. o sya!
ay last na, 6 days na lang birthday ko na! ano kaya gagawin namin??? sabi ko kay simon, tipid muna kme ngayon kasi mejo magastos kami because lahat ng transpo namin are all taxi cabs and Basic pa na may additional fare kaya mejo tipid on other things. di pa kme makabili ng kapalit ni bhabes eh. chaka na yung diamond earrings na hinihingi ko sa kanya! hahaha. pero kahit ano gawin sa birthday ko...happy pa rin!!! 27 nako!!!

The one with sinigang
Our baby T is 2 months na in my womb! hehe. (why baby T? pwedeng baby Tan, o kaya baby Tuta! nyahaha) sabi ko nga sa iba kong friends who know me as a dog lover...may tuta na kme! hahaha. joke lang at baka maging batik-batik nga ang anak ko.
anyway, we spent our weekend with a simple monthsary celebration and lunch with my bestest friends. saturday, july 22 was our monthsary (wedding and bf-gf, same lang) so we went to the mall. Sta. Lucia lang since di ako pwede lumayo. ate delia stayed at home while we were out. grabe, did i mention na hulog ng langit yang si ate delia?! she's our housekeeper. actually, sa house talaga ni simon sya madalas, ni-refer lang ni mommy alma sa amin. parang tulong na rin namin sa kanya, pero mas tulong sa amin yung ginagawa nya. imagine, sa isang buong araw...makakapaglaba sya ng tambak namin na labahin, clean our house, (as in lahat sa house ha), at kung ano-ano pa. basta, wala na kme kelangan gawin. whole day yun and she charges 250 pesos lang! sinosobrahan na lang namin to P300 and we give them food or whatever na meron sa house para thank you na rin. hehe, galing!
so back to kwento, we went shopping! my behbeh bought two polo shirts sa F&H, a pair of jeans sa Lee and a pair of shades sa F&H. ang saya nya ha! yung polo nga first time nya daw bumili ng shirt na 600 ang isa. haha, kurips talaga kme. kasi usually pang-polo na daw yun. eh sabi ko naman, treat nya sa sarili yun for having been promoted at work and monthsary naman diba?! nag-reason out pa eh. ako naman, i bought lang 2 blouses and some undies. mejo luluma na kasi ng undies ko and mejo masikip na. hihihi. so, we also tried on some pants na pang-preggo...pero for goodness sake, hindi magaganda! bat ganun?! laging may excess na tela sa likod. hahaha. eh kasi naman pinipilit ko na agad mag-ganun eh di pa naman dapat. i should just buy pants a little larger than my usual size diba? :)
tapos we ate at Max's kasi nag-crave kme sa sinigang! grabe, na-empacho ata ako! as in hindi ako makalakad sa busog at sumasakit na tyan ko...ang takaw ko! aside from sinigang na pork, we ordered chicken and chopseuy(ewan ko ba ke simon, di tlga bagay yung chopseuy sa order namin eh) hehe. tapos may dessert pa na leche flan and may mga fruit shakes pa kme. hinayang kme sa fruit shake ko and sa chopseuy kasi di namin nagalaw halos. tatakaw!!! pero i promise to lessen na my eating kasi ayoko rin masyado tumaba...not pala lessen my eating, yung tamang eat lang. :)
pag uwi, simon went to church na. di nya nako pinasama kasi wala kme car ngayon e :( eh naulan pa so mahirap mag-commute. i stayed at home lang and watched 24, at chaka read my fave book ngayon, "What to expect when you're expecting" hihihi.
sunday...we went to church...at dahil alam na ng mga ninong at ninang namin, including dun sa mga ka-member namin sa ministry, tuwang tuwa silang lahat. at ang dami advices na hindi ko na ma-grasp lahat. hehe. pero happy me that they're happy for us. i know a lot of people are praying for my baby.
tapos, i had lunch with the greenpark girls, my best friends. hinatid ako ng mga SIL ko kala naan and sumabay nako kay naan. we ate at somethin' fishy and guess what i ordered??? sinigang pa rin!!! ano ba yun?! love the labanos sa sinigang and the pork of course! chaka yung sabaw! sabi nga nila baka dun ako naglilihi...sa sabaw! nyah!
ang ganda ng mga topics namin...well, jannet has a problem at work but i know she'll get through it. she just has to be firm and stand for what is right. we prayed for her before we ate and napa-iyak sya sa prayer ko. i know God is doing something great in her life, she just has to wait for it. also, we are planning to buy Cash Flow 101 na boardgame, to purchase it from the States and plan to sponsor games here. mukang okay naman sya.
we also plan to pursue the franchise business na napag-usapan before. well, we'll meet some other time on that para mas mabigyan ng pansin at madesisyunan. naisip ko nga eh, i think i should do again the 5-year timetable of my life. dati ginawa ko na yun and prayed for it and in God's grace, lahat yun natupad naman. promise! kaya nga i think it's also best that Simon and I do it again para ma-plan din namin at mapag-pray ang future years namin.
park muna ako...work na ulit...have a nice rainy day everyone!

