Happy 2009! :)

Hello 2009! This is the year that we've been waiting for :) i cant believe today is the last day of 2008. I can say that 2008 has been really good to me and my family but ofcourse except for my tito's death,i know he is happy up there with our dear Lord and watching us here.

As they say start the year right. Here are my some of my new resolutions for year 2009. :)

- Be more organized- I must admit that im not that organized when it comes to my things. hahaha
- Eat less junkie foods- im a junkie person kaya npapagalitan lagi ni arman eh. hahaha
- No more "maya na" habit- hahaha!kaya lagi napapagilitan ni mama eh. :)
- Less mood swings. right hunny? :P
- More focus on career after wedding :P been not so good with my work these past few months because of our wedding preps :)
- Always think Positive- that's the spirit! :)

2009 will be very busy for me as I will step into another chapter of my life to being a wife soon.

So there you are my last blog for year 2008 :) Happy New Year everyone! May you have more blessings to come this coming 2009! Have a great year ahead! :) Love u all! :) Thank God for all the blessings He's giving to us and our family. God Bless always. :)

Thanks pa! :)

Finally, I saw my dream necklace that i wanted to use on my wedding day.Been searching for "the one" for quite some time now. Then ayun nga finally i saw it na :) Actually, been eyeing on this since last last week pa . I'm just convincing myself maybe i can find another necklace with cheaper price.But then parang love lang yan eh,kasi kahit anong convince mo sa sarili pag mahal mo babalik balikan mo... It really caught my attention.In short, Love at first sight :) i'm always imagining myself wearing that necklace and how beautiful it would look on my wedding gown and ofcourse me even after our wedding :)

So now i just called up my mom telling her that i really wanted to buy that necklace later. and my decision is final na. But then I was so surprised when my mom told me that my papa wants to buy that necklace for me, he told my mama gift nya daw sakin yun this christmas. i was like awww. di nga ma?cant believe,deep down inside im super touched. My papa knows how much i love that necklace kc everytime na paguwi ko he will ask me, binili mo na? i would always says hindi pa, ang mahal eh baka next week nlng pagiisipan ko pa. I'm so happy that finally i will have it later. Thanks papa for the super nice christmas gift! I'm really surprised. I really really really love it. I can't wait for later and finally bring it home :) and oh cant wait to wear it na. :) Love you both so much! :*

Funny Quotes :)

Just sharing...

Break muna sa preps...maiba lang :)

1. "Lahat naman ng tao sumeseryoso pagtinamaan ng pagmamahal. Yun nga lang, hindi lahat matibay para sa temptasyon."

2. "Gamitin ang puso para alagaan ang taong malapit sayo. Gamitin ang utak para alagaan ang sarili mo."

3. "Wag mag madali sa pag-aasawa. Tatlo, lima, sampung taon sa hinaharap, mag-iiba pa ang pamantayan mo at maiisip mong di pala tamangpumili ng kapareha dahil lang sa kaboses niya si Debbie Gibson o kamukha nya si Mike Scofield o kahawig nya si Nick Carter or magaling
mag-breakdance. Totoong mas importante ang kalooban ng tao higit anuman.
Sapaglipas ng panahon, maging ang mga crush ng bayan sa eskwelahan e
nagmumukha ring pandesal. Maniwala ka."

4. "Hindi lungkot o takot ang mahirap sa pag-iisa kundi ang pagtanggap na sa bilyon-bilyong tao sa mundo, wala man lang nakipaglaban upang makasama ka."

5. "Kung nagmahal ka ng taong di dapat at nasaktan ka, wag mong sisihin ang puso mo.
Tumitibok lng yan para mag-supply ng dugo sa katawan mo. Ngayon, kung magaling ka sa
anatomy at ang sisisihin mo naman ay ang hypothalamus mo na kumokontrol ng emotions
mo, mali ka pa rin! Bakit? Utang na loob! Wag mong isisi sa body organs mo ang mga
sama ng loob mo sa buhay! Tandaan mo: magiging masaya ka lang kung matututo kang
tanggapin na hindi ang puso,utak, atay o bituka mo ang may kasalanan sa lahat ng nangyari sayo,
kundi IKAW mismo!"

