¡Está aquí!!! (It's Here!! It's Here!!) FINALLY

** Alleluia Chorus**

Hah hah!! I'm going maaaddd!!!

I got it March 27,2008.It was sent the day before and written the day before that.I am not expecting this so the news much sweeter.There I was not waiting for the mailman at all for I was sure it will come weeks more.I was thinking of what my reaction would be once I get it.Then I said to myself nahhhh!! Imposible namang dumating to kaagad!

Lo! pagbukas ko ng mailbox me nakita akong brown paper na nakasuksok sa Jewish newspaper,sabi ko mukahang paperbag ah.But I saw a glimpse of another brown envelope.Thinking that it could be for Alan like the last time I saw one and nearly had a heart attack thinking it could be for me and such devastation when it was'nt......Nasan nako? Pagkakita ko ng envelope hah!!My Name!!!! On a green paper.Nanginginig pa ang aking mga kamay sa pagbukas........The first thing I looked for was the schedule...Yes!!! Just a week after!

God is sooooooooo good talaga! I knew it! I knew He will give it to me.

Am Still Waiting...And Waiting...And Waiting...

It's been 4 weeks , 2 days and 7 hours. But who's counting? Surely not I who, after the moment got that life altering letter, checks the mailbox every hour of every day. (I've gotten the schedule of the mailman every day so I don't check it as much.The chink of that mail box is music to my ears. For the past 4 weeks, I live and breathe for that mail to come. I have pleaded,prayed and sweated over it but it seems fate does not heed to my pleas. I still am on a roller coaster of emotions.Depressed one moment and numb the next.Every morning offers a new promise.Every afternoon a moment of despair.Then the cycle continues.

Perhaps my mistake is to have googled it. I have found out that others have gotten their letters after mere 2-3 weeks.One got his a day after.Never mind that theirs were processed 2 years before.Things must have changed now.No wonder I have been waitng for a month.Silly me for getting my hopes up.My friend has warned me about this.Oh well, I hope she isn't right. I still have 3 weeks to prove she's wrong.

We got Freshcuts!

Hello! It's been a long time since I posted something here.Primarily because of laziness.

Well after long months of draught we have booked another wedding supplier.Freshcuts for our 200 pieces cupcake (in a cupcake tree of course), 20 pieces minicakes and a ceremonial cake.I asked my Mom to go to their office yesterday (Thursday) afternoon to give 2k DP(courtesy of my fiance he he he).

I still have to look for the perfect cupcake tree design though.

Goodbye Harry Potter :-(

I should have written this 3 weeks ago. I finished the last book ages ago.I spent the past month reading the HP series from book 1 to 7.We originally have 5 books(I never paid it any mind for the last 3 years).I sought my bookstores(all over Toronto) for used copies of the 6th and 7th book(its cheaper and friendlier to read).I went out at night just to buy the last one.I stayed every night until 1:30 in the morning reading. I read it when I eat.I read it when I pee for Pete's sake! I google for additional information and J.K.Rowling's interview.I fantasize about Harry and Ginny's future. I was freakin' obsessed! And then its over...

Nothing to look forward to at night.I was soo sad.

Oh well, just read them again and again....

WINTER STORM 12/16/07-Todo na to!!!!

Ok,so we just went out to have our pictures taken.(My Grandma,Aunt and I)

We got to have lots of fun despite of being in the center of a winter storm(how brave of us!Really this was just in our front yard!)



Within the compound




In all the years I've lived here(just for nearly 3 years),I''ve never experienced anything like this.I was'nt able to sleep well for fear of going to work the following morning.Thankfully Nitsa did'nt let me go to work.There was hardly any bus passing by.
Me braving the wind

Me and my Grandma


Despite all these, it has been one hell of fun! :-)

"Claudius The God"

Finally! After long agonizing months I finished this book last night.I don't know.This has'nt warmed up to me unlike the first one, I,Claudius. It accounts of Claudius' reign as an emperor and his relationship with his wife Messalina and his friend, Herod Agrippa.
I just found it gripping during the latter part of the story and his confrontation with his harlot of a wife. Makes me wonder, had Calpurnia not confront Claudius of Messalina's promiscuity, would history change? I think that this is the turning point of history and of the story.Because of what happened, Agippina came in to power, subsequently, of Nero(the infamous prosecuter of Christians).
Nah! Somebody else would have risen to power to give mayhem to all.