The one with surprised parents
Hahaha...kakatawa mga parents ni simon. when we went there the other night to break the news, akala ni mommy alma gift lang namin sa kanya yun. sabi nya, "eh kakabigay mo lang sa ken ng bag ha..." sabi ko, "open nyo lang po." eh di si daddy, nakiki-usyoso kasi bakit wala daw sya gift. hahaha. when they saw the infant clothes, tawa ng tawa...maya-maya nag sink in na may baby na nga when they saw the ultrasound pic. nyahaha. pero bakit ganun, lagi sila tatanong muna kung ano yung ultrasound pic? di ba sila nag-ganun dati? hihihi.
the sisters are so happy also! aba, excited na mamili ng mga gamit for the baby at mag-shop din daw ako sa gingersnaps and orange juice! juice! ang mahal naman! hehe. kurips pa rin! so there, it was one happy evening...we had dinner pa and nagkwentuhan pa kung ano pa nararamdaman ko.
the thing is...wala ako nung mga morning sickness na yan...promise! except that mabilis ako makatulog sa gabi (kasi ayoko na mapuyat), matakaw ako (pero dati na naman ako matakaw) hehe. and my sense of smell eh mejo heightened na. ewan ko, madali ako mabahuan kahit wala naman naaamoy ang iba. hahaha. weird! ano pa ba??? oh and mejo lumalaki na puson ko!!! have to buy new panties, bras, and pants pa.
tomorrow monthsary na namin!!! yipee!!! san kaya gimmick namin ni beh??? hmmm...kwento ko na lang ulit. have a happy weekend everyone! :D happy birthday too jannet!
Part 2:
lunch time - i ate tilapia and veggies sa canteen. tapos, nag-crave ako for yogurt and peanuts. eh super init sa labas...guess what i did??? lumabas pa rin at bumili! nyahaha. lagot ako kay behbeh ko! shhh...quiet lang, walang magsusumbong. sarap nung yogurt! berry mix, super fave ko tlga yun. pero yung peanuts...yuck! ang alat. isa pa lang nakain ko, nisara ko na yung bag. eeewww...pakain ko na lang kay simon. hehe..
nag-request ako kay simon that we cook (he lang pala) sinigang later...at maraming labanos!!! nyahaha...para maputi ang baby! nde, joke lang!!! (half-meant)

The one with the first visit to OB
We were supposed to meet Dr. Sharon Cruz as recommended by a lot of my officemates, kaya lang 2nd day na sya hindi pumapasok because she had to attend to her husband, so i went to Dr. Carmela Madrigal-Dy who's also good and magaling daw...maganda pa! hehehe.
i went to Health First at 430pm na. then she attended to me at past 5pm na (dami patients eh) she asked me kung when ang first day ng last mens ko. i guessed lang, sabi ko may 29. based on her computation, dapat mga 7 weeks and 4 days na daw si baby. i doubted kasi baka na-delayed lang ako ng june kaya mga july lang sya na-conceive. so she suggested that we have a trans-V ultrasound to know the gestation period of the baby...yikes! baka masakit ha...
so i paid the bill and went straight to the ultrasound room. when i lied down na, may nakikita nako na some device na nilagyan nya ng petroleum jelly. sabi nya, "this might be a little uncomfortable ha..." sabay dahan-dahan nipasok ang device. yikes! uncomfortable nga! pero when i saw the sac of our baby and how little he/she is...di ko na naisip na may device sa loob ko. hehehe.
this is how our baby looks like at 7 weeks...

if you see the tiny white spot inside the black thing...that's our baby! hehe. the black is the sac and the super liit spot is ours. (sorry for resolution at phone image lang yan)

we bought frames for parents and for us ni simon...nasa office desks na namin now.
sabi ni doc, based on the measurements of the sac, the baby is 7 weeks and 1 day! yahoo! and may heartbeat na sya!!! medyo irregular pa nga lang daw kasi nasa developmental stage pa lang sya. they'll do doppler on me at 10 weeks ata. pero we saw the baby moving, yung prang nag-biblink sya kasi gumagalaw. basta, di ko ma-explain! hahaha. super happy kme! doc asked simon to come inside and see the ultrasound. he documented it and videotaped it. yey! saya! confirmed na may baby nga!!! she also checked my ovaries and in place naman daw lahat. i was asked to come back some time in august and have a number of tests and check up ulit. was also given medicines for the baby's development.
after that, we went straight to Sta. Lucia and did some shopping...kung pano namin sasabihin sa mga parents namin. hehehe. we bought small picture frames, infant clothes, and mittens. the mittens are for my bestest friends (mahal na masyado kung lahat may infant clothes eh...haha) the clothes pa pala are 25% off! haha. galing! we also bought shoes for me na walang heels. eh gusto ko pa sana libutin kaya lang ayaw na ni simon at baka mapagod daw ako.

laki ng paa ko!
so we bought a paper bag, photocopied the ultrasound of the baby and framed it, tucked it inside with the clothes and a little note for the grandparents...kunwari galing kay baby! nyahaha. (eh naka-computer pa...wow, marunong na mag-computer ang baby!)
we went first to my parents. ate muna dinner (favorite sopas and fried galunggong...the best!) after the yummy dinner, we gave the gift na. akala pa ng mommy ko may binyag kme na pupuntahan. hihihi. tapos, she read the note muna. when she read "baby tan" tuwang-tuwa na. then they opened the little clothes and they saw the frame. hahaha. tawa ng tawa at napatili si mama. my dad was happy and immediately embraced simon and me. we exchanged hugs and kissed tapos kwentuhan na of how the check-up went and ano pa mga symptoms ko. sabi ko, wala naman masyado, except that i love to eat. yikes! after the tawanan and hulaan what gender the baby will be...we went home na. ang plan talaga is to go home saglit and go straight to simon's parents. kaya lang nagloko na naman si babes and it wont start. kainis! so di namin nasabi pa sa parents ni simon. mamaya na lang ang gimik...pagkagaling office, derecho na kme dun.
in fairness, makapit ang baby Tan ha...kasi for the past month, iam so sure i was so stressed and very malikot kasi dami nirurush pero talagang our baby is holding on to me. haayy! saya! sana tuloy-tuloy na talaga.
oh and another good news! simon has been a talent artist for GMA for almost a year na...not that nagrereklamo kme coz before feeling namin ok kung talent lang sya than regular para he'll have other time for other projects...pero mas ok pa rin ang regular para sa benefits diba? so...magiging regular na sya!!! she talked to the big boss and she immediately agreed naman. today, july 19 ang orientation nya. ang bilis noh?! hehehe. praise God! when it rains, it pours!!!

