Sorry, late magpost.

 

Anyway, belated Happy Hearts’ Day to all of you. How’s your valentines?

 

As usual, I’ll share mine. Hihi.

 

I went to work last February 13, so pagod at antok ako pag uwi. Si Tum (BF), pupunta DAW sa kapatid niya, excuse niya lang yun para di pumunta agad samin, di ko naisip na may surprise siya sakin. Then before 12 midnight, kumakatok kapatid ko sa room, sabi nandiyan si kuya Tum, e kasi yung bunso namin, pag may surprises, kinikilig siya, kulang na lang sabihin na niya sakin sa sobrang excited. Di ko pa nahalata nun kasi naalimpungatan ako.

 

Pag baba ko, may hawak siyang cake at flowers, wala na, kinilig na ko, nandun pa sila mama, papa at isang bisita, kaya super na-touch ako. Sabi niya hindi daw ganun yung plano niya, dapat daw aakyat siya sa room, magsisindi ng candles, ilalatag yung cake, flowers at yung HAPPY VALENTINES DAY na sinulat niya tapos gigisingin ako. E kaso gising pa sila mama, kaya pinagising na lang niya ko. Kahit naman anong mangyari, sweet pa din e. Di ba? Yun lang naman, eto naman pics.

 

Ayan.

Cake

Flowers

Panget,bagong gising. Ayan yung bunso namin, ang kulit.

Sweet-sweetan ang drama.

Eto naman kinabukasan (Feb 15), binigay niya.

 

 

LOVE LETTER FROM UR BB

Dear Owner,

I’m so lucky I’m your BlackBerry!

You hold me with both hands as gently as you could be.

You ensure that I am always with you.

If I fall, you are afraid of my injury.

I always have your undivided attention, you get upset if others disturb our time together.

You can never forget me in a taxi & you won’t let me go unlike my old friends Nokia, Sony and Samsung that you would proudly just hand over.

When you eat, I’m beside you.

When you are on the toilet seat, I’m with you.

When you’re sleeping, my head is by your pillow.

When I scream, you rush and pick me like an egg.

When I feel low, you make every effort to recharge my battery.

When I am hungry, you fill me with airtime.

You buy me all sorts of clothes to cover my precious skin.

And if I make you feel like a cowboy you strap me to your waist or jeans.

Every month you ensure that you set aside the money, to buy me bundles (of love).

You upgraded me from my friends Nokia, Sony and Samsung to a Curve, Bold & Torch.

You rush home from work and spend quality time with me; not really bothered to make a conversation with those at home.

You can sit up with me for hours and smile at me, yet I have no humanly emotions; sometimes I make you laugh that people think you are mad.

I watch your wife/hubby or your bf/gf who envies our time together.

But dearie…
I appeal to you.
Your life is wasted because of me.
Take some time, leave me aside and Sort out issues that are important to you
because I may love you as much as you do love me but I’m just a BlackBerry,
nothing more!.

Kind Pings,
Your BlackBerry

On January 24, we’ll be deployed in our own branches, so paghihiwa-hiwalayin kami after namin magbonding. Ako sa E. Rodriguez Branch, bisitahin niyo ko, tapat ng katabi ng St. Luke’s.

Excited na ko e, feeling ko equipped na ko at ready na sumabak though di pa tapos yung Branch Lab. Hihi. 6 na pasok na lang, then rest day, walang pasok ng Chinese New Year tapos branch na. Goooo! See yah, puntahan niyo ko!!!

So first week of January was New Hires Orientation in Security Bank.

 

January 2: First day, I woke up at 5AM, I was so excited then. I cleaned our sala, cooked my breakfast and lunch, took a bath, prepare my things to bring then make up. May sakit si Tum non kaya kala ko mag aabsent ako. Good thing he insisted. Hindi na ko nagpahatid kasi sayang sa pamasahe, umalis ako ng 6:45AM, kala ko traffic e. Ang bilis ng byahe, nakarating ako sa Makati ng 7:20AM. I think I was the second person who arrived in SBC. And then we waited until 8AM to go on the 9th floor. So, 8am came, we went to our training room. First speaker talked about Security Bank as an organization. Then we also introduced ourselves which I hate the most. In the middle of the discussion, foods were coming, we’re so happy because for 1 week, we have free sandwich in the morning and pancit/pasta/palabok in the afternoon. Nung uwian na, grabe nakakatakot kasi sobrang daming tao sa loading area. Palapit palang yung bus, siksikan na. So pagsakay ko, nakatayo ako. Nakakalungkot lang kasi walang gentlemen pero I understand kasi pare-pareho kaming pagod. So yun.

