books! books! books!

vacation! i love vacations! whew, a few more weeks and i'll have a few months without schoolwork! woohoohoo!!! yipeeeeee!!!! long way to go though, still have a lot of papers to do.
last wednesday i dropped by national bookstore to check out some books. whew! would you believe i was able to buy 5 books? call it impulsive buying -- of course the 5 books included the bible for the wedding. But now more than ever, i'm looking forward to school break so i can read! read! and read! Here are the books i currently have on my to-do list:

Learn massage - isn't this lovely, of course i need someone to practice it on, i plan to be an expert by december. hehehe...


I've been wondering about the content of this book for the longest time, i think the vacation would be a good time to reflect on my life's purpose, too. :-)


Hahaha, this one caught my attention. I guess it'll be a good read, not that I suppose I can apply everything with our culture, but hey, what if I can?


This one was lent to me by my boss, I'm supposed to present on one of the qualities on our next MOR, this one is on top of my list. :-)


This one is an important book i plan to read over the summer. Its one of the bestsellers and I hope to gain a lot from it too.


Blame the expense on my Management Control professor who forced (motivated is a better word!) us to be "voracious" readers. I find her suggestion really sincere, hehehe.... i guess its really worth it to be good readers. I just hope I can someday find the time to read the Business World, as she suggested.

Happy Easter Everyone!!!

Surprise for me!!!!

Yesterday my E-proc friends brought ice cream and cake for my birthday. :-) i was touched! Never had too many surprises in this lifetime, I guess I was just really happy and lucky to have them as my friends.
Its funny because all throughout the morning yesterday I was in a rush, then all of a sudden everyone was asking me where i'll have lunch! hehehe... should have known something was coming up! I was really not going out for lunch but Tabs was on leave so we decided to have lunch. Funny, but my parents were also in Megamall and they wanted to have lunch sana, sayang! hehehe....
Then in the afternoon they went to our department with the cake and ice cream. kakatuwa talaga sila. hehehe... still waiting for the pics from cathy - nung food. :-) so glad to have nice friends.

my birthday

yesterday i had my 26th birthday, actually it was celebrated sunday, with family, tabs and my best friend, karen. it was really a tiring day for me, but i enjoyed it nevertheless. i so love my nephew and nieces. my nephew, at 11 years old, is very, very sweet. when he arrived he greeted me happy birthday with a tight hug. ain't that sweet? and then as they were leaving he gave me a hug ang pulled me up! huwatt!!! am that petite my 11-year old nephew can carry me, haaha. and my nephew, Kenneth, lets me hug and kiss him pa. i hope he doesn't change for the next 10 years! hahaha... kidding.
karen spent the night at home, while tabs left around 10. prior to that tabs and i were in the outside sala taking a nap, with his head on my lap and we were both tired!
hay, yesterday was ok. tabs and i did not meet anymore because i have an exam today. hay. its ok. was thinking that next year we'd be together on my birthday so ok na rin! hehehe... got a black forest from mon, ninong2be. then ara gave me some cinabbon too. haven't tasted it, will bring some tomorrow. my classmates are so sweet. ;-) tita agnes, ninang2be, gave me flowers and toblerone! hehehe... tita irene gave me a really cute flashlight key chain. really nice of them to give gifts. was so touched because i feel na one of them na ko sa dept even if i've been there for a year pa lang.
over all i feel blessed. went to mass in up to think Him for all the blessings. :-)

My HMUA is Brenda!

