Last post for the year

… because again, I didn’t have enough writing will with me now.

I just finished taking care of the turning-into-a-bratty little girl’s needs: bathe and feed. My hormones are probably too high these days, I’m starting to be annoying and the little girl almost always irritated me for being so makulit. Anyway, as usual, I forgot to blog since I took a leave from work for the holidays. I opened my multiply site to check our little business and stumbled on a a few entries just like this. So let me do my share here…

It’s been a great year for me, Mon, Ayex and the whole family. We had our fair share of ups and downs: mommying becomes harder every day, business transaction with friends does not always end up well, new jobs in the same company, new business lines, baby to a toddler, having more than enough, sharing blessings, etc. I cannot think much as I write this but I know inside, the going out year went really well for us. I survived. We survived. With His grace and the love and support from family, who will not right?

As much as I’d like to create a longer post, to pay tribute to 2008, this lovely toddler might wake up from her sleep in my lap sooner than expected. So while text messages are clogging all networks available around the world, we wish all of you out there a safe New Year! I can already hear the thudding sound of fireworks outside our home

Power of 6 mini reunion

And so the much awaited reunion materialized after some two weeks of planning, texting and calling. Thanks to Gretz who found a way to be there even if you have work that day. To Aimee and Dhang who drove all the way from Boni and Pasay. To Aika who stayed late even if she so wanted to go home and see Shanelle. Grasya, hopefully sa October 18 uli, wag kang mawawala ha!

Our venue was a Veneto Pizzaria Ristorante in BF Homes Paranaque (although I think that part is still Las Piñas). This is in consideration of me (who cannot leave rather does not want to leave the house without Ayex) and of course, our preggy girlfriend, Aika.

Poor me waited for these girls for an hour! Buti pa si Ayex, busog talaga! Natunaw na nga ung mudslide nia eh kasi tulog xa ng tulog! Then finally, Aimee and Dhang who came all the way from Pasay arrived! I called Aika and Gretel (who we call the marathon girls) again for the nth time (I’m just exaggerating) to ask where they are. Sila ay nawawala pa rin sa loob ng BF! Apparently, they left turned when they were suppose to right turn. Hahahaha!

While waiting for them, the three of us, Aimee, Dhang and me took the liberty of ordering our dinner. We ordered carbonara with chicken, meatballs parmigiana, family platter, and medium size special pizza.

Finally the marathon girls found us! Hoorayyyy! By this time, the food we ordered were all ready! As we eat our hearty dinner, we listened to the much awaited chismis from Gretel and Aimee! Super installment ang kwento ni Gretz, nakaka-antok at nakakabitin! Biro lang Gretz. Aimee on the other hand, mejo seryosong usapan. Si Ayex lang ang distraction namin eh!

It’s really nice seeing these girls again after a long time! Too bad wala si Grasya! Very timely din dahil akala nating lahat October 11 pa ang expected date of delivery ni Aika pero kagabi lumabas na si Claine Erich! Tama ba spelling ko Aika? Sayang I had to bring Ayex home already, hindi na ako nakasama sa Starbucks sa Caltex! So was there a huge discount?

I remember I said something to myself after watching Sex and the City the movie. I said that I wish me and my girlfriends can be like Carrie, Miranda, Samantha and Charlotte. What ever happens, where ever we go, whoever we are already, we’d always re-unite and find time to see and catch up with each other every now and then. I guess this is a good start. Maybe we can do this once every month. What do you think girls?

Thanks to Aimee and Dhang for the gorgeous photos.

Killing office boredom

Not quite, but it helps!

A while ago, I decided to open my friendster account and browsed my long-lost friends’ pages. As usual, I went down memory lane again! Visiting my friendster account made me look into my hard drive for old pictures and guess what I found?

The early days of our love-life with our dear friends!

PO6: College days!