 

January 3-5: I woke up at 5:30 na, sabi ko agad sa sarili ko, “Ano ba yan papasok na naman.” HAHA. First day lang talaga ko lagi excited. Same lang ng ginagawa sa umaga, this time, nakaalis ako 7AM na, grabe biglang dumami tao sa bus, tapos traffic na, buti na lang di ako na late. Discussion ulit, break, discussion, lunch, discussion, merienda, discussion. Tapos pinapauwi kami mga 7PM na, grabe first week palang OT na agad. Haaay.

 

January 6: Last day, dito ko nafeel mga kasama ko, picture taking kaming apat, asaran, kwentuhan at planuhan ng outing namin or gagawin sa first sweldo. So our final plan is to go to EK on February 4, first saturday after sweldo. Pareho pa din ng nangyari, pero eto, mas maaga kami pinauwi kasi maaga natapos yung discussion. Thumbs up!

 

Ngayon, di ko alam kung kelan ako makakabalik ulit. Baka sa susunod na rest day na. Nakakamiss pero masaya naman buhay may hanapbuhay. Ayun.

Happy New Year everyone!

 

I’m super inactive because of my work.

So, to day is my first rest day, and just today, I was able to feel the presence of my sister’s laptop. Good thing she’s not here. Hihi.

 

Anyway, how’s your new year?

Mine was just fine, we celebrated new year in Crowne Plaza in Ortigas. We had dinuguan, bopis, baked mac, pizza, chicken, graham cake, and ham as our handa or medya noche. Tama ba?

 

When 12AM came, we just watched the fireworks through the window. We were like fishes in the aquarium. HAHA. But it was fun though, because we all know that at the end of the putukan, we’re all safe together.

 

We also had picture taking before and after the putukan, I didn’t upload it on my Facebook account because I only have few. Let me just share some of our pics.

 

Before going to the grocery.

After grocery

Grocery receipt worth 30K. (O.O)

Family picture.

So this is my favorite. When we girls, applying makeup before 12. I love it.

I hope you all enjoyed new year! What’s your new year’s resolution? Sakin diet ulit. Hahaha. Every year yon.

 

Seventeen year-old Kim is the pride and joy of her father Bryan Mills. Bryan is a retired agent who left the Central Intelligence Agency to be near Kim in California. Kim lives with her mother Lenore and her wealthy stepfather Stuart. Kim manages to convince her reluctant father to allow her to travel to Paris with her friend Amanda. When the girls arrive in Paris they share a cab with a stranger named Peter, and Amanda lets it slip that they are alone in Paris. Using this information an Albanian gang of human traffickers kidnaps the girls. Kim barely has time to call her father and give him information. Her father gets to speak briefly to one of the kidnappers and he promises to kill the kidnappers if they do not let his daughter go free. The kidnapper wishes him “good luck,” so Bryan Mills travels to Paris to search for his daughter and her friend.

SOURCE

 

So, after how few years, I finally watched this movie, TAKEN. That’s the storyline from the source. I saw some reviews about this movie, I understand that some things were impossible in movies compare to real life. But for me, I really liked the movie. In fact, it’s now one of my favorites.

 

As I watched it, my heart was touched, as usual. HAHA. Imagine the effort of a father just to find his daughter, ALONE! Yeah, it was somehow impossible to kill people in their headquarters, but he did it on the movie, so, deep inside me, I’m amazed, yet if you’ll think the opposite side of it, I can say “You did it because the director told the enemies to die as you attack them. HAHA. ” MEAN! Anyway, I love the way he taught his daughter on what to do, like, “Go to the next bedroom… Go under the bed… When they get you, tell me their height, tattoo, scars, blah blah blah.” I can’t remember the exact words anymore. And I also love the quote, “ I don’t know who you are. I don’t know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don’t have money. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my daughter go now, that’ll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don’t, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you.” Bryan told to the kidnapper, then the kidnapper replied, “Good luck!” It was so fatherly. Oh by the way, I don’t like Kim’s reaction after what happened, I believe, for other people, they’ll be traumatized or something but for her, it’s like nothing happened. She just kept on saying I love you Dad, but the way she moved, just like ordinary days. *sigh* I just hate it when my expectations didn’t happened, sometimes!