6. "Mangarap ka at abutin mo. Wag mong sisihin ang sira mong pamilya, palpak
mong syota, pilay mong tuta, o mga lumilipad na ipis. Kung may pagkukulang
sa'yo mga magulang mo, pwde kang manisi at maging rebelde. Tumigil
ka sa pag-aaral, mag-asawa ka, mag-drugs ka, magpakulay ka ng buhok sa
kili-kili. Sa banding huli, ikaw din ang biktima. Rebeldeng walang napatunayan at bait sa
sarili."

6."Huwag mong bitawan ang bagay na hindi mo kayang makitang hawakan ng iba."

7. "Huwag mong hawakan kung alam mong bibitawan mo lang."

8. "Huwag na huwag ka hahawak kapag alam mong may hawak ka na."

9."Parang elevator lang yan eh, bakit mo pagsisiksikan ung sarili mo kung
walang pwesto para sayo. Eh meron naman hagdan, ayaw mo lang pansinin."

10. "Pag may mahal ka at ayaw sayo, hayaan mo. Malay mo sa mga susunod
na araw ayaw mo na din sa kanya, naunahan ka lang."

11."Hiwalayan na kung di ka na masaya. Walang gamot sa tanga kundi pagkukusa."

12. "Pag hindi ka mahal ng mahal mo wag ka magreklamo. Kasi may mga tao rin
na di mo mahal pero mahal ka. Kaya quits lang."

13."Bakit ba ayaw matulog ng mga bata sa tanghali? alam ba nilang pag natuto silang umibig e hindi na sila makakatulog kahit gusto nila?

14. "nalaman kong hindi final exam ang passing rate ng buhay. hindi ito
multiple choice, identification, true or false, enumeration or fill-in-the- blanks na sinasagutan
kundi essay na isinusulat araw-araw. Huhusgahan ito hindi base sa kung tama o mali
ang sagot, kundi base sa kung may kabuluhan ang mga isinulat o wala. Allowed ang
erasures."

15. "ayokong nasasanay sa mga bagay na pwede namang wala sa buhay ko "

16. "hinahanap mo nga ba ako o ang kawalan ko?"

17. "hindi dahil sa hindi mo naiintindihan ang isang bagay ay kasinungalingan na ito. at hindi lahat ng kaya mong intindihin ay katotohanan. "

18. "Kumain ka na ng siopao na may palamang pusa o maglakad sa bubog nang nakayapak, pero wag na wag kang susubok mag-drugs. Kung hindi mo kayang umiwas, humingi ka ng tulong sa mga magulang mo dahil alam nila kung saan ang mga murang supplier at hindi ka nila iisahan."

19."Mag-aral maigi. Kung titigil ka sa pag-aaral, manghihinayang ka pagtanda mo dahil hindi mo naranasan ang kakaibang ligayang dulot ng mga araw na walangpasok o suspendido ang klase o absent ang teacher. (Haaay, sarap!)."

Ngayon ngayon lang,Pauwi na kame ni mama ng biglang nhulog at ang engagement ring ko sa KCR Train, nung una nakuha ko pa binigay nung intsik and habang sinusout ko na bglang shet.. for the 2nd time nalaglag nnaman sa umaandar na train. Shet! ndi ko alam tlga ggwin ko. Ang daming tao sobra sa train. Wla na kme pake kung ano ssbhn ng mga tao. Mukhang kmeng sira. Pero buti nlng mababait yung mga intsk na nsa train yung iba tumulong sa pagtingn sa floor.
My mom kept blaming me kc last week pa lang sinasabihan na nya ako na tanggalin ko muna kc lumawag na nga sakin. At sabi nya lagot ka kay arman magagalit sayo un. Super kinakabahan nko kc ndi ko alam kung san namin hahanapin. Panic mode na ako kc 3 stations nlng baba na kme. I told my mom na iwan nlng ako hanggang dulo nlng ako para hanapin pero cympre ndi nya ako iniwan sa train, hanap pa din ng kme ng hanap. hanggang sa dumating na yung dulo ng station, we have no choice but to go back without my ring. arman kept calling me at ayaw pa nya maniwala nung una. Super nalungkot ako grbe bigay ni arman yun at super important yun sa akin at mahal na mahal ko yun, ang daming memories nun. at engagement ring namin yun.Then sabi ni arman papatunaw nlng daw nya yung kanya. pero sabi ni mama iba pa din cympre yung original.