Yipeeeee!!! Had a really, really fantastic time last Saturday, when I had my trial HMU with Brenda Belgica. I really had a nice time being made up, and I found Brenda so much fun to talk to. We were just chatting away the whole time, also with my MOH and best friend who went along.
Its really nice to have a supplier who you can get along with, and I guess I'm lucky to have tried out Brenda. I initially planned to have a trial with Eddie Bruan and Ross Regala. But my coord told me of Ross' price increase and I was hesitant to schedule a trial too early. So my coord recommended Brenda instead. But of course I didn't decide yet to try him out. At first I was gonna schedule Eddie Bruan but then he was pencil-booked already, was still going to try him out except I learned that he had a trial already with one of the brides who pencil booked him. Plus it was hard to schedule a trial with Eddie because his weekends are full with weddings. Finally I gave Brenda a call and she said there are already 4 brides pencil booked! Huwaaat!!! But none of them had trial yet so I told him I'd get a trial last Saturday. Texted my best friend and she was luckily available. We set the trial at 9 am. We finished around 11 and boy, i found myself admiring me! teeheehee. Its nice because Brenda happened to work with some of the best in the industry, Juan Sarte, Lala Flores. What was nice was we knew some people in common. It really was not hard to have a conversation with her.
I booked her right there and then. Paid the 50% dp and gave her extra tip. and was so happy to learn that her rates are inclusive of retouch for the reception! yipeee!!!
Here are my pics:

Before the Trial (no make-up whatsoever) -- para sulit! hahaha!


Nice curly hair!


I look like a bride!!!!


Nice hair!

my blog has an all new look!!!

welcome! welcome to my all new blog!

whew, spent the entire day changing my blog! whew! i finally gave up trying to hide the comment section. sheesh. my head is aching trying to figure out how to hide that thing. but then, now I'm really, really satisfied with my blog. now it doesn't look like the ordinary blog. personalized it with my colors and my pics.

it really is fun to build webpages. so accomplishing (see: my mood today)

looking forward to tomorrow's trial make-up with Brenda. Hope all goes well. geez. my head and arms are aching. hihihi.

My dog is in heaven

this is our dog, Rudolf. At 3 human years, he was diagnosed with pneumonia just last Thursday. Yesterday the vet said that that was all they could do to save him. The sickness had gone to his lungs. The morning before he suffered from convulsions, he was still attentive and strong. I miss him so much. He's actually on comatose right now, but they will take him home today... if only so we can say goodbye to him.

He's such a great and loving dog. We will surely miss him.

reminiscing...

here i am, at almost 12 midnight, looking over at high school batchmate's blogs and pics... i was actually just searching for blogs and stuff to put at my avp, but i got to going over some batchmate's blogs. its actually a lot more interesting to look at high school batchmate's life that the college ones, because you know how different our lifes have become over the almost 10 years of separation. and yes, so much has changed.
i still see some of my high school friends of course, tabs, for one (joke!). my closest, dearest friends are my high school batchmates: karen, murs, marione, jeff, joey. friends for life. we meet every once in a while, go on overnights and generally catch up on things.
one of our batchmates, majella, just got married last january 12. they were the couple who got together a little before me and tabs (i figure they're also 9 years as a couple before tying the knot). i remember when pazzie got married and we got together to get the invites from her, i was kidding her that they should get married first. and they did. and its nice because a baby is on its way. funny how our perceptions change as we get older. me? what about me?
my plans? i plan to finish school. an mba was something i've always wanted. as soon as i graduated college its been part of my plans to take up graduate studies. the questions was really when and what course. now that im in up, i think its the best career decision i have ever made. yes the hard work really gets to you, late nights, cramming, tuition fees, school expenses... all of that pays off knowing that im learning a lot of new stuff, working my way towards success. and i enjoy it.
family? in a few months im getting married, something i've always wanted, something tabs and i are dreaming of for so many years...kids will have to wait till i finish school, although we both want it, its just that we feel that there is a right time for it, hopefully in 2007. and if there is anything i look forward to MORE that my MBA graduation, its getting married to the one man i truly, truly love and admire. the one person who can make me smile, laugh, cry, and the one person i know who loves me more than he does himself... and so do i. i can go on and on and on raving about how deeply i am in love with this guy, but suffice it to say that marriage comes as a thrill and as a fulfillment of all our dreams.

long weekend - Bridal Expo and Bonding with Hunny

God really has his ways of showing us how much he loves us. Last week was a terrible week for me ang tabs. we had a lot of disagreements, most of them, i admit, coming from me. I can't blame myself though, as I was pretty much stressed for the whole week. Its a good thing I had the weekend to look forward to. The wedding expo, my trip back to Ready to Wed for my gown, and tabs and my sunday date was really something to feel excited about.
I really felt happy when tabs decided that he'll join us to the bridal fair. Pero due to unforseen circumstances, we went to Ready to Wed first (the unforseen circumstance being that the Fort bus did not pass by the NBC tent before going to Market! Market!) So we dropped by Ready to Wed, I fitted my gown again (oh this was fun!) tabs saw it, he thinks its too simple, for me i think he hasn't seen me all dressed up really so he can't say it's not for me. I've always been the type of person to know what I want, and definitely, I knew what I wanted with my gown so I'm so happy with it.
This is the pic of the gown. I think its really so beautiful, simple and beautiful.

