One spring day in Sea World Adventure Park.

I just had to brag this

Click on My Horse Sleeps On A Tree. 

You might be wondering why this directs you to my profile :-)  hehehe.  That’s not the one I meant to brag.  It’s the flip book at the bottom.  It’s a story written by my little boy Angelo.

Pasensya na, di ko kahibawo mo attach sa flip book diri sa blog aheheheh.  If someone out there can show me how, I’d really appreaciate it.

Gabriella Montes has her way of doing this song and it captured the hearts of many, including my kids and me.

Click "When There Was Me and You" to see the song interpreted my kids’ way.

Last Saturday, when everyone was waiting in held breath for the Pacquiao-Morales bout, the whole family went on a whole day adventure in what they call as "the happiest place on earth". Our day started at around 9am and ended at around midnight. 

Whew! what a great, fun day we had.

One man can make me feel secure

     when he is by my side

One man conveys a quiet strength

     his gentleness can’t hide

One man holds, for always,

     my respect, my deepest pride

Only one man I have known -

     you and you alone.

One man’s arms are warm enough

     to make a home for me

One man’s touch can stir my heart

     and set my longings free

One man will be my love,

     my life for all eternity

One man has made my dreams come true -

     you and only you

Thank you for loving me the way you do.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DADDY FERDZ, with all my love

A toast to the woman who has given so much for her children and grandchildren.  I don’t say this often but since it’s your special day, I wanna say "I love you Nay.  You’re the best Nanay in the whole world." Happy 63rd Birthday! From all of us.

Everyday I get an email with this subject "Jaze, God’s Message For You Today, Oct. 28, 2006 (or the date of the day)".  Occasionally, I get email messages from the man himself, Bo Sanchez. 

Why am I writing this?

I just want to share this special gift I get everyday from Kerygma Family and hope that someday we will see each other there.

Sick and resting and tired of packing, I took these online personality tests and take a look at my results:

What is your Icecream Flavour?

Your Icecream Flavour is…Chocolate!

You are the all time favorite, chocolate! Turning white kids black since the 1800s. Staining carpets, car seats, and bed sheets for centuries. One thing is for sure, you will never go out of style. You can’t go wrong with chocolate!

where are you on the highway of life?

Which internet subculture do I belong to?

You are a Trekkie! Oh no!

Which internet subculture do I belong to? You are a Trekkie! It’s a geek, Jim! You probably have a starfleet uniform and a tricorder. Bonus points if you speak klingon. One day you will walk down the aisle with your buttertroll trekkie partner, humming to the Yoyager theme.

What’s a trekkie, anyway?

These Quizzes and personality tests I took are non-scientific and for entertainment only.  It says so on the site :-)  Wa koy lingaw noh?

Yesterday, I was supposed to be in Lumpia House Countrymall at 8am for our usual BCBP Saturday breakfast fellowship which I’ve been missing since I started school - I have nutrition class on Saturdays 7am to 12. 

A transformed optimist, I believe I can make it to the venue on time, bisag 7:40am na gud - Liloan baya amo. hehehe - I was thinking of overspeeding, ngeks!!! wa may overspeeding diri sa Cebu, sky is the limit may driving speed diri - think Danao or Talisay jeepney drivers.  Anyway, my spirit sagged when I was like ‘crawling’ for 15 minutes sa Cansaga area.  If you don’t know where that is -  basta, duol duol pa na sa amo - Consolacion pa na - and the venue is a 30-45min to an hour normal drive away.  I breathe a sigh of relief when I passed the seemingly heavy traffic flow and thought to myself, ok ra, sagdi lang ma late gamay.

But I was in for a surprise after barely a kilometer from that delay.  For before me is a line of vehicles slowly if not moving at all.  I thought I was in a parking lot instead of the highway.  I was stuck for over an hour, close to two hours jud to - slowly moving forward but mostly staying still.  What could one do in a traffic like this? I sang along Madonna and Spandau Ballet on the radio.  I folded the parking tickets in the car’s trash bin - daghan na man diay kaayo. Text here, text there , looked at equally bored drivers and passengers, looked up the sky, stared at the solid yellow street line, wiped dashboards and anything there is to wipe, basta wipe wipe lang… I even read my Healthcare 1 notes which is still in the car bisag humana ang klase. Hahay! Traffic jud kaayo.  Then I thought of looking inside my bag and try to do some cleaning up there and guess what I found? - my digicam! hehehe. Sa ka walay lingaw, I got the cam and just took some shots on the scenes ahead of me 

behind me

Hahay, what more can a bored driver do? 

hehehe, as usual, take self picture!  Kamo bay ma traffic, lalim ba?

It’s Oct. 21, Saturday, 4am.  It’s the day after my final-ist exam and I should be sleeping soundly still but I guess my eyes has acquired a mind of its own and automatically wakes up, dragging my entire body into wakefulness. I usually wake up at 3am, today I woke up a bit later, 3:15 :-)  And after my morning prayers, I usually open my nursing books and cram.  Today is different, sembreak na gud!.

Wa jud koy lingaw uy.  I’m reading everyone’s blog - Corrine’s, Anna’s, Reyna’s, Madie’s and anyone who has one, even those I do not know.  So I checked my own and I had this "unpublished" blog I wrote last Oct. 12.  Wala lang jud koy lingaw and I can’t go back to sleep - stubborn eyes! 

October 12, 2006 

Yesterday was the most fun I had while waiting for my turn to perform my return demonstration on - - - - - you guessed it! - ENEMA.  I didn’t expected it to be as much fun as it was last night.  Retdems for me are added burdens to my already heavy school load - mura jud kog gapas-an ug usa ka sako nga semento uy!.  But last night was different. 

I was one of the last ones to perform thus I had the privilege to observe classmates before, during and after their retdems.  Initially, I had butterflies in my stomach but as every now and then one classmate would pass by us I just can’t help but had fun.   There were those who strutted their way to the rest room, there were those who make a go for it and ran as if they’re running a homerun and there were those who graciously just do ‘the catwalk’. All different types of walks going to the same room.  hehehe
