12th AnNiVeRsArY...

I can’t help but smile and vividly recall the happy events in the past… After some petty fights and love quarrels in between those years, life is still blissful as what we envision it to be… We’ve never been a perfect couple, hardships come and go but we’re able to get over it because GOD keeps our relationship intact… Our love for each other has grown and became mature through the years… I want to let you know that up to this day, I am still over the moon…

To my then boyfriend and now my husband, here’s a bunch of red roses for you… With all my heart and soul, I will never stop loving you… Words are not enough to express how much I heart you! Happy 12th Anniversary!

Here’s another one! How I wish that roses comes with a cute tot…


Honey, this song's for you… I LOVE YOU VERY MUCH!

Because you love me
(by: Celine Dion)
.
For all those times you stood by me

For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful baby
You're the one who held me up Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through, through it all
.
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am Because you loved me
.
You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you
.
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am Because you loved me
.
You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration Through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you
.
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am Because you loved me
I'm everything I am Because you loved me

sO SaD bEcAusE...

......................You’ll never know what will happen next!!!

Yesterday at around 5:45 pm (local time) we receive a call from manila… T’s mom called her and while they're on the middle of the conversation I heard T's voice rise as if she was shocked and about to freak out. Then the phone was handed to TJ and he in turn immediately passed it to me. I, on the other hand, without any idea on what was really going on was so puzzled, so I immediately ask my tita what is the fuss all about? She abruptly said, “The father of TJ passed away awhile ago, please do tell him what happened for I don’t have to courage to do so”… My sister and I delivered the sad news to TJ, as we all broke down in tears… I asked him to call his mom (who’s base in US) and let her know what happened and I would say that was one toughie task… Next thing we did, we drove to the 24 hours travel agency and booked him the earliest flight that we could get… Luckily, we got a slot and he'll be able to fly the next morning…

TJ is one of my 3 cousins (as I mentioned on my previous post) who came here a month ago to hunt for a job, but lo and behold this incident happened leaving him with enormous sadness… By this time his aboard the plane bound to manila along with happy passengers who are excited to go home for a short vacation, contrary on the other end, this young man is enveloped with tears and sorrow while his dad lies in a beautiful white casket as he waits for his only son’s loving presence…

His father has been suffering from kidney failure and undergoing dialysis while he was also diagnosed with high blood pressure and diabetes.
.
To our uncle Gregorio “Boy”, No more pain and No more sufferings, may you have eternal happiness in the paradise after life… May your soul rest in peace…
.
To Tita Lisa (the wife), I know your life was never that easy since tito boy got sick but life goes on, you have to be strong for your only son. You are one good example of a good provider, a loving wife and a suppotive mother...
.
To TJ (the son), be strong we are all here to support you...
We'll be missing you for awhile but we're looking forward to see you again next month...
.
~~~oooOOOooo~~~

Side note:

Being miles away from your love ones is very difficult
It’s even harder whenever mishaps happen and physically you are not around to give them comfort

Considering the fact that you’ve been away from them for months or even years
And now, it will be too late for you to hug and kiss that person again

Even we’re located in different parts of the world
Always give time to your love ones

So what are we waiting for, make a call and spread the love
Make them feel that they are very special and well loved

Don’t wait for the time when it will be too late
A simple or short call will give a big impact in nourishing long distance relationship

And most of all, always say a prayer for all your love ones
May God bless us together with our families back home

WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT?!?

jUsT aNoThEr PoSt...

Today is just another ordinary day, nothing significant and nothing new…
Geeeshhh, it’s been ages since my last post, well, I guess I have to start and do something to win my mojo back…
.
Summer is on and the heat of the sun is extremely hot, imagine you are experiencing 38-50 deg. during daytime. It’s unbearable to go outside in the middle of the day but despite the heat, I suffered from colds few weeks ago. Though Mr. Flu is not yet totally gone, I still manage to drink cold water and have some ice cream to fight the soaring heat. And due to the extreme temperature, definitely our electricity bill will shoot up doubled, which means I have to adjust our monthly budget and squeeze in my shopping spree.
.
Talk about shopping, since it’s Summer Sale, it’s very tempting to go on shopping and I can’t resist the temptation. Mango is on sale up to 80% off, and of course who am I to let this pass, so I bought 6 tops and 2 jeans from Mango. I wasn’t really able to grab many items because the store is too crowded with shoppers on panic mode and because of that, the store end up to be like an ukay-ukay shop while all shoppers (including me) wanted to get hold of the best items on sale. A lot of shops are on sale but I wasn’t able to check on their stores (except GAP which I bought 1 pair of flip-flops and BOSSINI which I bought 4 pants) due to our tight budget. All of a sudden we have to tighten our budget, why? Unexpectedly our washing machine broke down last week, we ask somebody to check on it but it took him ages to show up. As we assume that the repair will be costly, hubby and I decided to purchase a new one since our laundry basket is already full (as in uber full) and we badly needed to wash all the dirty clothes. Late sunday night our new Daewoo washing machine was delivered. Maybe you are wondering what happen to the broken one, well, until this time the tech guy hasn’t come yet to check on it, we just placed it outside to give space for the new one. See we have purchased something which is out of our budget, so we have to adjust everything, geeeessshhh!
.
Aside from unexpected purchase, we have 3 guests at home. Three cousins of mine came last June, not to simply visit us but to hunt for a job. They are staying with us right now, because of that we have to top our food or grocery budget and as expected it ballooned doubled. Not only that, since they don’t know how to cook, I have to carry the burden to cook for their everyday meals, imagine after work without even changing my office clothes, I have to direct myself to the kitchen to cook our viand. Before, I have the magic and option between cooking or simply dine out but for now I am stuck. Cooking is ok but it's horrifying to think of what to prepare everyday and that gives me a bad head ache. I am not complaining though, honestly I am happy to have them around because it has changed the quiet atmosphere at home and they have filled our dull home with laughter. Now I have to spell BUDGET in all caps --- hihihi… On hubby’s side, he’s very accommodating though he only whines whenever he gets little sleep, due to never ending chit-chats we end up sleeping late :-)... For now we’re on TIPID mode until the time my cousins will be settled, I hope it will be soon…
.
To all who passed by, thanks a lot for the short visit, I hope I can blog more often, calling my mojo back!!!
.
‘til next time… tah-tah!!!