The one with a BIG surprise!!!
it's a beautiful day!!! i woke up feeling dizzy, nauseated and parang laging gutom. i asked jenny to buy me a preg kit...and while nagjajabebs ako, nagtest nako. pangalawa attempt ko na to, kasi nung first, wala lumalabas na urine. hehe, pa-suspense. so syempre, pagkadrop nung urine, nilagay ko muna sa likod ko at nagjabebs ako plus nag text ng konti. dahil pang-limang test ko na yan since december, parang ayoko rin masyado mag-hope dahil nakakalungkot at sayang ang money pag negative. hihihi.
so syempre, eto na...after a few minutes...daran!!!!

OH YES!!! TWO PINK LINES!!! ETO PA ISA...

PRAISE GOD!!! ANG SAYA-SAYA! when i saw it, napaluha lang ako sa tuwa. speechless and i prayed and thanked God for everything. ibang klase talaga ang timing ni Lord, perfect!!!
tapos, naghugas nako...hihihi...di pa pala ako tapos mag jebs nun. nyahaha.
so after that, na-announce ko na sa office. i also emailed my friends na and happy rin sila. ang hindi ko pa nasasabihan are our families, simon and our close friends. gusto kasi namin personal eh. so there...magiging mommy nako!!! yahoo!!! it's an answered prayer. talagang totoo na when it rains, it pours....
so pano ko sinabi kay simon...ganito yun...
we've been having suspicions already if im pregnant kasi nga maraming physical developments na super obvious, kahit sya nagugulat. (oo na, lumaki daw boobsies ko!) nyahaha. di ko na detalye at baka marami makabasa nito., so anyway, i asked him to meet me sa clinic namin early para makapagpa-check up kme agad. before ko sya i-meet, i bought a crystal glass pacifier, wrote a note na kunwari sa baby namin galing, and in the gift is my pregnancy kit...the only evidence that yes, im pregnant.
so pagdating ko ng clinic, wala pala ang OB ko at may emergency daw. nyeh! suspense pa ha. so tawag ako sa kanya. eh since nakaalis na rin sya office, nag-meet na rin kme sa shang. i went to starbucks 6th level and prepared my gift. :D simple lang ang gimik ko kasi gusto ko na talaga sabihin sa kanya dahil morning pa lang tinatanong nya nako if bumili nako ng test. eh ayoko naman sabihin na positive dahil gusto ko nga makita ang reaction nya diba??? so when i gave the gift, nag thank you pa sya. sabi nya, "ano to?" sabi ko, "basta..."
pag open nya ng gift, he first read the note. sabi nya, "hehe...ang cute, daddy...kunwari baby ko nagsulat..." the last line said, "i can't wait for you to teach me music daddy, baby tan" cute noh?! tapos, nakita nya yung pacifier. sabi nya, "wow, ang cute naman nito!" (di pa rin nakakaramdam ang mokong!) tapos when he saw the test, ganito kme...
"eh, eto ano to?!"
"eh di preg kit."
"ano ibig sabihin?"
"pag one line...negative, pag two lines..."
"ha?!?!?! wiheeeheehee!!!" (tapos napatahimik na sya at ngiti lang ng ngiti)
(hanggang sa may mga luha na sa mga gilid ng kanyang mata at pinunasan nya ito)
these are the only pictures i was able to take kasi naiyak din ako eh kaya di ko sya nakuhaan agad.

ayan...puro gilagid...hihihi...at mejo tumubo na rin ang buhok nya...di nya sya kalbo
eto pa isa...

he's holding the note and the pacifier dyan. di nya na hinawakan yung kit...hihi, baka amoy wiwi eh. nyahaha.
after that, tatayo na kme, naka-alalay agad ang asawa ko. wahaha. sabi ko, "beh, di naman ako matanda..buntis lang." ang bagal namin maglakad...we decided to go home agad kasi gusto nga namin dumaan sa mga parents namin to break the news.
eh pag uwi namin, tinamad na ang lola nyo dahil nakita ko na ang kama namin. eh sarap pa naman ng weather kahapon...hihihi. tamad ang anak namin! tapos, he went out to buy food, and prepared it for us. bukas na lang kme gigimik sa mga parents namin.
when we were on the bed na, himas ng himas si simon kay baby. kiss pa ng kiss. tapos nagising ako ng 3am...i saw him awake pa. sabi ko, baket gising ka pa? di daw sya makatulog dahil iniisip nya baby namin. i know he'll be a good and wonderful father. we ended our day with a prayer to thank God for everything and prayed that everything will be fine with me and the baby. :D
tomorrow na kme mamimili ng shoes ko and pants (yes, bawal nako mag-heels and wala nang kasya sa ken na pants...nyahaha) and we'll also buy baby clothes pang surprise sa mga families namin. yun ang gimmick namin. hehehe. :D
thank you Lord!
so syempre, eto na...after a few minutes...daran!!!!

