Happy Anniversary!


Hiyee!!!! I'm so happy today! I know you all missed your know it's been a while. I am sure you are all wondering how come my subject line says "Happy Anniversary". Well....it's because today's date is June 5. It's my journal's first year anniversary! Aren't you happy? Me? Of course!
I think my last update was way back February-the love month. Well let me give you an update with what happened for the past few months. :D

Last March ~ well ummm....actually nothing happened. Boring month! yes boring!






April ~ If someone would ask me what I can say about this month in just one word? My answer would be "Toxic" yes...it has been a very busy month. First of all, we had our quarterly business review. And during our practice, I have to change my shift, I actually have to work in the morning shift! And I know that you know how I hate the morning shift. I'm a . But all was worth it. It all went well. Then, the next day we had our Achievement day! Boy, it was so much fun and exciting! Each team have their own themes and we have chosen Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and I get to wear Snow White's costume. Our team even won the Best Presentation.

May ~ For me, the month of May bring outs special memories...It is my most favorite month, well, except for December of course! Last May 5 was my dear mommy's birthday I want this day to be very special and I want her to be very happy even if thing were not the same anymore...I don't want her to feel sad. It's the first time we will celebrate her birthday without daddy. 3 weeks before her special day, I already talked to my sister friend Cha (well, I call her my sister friend because she's been like a sister to me and she is my very good friend...I actually don't use the term "best friend" it's not bec that I don't have one or something but I don't want to sound unfair to my other friends..for me all of my friends are the best and special). Well, I already made some arrangements with Cha and Ann Ganda, my initial plan is have a simple dinner at Ala Creme actually it's a surprise dinner. Now came the actual date and....we had a change of plan. I have invited my mom's very good friend, Zenny to join us but she can't come early because she was in Manila, so I just decided to do it at home. I informed Cha and Ann that it will be done at our house, sad but, Ann can no longer come since, she have a scheduled check up and their car wasn't fixed yet. While as for Cha, I know that she also cannot join us because her mom went to Malaysia at that time and she still have some errands to do. So around 4 pm, I asked my sister to pick me up from our house and I told my mom that I have to go to work early and I have important things to do and I will be back around 6 pm. And I didn't tell her that I was on leave. So what I did....I went Luk Foo (Her resto! and the food is great too!) I just ordered some food for take out...then head to the flower shop to buy her fav flower...which is roses! Btw, my mom loves ROSES. By 6 pm, I'm all done and ready, I went back to our shop and my mom and sis were already waiting for me. Then I told my mom that we have to buy a cake for her since she doesn't want to go and eat out and after that we can go home. When we came home, she went inside the house first and me...I have to sneak in the back door with all the food and flowers. And by the time she went outside her room...Surprise! and the rest...you already know. Oh, and her friend Zenny, she arrived around 8 in the evening. My mom was so happy...I have her pic holding her flowers... hahaha...I just love to look at the smile in her face.

And look at the Roses! Oh my! I love them so much!

Another special day to celebrate is my dear daddy's birthday ~ May 18 ~ If he's still with us, he already 56 years old. Oh...I miss him so much....all of us. I always daydream that he is alive . I miss chit chatting with him. I miss having our family dinner where everybody gets to share something with what happened throughout the day...sharing jokes, stories about everything..friends, work even the movies and shows that we've watched...we do talk about everything that's why every nig we were having our dinner for around a couple of hours....yes, that's loooonnnggg.....I miss that too! And whenever I come home from work then I would sleep right away, my dad would usually go to my room to kiss me goodbye before they go to the shop. I miss him...
On that special day, I bought some Roses before I went home. And I also dropped by Chowking to buy something for breakfast before heading home. Me and mommy had a nice breakfast before we all went to visit him. We all stayed at Holy Mary for half an hour before heading to the shop. In his special day, I prayed and thanked God for giving us a wonderful daddy. And I couldn't ask for more.....
Another special event was...my dear friend Jebe girl got married! I am so so happy and I am very thankful that I get to be with them to celebrate on their special day. Here are some of the pix we had.
~ Oh, and before I forget...to my "Wounded Healer", be sure to greet my journal or else...........hahaha...missed you guys! let me leave you with this....





Well, that's it for me! till next time!!!

Song Of The Week :D

"Pieces"

I tried to be perfect..But nothing was worth it..I don't believe it makes me real...I'd thought it'd be easy...But no on believes me...I meant all the things that I said.... If you believe it's in my soul...I'd say all the words that I know.... Just to see if it would show...That I'm trying to let you know....
That I'm better off on my own
This place is so empty...My thoughts are so tempting...I dont know how it got so bad...Sometimes its so crazy that nothing could save me...But its the only thing that I have... If you believe its in my soul...I'd say all the words that I know... Just to see if it would show....That I'm trying to let you know....
That I'm better off on my own (On my own!)
I tried to be perfect..It just wasn't worth it...Nothing could ever be so wrong...It's hard to believe me...It never gets easy...I guess I knew that all along... If you believe it's in my soul...I'd say all the words that I know...Just to see if it would show....That I'm trying to let you know....
That I'm better off on my own

Vacances d'été ~Relax & Unwind~

Sono Bello! I hope everyone was doin great...as for me its been a busy week! (well obviously I'm always busy that is why I don't have much time to update and let you know what I've been up to lately...) Eventhough I'm always occupied with something...I'm still having a great time. By the way, I just had my vacation last February 17 to 20. I was with my friends and we went to Boracay! :) It was fun! All fun in the sun...lol! I also have some pictures to share...for you to see the beauty of bora and of course...when you speak of beauty..who do you expect? Me and my gorgeous friends..hahahaha! No violent reactions please! This is my blog, I can say whatever I wanna say. Is that right? umm...Yes because Princess Collyn says so..or should I say Master Collyn?

