Case No. 11: Magic (cont.)

Got to believe in magic
Tell me how two people
Find each other...

Case No. 11: Magic

Question: Have you ever felt the so called "magic" in love, (or the "spark")? or is there such a thing in the first place?

What book?

Any suggestions for a good book to read? I'm getting tired of the boob tube...

I miss...

I miss a lot of people nowadays...
I miss seeing my highschool friends...
I miss being with my college barkada...
I miss chatting with my Cads...
I miss... I miss... I miss them all...

But as always, I couldn't set a schedule for a little get together...
Well, honestly, this global financial crisis... is affecting me... geeez...

Oh well, need to save for an out of town again this June... with my officemates and my college barkada...
Ano daw? Global financial crisis? tas out of town? hahaha!!!

Check Cebu Pacific Air website... and you will be tempted if not convince to take your vacation in the coming months... the fares are super affordable... believe me!

I'm 29!

I started my day with my Papa. We attended Ash Wednesday Mass at 730 in the morning...

This year, I had a simple birthday lunch celebration with my family, 2 days ago...
My Mama asked me to cook, but of course, since I'm a confessed "tamad" magluto... I just handed her my money and begged that she do the cooking, as always...
With my requests... Alimasag and Chopsuey
My Papa, volunteered to cook Crispy Pata
and My Tita Ghie, ordered Pansit Palabok.

Who were my visitors?
My Ninang Ester came and my Tita Mercy...
My dear friend Zashi, wasn't able to wake up for the lunch date because she had her graveyard duty.
My cousin Maricris, suffered migraine that morning...

actually, I didn't invite anyone other than them...

My cellphone was busy for birthday text messages and calls... Wow! Thank you very much!!!

And before I forgot, my birthday date was Loydi... Gosh! Who will not fall for his charm... (yeah! I've contributed for the 18 million pesos, 1st showing date gross sales...)

And my day ended with a phonecall from my Loveko...

Reasons...

Are you a reason-able person?

Miles Away... again

So now, my Loveko is already in Dubai again...
And me, I'm back in my reality...

My single bed felt too big for me...
My morning is quiet...
My day is an ordinary workday...
And my evening is...

A Celebration of...!

It's lovemonth indeed and for this entry allow me to paint my blog red...

Last night me and my loveko celebrated a lot...
all in advance...

...Valentine's Day
... My birthday
and most especially our 1st year anniversary...

the day started right with morning text messages...
I hurried home right after my morning shift (around 3pm)... knowing my Loveko will soon be fetching me...
as I waited for a few minutes, my friend Weng came home and we started to chat... keeping my mind off the waiting...
It was already 5pm when me and Weng decided to take a nap... and I started to get annoyed...
Urgh!

Past 6pm when I wake up and still no, Loveko... (naku naman!) reading his text messages telling his whereabouts... Urgh!

Almost 7pm... he came... with all his smiles... Weng opened the door... I was sitting in the corner blankly staring at the tv.
He tried so hard to make my frowning face smile... but not a hint of success...
Then another knock on the door...
I opened the door and...
"Tao po, dito po ba nakatira si Ms. A_?"
"Ako yun"
"Special Delivery po, Mam"
"Thank you!"

reading the card...

Loveko,
Happy Anniversay!!!
Loveko

...it melt me...
...and his big sigh of relief...

his first bouquet of flowers for me...

A dinner date...

...and coffee after

...Flowers for you, on this lovely evening

Though they have no words they share my feelings

As we walk along the avenue

Pardon me, I just can't help staring at you

When I look into those sparkling eyes

I float in the air and wander in paradise

You give my heart a source of inspiration

Your beauty is beyond imagination

You are the one

The only one that I desire

When we touch

When we're one you light the fire

The seasons we share

Hand in hand, there seems to be no time

Each day with you becomes a Valentine

Time must go on and so must we

Moments slip away but not the memories

One day as we look back with all this treasure

Candlelight that shines beyond forever...

Scuba Diving Thrilled Me!

Another adventure to try...
Another experience to feel...
Another thrilling challenge to take...



At Coron Divers, Coron Palawan
January 20, 2009







It's 9am in the morning, and the activity for the day... Discovering Scuba Diving

I always dream of trying the sport... but in all my honesty, I'm anxious when I get under water... True, I love going to beaches but getting under water for longer time... chickens me out...

So what made me decide to try it at last?
the people I'm with... Loveko and of course, the dive master, Mr. Arni.



Listening attentively... while holding my prayers...














and getting ready...

It's Okay! We're ready!














and so... it happened...

I wanted to backed out...

I suffered hyperventillation...

and so, I have to remove the gears and just put the vest and tried to comfort myself... and do snorkling instead...

with my Loveko beside, encouraging me! (thanks loveko!)





and after about 30 mins of just going to and fro around the boat on my snorkling gear...

I finally get the courage to take the plunge...

and not just for picture purposes... but for the wonderful underwater experience I've ever tried!

a tap on my shoulders! I did it! Wohooo!!!!