Eto na pag dating ng bahay,pincheck ko agad yung yung mga dala dala namin.......Daran! we were surprise to see my engagement ring sa grocery bag na dala ni mama.ndi namin inexpect kc malayo yung plastic bag pero cguro tumalsik. I was like superrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! tnwagan ko agad c arman at natuwa na ulit ako hahaha sabi ko sayang kc nkta ko para bbili mo ulit ako. sabay tawa oo nga eh, naicp ko yun eh. haahahah.

Labor of Love :)

Featuring our Save the Date Card. ( STD )
One of our successful " Do It Yourself " project ( of cors love urself. hahaha )



After so many revisions, haha that is OC we can be :P Finally eto na, It's all in our hands :) We were the one who conceptualized it from down to details. I remember my brother " John " told me that " Ate dapat maging part ako ng wedding nyo ha, dapat ako mgddesign " I was like super touched sobra. And so we asked we asked him to draw caricature, he did it for only 15 mins, i was so amazed.hahaha. As well as Mark, he is my secret keeper about our wedding, he knows everything from major to small details :) I never thought that they would be this so into our wedding and very supportive. I'm just soo happy...

We're so glad for all the compliments and telling us how cute it is :) We really wanted to distribute STD Card for our Principal Sponsors, Entourage, Friends from Abroad for them to file their annual leaves and book their ticket. ahahaha! :) We started distributing it personally last Aug,that was 6 months before our wedding. and we've already sent out for those friends from abroad. And for people that we we'rent able to give them personally we just send them the through email, an E-Save the Date version. But still some friends are asking to send it via airmail.. hahaha will be sending it soon. :) Here it is :)
Hopefully,more projects to come :) I just cant wait for arman to visit here :P

Home Alone....

My parents are going to USA this end of oct for a short vacation. They have their plane ticket already. They will be celebrating Trick or Treat there,one of the happiest event in US.. Waahhh. I so envy them but so happy for them atleast they will have their sweet escape :) And enjoy their life while they are still young. :) I'm really happy and excited for them.

Actually before the plan was kasama nla ako but then since im getting married hahaha iwan nko. wawa ako. They will be there for 2 weeks lng. meaning ill be home alone during those days but ofcourse not totally home alone because our helper is still here.hehehe but still,it feels so different na wla cla . .. syet! I will miss them bigtime!

Actually when my parents told me that its confirmed about their vacation, I was like freaking. haha! they know na yoko magisa d2 sa hk. haha! But then I was surprised and happy at the same time, when my parents told me na " Sa oct mo nlng papuntahin c arman dito para may kasama ka " I was like nabawi lahat ng worries ko. hahaha. at cympre pumayag na agad ako. haha!

An update from my groom.5 months to go! :)

Since this is just once in a lifetime event in our lives,so this month i gave him a chance to do our update :)

" Today marks the fifth month count down until our big day. I feel very much excited but equally tensed and anxious.

Why anxious and tensed? Exactly one hundred and fifty two days, everything should be set and perfect. Though it’s good to feel that all our major suppliers are already booked and almost set, in terms of the small details we barely scratch the surface.

We need to make our imagination work and produce the best ideas we wanted for our wedding. But of course, I know we can do this. We just need a little bit more time working on these things, helping each other, and giving our hearts out to make it perfect.

