Current state of mindI was reading a blog of an officemate and i realized how mundane and materialistic my blog is now. I was so inspired to write down things that i know matter and express it here.
For starters, i have a bite mark on my right arm from Roo. We were playing earlier and suddenly he was so gigil, he bit me. Well, as a monther i bit him back. hahaha. Sorry, again im starting to be the silly old me. Take note the bite i did on Roo's ear was not as painful as what he did on me. Ha! Justifying.
I love Queen (Freddie Mercury). I love my mom for exposing me with the world's beauty. Travelling, gourmet eating ( even on an Fear factor level eating), books, reading, music. I miss my mom. I never stop missing her even if i know she's just around, one text away.
Im currently enjoying my pregnancy state. I realized my clothes are getting too tight for me to wear but again i would try my best to stay away from maternity clothes. hahahaha As early as 4 months i can feel my baby kick and move in me. Im improving in terms of eating as i tend to munch and munch more. I need to coz I did not gain any weight for the past 4 months.
My family and friends are the best blessings i have and will cherish them for as long as i can breathe.

Shoe Obsessed?
If after giving birth my feet would grow an inch all the time? Of course i wouldnt be having more that 3 children but now that i only have one and another one on the way for sure my feet would grow again. I just cleaned my closet and gave away my fabulous shoes. Of course, i gave it to people i love but thats not the reason for buying it anyway.
BagaHolic?
When i cant find the decent bag that would fit my lifestyle. Sure my longchamps work but how about a sturdy leather studded, croc skin or Bottega kinda bag. I just wish most of my styles would be pocket friendly. I love bags but anything beyond 1800phps is too much.
A shades collector?
If i keep on forgetting that their in my bag or at least a pair is in my bag.
A watch collector?
I want to own a Philip Stein before i reach 40. hahahaha
I know i have things in my closet that i need to survive but it wont hurt to dream right?

Feeling Better
I went to the doctor and im so glad that he ruled out the dreaded A H1N1. The reason for being sick for two days is that my body was trying to fight the virus that i got, maybe from divisoria or from dusit or from not having sufficient sleep. So its my fault. The fact that im getting older means that the body needed more time to recuperate. Grabe, i thought i cant surpass this, my hard shell body was tried and tested by this virus.
Now, i can go back to reality. Kiss my son. Face my team again. Im back!!!
Thanks Hanzy for taking care of me and giving me hope and not wearing the face mask that i told you to wear.

Unlearned
There will be things in life that would make you look back and notice....Life can really be a bed of roses. However, you might lie down on the rose's thorns. Ouch!
Whatever that is, i still havent learned my lesson. Careless as ever. Now how can i undo everything.
In life it is really true that you will commit the same mistakes as long as you havent learned the lesson.

Im Officially 30 years old!!
Ok fine! I know age is just a number but stepping into the world of being 30 means so many things to me. First, i cant just act childish and still get away with it. I am self imposing strictness and being proper. Wait, should being 30 means stiff and old, i don't think so. Maybe its just a phase in my life that i should really act like a mother to my kid and not just his playmate. Im guilty of being a momentary mother, someone who at that moment wants to spend time with Roo and the next would retreat to find solace. I should serve my husband like a real wife and not just someone who "if i feel like it" would arrange his clothes to wear at work or accompany him to do the grocery.
Work wise, i would like to think im at par with my age group. I was trained to deal with situation that would entail firm professionalism.
Maybe i would just act cuckoo with my friends. Those who are on my same age, most likely would just shrug off some stupid remarks or add to it.
I dont know, maybe im just exaggerating but i FEEL there is a need to Change.
Again, it would be good to see myself as a better person than who i was when i was in my 20's. More achievement and accomplishment not just at work but at home as well.
Ill try my very best to spend more time in being a Mother and a Wife. There may come a time that the little one would grow up and its too late for me to bring back lost time. My husband would always understand but i want to let him feel that He is my priority as well.

HSBC FAMILY DAY
I was suppose to bring the whole family, from Rap to Roo but i dont have a car so it was me and Hanz who graced the occasion. We arrived around 4pm had our picture taken from the Fotoloco booth, will post that pix later once i get it scanned. I swear i dont know where to look in those booth. After getting my free hotdog and ice cream...shoots! i forgot to get my free cottoncandy which i was saving for last, Hanz and i completed the Bingo card where you can cross out all the activities you did. Hanz and i went to the site tour, we got our face painted, Hanz wall climed while i arm wrestled with a thin lady who has the strongest arm. Hanz won the memory game and i won the hit a can. I let Hanz wet the executive because i dont want to hinder my career development. hahaha. There were so many activites like Lou Hilario's magic trick but we decided to go home before the fireworks and Parokya ni Edgar.
We had dinner at Bahay Ligaya in White Plains. I was only there once and i promised myself ill bring my mom, Hanz and Jogie there. At least im now down to two people. We had Crispy Pata and Papaitan. Yum!
We were so tired we slept on the bus. We woke up and it was time to go down. It was fun and tiring but i really enjoyed every moment with my man.