Anyway, afterwards we went to the bridal fair, looked around, and i had some sort of trial MU with Clamar. I wanted to book them but decided to try out others so I wont regret anything.

I was also able to book the bridal car (whopping 3700 for the car! whoohoo!!!) and I was able to buy our Unity Coins. Overall it was a fruitful trip, Tabs was very behaved (hihi) the entire trip and afterwards he texted me that he enjoyed it. He also said Id be beautiful, no matter what I wear or what kind of makeup I have. I know that, I know marrying him would make me beautiful, if only because the happiness will show in my face that day.
Sunday we spent a lot of time together. ALso Monday (took a leave from work). One of the things I appreciate about our weekend together was that we got the communication back. It really is so nice to be able to chat away, about life, career, family. Im just so happy.
Down with two sets of presentations for Management Control. One to go on Sunday. Hay, looking forward to school vacation! Then I can concentrate on the preps!

one presentation down

i did not imagine myself having to make a presentation 3 times in 2 weeks. sobrang tiring pala, emotionally and physically. as in after the case presentation last night my head was pretty much blank na. parang naglaho lahat ng laman. I really cant blame my groupmate, i know she's trying very much to give effort to our cases, siguro nga mabilis lang talaga ako at ang hirap mag-catch up. but i always find it flattering whenever she says na bilib sya sa kin. hahaha.... nagpapabola ba? she's always saying she admires me for being able to cope with all the acads, and work, and wedding preps, and somehow still find time to "enjoy" the everyday things in life. parang ganun. haha.

she's not seeing the weird things that's been happening to me though. as in, inaaway ko na si tabs, last wednesday when he was begging off our date nainis talaga ko. i was fuming mad no amount of apologies or what could really calm me. medyo nakalma lang ako when i got home. the next day i can't pinpoint why i was mad at all! waaahhh! nahihibang na ako!

yesterday i was cramming for my presentation at syempre inaaway ko pa rin sya! i was complaining about a lot of stuff and panicky that i won't be able to do well in the presentation. ayun, after a while mejo ok na rin kami, tapos he wanted to go with us to the bridal fair, gusto nga lang nya wag na si karen kasama ko sya nalang. hellloooo... di naman ata pwede yun kasi karen and i were pretty excited about the fair tagal na. whats more, i want to stay a while sa fair kaya magandang andun si karen. kasi kung kami lang baka 30 mins lang kami dun at di ko pa mabili unity coins ko!!! malay mo manalo pa ko trip to hongkong! bwahaha... (my sense of humor seems to be coming back, must be because i'll have a happy weekend ahead... sana). seriously, i plan to book a bridal car and get the unity coins today. afterwards baka makuha na namin ang wedding gown ko (this excites me!!!!!). i called ready to wed yesterdayand nandun na daw gown ko. makikita ni tabs pero ok lang naman sa kin. its not as if we've known each other for so little time naman. i think the thought of me on that gown on december 3 would still be just as exciting naman. sayang wala pa kong corset.

anyway, two presentations in line pa, tuesday and sunday next week. di bale, kaya ko itoh!!!! go jennie go jennie go!!!

a stressful month ahead

here i am, at 12:13 in the evening, typing away at my pc, with little hope of sleeping before 3 am. i'm actually resigning myself to the fact that this may be my routine for the next 3 weeks prior to my birthday and to holy week. just this evening after class our professor gave out the remaining cases which we will be discussing for the next 3 meeting, all 7 cases! imagine that!!!! 7 cases???? we barely have time to make 1 case in a week, let alone an average of three in a week! what's more, with all of us 9 in class, that gives us a grand total of 3 case presentations! isn't it just ironic? that's only for 1 subject. Oh, by the way, the pay-off for the 7 cases would be an early finish for the Management Control Class, which means 1 less subject to worry about after the Holy Week.