 

I think it’s best to watch when Father’s Day. I don’t want to be kidnapped but if I have a father like him (Bryan Mills), I’ll live with him, I know I’ll be safe. Watch this movie and you’ll like it, tell me what’s your reactions or reviews on this movie. I hope you don’t have a lot of violent reactions with it!

 

Thanks for reading,

Family picture!

I can say that, our Christmas this year was totally different from last year. Last year, we had games, we had dance contest, and celebrated Christmas with mommy Lucing. This year, we celebrated Christmas with her urn and picture. We didn’t play games, we didn’t have any programs at all.

 

At exactly 12midnight, we’re just talking to each other ’til my cousin Kyla said MERRY CHRISTMAS!!  We greeted and kissed each other, gave gifts, open gifts (of course!), picture taking, then dead air. HAHA. Ewan ko ba bakit ang tahimik namin ngayong pasko. Siguro, iba lang talaga ang pasko kapag wala si mommy.
Anyway, here are the gifts I received:

My first ever BB Cream. My love gave this to me. Oha. Kalalaking tao, binilhan ako ng BB cream. Aminin mo, girl ka no? Joke lang.

 

Panty from ate Tuti. Thank you, Bench!

Bag from my younger sister, Cheng.

Headband from my cousin-in-law, ate Jaymee.

Cellphone pouch from my cousin, ate GieJan.

Body Shop from my cousin-in-law, ate Lea.

ELF makeup; Eye shadow, blush on and lip gloss from my sister-in-law, ate Marj and my kuya AJ.

Eye shadow and eye liner from kuya Qua.

And last, but definitely not the least, mascara, couple umbrella (payong for two, shape niya is pa-rectangle na parang oblong, cute!), Victoria’s Secret lotion and $100 from my cousin, ate Pchi.

That’s it! After gift giving, we went home. Because we finished at 2AM, kids were all tired and sleepy. At home, we opened our family exchange gifts, Shine, my youngest sister was so happy. Syempre dami ba namang gifts e. Then, at 3:30AM, we all sleep.

Questions:

1. How’s your Christmas?

2. Where did you celebrated Christmas?

3. What were the gifts you received?

Last December 18, Ella, my future sister-in-law, celebrated her birthday. It was simple yet special. It was celebrated in their house but you can see the efforts. The lights, the foods, the band and even the invitation, they just made it.

Here’s the balloon

Foods!

Cake

Father singing for her only daughter

We arrived at 4PM, while waiting for the program and FOODS, we took pictures of ourselves first, of course.

Get to know my future family and say Hi to guests. And finally, at 5 or 6PM, the debutante’s mother told us to eat first then program will follow. So we ate. Rice, Caldereta, Lechong baboy, I can’t remember the foods anymore. Haha. But the punch was sooooo refreshing and tasty! After eating, opening prayer held by my love, opening remarks by the mother of the debutante, message of the father, and so on. As the mother spoke, my heart was touched, because the letters of Ella since nursery was still kept. Ella read her letters for her mother, we all laughed because imagine a 5-year-old child, giving letters to her parents, I was teary eyed then! After that, the 18 roses. First dance was her father, next was her two brothers then followed by her classmates and friends.

 

After the 18 roses, wine toast by few guests, not including me, I don’t like the taste of the wine. She then blew the candles of her cake.

 

Next, 18 candles! The candles were given to 18 of her friends and classmates, after the 18 people, gosh! Relatives and family were next. Third to the last was my love, second to the last was her other brother and I’m the last who gave her birthday message.
Here’s my message:

Mag aaral kang mabuti at gaya nga ng sabi nila, wag ka muna mag boyfriend. Sana hanggang sa 30th birthday mo, ako pa din kasama mo.

 

Hihi. Short because I’m soooo nervous that time. At least I made it! I’m proud of myself.

After I left my message, party party for the people. Her brother had their own group, her father’s group and me, Shine and my love’s group. Her father’s friends were all drunk, they performed and it was funny! Later, one of her father’s friend slept in the sala, then all of a sudden, he was like swimming, then he stood up and asked us where he is. Haha. It was a great experience watching drunk people do their actions.

Shine and I were left in their house, so at 12AM maybe, or 1AM, we slept. ‘Twas a loooooong, special and unforgettable night.

Hey! Too bad because I don’t know what to say. I don’t know what to share to you. And aside from that, too bad because my laptop is not working. So… Yeah, I’m not comfortable using my sister or mother’s laptop for long hours. I just can’t think too much.
