Trick or Treat Party

We will be having our first get together for Ann Li’s (PBB Teen Edition) supporters this Saturday, October 30.  And as usual, I am one of the busiest coordinator and I’m making it an afternoon to remember especially to the newbie’s whose age ranges to 12-15 years old.  It’s a Halloween meet-ups and I’m expecting everyone wearing their scariest costumes including me (he-he).  I already bought some giveaways for the first 24 early birds to register in the venue (Max’s restaurant in Greenbelt, Makati) and I got a cute rag dolls for the two best in costume award plus other freebies donated by some supporters. 

I’m expecting a lot for this get together and I’m happy to meet new faces and old friends in this event.  I’m hoping for the best.

In God's Time

Have you ever wished you could turn back the time? Those were the times that you thought you had wonderful and great times with them. But after all what was said and done and you both challenged each others with words that you couldn't take back anymore, you will keep asking yourself. What went wrong?

But they said that people tend to tell what’s really on their hearts when they’re angry. And you wanted to believe with that somehow and some point because you can’t see any excuse to explain everything. It made you realize that the friendship you build over the years was not enough. There will always been a trust issues after all. They said that it takes years to build the reputation and only few seconds to destroy it. Now you don’t know whose reputations are now destroyed. Though you don’t want to think about it, you always felt a heavy heart every time it crosses your mind. Sometimes, you just can’t let go and forget all about it. It keeps coming back and stab you over and over again. It created a deep impact in your life and you will have it forever.


Forgive those who asked for forgiveness and then move on. Can it still bring back the old times? We don’t know. Maybe, someday, in God’s time.

Spare Time

I took a 2-day leave at work and this is what I did on my extra time.  I cooked lumpiang togue (which consists of a togue veggies, cabbage, carrots and small shrimps). It is hubby's favorite and he asked me cooked it for him. The special spicy vinegar we bought in Tapa King restaurant was a perfect partner for this all time food.

I also baked banana-cheese cupcakes and I bought some to my officemates.  I am baking this recipe from time to time to master the recipe so I can sell them in time of the Yuletide Season.  It was raining and super typhoon devastated the northern part of the country and it spared Metro Manila this time, but staying at home just relaxing and resting brings back my energy, in time for more work ahead when I go back to the office.

Home Again

My friend Mitch who came home from US after 6 years, treat us to a sumptuous lunch at Gerry’s Grill in Tomas Morato.  I came late because they still watched the live show of ASAP in a local TV station just in front of Gerry’s.  It’s like a little reunion and we continue chatting while singing in Music Box for two hours.  Ann Li was supposed to be with us but unfortunately, she was tired from her exams early that morning. 

 

It was a nice bonding and they really sings well ;)  and the rain can’t stop us from enjoying that moment.  In the coming days, Mitch will be very busy on her errands and I just hope we can still see each other before she left to US next month.  





They said we looked like sisters :)

Bon Voyage!

Doc Ed will be leaving to Singapore this Tuesday but he never forgot to meet us that Sunday.  We ate at Chillis in Greenbelt 5 in Makati and we talked about his 3 weeks stint in Italy.  He even gave us a scented rosary and it was really beautiful.  His pictures of the enormous pizzas while they dine at a local restaurant there were awesome.  I want to go there too! Ha-ha! 

Ann Li and her friend April came by and we chat as we dig on a veggie salad (but I still don’t like it and I only ate the chicken toppings). But the mini burgers and the pesto pasta were great.   Ann gave Doc Ed a souvenir signed photos and we stayed for an hour in Seattle’s Best.  I'm gonna miss some good times with Doc Ed, he’s one of a person I'd like to talk to, highly intelligent and very accomadating.   He’s a pediatrician and he will specialize in Oncology in Singapore.  We will meet you again, doc, after three years.  Take care of yourself, God bless and thanks for all the wonderful times we had with our fellow Jamli friends.

Hairy Problem

I have to do something to my hair (ha-ha!) I noticed that it’s longer now and it’s frizzy! Hair nightmare! I told hubby about it and he told me, “Yah, it’s kind of dull and dry” and I answered, “Kind of?! It’s super dry!”  But he replied that I shouldn’t worry, I just need to go to my favorite hair centre in Mall of Asia and problem solved. 


The problem is, if hair this long (below bra line) then the price of hair treatment is expensive (they based on hair length) plus I really wanted to try the colored cellophane for my hair.  But then our 6th year anniversary is fast approaching and maybe I could sweet talk hubby to that it will be his anniversary gift for me so my conscience wouldn’t bug me of the costly slash to our budget because of my hair.  The thing is I need to think about it many times, and that will be my biggest problem (he-he).

Stay at home

Today, I fulfilled hubby’s request to cook for them. We went at the wet market early and bought his wish viand for the day which is pork binagoongan. I said last time that I will cook the baked lasagna since I have a lasagna noodles I bought in Subic the last time we went there. He reminded me to buy the ingredients, meaning that is his requested snack in the afternoon.

Cooking lunch is an easy job for me and they like the new variations I’ve done so that it will not turn too salty but I never imagined that baking lasagna will be that tiring and will take too long to cook. It’s my first time to cook it and I told my hubby that I will never question again why the price of lasagna in a restaurant or fast food is way too higher than spaghetti (ha-ha!). After I baked the lasagna, I’ve got two thumbs up approval from my mother in law and most especially from my hubby. But I swear I will never cook/bake it again except for some very special occasions. I was so tired I told hubby I want to sleep early.


So, who says that staying at home during weekend can be too boring? Well, not for me, I enjoy staying at home while reading my books or just cooking for them.

Rest and Relax

This weekend, we will just stay at home and relax. After some controversial incident happened at work last week, I felt I needed this much needed rest. Though it’s not much physically but more on mental aspect, in due time all of us will have our own peace of mind and we can all move on. As for me, I’ll regard this as a new chapter in life, knowing that you really can’t please everybody and trust and honesty is all that matters.


Staying at home makes me concentrate on the books my hubby gave me. I’m a fast reader and just hours of continues reading I can finish one whole book which has 3 different stories. I can’t find time to read those books because we focused on watching the US series we bought in Quiapo and that occupies most of my time after work and during weekends and made me feel sleepy at work. I hope hubby will not ask me to go to Quiapo since we need to buy the last two seasons of Tudors and the season one of Glee is incomplete so we need to replace it.


It feels good to be at home and enjoy the moment with your family. Happy Weekend, friends! :)