The one with letting go
This is a topic i never wanted to hear...death.
It's just so sad eh...when i read con's post about her aunt, saw glo's last post on her blog (her mom passed away). basta, ayoko ng ganung topic. alam ko, we all had to go through it pero di ko ata kaya. just the thought of it makes me cry.
everytime i'd think about losing my mom, or my dad, or Simon...napapaiyak talaga ako. kahit saan man me, naluluha ako. kasi parang di ko talaga kakayanin. yun lang. I know God controls our lives and alam ko naman that His plans are for the best lagi, pero syempre tao lang ako...as much as possible, the ones we love most...gusto natin kasama natin sila hangga't pagtanda.
na-sad lang talaga me. so gloomy day...
5 freaking days til the Conference!

so anyway, nagmamake-up ako kanina...tapos, nung binalik ko sa drawer yung things ko, tumama yung bukol ko sa drawer. sabi ko pa, "aray! sa lahat naman ng tatamaan oh?" tapos pag tingin ko, flat na yung wrist ko!!! napasok na ulit sa loob yung bukol! nyahaha!!! yuck ano?! pero nakakatawa talaga! ayos! instant surgery!

July 2, 2006 - The longest sunday ever!

Pastor Babes Paulate gave the preaching and ang ganda ng preaching nya.
The one with simon's first facial
~ after church, di pa kme nakuntento. we went to rob. metro east to get some facials and massages. we were with simon's sisters kaya ang saya namin! silang lahat nagpamasahe...ako lang hindi kasi baka preggy eh...sayang! hehe. tapos nagpa-facial rin kme ni simon! first time nya!!! i would have taken a pic of him kaya lang fina-facial na rin ako...di ko na nagawa, sayang. but it's not a good sight rin naman seeing all the blackheads and white heads. hahaha.
~ after that, we went to Body shop, eh sale so napabili ako. kaya lang lip gloss lang nibili ko kasi yun lang kelangan ko (kakabili ko lang ng clinique set e). as we were strolling, pasok kme sa girbaud. sale din kasi. i saw this really cute sneakers for simon...red! danda! binili namin. i saw this cute red bag also...super akong-ako...kaya lang di namin binili. :( ang dami ko na daw bags! wala nga eh!!! ok lang, di rin naman sya kelangan na kelangan.
~ after our malling and spa, we dropped off muna simon sa apartment and i joined the sisters for a grocery at robinson's junction. di na namin sinama si simon kasi gusto nya na matulog, sayang daw ang masahe. hehehe. bought some items lang for dinner later with our bestest friends! grabe, sa init! kumikintab ang mukha ko! yaaakkk!!!
~ after grocery, hinatid ko muna sila sa village nila then i went home na. ang behbeh ko hindi naman natutulog...he was enjoying his pacquiao moment! so proud to be pinoy! mabuhay ka pacquiao and to all other boxers who won!!!
~ after the game, di nako makatulog so naglinis na lang me and then nagluto na ng chopseuy to partner the liempo that naan and jason will bring and jill's soup.
The one with the dinner

~ so syempre, when i say they go to our house ng dinner time...it pwedeng 8pm yun, or 9pm to that matter. hehe, sanay na sanay nako sa amin. they started arriving at 830pm, syempre una sila naan and jason (as always), sunod na si jannet, then jill and jhon! tapos di na kme kasya sa house! hahaha. so we headed to the roofdeck agad. buti na lang di umulan. katuwa, enjoy kme sa taas. sarap kumain! sarap mag-games, and picture-taking (sorry, no pic pa rin kasi nasa pc po ni simon lahat ng pics namin)
~ after that, we went back to the apartment na...and guess what?! naglaro kme ng Metal Slug!!! grabe, na-addict na rin sila. that PC game is one of our bonding moments and katuwa na na-enjoy nila yung game. graphics is really good and weapons. yun nga lang, ang downside...everytime we play that...napapasigaw tlga ako, "Sugod!!!Die!!!!Aaaaahhhhh!!!!" as in, warfreaks! hahaha. but enjoy kme everytime we play that kahit puyat-puyat na kme pareho kakalaro. si jill and naan, grabe tumili pag naglalaro! si jannet naman, kunwari daw pagod na at maaga uuwi...eh sya nga yung pinakamatagal naglaro eh! hahaha.
~ i love you our bestest friends! magkakasama na tayo since we were kids and i hope to look forward to the time that our kids have kids already and we're still together! muah!

The one with twenty-something
Ive read somewhere that in one's life, we all undergo the what they call "the twenty-something" crisis. shucks! i really have to find that email. it's so nice and i think i can totally relate to it right now.
sabi dun, this is the time when we think if the work that we have right now is the right job for us...
we adjust to the family life that we get into once we get married and have kids...we feel responsible for whoever they will become and what they will accomplish in life.
we think and rethink of the life we want...eto na ba yun??? tama ba ang tinatahak ko na career?
we value our families and friends and realize that they are the only people who listen to us and help us in times of troubles.
super nice yung email na yun that i got from naan. i really need to read that again! i'am at a point in my life where i'am searching for God's purpose for my career life.
~ as i've said, ive always wanted brand management. kaya lang, baka i may be wanting it for the wrong reasons. baka hindi talaga yun ang gusto ko gawin. ewan ko, sabi ko nga lagi, work should not be a burden. yes, it's hard but it should not control my life.
~ feeling ko talaga, one move ko lang na mali, mapapa-resign talaga me ng di-oras. that's why i really need God's guidance right now. ayoko na maiba yung decisions ko dahil i did'nt pray for it. i always seek His will in my life. mahirap kasi kung basta-basta lang. and nafe-feel ko that He is doing something...His works are just unexplainable and mysterious pero perfect sa timing. kaya i'd always want to make sure that I depend on Him.
~ pero syempre, being human as i'am, nahihirapan talaga ako. naiinggit ako sa asawa ko who works at what he loves best...music. yung parang kahit marami sya work at tambak din tulad ko, nakikita ko that he's happy and that he feels like he's not working kasi music ang ginagawa nya. haaayyy!!!
~ so, what's that one thing that i love to do??? should i look for other opportunities???
~ parang naisip ko na mas ok pa yung employed pero tama lang ang pressure para i can have time for my small business. settled nako dun eh. wala nga lang career growth.
~ that's just it! wala rin naman ako career growth pa dito...kaya rin siguro hirap ako to do anything. may kulang.
~ pero...sabi ko nga, everything happens for a purpose! God designed everything with a master plan and He holds the blueprint of my life.
~ i learn to take life one step at a time...learn to breathe and relax...learn to say that "it's just work...it should'nt control my life"
bow!

