On My UltraElectroMagneticJam Day

Kudos to Jam 88.3 for a great album! Well done! Loved almost all of the Eraserheads classics on this helluva revival CD. Indeed a tribute to the great ones, whose songs once served as our background music every summer when my cousins and I would play mahjong the minute the clock struck 1. Those times were awesome...

This morning when I woke up, I suddenly had the chills and this awful pain in my stomach. It was unexplainable, until it dawned on me that my late grandma (a.k.a. Mang) paid me a visit. After Mama 'spoke' to her, while stroking my back, I cried non-stop. Then after a few minutes, I was back to normal. The pain was gone. It was Mang's birthday last 16 January and I wasn't able to drop by the cemetery. I am so guilty because lately I haven't been praying for her as often as I used to. CS was kind enough to accompany me earlier. I brought white flowers for her and Lopang (my grandpa). I miss her so much and I sure wish she could be with us now to enjoy all these 'successes' I am reaping. I'll take her to trips with us, for sure! But I know that she is happy, wherever she is now. I love you, Mang. And thank you for still looking after me.

We are cooking up two mall tours aside from the already sure projects with have with MAGGI, PBA and PLDT. I feel so damn good! The stress is crazy, but expected. Preparation time is always the most hectic. Am looking forward to another smashing year for the agency and I hope I can help more people with these projects. Life is good...

On Rewarding Myself


I will be back here in no time and I'm super duper excited!!! I'm treating Cui and Dexter to Singapore and we leave on the 28th. Last year was a tremendous year for the agency and I am proud to say the rewards have been overflowing. I can't wait for them to see this place! And the Night Safari... and taste all the yummy food there.

Cuz, see you super soon!!!

On Starting The Year Right


Majestic Boracay... Certainly my favorite piece of paradise. Cuz and I were there last January 3 to once again relax for 3 whole days before heading back to the harsh reality of work and deadlines. I took this picture using my N70 and the sepia setting added much drama to this already beautiful scene.

The weather was just right. It drizzled at night but that didn't dampen our spirits. We had an awesome time and to pay tribute to that wonderful vacation, I'd like to turn back time a bit and reminisce on the things I experienced there...

1. I will never forget that moment when Cuz and I were walking along this new strip along "D Mall" and by the time we got to the end of the road, I was the ONLY person wearing a bikini! Everyone was already in regular clothes and I felt like Paris Hilton in a room full of nuns. People gave me 'the stare'. So that's how a goldfish feels like!

2. I will never forget the sumptuous dinner we had on our last night there. Mouth watering crabs and grilled fish. It was to die for! Every time I remember that meal, I could feel saliva starting to well up inside my mouth. It was that f*%&$# good!!!

3. I will never forget my weird sunburn, especially since I still have it. Didn't take off my super short shorts the first time we went sun bathing. And in just a few minutes, the mark registered already. Darn! Then come Day 2, I dropped the shorts and just wore my skimpy string bikini. That left a mark too. You can now say I am tri-colored. Hahaha!

There are a hundred and one reasons why I will never forget my latest trip to Bora. But what was most special was the fact that I once again got to spend time with Cuzzy Wuzzy. We intend on going to Bohol next year and I'm sure that'll be a blast too.

Thanks for the wacky time there, Cuz! See you on the 28th!!!