Now we move on to Organizational Behavior. Don't take me wrong, I think this is a good class in terms of subject matter, not so much with the professor, but in class there are a whole lot of insights to gain. Plus the textbook is really great. Now, aside from the finals, which i presume will be after the holy week, there is still the journal to submit, and frankly, in as much as i have a lot of ideas to write on it, based on experiences and my insights on the matter, i just can't seem to squeeze it in schedule. So, unfortunately, this is something that I can only start after the last case in Control is over and done with. That would be after March 13.

Lastly, Marketing. This is turning out to be an interesting class, in as much as i have yet to learn any concepts, I find the insight papers really interesting subjects. I myself will be reporting probably on March 21. Still have to work on that report, but added to it, we still have to submit 2 more insight papers (mar 7 and 21) and we have a class/group project to submit too.

So much for the requirements. All of my three subjects will have finals. For Control its Mar 22, OB and Marketing skeds are yet to be announced.

Bottomline? Wedding preps have to take a backseat at least till after my finals. whew, once i get through this semester i promise i'll sleep at 8pm and wake up late! i'm so looking forward to summer vacation (in acads of course). There's still work, but hopefully after my classes I can really pour 100% of my efforts to work quality and hopefully learn new things.

Waiting for Saturday, Karen and I will be going to the Wedding Expo. This will be the last time I'll go about wedding preps, after this i need to stop it for a while to focus on acads. Its ok though, I have the whole summer to think about my wedding so a few more weeks really don't make much difference.

blogging is so addicting!

gosh. here i am early in the morning, right before breakfast, checking on my blog and seeing what needs to be added to it. i've been waiting for photobucket to load my pics, for the last 20 mins! gosh! i dunno if its my connection or what. my golly! i want to add some of our prenups pics to the sidebar, hope i can get it done today.
after lunch i'll be meeting with my friend, murs, over her little dilemma, uhh.. problem? uhh... huge problem. i can't tell because i don't want to publisize her life (did i get that spelling right???) but anyhow, i asked her to accompany me with preps. want to go to star paper today, and then hopefully to papermart to buy that small puncher thingie. i'm going to start a collection of punchers! bwahahaha! I have now a regular puncher, a one-hole puncher, a floral design puncher. now i want the puncher that the bus drivers use for the tickets. hehehe....

on wedding updates

whew! exams are over! midterms lang pala. Bwahahaha.... i can rest for a few days before i go back to the wonderful albeit tiring MBA tasks. dami pang projects and stuff to do for school pero i want to take time out muna at least till the end of this week. at syempre pa and inasikaso ko... ay wedding preps! haha!
yesterday was finished with my suppliers list. I'll just add on any new suppliers as we go along. at least for me, it would be easier to turn it over to my coordinator come october. also i was able to do my guest list. i got the template from the w@w files, downloaded it and used it to list my guests, in shortcut form na. galing because it has pivot table already. so cool! hehehe.... and i'm happy i was able to again downsize my list to 113 people (including us 2). wawa naman tinanggal ko. nyahahaha.... but like i said to hubby-to-be, its either i invite all or none at all. e di none at all na lang! no, actually kasi i'll just add them later on when budget will permit pero for now, wag na muna.
tomorrow, i plan to go to star paper and quiapo. canvass for swarovski beads and crystals na pwede gawing cord. then murs and i (and hopefully tabs, na mega drinamahan ko kagabi!) will go to intramuros and baywalk (at last!!!!)
gusto ko na magbakasyaon!!!!

Sunday together

Tabs visited me at home today. I'm so happy. Well, basically because sabi nya di naman daw nya ko matitiis lalo na kapag nagtatampo na ko. hehehe... ayan tuloy naguilty na ko na nagtatampo ako at nagseselos sa gaming nya. hehe.

he saw the pics of the gown, ang taba ko daw tignan. ehehehe... pano naman di ako mataba tignan e 2 sizes above mine yung top na yun. just he wait pag nakuha ko na gown ko! hahaha.... at least di nya kita yung design so may element of surprise pa rin.

anyway, we just talked and hung-out. its nice to just be with him. sobrang hapi ng pakiramdam. again, i feel like i want december to go so much faster para i can spend na my life with him!

gotta review for my tuesday exam! wish me luck!!!!

wedding updates

so happy yesterday! got to 2 wedding details and I guess I can now rest a bit because these were all major wedding details.