Oh Yes, I’m so excited too! Because it’s almost here, the most awaited day of our lives. This would be the day when we open a new album in our lives. Everything will be different. It’s like starting from scratch. This is a new opportunity to start things. I’m excited for the new work, for the new environment, for the new lifestyle, and of course to be with my wife forever. "

I'm Back :(

Yesterday was my Birthday,I celebrated my bday on the plane with people I don't know. After a month in the phils, i'm back to my REAL WORLD. I just can't believe im back now in Hk and doing my office work again. But on the other side I'm excited to see my parents, i really super miss them a lot.I'm really happy to see them waiting for me at the airport.

My hunny boo gave me a bag as a bday gift and a musical greeting card with heartmelting letter inside it. He told me to read it on the plane, and it made me cry again once again.Actually i didnt expect him to give me a gift on my bday because I know he doesn't have time to buy coz we're always together and super busy with office work. He kept telling me sorry because of his simple gift, but I told him na wala skin yun,even the simpliest things from him can make me super happy. kht wlang gift ok lang bsta what is important is his UNDYING LOVE for me ( hehehe dats wat he wrote in his letter ).


I miss our "secured hugs" ( that's wat we call our most comfortable hugs ), our kulitan at tampuhan moments... I miss everything about him. It's really hard for us,kht na sabihin na ilang beses na nangyri samin to..mhrap pa din sobra. Thanks hun for always taking really good care of me. I'm so lucky to have u in my life and as a future husband. I love you so much and i miss u badly :'(

... Sana mag next year na...

( sabi nga din ni Queen. hehehe. ) I cant wait for my big day sobra.obvious ba? :) i can't explain how hapi i am. :) A lot of adjustments, *ahem,ahem*. hahaha! I should maintain it *crossed my fingers* at eto pa ang nakakatawa he gave me tape measure para imeasure ko everyday kung tumaba ako. hahaha!

Our pre-cana seminar and canonical interview.

Woke up around 3:30 am today Then left the house around 4:30am. We need to wake up that early because we are scheduled to have our pre cana seminar and canonical interview today and need to be there 7am in St. Francis Xavier Parish in Nasugbu Batangas. Required na dun kme magseminar kc dun ang main church ng Caleruega. When we passed by Tagaytay its really sooo foggy, as in ndi mo mkkta yung daan. It's 22 degrees. really love the weather there. Grbe super layo tlga, its more than 1hr pa from Tagaytay.Dulo ng Nasugbu Batangas. We got there around 6:45am.


We had our canonical interview around 8:30 am and we were interviewed by a Priest.
Priest: O, ur in the right age na naman para magpakasal, u should know what is right and wrong.
Priest: what made u decide na magpakasal sa simbahan?
Arman: Kasi mahal ko cya,caring, mabait cya, ginawa kme para sa isat isat and,para mablessed kme ni God.
Me: kc po alam ko na cya ang para skin, and gusto po naming ikasal sa harap ng Dyos and its included in the 7 sacred sacraments.
Priest:
Tama! (sabay sabi ng priest), oh wag ka kiligin jan. haha!

Then next was Our pre cana seminar was conducted by a Nun. She told us Cana is the placed where Jesus performed His miracle, where God turned the water into wine. In our case the miracle for us is Jesus brought us here to become husband and wife. Grbe we’ve learned a lot like Marriage is not just “Till death do us part” but instead “Till life after death “. LOVE is not just 4 letters but instead there’s a lot of meaning behind it. Life, O-symbolizes the ring because love doesn’t have ending, V is values- we should learn to appreciate/compliment the values of each other. E is for Eternal. Actually im planning to jot down everything kso naaliw ako kay mother tlga. Nkktuwa cya magkwento, dami kme natutunan sa isa’t isa. Super cool nun! :) The seminar was really worth it, u’ll really learn a lot about each other and realize a lot of things. If given the chance and time, we will attend again, we wanted naman Discovery weekend.


After seminar, we decided to eat @ Antonio’s Grill in Tagaytay. Their kare-kare is the really the best.Kinda pricey but its worth it.

