Whole New World

I always dream of posting or writing a blog about our baby. But it took years to finally make this first post.  All I know is dreams do come true.  And I always believe that God will find the ways so we can have what we prayed for.  Carl Nathan came to our life just when we needed him most.  A bundle of joy, an angel to our family and most of all, he kept us together.  Everyone was ecstatic to meet him, everyone got a gift for him, and they keep on visiting our house just to see Nathan. 

I could not ask for more to have this moment.  Hubby and I just can’t get enough on what to buy or plan on what to do next.  But all I know is that this is the real feelings.  And I love how it feels  ;) 

Welcome to our family and to our world, Carl Nathan. Daddy and Mommy love you so much!

All for One

Ann was late on her get together party that was held in Max’s Restaurant last Saturday because she has a go-see for a TV commercial that day. We went on with the program and Jenny Kim, her friend in the Pinoy Big Brother house graced the show and she was very candid and fun to be with. 

I’m assigned in the registration area and I brought along Reine with me so she can help me bring those large plastics and boxes of cupcakes I needed in the party.  I was surprised that many came to the event and Ann is well loved by her supporters.  When Ann came with her pretty bunny outfit, everybody was ecstatic.  She knows how to make her fans happy and she made funny faces with Jenny.  The trivia questions games was quite a revelations to many.  I can see that everybody was excited with lots of foods, games and give away in store for them that day. I'm telling you, the attendees age ranges from 11years old to 40years old from all walks of life.

It’s so hard to organize an event like this where there are lots of pressures and last minute decisions but seeing how Ann cooperate with us and in making this day a memorable one, I can set aside my tired feelings and cant help but smile and enjoyed the rest of the night hanging out with them.

Some Good Things Never Last

It is my first time not to spend Halloween in Laguna.  Every year, we decorated our house in Laguna and beat the other houses for the scariest house award.  The kids had fun in the trick or treat, visiting every house asking for candies.  But it’s different this year.  We will not go there anymore or to celebrate New Year or just to feel cozy every weekend.  My youngest sister decided to put the house on sale and we can only sigh of cant-do-anything-about-it-anymore. 

Good thing my brother’s house in Alabang is in its finishing touches and the developer will turn over the documents and the house to my sister at the end of November.  We will have a new place to stay if we get bored in the city life. 

I can only remember all the good memories in that house.  I wish I am a millionaire so I can buy that house and continue the happy times with my family.  But I am not so I need to content myself of wishing that someday, I can have a house like that for my family.  Soon.

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 :)
