Living Mye Life

Our lines are down in the office for two days. And the most irritating part is we are included in the 2-hour rotating brownout yesterday and can you imagine being in a place that was so hot, no electricity, no internet, no music and we can only talked to each other and waste your time doing nothing and then going home feeling weak. If I have known that it will be the same today, I should have stay at home and do something more meaningful. Sleep? Rest? Ha-ha!

see? I'm kind of bored.. ha-ha!

While looking for some things to do to occupied our time, first picture with our new office mate (seated in the right), Gelai.

My online friends are asking me if I could come with them to Cathy’s shooting location in Pililia, Rizal today. The place is quite far and they will stay overnight and I’m afraid I can’t do that. If I were single and unavailable like them, perhaps I’m with them right now and going to the location shooting of our favorite artists. But I have to refrain doing that since I got married. Hubby is understanding and its okay with it, but I have stop myself. Self discipline is also a virtue =) I’ll just see them through the pictures they will post in our thread site.

Tonight, I can sleep late and wake up late tomorrow because it’s a public holiday! What a great feeling!:)

It’s my dearest husband’s birthday today. I wonder if there is anything I could buy him as my gift but I can’t really think of anything. When I woke up and I know that he’s already awake, I sing a happy birthday song on my hoarse voice while still lying on the bed and he said thank you! And I gave him my gift. After the party yesterday in Jollibee, we went straight to Mall of Asia and I bought the one thing I heard from him. It’s when he said that he doesn’t have any perfume anymore. And I know that Benetton hot is one of his favorite perfumes and that’s spare me from head ache on what to buy as a present.

I cooked spaghetti carbonara and I baked chocolate cupcakes for him that afternoon, my Aunt and Uncle come over and gave him a LEE shirt. I thought we will have no time to watch Clash of the Titans anymore but he said, we still have time and besides its Monday, no more people rush on the mall. And we watched the movie on a 7:15pm schedule with my sister, Reine and Mico.

We bought a mocca roll cake in Red Ribbon bake shop. And before the end of the day, we both shared a slice of cake before we went to sleep. I just wish him good health and I thank God for having him in my life.

Last Sunday night, went to Cowboy Grill and celebrate with his friend and my sister. We had an amazing night and we really enjoyed the live band. The best time to unwind. =)

Parties and birthdays are some Easter Sunday celebrations I attended. It was a fun filled day for me and for the kids who attended my officemate’s son who turns one year old. Mico and Franzine came with me and my eldest sister because hubby wasn’t able to go with us. Two of my girl office mates were also there and it was more on adult dominated party because the kids are either too young or shy (like Franzine) to joined the games. It turned out to be an adult party when everybody was able to participate and had fun.

Franzine made some major changes. She’s not that shy anymore and when she turned four years old already, we noticed that she can now interact with other kids and were able to go near the mascot and sing a birthday song even when she’s away from us. She’s really growing up. We hope she can carry on like that till she can join the party games in the future like her elder cousins.

We went to San Pedro Parish church to hear the 3pm mass, it turns out to be a 2-hour mass (Seven last Words) plus procession of the statues after the mass. It was a time to repent and reflect and thank God for His sacrifice to save us. We thank God for all the blessings and good health, and a wish to have a little joy in our life that will make us complete.

We went back home here in Paranaque while my mother-in law is still in Pampanga with her sister to attend to a family gathering. This year, we didn’t spent the Holy Week out of town. But it feels good just to lay your back in the chair and watch some old movies together. Really feels good at home.

Have a blessed weekend to all of us =)

The cool breeze in the garden was so perfect that we decided to eat lunch under the mango tree. I missed the time when we still living at Nayong Pilipino vicinity and my father created a round table near the fish pond and then we ate altogether during summer time. I still feel nostalgic when I think of our life before, my Papa had a big garden and if you sing the children song of “Bahay Kubo”, we had it all there in my father’s garden. That’s how good his green thumb is. As if we are living in a province within the city.

He still tending his garden now, though smaller compares to what we had before, but he managed to plant some fruit bearing trees, vegetables and raise some chickens and eggs too! And some exotic reptiles like turtles. I love talking to Papa about his interests and asking him about what we used to do before. It brings back the good old memories again.