Sarap kumain plus the foggy weather. Lamig lamig. We just can’t believe were getting married in Tagaytay in 6months from now..yehey!!!

Ok, done with the most important things, ndi kme ikakasal without these. :) Good job to us! Tomorrow I’ll have my 2nd fitting…yahoo!Shet im sooooo excited.

Thursday, August 21, 2008

6 months to go!

Oh my….Officially 6 months to go nlng.. Yaaaay! Ang lapit at ang bilis nlng..

Syet, I’m so excited na to see their gowns. Calling entou members, magpapayat na kayo. hahaha! :) Joke lang gurls, alam ko sexy na kayo :)

Discussing with them, made us more excited. I’ll be very busy for the remaining days that I’ll be here in mla,we should make the most out of it :) need to do a lot of stuffs, meeting with suppliers, finalize with suppliers,pre-nups, church requirements ( docs, seminars ), my 2nd fitting, food tasting in Splendido,visit tagaytay, etc....too many to mention. Hahaha! Shocks, im so excited na!!!! We’ll have our canonical interview and pre cana seminar next week in Nasugbu, define out of town trip and busy sked! There’s no early planning talaga in wedding preps, the earlier the better :)

We can't wait for our Big day and finally to become ONE. and be Mrs. Pagilagan. :D

Friday, July 25, 2008

2nd Time...

I know Life is not perfect. But I know He will not give me trials that I can't handle. I know this is happening because God wants me to be more strong person. And I wanna thank God for giving me wonderful Family, My hunny, friends and relatives for always being there when i needed help and always there to support me through Good times and and most especially Bad times. Salamat pinapatatag nyo ang loob ko sa mga panahon na ito.. I Love You All.

9th Day

Last sat was my Tito's 9th Day. Ang bilis ng pangyayari. Up to now, we still can't believe he's not with us anymore, that we can't talk to him, be with him in every occasion. Memories nlng tlga.. :( My cousin is always texting me whenever she feels sad and sharing kwentos about her dad. I remember the night nung libing ng tito ko she texted me " wla na yung superman ng buhay ko ." Super sad pag naiicp namin lahat ang nangyri.

Btw, i was surprised when i saw this note on our pc and made me cry once again...

" It is hard to accept and painful among family members the dying moment of my brother, but we have to. My brother, Fernando "Nando" for short serves our Dear Lord unconditionally while he is still alive and Infact, he is the one who established our catholic community "Lord of Pardon" here in Del Pilar St., Sn Andres Bukid, Manila. He is also an active member of various religious group such as "Couples for Christ", "Oasis of Love", "The Lord's Flock", and many others. He is now besides with our Dear Lord. "

This note is from my papa. I know and can feel how much he misses his brother. But I know, and I'm sure he is in Heaven right now with God. I'm sure he's also watching us and guiding us.
We miss you so much tito Nando... We love you sooo much :'(

COME WITH ME

The Lord saw you getting tired
And a cure was not to be,
So He put his arms aroud you
And whispered, "Come with me."

With tearful eyes, we watched you suffer
And saw you fade away,
Although we loved you dearly,
We could not make you stay.

A golden heart stopped beating,
A beautiful smile at rest,
God broke our hearts to prove
He only takes the best.

It's lonesome here without you
We miss you so each day,
Our lives aren't the same
Since you went away.

When days are sad and lonely,
And everything goes wrong,
We seem to hear you whisper,
"Cheer up and carry on."

Each time we see your picture,
You seem to smile and say,
"Don't cry, I'm in God's keeping,
We'll meet again someday."

He's free....

A really nice poem from the mass card that we got during my tito's wake.

Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free
I'm following the path God has chosen for me.
I took His hand when I heard him call;
I turned my back and left it all.

I could not stay another day,
To laugh, to love, to work or play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way;
I've now found peace at the end of day.

If my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joys.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss;
Oh yes, these things, I too will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow
Look for the sunshine of tomorrow.