The one with halfway there...again
The first time i wrote the same title was last year when we were halfway to our wedding. Now, we're halfway to our 1st year anniversary! yahoo! saya! time really flies so fast grabe! it was a thursday. simon took me out for a dinner at brickroad. syempre, pag uwi ko...wala sya. duda nako that he bought flowers..hihi. pag dating nya, sabi nya nagpa-carwash lang daw sya...and may flowers nga! hihii. we went to brickroad without knowing where to eat. nakita namin eat all you can ang Don Hen! yahoo! i missed eating there! and so we did...things to remember when eating in an "eat all you can"
1. dont order bottomless iced tea! my goodness, when we ordered iced tea, we did'nt know kung san kme magsusulit...ang uminom ng maraming iced tea o kumain ng marami! haha, gluttony!
2. don't start with the salads...eh gutom nako nun e...i dont need an appetizer. si simon nag salad pa rin pero dami pa rin sya nakain!
3. eat a little of everything. dahil favorite ko ang buffalo wings, dami ako nakain nun that left me no space for other foods. nyahaha.
we had fun...we always do. thank you simon for being the best husband! can't ask for more. love you so much!

The one with the other day's wedding
haayyy... we are so happy for concon and nel...they are finally married! there was so much love in the air, it was full of emotions. i could'nt help but cry everytime she'd cry. hahaha. their wedding was so much a reflection of their personalities. and the best part was nag let go si concon. ni-enjoy nya talaga the most important day of her life! kaya super saya-saya!!!
we thought we would'nt see her walk down the aisle...but we did! i was literally running from the parking lot when i saw her sa labas with madge and veluz fixing her gown. she's so beautiful. feeling ko kapatid ako na nakikita ko yung sister kong maglalakad na sa aisle. i even felt nervous when i saw her. waahhh! first wedding kasi namin after ours kaya may hang over pa siguro ako. hahaha.
and there she cried...when she hugged her mother, they wont let go...kakaloka! wala pa naman ako tissue!! buti na lang shortly after it, dumaan si clarice at may dalang tissue. hahaha. even madge cried. kaloka talaga kmeng mga bakla!
the priest was hilarious! puro patawa and interview portion! :D
the recessional was so much fun! si karl (mimi and karl) dinapuan ng doves...hahaha! while all of us were staring at him and laughing at him, he was so helpless with the two doves clawing his head. nyahaha! good thing magka-chika pa kme ni madge, may picture pa kme ni simon with the couple taken by mimi and karl kasi nahuli kme to leave the church. hahaha.
sa reception, super fabulous set-up! as in, ganda ng gazebo nila with a very cozy ambiance because of the sofa and the votive candles...galing! the AVPs were so nice. galing ng 3logy! love the cake also.
pero the best thing i love about their wedding, love and God manifested all throughout the wedding. you can actually feel the love and joy they have for each other. siguro because I also knew what concon went through before the wedding so feel na feel ko rin ang wedding nila. we are so happy for them
love you con and nel! and buti na lang isa lang ang rice cooker na na-receive nyo! galing sa amin pa! muah! love you and tuloy natin ang once a month gimik natin ha.

The one with being back again!
grabe, it's been a whole month of no blogging at all! i did'nt even have the time to blog on my hubby's first birthday after our wedding! we had so much fun there! feeling ko nga spoiled yun eh kasi lagi ganda ng mga birthdays nya. hahaha. although, i also had my share of fun when he threw a party for me and in fairness, pag may celebration for him, automatic kasama ako run! hahaha.
anyway, we had a swimming party at club manila east! with our families lang naman and close friends! sarap mag swimming! may kayaking pa na super saya! nung una, kinakabahan ako kasi i can only swim up to a certain level, yung hangga't nato-touch ko ang floor, ok pako. weird noh?! kaya nga psychology course ko nung college eh, to identify what's really wrong with me! haha. so anyway, tinanong ko yung mama, sabi ko "kuya, gano po kalalim yan???" sabi nya "4.5 feet lang" ayos! go na go nako with kayaking! todo nato! :D sakit nga lang sa kamay and arms.
after that, we ordered food and nag-slide ulit. kakahiya, yung slide, ayaw ako umandar!!! parang vaseline commercial! bad trip talaga yun! sabi nung lifeguard, dahil daw sa fabric ng shorts ko! hmp! kainis! pero si simon, slide na slide! ang bilis! takot na takot tuloy sya! hahaha.
what else happened ba??? oh we're busy with work...lapit ko na i-launch ang vitamins ko! we had a brand planning in tagaytay. may kukwento ako sa inyo...ako si chona chikadora ngayon! we met some artistas on our stay at canyon woods. syempre, pa-picture kme. nagpunta si artista R sa function room namin coz kilala namin ang location manager ng teleserye na yun coz we had product intrusions there with our brands. so anyway, chika-chika. i asked her if what dogs does she have. she has two schnauzers, mag-daddy. tapos, picture2. after that, she asked, "so nag-'launch' na kayo?" i told her, "sa june pa..." then she went like, "no i mean, food..." then i went, "ahhhh...lunch...yeah, were done." pag labas nya, naloka tlga kme lahat. so bad, pero natawa talaga kme. kasi naman she's trying so hard to slang her words...nyeh! my bad...
happy monthsary behbi ko! san gimik natin??? we'll attend nga pala the seminar on "da vinci code, jesus and the bible" later. love you so much simon! muah!