2 Years
Long before i learned about The Secret, I always prayed for a man who is good in Math, someone who would put up with my crazy bratiness, who would love me unconditionally and is God fearing. After 21 years, my prayers were answered.
I met my boyfriend and after 6 years of constant PDA, movie watching, powerbooks bumming, (Phil) island hopping, camera whoring, foodtripping and very minimal arguing we decided to get married.
As i look back, things changed. We became braver to face the challenges life throws at us. We are smarter to make sound and viable decisions. We learn to sacrifice things without compromising our happiness and most of all, our faith became stronger as we put our marriage in God's hands.
We are blessed with a healthy, smart and handsome baby boy. Our parents and relatives who are generous and supportive. Friends that validates our individuality and abundance of time to help us juggle all the roles we need to play.
For my husband, lover, bestfriend, my all of the above, Happy 2nd Anniversary Hanzel.
Im looking forward for a lifetime of happiness, constant understanding, intimacy and like i promise, i will never stop telling you stories until i grow old in your loving arms.
You are my forever.

Reminiscing
Im getting emotional whilst listening to my playlist from Imeem and its playing Someday we'll be together by The Supremes. I was playing that while packing my stuff from the airport and promise myself not to look back coz tears will fall.
When i pass SLEX and see those big babies descending, touching the ground, i tend to think of my previous life. No regrets just happiness. For the opportunity given and the memories will never be forgotten. Ive never been challenged in life as what im experiencing right now but with the lessons ive learned from my mentor and friends i think that keeps me alive. Even if touching base is scarce the love guides me to do what is right, sometimes. hehehe

Hamming it with the Mcdo Team
I attended Phia's 1st bday at Mcdo. Roo wasnt there coz he was at home sleeping. So i made the posterity pictures for him. I got my batik dress from Davao, a stall in Aldevinco, for 150php.
Oh and yeah, i want to share Roo's porma too. This is what he wore in church.

Uncertainty
Trap in the black hole of life and practicality. No one to catch me but myself. Try to surround myself with familiarity and love but when everything is silent and im all alone, i go psychotic.
This always happen. I'll get out of this. When would that be i dont know. Im trying my best to be brave and strong. Maybe perseverance is the key.

Summer is.....
spending time in the beach under the coconut tree with a good book and listening to No Doubt.
Spending time with friends
attending parties and dressing up
eating out and catching up with lost time
and most especially spending time with the little ones who would soon grow up and have their own summers to spend.

Sopas for my soul
I realized that if you wish so hard with all your heart your wish would come true. I also realized that if you dont know what you want and you let God's will be done, you have to accept the answer whatever it may be.
Sometimes we want to listen to the things we want to hear that we tend to keep on finding the answers to our question. But if we open our hearts and mind and accept that the right moment may not be right now, then we reach that point of maturity and acceptance on things beyond our control.
Im so blessed to have whatever experience i have right now. Blessed in the family i have, the friends i keep and the work i maintain. I may not get everything i want but i have everything i need.
So without further ado, i tell you, Bring It On!!!! Im armed with the love and acceptance that could last a whole lifetime.

Backtrack
Do you know who they are? Its Jessica and Elizabeth Wakefield of Sweet Valley High. I so love the series. By grade 5 i started reading SV Twins then transcend to SV High. I love their Saga and the other stories they published. That time i thought Francine Pascal was the BEST author in the world. Then came Barbra Conklin's P.S. I Love You, what a tear jerker.
In high school i started reading my mom's books. Sydney Sheldon, Danielle Steel's Daddy and Family Album. My Ken Follett and Goodbye Mr Goodbar bonding with Gerith was a hit! I was so amaze because i have this agent who shares the same kind of books i read. When she made a list of books she has, i was like, i read this already, oh i have this. This makes me wonder. Somewhere in this big crazy world there is someone doing the same thing at the same moment.
I so love books. Collecting it, reading it. Some of my books are still waiting for me to be opened and explored. I dont care if you call me a bookworm....hahaha . If you would give me a present, i would love receiving books. Read, Read, Read.

Somebody is lost.....
and that somebody is me. As usual im doing my Multi-task juggling act once again and i feel that The Secret is starting to manifest. I really need to wish for something specific so that i could get what i really want.
The company is moving to Commonwealth and that is way too far for my commuting league. The ONLY reason why i want to find a new job is because of the DISTANCE/JOURNEY. The catch here is i would either commute for 2.5 hours per day to and fro and see my family and go home dead tired or rent in QC and be with my family on weekends. Is it worth the sacrifice?
Bring out my Keane and Mojofly song again. Hopefully i would have an answer before time runs out.
OTD: How come some guys got to watch Across the Universe already and im still waiting for it? Is it on DVD? I want to watch it on the big screen.