My life's been full, I savored much;
Good friends, good times, a loved ones touch.
Perhaps my time seems all to brief;
Don't lengthen your pain with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and peace to thee,
God wanted me now-He set me free

After 6mos of battle from cancer, my tito is now with our Creator. My Tito Nando passed away last Jun 28,2008 exactly 4:20 am.He's only 55 yrs old. We were there watching him up to his last breath. ang hirap sobra....Good thing nakkuha kme ng last flight ng thurs,wait listed kme nun.It's so hard na mkta cya na ngssuffer ng ganun, na naghihingalo. Actually after making the final decision, the doctor only gave him max of 6-8 hrs to live,but my tito really wanted to fight, umabot cya ng 12hrs.He's really a fighter.We still kissed him kht wla na cya. Hayyyyyyyy............

Up to now we can't still believe that we will not see him anymore. Just yesterday Jul 02 2008, hinatid na namin cya sa huling beses, it's really hard to see the person na ndi mo na mkkta habang buhay. Hayy.. ang bilis ng buhay, dun mo malalaman yung worth ng minutes.

We will surely miss you Tito Nando. We love you so much. I know ure happy in heaven with God and watching us. We miss you a lot :( we love u soooooo much tito.

9 months to go! :)

Woowwieee! 9 mos to go! Actually, We've been not so active with preps this month, both busy with work. but still had some accomplishments.. yey!

Accomplishments:

- Cecilio did the gown sketch for my mom and also had measurements taken. She really love it and really impressed kay Cecilio and take note as well as my tita. This task was supposed to be on Jul pa, but then since we came home last week we decided na din to have an appointment with him last monday.. Arman's mom didnt make it kc super aga ng appoinment namin kc our flight will be in the afternoon. I'll just bring her on jul. :)

Side kwento: When we entered the shop of Cecil, ang nasabi lang nya bigla, "mom mo yan?"opo.."di nga?"opo. hehehe "ang bata ng mom mo, para lang kayo mgkapatid,pretty ever." hahaha. I can see in his face na ndi cya mkpaniwala. hahaha.

- Good thing there is a Bridal Fair scheduled at SMX Expo last weekend, ngpunta lang kme sandali and ikot ikot, Got some brochures sa mga kulang pa namin. Hopefully, we'll book it on Jul.

And my most awaiting event....hehehe

- Wooohoooo! I had my first fitting!!! Lining pa lang eh pang rampa na hehe. As in tela pa lang ang meron pero the best na tlga! Ang galing tlga ni Cecilio. Actually, this is really biglaan this was also supposed to be Jul pa. but then wen i called up cecil friday night. to set an appointment for our monday visit. Suddenly he said, magfirst fitting na tyo, i was really shocked, hahahaha! panic ever! He wanted me to have my first fitting para daw sa uwi ko ng jul eh may progress na..He also asked me to bring high heeled shoes na kaya kong ilakad sa wedding para msukat nya din yung length. Grbe i really cant belive it! Im getting married really really sooon.. :D Nung tinitignan ko yung mga shots ng tita ko, super saya tlga cant explain tlga the feeling. I cant belive im wearing now bridal gown... Can't wait for my next fitting.. im soooo excited and i really can feel it... Btw,Hindi ko sinama c arman para sa wedding day nya na mkkita yung gown ko.. surprise!!!Hehe kinkulit nga ako eh, sabi ko ndi pwede cya sumama sa mga fittings ko. hehehe...

Thats our update for this month.. Arman is coming here next week, we'll finalize once again. and we promised to each other we'll be back on the track. Till my next update! :)

Coming home....

Yeah, we're coming home this fri, but not with this kind of situation that i want. We need to come home to spend more time with my tito. My tito is suffering from Liver cancer,we never thought that this will happen to him, he's really a clean living person, a down to earth person and really a God's servant. He was diagnosed to have cancer last dec'07, He had 2 sessions of chemo, we thought he'll recover. He even attended the Healing Mass of father Suarez, and even us here attended when father suarez visited here in hk. We believed that he was healed because we had more time with him. The doctor gave him 3 to 6 mos to live. and this month is his 6th month.

