Day 8 – A Song to Match My Mood

Day 7 - My Dream Wedding

This is my dream wedding.  Family and friends.  Good food.  Good music.  Love and laughter.  Cake and coffee.

And getting (diplomatically) kicked out of the venue because we've overstayed; our guests were having too much fun that nobody wanted to leave.  A first, according to our wedding coordinators. :)

Day 6: A photo of an animal you’d love to keep as a pet.

I want this FAT CAT.  I'm going to hug him to pieces.

December 20. So What's New?

Finally.  I have opened my blogger dashboard after a long hiatus.  I am OVERWHELMED by my blogging folder.  So many photos, so many stories and I have failed to upload 90% of its contents.

Nards and I have been so blessed to be busy with work.   I realize I miss the long hours I used to pull in UP (plus the long hours I was buried deep in dusty books in the library).   I am hoping we would have a more relaxed schedule after Christmas, and hopefully I can blog more.  And bake more.  I miss baking.

I hope you all won't mind if I just pick up where I left off on the 30 day challenge.  I still want to finish that!  I'll be posting Day 6 right after this.

Christmas is around the corner and I can't wait! Nards and I will get to spend two straight days with our families, attend mass at our favorite church, catch up with everyone and celebrate this wonderful holy season with people we love.

Incidentally my sister wants Danbo for Christmas.  I wonder how much is shipping from Amazon jp to here....

Paalam Bahay ng Bagong Bato

I am saying goodbye to my favorite radio station.   It is was my constant companion while growing up: all the way from sixth grade, when they first aired, when my Mom got me this sleek radio/walkman.

My siblings and I have a lot of fantastic bonding moments because of NU.

I gained friends because of NU:JD, Gli, Theta, Neil, Dev, Rain and the other guys from the z&j egroup.








Also worked with NU peeps, who are our co-volunteers in Rock Ed: Isabelle, Francis and Andie.

Goodbye NU.   I will miss you.

quarklovesyou:

it’s time to come clean, everyone. after 23 years, NU107 is finally closing shop. we’re sorry it took so long for us to confirm this. we were hoping for a miracle,i guess.
so just hear this and then we’ll go. you gave us more to live for, more than you’ll ever know. :)

P.S.  They're also the reason why I'm such a snob and have developed this aversion to bullcrap music that they call pop but is not actually pop.

Day 5: A Photo of Myself Two Years Ago

Day 4: Photograph of my Best Friend(s)

A cornucopia of lunacy

Day 3: The Perfect First Date

First Date - (awkwardness + pretending to be someone you're not) + good conversation + fun = Perfect First Date

Day 2

Something I ate: savory fried chicken with pancit canton, lumpiang shianghai and steamed rice.

*burp

P.S.  I still think the savory fried chicken at Ling Nam is the best. ;-)

Day 1

Today was a good day. Nards and I went to visit my parents and siblings. After lunch, my sister and I went shopping. Getting me to go shopping is close to impossible, as I avoid the mall at all cost. But it's time for me to get new clothes, so I'm thankful to my sister who dragged me to her favorite shop (Loalde), forced me to fit clothes and succeeded in making me purchase a dress and a top. And I got a new pair of Sanuks -- the flipflops made out of yoga mat. They're just heavenly on my feet.

In the evening, Nards and I went to my favorite coffee and cake shop on Tomas Morato and met with an online seller who was selling longchamps. I got two: one for my Mom and another for my Mother in Law for Christmas. :)