The one with never complete
Yes...we will never be complete! we threw a bridal shower for our friend concon, the first we got to throw for the group. simon and i had to attend practice so we were'nt able to have lunch with the girls. we just met them at starbucks and had frap, and 2nd batch nung shower. karla and alex had to go naman agad to attend sa birthday party and house dedication of her bro. in law. it was fun having to see my w@wie friends again. i hope this friendship will be forever! yihee!
after the shower, we attended an art exhibit of our ninong Pastor Super. it was so nice. the concepts are unique. it's like color me mine plates and bowls, except that the themes are so personalized and biblical. very inspiring! we've wanted to support him so much by buying one but we can't afford to hang a 10k plate in our apartment...hehehe. i asked him na lang to make platitos for us...that i think we can afford! hahaha.
so there, that's how we celebrated our 4th monthsary! happy beh! love you! grabe, 4 months na tayo!!! and hindi pa rin natin nasusubmit songs natin for video! hahaha.

The one with In sickness and in health
It was our first time to be down with a bad sore throat and fever...ng sabay kami. It was soooo hard...Simon felt his first symptoms 2 days after our galera trip. He felt so weak and eventually turned out to be a sore throat and fever that lasted for 3 days. On wednesday, i felt his symptoms also (turned out i nahawa ako because of all the pag-aalaga i gave him). okay lang naman coz my fever lasted for a day lang pero syempre, we still can't do anything aside from eating a lifeless noodle soup for days, drink a lot of orange juice, pineapple juice and water. grabe! Jane and her fiance had to go to our house and check on us and brought some pabili i made for us...noodles, more juices, and medicines. we did'nt take antibiotics coz we wanted to counsult a doctor first. monday, first day of work from holy week, we consulted a doctor even if sore throat na lang ang nararamdaman namin. she advised us to take antibiotics for 7 days. it's my 7th day today and we're very well na.
despite being weak and feeling helpless for the whole of holy week, there were things we loved while feeling pain and sick:
~ i love the fact that we took care of each other. lagi kasi salitan yung fever namin, so if i was feeling strong, id take care of him and i he feels better, he'd take care of me. sarap!
~ simon told me that he felt that I was really a blessing and that he felt blessed knowing that I take care of him kahit may sakit sya.
~ we had so much bonding moments and quality time talking about life and other stuffs
~ I'm loving him more and more...each day is God's gift to us and that we only feel gratitude for everything that is being given to us.
I love you beh...thank you for being my nurse...and doctor...hehe.

The one with the Puerto Galera virgin
Yes, Im a certified Puerto Galera virgin...super had a blast...probably one of the most fun outings we had ni simon. we were with our best friends, my greenpark darlings together with Naan's boyfriend, jason. we were saddened that Jhon(Jill's fiance) wasnt able to go with us for missionary work but we know he is more needed somewhere else than be with us. grabe, we left manila last April 7 at 4:00 in the morning. nihatid naman kami ni Mang Rey (driver of jill's dad) to Kamuning Jam Liner. We rode a 5:00 trip to Batangas pier. grabe, etong mga friends ko nag-CR pa.umaandar na ang bus, wala pa! hahaha. sabi namin, "manong, sandali lang po...wala pa po yung mga kasama namin!" and so they waited...upon reaching the pier, we got the Mt. Samat ferry na. syempre, my friend jannet and my hubby rode the ferry for the first time. hihihi...kaya excited sila at nagpa-picture kme. when Naan asked this guy to take our pic, sya pala yung captain! hahaha...katawa! after the trip, we went up to their deck, shoot some more pictures, and nakita na lang namin kumakaway na yung daddy ni Jill na sinundo kme. May van na waiting for us to Napocor plant staff house. it was an almost all-paid expense trip for us. we only paid for our transportation and a little on things we bought for them as tokens. everything was already taken cared of.
on our first day, we were so hyper we got to do everything we wanted! banana boat, boating from one island to another, snorkeled. although wasnt able to enjoy the snorkeling much. i had trouble with the vest. for some reasons, i could'nt breathe. i opted to just stay at the banana boat after 10 mins. sayang, although the corals i saw were not that good, hehe. rationalizing! compared to bora's kasi, mejo brownish and wala masyado fish. i had a hard time going up the banana boat. for a while nga, naawa me sa sarili ko kasi sa super bigat na ng legs ko, hindi ko talaga mabuhat sarili ko. kawawa naman ako... :( after snorkeling, we went to this island na unti lang ang nag-swim. we collected stones. dun ako nag-enjoy! saya! i even used the snorkeling gadgets para makita ko mabuti yung stones...cool! (oh, and the memorable experience naan had...wont make kwento na about it..hehe)
on our 2nd day, we were in a more relaxed mode. we woke up late, had a very good breakfast, did some grocery, prepared our food for our bonfire/bbq, then headed to galera white beach to swim. man! dami tao, as in! di nakaka-relax. the beach, i dunno, bigla na lang lalalim...scary noh! kaya nasa malapit lang kme ng shore nag-swim. we also bought sarongs for us and jason and simon bought sandos with puerto galera print in it. nice! 530pm, mang dodo fetched us...in a boat! naks! ang saya! feeling sosi...everyone was staring at us kasi parang "wow, may boat sila..." hahaha...galing! we stayed on this private island called abang ilog, did some pictorials, the men put on the fire and barbequed all the meat we bought. walang light, we hardly see what they are roasting. and dami pa buhangin kme nakain...crunchy! sa super gutom namin, kinain pa rin namin lahat yun! hahaha. kaya ayun, days after we're back in manila, nagka sore throat kme and lagnat lahat...haayy!
tapos, pauwi namin mali ang nasakyan namin na bus! hahaha. so much for a perfect getaway! we paid P900+ for all of us tapos ibang bus nasakyan namin,so we had to pay again. good thing, naan was so OC she allocated a contingency fund for us that we were able to use for the bus trip back to manila.
truly, one of the most fun summer getaways with my bestfriends!!!