But waiittt....before you get too exicted with our Bora Bora trip....I'll give you some quickie info on what transpired lst month.
~January ~ My friend Ann was super exicted because her dear Pong Pagong is back here in the country..he'll be having his one month vacation and he's coming with us on our long awaited Bora Bora. :) I was also excited....He gave me a pasalubong - talking and dancing Spongebob Squarepants! It was nice! I like it very much, I always play with it before I go to bed...I listen to his spatula song before I close my eyes! By the last week of the month, Ann decided to quit..she resigned effected January 31. She said she wants to take a rest. Sad but that's her decision, as long as she's happy I'm always here to support her. Besides we still get to see each other once in a while...she always visits me. :) And she still have to return all those SATC vcds she borrowed me. hahaha!



~The Love Month~ I almost got an heart attack when Ann called me up and told me that she's pregnant! At that time was confused on how to react...at first I didn't believe her because...it's Ann and with all of my friends she's the last person that I can imagine getting preggy..but anyway...I'm also happy for her! She gonna be a mommy soon....we hope its a girl...:) More of the good news.....she also got married February 17. Yes, that's right the day we went to Boracay, they got married before we left Pampanga. whooaaahhhh...a lot things happened in just a couple of months!

~Vacances d'été~ We had and awesome vacation...and 3 days are not enough. It was already evening when we arrived the island....it was soooo nice! We loved the food! all we did was eat...take pictures...stroll at the seashore....some sight seeing...then eat again...and the cycle goes on and on. The food was all good but expensive..we saw a lot of lobster...and speaking of lobster..I do have a friend who is very fond of lobsters..if you'll check her phone, almost all of the images there were lobsters...lol! hhaayyyyy.....bora reminds me of Spongebob..but don't get me wrong I didn't see any sponge or starfish but Mr. Eugene Crab's cousins--yes LoBsTeRs! And the sand...it's powdery white sand is the best! Oh..I want to go back there...but this time I want to be with my family, any way who knows..maybe when I get to go back to Cebu to visit my relatives we can try to visit bora, besides it's just near Aklan. :) Enjoy the pictures! By the way, those are just some of the pictures...the others..I can't show them to you. Miss you all!


Let me leave you this......

pahabol..before the love month is over...



“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.” – I CORINTHIANS 13:4-7 NIV
Lord,Because love is patient…Help me to be slow to judge, but quick to listen. Hesitant to criticize, but eager to encourage,remembering your endless patience with me.
Because love is kind… Help my words to be gentle and my actions to be thoughtful. Remind me to smile and to say “Please” and “Thank You” because those little things still mean so much.
Because love does not envy or boast, and it is not proud… Help me have a heart that is humble and sees the good in others. May I celebrate and appreciate all that I have and all that I am, as well as doing the same for those around me.
Because love is not rude or self-seeking… Help me to speak words that are easy on the ear and on the heart. When I’m tempted to get wrapped up in my own little world, remind me there’s a great big world out there full of needs and hurts.
Because love is not easily angered and keeps no record of wrongs… Help me to forgive others as you have forgiven me. When I want to hold onto a grudge, gently help me release it so I can reach out with a hand of love instead.
Because love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth…Help me stand up for what is right and good. May I defend the defenseless, and help the helpless. Show me how I can make a difference.
Because love always protects and always trusts… Help me to be a refuge for those around me. When the world outside is harsh and cold, may my heart be a place of acceptance and warmth.
Finally, because love always perseveres… Help my heart continually beat with love for You and others. Thank you for this day when we celebrate love, and for showing us what that word really means. Amen.

Miss you guys! muah!
soon..I will be posting pix from our Bora Bora vacation.....stay tuned!

Richest treasures


In this day there is real and lasting treasure. Somewhere in the circumstances, the people, the moments, the experiences of today there is a unique and valuable gem that can bring much richness to your life. If you set out with the goal of just getting through today, you'll likely pass that treasure by without even seeing it. If you spend your energy on anger, envy, worry or gloominess, your eyes will be blinded to the goodness and value that could otherwise be yours. For today is a day when you can make positive, creative and beautiful things happen, if you will. Today is a day when you can add much meaning and substance to your world, if you choose. Like precious diamonds that are hidden beneath the ground, the most valuable treasures of this day are not immediately evident. Yet the more love, creativity and effort you put into life on this day, the more real value you will uncover. The most valuable treasures won't be found in those things from which you attempt to take. The real treasures will be in those things to which you give the best of who you are. Choose now to do more than simply get through this day. Choose to discover and to live its richest treasures. -- Ralph Marston
