Star News

I was browsing some US showbiz news online when I read something about Kanye West outburst to Taylor Swift during her acceptance speech for Best Female Video award in the recent MTV awards night.  That was so rude and celebrities reacted against him. Well, Beyonce made a gallant act on saving Taylor by calling her again to finish her speech. It was all over the news and in the You Tube and also, I think the Michael Jackson tribute by Madonna and his sister was so cool.  

Dirty dancing is my favorite dance movie of all time.  It became a super hit movie in the year 1987 with many people fell in love with the main man, Patrick Swayze.  And who would forget the movie Ghost with Demi Moore?  It was one of the super blockbuster movies of all time and I once watched it over and over with my friends.  It is in the breaking news that he died yesterday due to pancreatic cancer.  He’s a great loss to the Hollywood industries.  But his music and movies will always be with us forever.

Old Memories

It’s been a rainy September this year. And were almost in the middle of the month and next month, October, is our wedding month. A while ago, when im cleaning one of our drawers to throw away some of the unused or broken headsets, chargers and wires, I opened one of the small boxes which contain mostly of receipts, food recipe cut outs and papers. I found one thing that I never thought I still have with me. It’s the receipt of the dinner we had in Waterfront Cebu City Hotel during our first wedding anniversary. We went there for 5 days and we enjoyed places and every minute that we spent together. Time really flies and now we are about to celebrate our fifth year together. We still don’t have plans but I wish we could go somewhere out of town just like before. But i hope the rains will stop.

I still cant think of any gifts that he might like. Men things are really common but expensive. I still have a month to do that. Might as well ask for some suggestions =)

Talented

Franzine is now 3 years old, she can now appreciate things around her. And like my nieces and nephews, she is talkative, lively and cheerful who never fails to ask why in every answer you gave her. She likes to dance and sing though she can’t pronounce words perfectly (in short, bulol) but that doesn’t stop her from talking fast and wandering around. She loves fried chicken so much and sometimes want to eat just salt and oil mix with rice,haha! poor girl! =)

But toddlers are moody, but when in the good mood, expect the unexpected. So, when I asked her to dance for me because I need to check on my camera if the video is still working (but that’s just my way so I can pursue her to do it). I played her favorite dance song and the video can tell you what I’ve been telling you about her. Enjoy! =)

Events Today

Hubby’s sad today. Why? Because when the rest of us are enjoying another non-working holiday, electronics and bpo’s company are exempted from the special proclamation and that includes his company. Last night, they had to work overnight for a special project in which they have to adjust their working time for their US counterparts. He went home at 6am today and as much as he wanted to rest and get more sleep, his phone keeps on ringing and he has no choice but to go back to work again.

My sisters and I went to see Aubrey at her school while they practice volleyball. The four sisters are complete and we’re joking that we are indeed a stage Tita’s, ha-ha! Of course, Aubrey got so conscious that she hardly made it on the service area. So we stayed there for just a few minutes and bid her goodbye. But we gave her the snacks and water and wish her goodluck.

It’s raining again and I’m here stuck at home. Need to do something to keep me busy. Tomorrow is yet another day.

Happy Times

It’s so sad when I saw that my female love bird died in unknown reason. I just saw the pair the night I went up to sleep just to found out that the wife died in the morning. They said that if I left alone the other pair, it will die too because of loneliness. My family and I went to Cartimar in Pasay and bought this cute little blue female love bird, she’s so cute that I thought she’s a perfect match for my yellow male. And it’s true, they are such a lovely couple (though at first they stayed away from each other for a while). Their nest is new and my sister gave them a cuttle bone.


The rain can’t stop us from making this weekend a memorable family day. My niece and nephew stayed here in our house and I’m so glad that they can feel so comfortable with me even without their mommies on their side. Franzine is the newest addition to our big family. She’s my cousin’s daughter whose working in Dubai (with her hubby) and she can make us laugh with her adorable smile and talents. She likes to sing and dance, especially the song Nobody by Wonder Girls. When in the mood, she would show us all her dance moves and actions. And she likes to stay with us during weekends. So when I bring her to Mall of Asia today, I let her ride in Carousel with Aubrey (to look after her) and I saw how that little gesture made her very happy and she even hugged me after the ride.

We all went to Quaipo and Ongpin yesterday and my sister treated Mom with a gold ring. Strolling around with your family can make a big difference in our busy schedules and that is enough for us.



Whenever they visits me, it was always a jam packed room. I can always feel that my room is too small to accomodate them all =)

Changes

The sister of our administrator here in our office passed away last Sunday. And tonight is the last night of the wake, so we all went there in her place after work and pay our respect to her family. We are almost complete in attendance (including the couriers) that we filled the chairs and tables outside their house. Our condolences to Santos family and we pray for the eternal repose of her soul.

September 1 marked the sudden changes in our organizational chart. Our immediate supervisor was transferred to another project and far away from all of us and will be replaced by a new set of managers and officers in charge. It’s been three years that we all worked out together and tried to make everything all right for this project. There are ups and down but I can say that this team is one of the happiest I’ve been with since I worked here 6 years ago. I can always feel the sadness in my heart seeing someone going out (and never come back again) and saying their goodbyes. But as we know, there is nothing permanent except change. One day, we will all come to the point of deciding what is best for us and just hope that it will be for the better. So to our supervisor, good luck and just be happy and may the force be with you always.

Happenings

The 3-day weekend are about to end and i think the next holiday will be on November and that means we have to use our leave credits at work if want to do something on weekdays. Hubby and I with Vince and Franzine went on a birthday party of hubby’s friend and office mate’s son last Saturday. And these two kids had a blast especially Franzine who really likes to see magic shows and Vince had a dragon tattoo on his arm. Aubrey Reine wasn’t able to come because she had a practice at school where she was chosen in their school’s volleyball team. She’s becoming to be a big girl now.




We went to Laguna after the party to relax but not to forget my hubby's malling time. We strolled around Festival Mall in Alabang (near San Pedro) and we played at Tom's world (always had a kids in us) and treat ourselves on a Racks dinner. It has been a tiring week for me, i don't know (lack of sleep, maybe?) There are so many activities the whole day, late night sleep and then early morning wake up time (because the kids always knocks on the door to wake us up!) My cousin came from IlocosSur because she will pick his hubby up in the airport from the Middle East, a little bonding time again till its time to wrap up everything and went home. I will surely miss this long vacation.