The one with blogger help
haay....i just want to have a cleaner look for my blog..i attempted to change the skin. saved the template to note pad muna, just in case. ayan, di ko na naibalik to the original design. all my flickr, tag boards are gone...huhuhu...di bale, sa holy week, aayusin ko to ulit. haha, daming gusto gawin sa holy week noh?!
so, what did i eat yesterday???hmmm...oatmeal for breakfast, no lunch, one slice of shakey's pizza, some chicken, 2 pcs. mojos, and ga-platito ng pansit for dinner. pwede na ba? kaya lang napakain ako ng 1 chocopie...sweet so parang ganun din. hahaha.
last night, we went to naan's house to meet about galera. so there, tuloy na tuloy na kme pero we still have to convince jannet to reschedule her interview so she can go with us. hmmm, excited ba kme ng hubby ko??? pwede na pero hindi masyado honestly kasi going to galera means that we might not push thru with our family outing on simon's bday. we intend kasi to shoulder all expenses for that outing (with his family and mine) kaya lang with all the gastos, credit card payments, utility billings, etc., it might not push thru. pero gusto ko pa rin matuloy. it's the first bday na mag-asawa na kme and i want it to be special...may profit sharing kme na darating sa bday nya so im gonna get some dough, pero syempre ayaw namin ubusin lahat diba. hmmm, let's see kung matutuloy. :)
Belated happy birthday ritz! dedeliver ko na lang C2 mo ha!

The one with ala Avenetto
it was a sunday...a day na magkasama kme ni simon the whole day! i prepared goof este good food for my hubby. katuwa, the thing they say about how cooking can be an art and a therapy...well, it's true. i tried to cook yesterday without a tv on, just music by Norah Jones. my goodness, i felt so encouraged and excited while cooking...nag set up pako. haha. i cooked Carbonara ala avenetto style. super creamy sauce with chicken, meat, and mushrooms...yummy!
then, i also prepared a caesar salad on the side. sweet corn, tomatoes, cucumber, and lettuce...grabe! next time, i'll prepare the dressing from scratch. hihi.
it was a good day...we laughed lang the whole day...we were trying to marathon kasi Smallville season 5. after the disc 3, simon sang, "May bukas pa...ang buhay mo..." hahaha...katawa talaga yung asawa kong yun...i so love him! :)
tapos ngayon, im eating na lang a lifeless oatmeal for breakfast. nilagyan ko na lang ng chocolate and milk to taste better. getting serious in the losing weight thing. will do jogging with my hubby the whole of holy week, will also NOT eat rice for two weeks muna. so goodbye rice! excited nako mag-bakasyon!!!

The one with all in a day's work
it does'nt feel like friday...whole day me nakaupo typing, editing and reading for my marketing plan. dami pa nangyari sa life...haaayyy...
before i join brand management, ive always thought that it will be a dream come true having to handle a brand of your own. somehow, i know i'am qualified for that position. and now im here, it hits me...am i really capable???do i have what it takes???is it all worth it? ive always felt blessed that i always have everything that i want. promise, mabait si Lord sa ken knowing that He grants my every wish. and ive longed for this. looking back, during the assessment, ive had sleepless nights trying to prove that i have what it takes to be a brandman. everyone in the Management applauded my presentation and even commented if i've a mentor or something. i did'nt have a background kasi in marketing so it was a surprise to them having to see and hear me present. i know God was with me. so i got it.
now...this is the real thing. i was given new brands to be launched this year. it would have been exciting and interesting had it not with all the internal "directives" hindering. i dont like to brand it personalan...i just can't please everyone. is it because im a lady??? is it because i dont have a marketing background???when things like this happen, i pray and think that this is JUST work. it should'nt affect me and should'nt control my life.
siguro im just anxious of the launching...gusto ko na sya malabas and work on all those activities planned. enough with that, sabi na ngang it wont control my life, so it shouldnt be also in my blog...hehe. just feel like sharing. so to my dear officemate, i respect the decision you made of leaving our group. it pains me but i know you made the right decision. as long as it will make you happy, i will support you.
moving on, i miss how thin i was before the wedding. haay! despite the fact that madge told me na ako lang daw ata ang bride na hindi tumaba, i know tumaba ako! my goodness, one officemate even shouted at me kanina na ang taba ko daw ngayon...while in a fire drill with everybody else around...i could'nt feel embarassed or offended as it might be taken against me so i just laughed and told her, "oo nga eh...as in 10 pounds and im still counting, nahiyang masyado with married life" honestly, i dont get offended when people greet me na tumataba me...not at all kasi totoo naman. i think it's my signal na to really be serious with my diet. hehe. :)

The one with a negative
I bought a pregnancy kit...the staff in Mercury Drug was looking at me while i asked for a kit...akala siguro disgrasyada me. hehe. good thing i had my ring on. nyahaha.
anyway, what made me bought a kit was when simon touched my "puson" and felt that it was getting big. syempre, na-excite kme pareho.
yun pala, negative...so this is all PUSON...
haayyy...di ko tuloy alam san ako nalungkot...sa malaki kong puson o sa walang baby...
parang pareho...hahaha...
ang init na talaga!!!