Just last 2 days, my bro informed us that my tito had his MRI, and the doctor said he need to stop the chemo, because his body is not responding to his chemo sessions, and the sitiuation just got worst. The whole family doesn't know it yet, especially my lola and lola, They dont want to tell my lola at this moment because we dont know how she will take it. My lolo have alzheimer's disease so he doesn't know what is happening around him.

The last time I saw him was last Feb, ndi ako mkpaniwala sa hitsura nya and even arman. Sobrang payat and he's bald now.I used to remember him na msaya, with good body posture and with a smile on his face. Sobrang bilib ako sa tito ko, ung faith nya kay God sobra. He never questioned God about wats happening because he thinks that God has reasons why this is happening to him, his family and to us. and at this time only prayers can heal him.

We know that anytime from now God will take him away from us, but We are still hoping for the Miracle. We are not losing any hope. please help us to pray...

Something to share...very inspiring :)

I have something to share from a friend.Grabe, I was really inspired when i read this article, thats when i realized that for us bride to be Coffe is our " Marriage" and our cup is our " Wedding " It doesnt matter what kind of cup you'll going to use as long as the coffee is just soooo perfect for your taste. It's really nice to plan your wedding but we should not forget the true meaning of it. ex. " to have a long lasting marriage " We should not only prepare for the wedding but also the marriage, the most important one..

Read on and Enjoy..

Life Is the Coffee

A group of alumni, highly established in their careers, got
together to visit their old university professor.
The conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work
and life. Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the
kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and an
assortment of cups - porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal, some plain-
looking, some expensive, and some exquisite -- telling them to
help themselves to the coffee.

After all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor
said: "If you noticed, all the nice looking expensive cups were
taken up, Leaving behind the plain and cheap ones.
While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves,
that is the source of your problems and stress."

"Be assured that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee.
In most cases, it's just more expensive and in some cases even
hides what we drink.

What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you
consciously went for the best cups & and then began eyeing each
other's cups."

"Now consider this: Life is the coffee.
The jobs, houses, cars, things, money and position in society are
the cups.They are just used to hold and contain life.
The type of cup we have does not define nor change the quality of
life we live. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail
to enjoy the coffee God has provided us. God brews the coffee, not
the cups . . . enjoy your coffee.

Being happy doesn't mean everything's perfect...
It means you've decided to see beyond the imperfections
"

To go or not to go?

Urgh! I'm torn! Just this afternoon a friend of mine from here offered a free accomodation in boracay. I kept asking her if she's serious or wat..i just can't believe she's offering it again.Another place from last year. She said We'll be staying in the private place of a famous business man in the phils and its in the beachfront. They are coming to bora this May. what the heck? its only a month away. When she told me abt the plan, i was like sooo hapi and finally we're going to bora again. We both love beach, it feels so relaxing, a really perfect place to unwind..I told her that i have to consult this first with arman. Since we had an agreement that beach is not for us this year since were getting married early next year.
We really have to consider a alot of things esp our annual leaves, he's planning to have vacation here on jul so if we pursue the bora thing, he will not be able to make it on jul. As much as possible, we want to save our leaves because we still need to do alot of wedding preps,prenup,seminars, etc..
And the most important thing is iitim ako. i knows its exag, but then i dont want people to see me wearing my white gown at na negrita nmn ako, hahaha. Actually we made already a decision, he said he love to go but then there's a conflict between our time. But He promised me nxt year we will really go to the beach.

The white fine sand of bora, the banana boat, the jetski,the parasailing, the andoks ( hehe i love andoks in bora, its really yummy compare to mla )the sunset and his proposal in boracay. shet! How can i not love Boracay?



Shet we need to have final decision nxt week....again.. Let's see....

Embrace Imperfection

The Secret to a Lasting Marriage
Deb Graham

When I was a little girl, my mom liked to make breakfast food for dinner
every now and then. And I remember one night in particular when she had made
breakfast after a long, hard day at work.