My MOH, Karen, and I met at MRT Que Ave around 9 am. We then went to Market! Market! (first timers. :-) ) Plan of Action: READY-TO-WED store. True enough, since we are running around on limited time because Karen had to work at around 2 pm, we went there directly. The saleslady there (or manager. since she was alone) was letting us look around, which was nice because we could even discuss without her asking us anything (i don't like it when they follow you around). We didn't find any new designs for the MOH, although I really liked the gowns there for moms.

We were almost through when i saw this pretty, pretty skirt-gown. hehehe.... how do you call that? it still wasn't displayed on a mannequin however they were gonna do that soon. So I asked the lady if I could fit it and she said yes. Lo and behold! The skirt fit me! Its as if it was made for me!!!! I then put on the halter top (which was way too big for me). My MOH and me and the saleslady were all discussing for the longest time about the gown, how to reserve it, etc. etc. I ended up buying the gown and having to order a new top, but i asked them to make it spaghetti-strap with the same beading as the halter. I really liked the beading of the gown. It was simple and yet the execution was great. Heres the pic of me wearing the gown (kinda blurred) but then again at least you won't see how big the top is to me, hehe.



Here's the shop of Ready to Wed in Market! Market!


I also got the long veil because its always been my dream to wear one. teeheehee.

After eating at Tokyo Tokyo Karen and I went around for a while after which we left Market! Market! for Windmills and Rainforest, where I was supposed to pay for my reception venue (the 50% down). The owner, Mrs. Rieza, seemed in a really good mood and was giving us a lot of stories. By the way, she waived the electricity charges already for the LCD Projector. Yipeee! I'm so confident with my venue because the owner seems to be really in touch with everything happening at the affair. I'm so happy with her.



All in all, it was a fantastic day. I just wish December is just around the corner!

just love it! 

tabs gave this to me. its so beautiful! 

fantastic valentine's day

what can i say? i had the best of the best valentines' day there ever could be! giddy is the word!!!!

feb 13 (as in my previous post) tabs asked me out for dinner (oist, this is not an illusion ha, he really did ask me out!!!!) and i was so happy because i really wasn't expecting v-day date because i had classes till 9:30 and i had tons of homework but hey, its my fiance asking me out! I would definitely go!!!

so this morning i told my mom na we had plans to eat dinner after school. and i decided to ask tabs if we could eat at yellow cab katips so we won't be too far from home because he needs to make me hatid. hehehe....

i spent the day at the office preparing for my report and attending the MOR meeting after lunch, which btw, for me is a real good training ground to understand the operations of the beer division. hmmm.... career, career... one day i can get to be an Ariba consultant, i think if they were to ask who was the expert in Ariba in the Beer Division they wouldn't think of anyone else but me! :-P kidded tabs that he should get out of the office and play na lang somewhere in philcoa so he can buy me a gift and not be late. i was really joking, i really don't expect him to buy me a gift or flowers.

had to attend class. Org Behavior is getting more and more interesting, since our prof finally gave up being so stiff and righteous and now she lets the class speak more than she does. Really appreciate these discussions. My classmates have such invaluable insights i never would learn had i not gone to MBA. Marketing was pretty great too because Mon, Ging and Gelo had to report on their Insight papers. Its only then that i realized that all of us had to actually report. Uh-oh..... i don't have any insights on anything, marketing wise.... can we not talk about anything else?? huhuhu.... i'm due to report on the 14th of march. pretty far pa naman, but have to think about it nevertheless....

while in class i realized that tabs' text about "madaming bombahan" was actually true, there was a bus bombing in makati and i was really worried because gette showed me her mom's text message that a lot died, gosh... tabs had to take the bus home and that gets me doubly worried... i felt i had to cancel but part of me wants to still go out (sayang make-up and japorms!). around past 9 he was telling me it was traffic. i didn't really press coz he might get mad and i didn't want to start an argument on v-day.