The one with a post-celebration
Simon and I will be checking in at Richmonde Hotel today! (a gift from our AE there) it will be our post-valentines, post-anniv celebration! we only had dinners on these occasions, nothing really special. that's why we think it will be more appropriate that we treat ourselves right?! diba?!
im so excited... :-) happy weekend everyone!

The one with a question
Kung ikaw ay may alagang aso na "askal" o native, bibigyan mo ba sya ng pagkain na parang dog food na pwede mong gawing ulam at ihalo sa mga tira-tira mong pagkain? Kung mabibili mo ang dog ulam na yun sa mababang halaga at makikita mo sa tindahan at supermarket, gugustuhin mo ba bilin yun?
Sagot na!!! :-)
Sagot na!!! :-)

The one with tired eyes
I never realized how I tend to overwork my eyes until my eyes felt really red and swollen yesterday. Minsan nga, naduduling na lang ako kaka-computer, tapos pupuyat pa these past few days, and kulang na lang masama ko na ang produkto ko sa pagtulog ko.(pero napapanaginipan ko na nga eh, arf! arf!)
i need to get new computer glasses...
Last night, i had an emergency meeting with a friend. wala lang, napaisip lang ako of so many things. each of us are blessed in one way or the other, we really can't have everything in life...i know that and i've used that as one of my principles in life. it taught me actually how to be contented and feel fulfilled in life even if you dont have everything...you learn to appreciate what you have. pero for some people, there will come a point in one's life that he takes for granted what he has in his life to achieve something that he thinks will be best for him. what if that something will not really make him happy and the one person who makes him happy will leave him for she's the one he took for granted??? feelings of a broken and hurting heart...now the question, how do they fix it? how does she tell him to leave his so-called dreams for her? how should he take it? should he choose between the person he loves most or a dream he has always wanted for the longest time? if this dream hinders their love for each other, what path should they take???
ang hirap noh...kahit ako, di ko alam if i said the right advices...pero one thing i know...Love will prevail and i know they have lots of it. Sis, love kita...

The one with the 7th year
time flies so fast...last feb. 22 was our 7th year. hehe, took me this long before i can write about it. (read: work) anyway, nakakatuwa lang how a simple night can turn out to be really sweet. how the day went was not something that would encourage you to feel sweet and romantic mainly because it was so darn traffic in EDSA because of all the rallies and the threats of a coup d etat. we left our offices and headed straight to Eastwood, hoping we could relive the wedding proposal moment. it was so jammed, it took us 1 and a half hours to travel from mandaluyong to libis. sa pagod ni simon and sa gutom namin, we were so looking forward for dinner. much to our surprise, the restaurant where simon proposed closed already! huwwaaaattt...???!!! kaloka tlga! so we ended up in Pasto, ordered lotsa-lotsa great foods and ate to our heart's desires! grabe! after that, we enjoyed dessert and finally gave in to my cravings for cheesecake at Cheesecake, etc. (where else diba?) been craving for it for 3 week na. pero in fairness, mas masarap ang cheesecake ng Richmonde hotel...no kidding! try nyo! :)
so amusing lang how it turned out to be sweet. we played our favorite road game, Black or White. You just give each other choices of which you want better. For example, "loving-loving ng gutom" o "busog pero walang loving-loving"; toyota o mitsubishi' KFC o Chickenjoy? and the list goes on...grabe, kakatawa talaga! at ang babaw tlga namin!
yun lang. happy anniversary beh and thank you for always making me happy!

3. conduct of 3rd trial with products
4. visit vet clinic this friday or saturday

3. make some accessories for myself lang
4. record songs for the video...ehem, ehem, boses namin gagamitin

The one with a dent
Oh mi gas!!! what a way to spend my friday... left the house early coz of coding scheme. on my way, was hit by another car. :( it was a minor dent on her part (apparently our car is as vintage as ever) and i still think that i have nothing to do with it since i stopped and i even shifted my gear to neutral coz i gave her the way to go first. well, what happened ata was that hindi sya kasya and miscalculated...so i just felt my car shaking, knowing na pinagkakasya nya na pala sarili nya sa road. tsk, tsk. masama lang nun feeling ng lahat it's my fault...where in fact, nakahinto lang ako. haayy....but God is still good. was not harmed, minor dent and hindi ako pinagbayad on anything. i dont know, alam din naman kasi ng girl that it was not my fault...ang fault ko lang siguro was that i was too close on her, kasi dapat nga ako mauuna, but she already had her bumper pasingit so pinagbigyan ko na. anyway, okay na yun. im just so glad nothing happened. and thanks to my behbeh for coming over to the scene of the crime agad...kahit hindi pa ligo. hihihi.
I also submitted na my article. hope magustuhan nila...
Yesterday was a big day for my behbeh. For days, he hasnt talked about anything else except laptops. kakasabi nya, ang dami ko na rin alam sa mga laptops. hehehe. and yesterday, nakabili na kme! yahoo! thank you Lord for the blessing. kakatuwa. super happy sya sa nabili nya. Compaq chuchu...hihi. dami ganda features and so right for his work. im happy for him and he deserves it. :) love you beh! enjoy your laptop!
it will be a pretty busy week for me i think. oh well. happy week! hope i could upload pics na. haay!