On that evening so long ago, my mom placed a plate of eggs, sausage, and
extremely burned toast in front of my dad. I remember waiting to see if
anyone noticed! Yet all my dad did was reach for his toast, smile at my mom,
and ask me how my day was at school.

I don't remember what I told him that night, but I do remember watching him
smear butter and jelly on that toast and eat every bite! When I got up from
the table that evening, I remember hearing my mom apologize to my dad for
burning the toast. And I'll never forget what he said: "Baby, I love burned
toast."

Later that night, I went to kiss Daddy good night and I asked him if he
really liked his toast burned. He wrapped me in his arms and said, "Debbie,
your momma put in a hard day at work today and she's real tired. And
besides¬a little burnt toast never hurt anyone!"

In bed that night, I thought about that scene at dinner...and the kindness
my daddy showed my mom. To this day, it's a cherished memory from my
childhood that I'll never forget. And it's one that came to mind just
recently when Jack and I sat down to eat dinner.

I had arrived home late...as usual...and decided we would have breakfast
food for dinner. Some things never change, I suppose!

To my amazement, I found the ingredients I needed, and quickly began to cook
eggs, turkey sausage, and buttered toast. Thinking I had things under
control, I glanced through the mail for the day. It was only a few minutes
later that I remembered that I had forgotten to take the toast out of the
oven!

Now, had it been any other day -- and had we had more than two pieces of
bread in the entire house -- I would have started all over. But it had been
one of those days and I had just used up the last two pieces of bread. So
burnt toast it was!

As I set the plate down in front of Jack, I waited for a comment about the
toast. But all I got was a "Thank you!" I watched as he ate bite by bite,
all the time waiting for some comment about the toast. But instead, all Jack
said was, "Babe, this is great. Thanks for cooking tonight. I know you had a
hard day."

As I took a bite of my charred toast that night, I thought about my mom and
dad...how burnt toast hadn't been a deal-breaker for them. And I quietly
thanked God for giving me a marriage where burnt toast wasn't a deal-breaker
either!

You know, life is full of imperfect things...and imperfect people. I'm not
the best housekeeper or cook. And you might be surprised to find out that
Jack isn't the perfect husband! He likes to play his music too loud, he will
always find a way to avoid yard work, he watches far too many sports & play
the whole night with warcraft. Believe it or not, watching "Golf Academy" is
not my idea of a great night at home!

But somehow in the past 37 years Jack and I have learned to accept the
imperfections in each other. Over time, we have stopped trying to make each
other in our own mold and have learned to celebrate our differences. You
might say that we've learned to love each other for who we really are!

For example, I like to take my time, I'm a perfectionist, and I'm
even-tempered. I tend to work too much and sleep too little. Jack, on the
other hand, is disciplined, studious, an early riser, and is a marketer's
dream consumer. I count pennies and Jack could care less! Where he is
strong, I am weak, and vice versa.

And while you might say that Jack and I are opposites, we're also very much
alike. I can look at him and tell you what he's thinking. I can predict his
actions before he finalizes his plans. On the other hand, he knows whether
I'm troubled or not the moment I enter a room.

We share the same goals. We love the same things. And we are still best
friends. We've traveled through many valleys and enjoyed many mountaintops.
And yet, at the same time, Jack and I must work every minute of every day to
make this thing called "marriage" work!

What I've learned over the years is that learning to accept each other's
faults - and choosing to celebrate each other's differences - is the one of
the most important keys to creating a healthy, growing, and lasting marriage
relationship.

Awwww... this story really inspired me. Just want to quote this from arman.

" I know she will be my perfect wife. She cooks very good food! Loves kids, very thoughtful, and we're in love with each other. She knows when I'm mad, she knows what I want, I understand when she's out of the mood, and knows how to make her smile. Just a perfect balance between our moods. "

Awwwww...

Just Watch out for the burned toast baby! :P <3<3<3
