New Year @ Galera

 

Sharks could never ruin our vacation.

Gabi ng Pizza

 

Kung makakapagreklamo lang ang tiyan ko, kanina pa nya isinigaw sa akin na “One enough, two is too much, three is gluttony!”

 

 

Nanlibre si Zeny at Raki sa Sbarro ng pasta & pizza @3:30pm. Pagbalik namin sa opisina, may email si Brando na may pa-libre syang Shaykey’s pizza @ 7:30pm. Pagkatapos ng isang oras, may dumating ulit na delivery galing sa Pizza Hut @8:30pm, libre naman ni Jason.

 

 

Nagtataka siguro ang ilan kung bakit sila nanlibre? Happy kasi sila. Sige, subukan nyong manlibre ng malungkot at masama ang loob… hindi nyo kayang gawin.

 

 

Ako, kahapon ako nanlibre ng Krisy Kreme. ^_^V

 

Today

 

Today, for some reasons, I have to cry and let all the sad feelings out. Here’s the end which brings the beginning of another, a natural thing.

 

Today, the day after yesterday, they have to leave and say goodbye. Left are memories I hope will stay a lifetime.

 

 

 

I So So Hate This Day

I was an hour late to my appointment to meet Yellow.

I was an hour late to work.

I was half an hour late to Krispy Kreme.

I’ll be staying at the office an hour more.

 

I had set a meeting with him. I was late, of course, and still had a chance to meet up Yellow, fortunately. Oh, Yellow is simple and motivating and exciting, by the way! I check him out fro head to toe and to my excitement to meet him, I almost forgot that I was heading to work. My defective watch added to my trouble, which suddenly stopped at 12:30pm.

 

I don’t know, maybe because it’s Friday, the traffic was quite an eyes-rolling -head-aching this afternoon that my travel time took me almost 3 hours of my time!

Buying donuts as pasalubong was on my list for today and because I was late to remind myself on time, it’s already 10:30pm. The store closes at 10:00pm.

 

I hate this day … or should I say, I hate myself today.

Quality Time

 

I hate the fact that January is almost half. Two weeks from now, Kuya and TwitiPiws will go back to Canada. It would be DaddyDemz and me again at home. Nakakalungkot isipin pala. I’ll surely miss the ‘fiesta everyday’ ambiance. The people I have never seen in decades have been coming to our place and visiting the balikbayans, and of course most of them are just asking for pasalubong. The people I thought never existed anymore in our barangay have showed up. Everything happened the last two weeks will be memories to remember, good ones at least. I just need to enjoy every moment!

 

It is quite sad that my work this period requires me to stay extra hours at the office to work with my current project, I have no choice. Good thing I still manage to cook lunch for them and have time to be with them until noon time before I go to work.

 

My body is at work but my mind is with them. Iniisip ko kung saan-saan nanaman sila nag pupunta nang hindi ako kasama. Para akong sinisilaban sa upuan ko sa office, gusto ko laging umuwi sa bahay at makisaya sa bakasyon nila. T_T

 

 

Mga Bago

 

Natanggap ko na ang bagong PSP. Mga dalawang lingo ko na din syang pinaglalaruan. Hindi ko pa masyadong na eexplore, ang mahalaga sa akin eh nag lo-load yung UMD. Kinuwento ko sa mga kaopisina ko tungkol dito. Ang dami nilang tanong: anong version? slim ba? Magkano ang bili mo? Ni isa wala akong masagot kundi kung anong kulay to. Excited silang dalhin ko para i-share nila yung mga games nila sa akin dahil sabi ko medyo nagsasawa na din ako sa nag iisang game na bundle ng unit, ang Rachet & Clank. Kinabukasan pinakita ko sa kanila. Hindi pwedeng i-share ang games nila kasi PSP3001 daw yung version ko. Sinong marunong mag-hack? T_T

 

Para sa isang “dial up user” na kagaya ko sa loob ng 7 taon, ang magka-DSL ay isang napakagandang surpresa. Hahahaha! Kinabitan daw kami kahapon ng hapon. Nagpuyat ako kagabi para ma try ang bagong DSL ko. Surpresa nanaman to ni kuya. Hehehe. Masayang masaya din ang laptop ko kasi nakatikim din sya ng windows update sa wakas.

 

 

Sorry

I apologize for the late/delayed replies to your emails on my Yahoo Mail account. YM is not accessible at my work and I do not have access to internet at home right now until Kuya has returned to Canada.

 

Or just send your private message here in Multiply.

 

Thank you.

The New Year and Me

 

Everything starts at one, and so, on the first month of this New Year… I welcome happy thoughts –- happy thoughts to begin with… ^_^

 

Our family reunion was a bit disappointing at first because BettyB and her family were not able to make it. Her British passport was not yet released by Queen Elizabeth. ‘Your Highness, you owe me an apology.’ Ooops, happy thoughts! Although they’re not coming, the balikbayan boxes are! Hehehe.

 

I can see my Kuya is very happy with his wife. Though they were not blessed with child yet, they were blessed with nieces who love them both so much. When he left five years ago, he’s a little bit skinny and now I think he gained muscles on his arms and chest. He’s more good looking right now. They arrived from Canada two days before the New Year’s Eve.

 

My long preparation for this gathering has already paid off with excitement and happiness to see that my family is complete again (almost). To patch up the disappointment, BettyB always makes phone calls to check the happenings so far. Sometimes she would tell us that she was making her call downstairs, away from Karla, because the little girl was very sad and sometimes crying when she knew that her mom was talking to us. Since day 1 when they decided to come here in the Philippines, Karla was one of the most excited among us about the reunion. Unfortunately, they couldn’t come.

 

On the night of 30^th, the year-end party of my SisDoll’s childhood barkada happened for the 5^th year. It was a tradition to them to gather their families to our house and party together. My brother sponsored the prizes for the games and the raffle. NInang Nina won the jackpot of P1000.

 

New Year’s Eve was the best. It was true for me on that particular moment that when you lose one, you gain more. Our first cousins and second cousins were there, sister-in-laws’ family was there, the family of my brother’s brother-in-law was there. We even had to order party tables and chairs for our guests. The special dance number from JellyPotpot and Jaja, the games and the raffles added to the fun! Our kasambahay, Ailyn won the jackpot price of 20 dollars, a cellphone and an all expense-paid trip to Galera. Hehehe. Others won P500’s, P100’s and P20’s.

 

We only bought few luisis, popup and baby rockets for the kids and the rest of us just watched the fire display on the sky. We had a nice view outside our gate because there were only few houses built in the subdivision so far. Kuya was embraced by his wife, SisDoll was with CoolJo and Jaja, and I was with JellyPotpot. We were all looking up the sky and shouting every time the sky was lighted by the dancing fires.

 

The finale was a very solemn prayer led by SisDoll.

 

Happy New Year everyone!