after class i chatted a while with my classmates at the BA lobby. chicka-chika. grimi and company were just about leaving when i saw tabs walking towards BA, carrying a huge (yes, huge! i'm not exagg) bouquet of flowers. awwww, i was gushing to my classmates because i was so kilig! its fun pala if you really don't expect and something comes along, rather than to expect it. i was so kilig i kissed tabs in front of my classmates. hehehe... so what if they saw it? :-)

off we went to yellow cab. we missed the darn place because there was no sign. good thing it wasn't too far off, and had dinner. i really felt like i was a moviestar! you know how they give these real big bouquets to them after interviews? well i had THAT bouquet! i felt so Sikat! hahaha... gosh i love my fiance! we had dinner and chatted. i love these times when we can just have dinner and talk. no wedding preps this time, just time out to talk about stuff and life. i guess that's the best part about having a your boyfriend as your best friend, you can talk about anything and everything!

we went home afterwards and watched a little tv. both of my parents were sleeping already so we cuddled while watching Ok fine. We were supposed to wait for the news but tabs had to go home already as it was 11:30 pm. so he left, of course our goodbye kiss was really so nice, if i had the time to sleep i would definitely dream about it!

so there, bouquet is in the dining table under a mug of water (no vase that can accomodate its size). i'll stare at it after tonight's requirements are done. huh. for me it really was a perfect valentine's!!! thanks so much honey! love you!!!

hay.... i'm thinking of going on leave on thursday to catch up for the midterms in OB. our boss is in the Natl MOR, hopefully out of town so i can go on leave. if not, oh well. i'll study during office hours. sana! day one of hellweek is over. 4 days to go. its now 2:41 am and i have not started any of my two problem sets and case! waaaah!!!! i'll tell tabs tomorrow that he'll have the rest of the week to himself, he can play mu all he wants! i still have to think about whether we will meet on saturday though, part of me wants to sleep the whole weekend, hay, but we have exams on tuesday next week. so that does it for sleeping time.

seeking inspiration - a whirlwind of thoughts

its already valentines day! whew!

and again, as in all occasions, naisip ko na last v-day ko na 'to na di pa ko misis! hehehe.... funny how it is that while i'm all excited for my upcoming wedding a part of me thinks that i might miss on some things only single women do. yup, there are times that i think it would be fun to be spending time with friends or officemates, but then i've made plans to be with tabs, or spend the day with his family. but looking back i don't think i would ever regret those decisions i made. its been almost 9 years since we exchanged our first i love you's and suffice it to say, its still said with the same emotions and kilig as it was the first time. Well, now it means so much more than just the i love you. but the thing is that, we all choose the path in life that we take, and this path i chose, i know, will make me happiest. i think the 9 year relationship itself was filled, to some extent, of what-ifs. Even tabs would sometimes comment how he wishes he went out on dates, had other girlfriends... stuff like that. but still the choice he made was to stick to me (i'm so glad he did!).

everone thinks its time for us to get married already. they are probably right. it's been a long time to "get to know each other". and while there will always be uncertainties as to the life we will live after december 3, i know that its something we've worked hard for and something we can get through together. there are fears, i have them too, fears such as: what if i don't make a good life? what if we can't get by financially? what if he doesn't come home at night because he wants to play the pc at the office?, what if? see, my fears are not that bad, don't you think, i don't fear that our marriage won't work, because i know it will, not about loyalty, not about trust, definitely no doubts about love. hay.... sometimes i get to think of these things because of all the excitement of preparing. ;-)

was thrilled nga pala when tabs called this afternoon asking me about dinner tonight. kakakilig! i was actually (really!!!) not expecting a date na kasi its a really hectic week for me and i have class till 9:30. so imagine how happy i was when he asked me what we'll do tomorrow. Unfortunately i can't NOT attend the marketing class tomorrow because i've missed so much already with all my absences there. i do hope tabs will agree to just have dinner at katipunan and take me hope so we don't need to go too far.

i'm seeking inspiration right now before i finish my marketing paper. i think i'll be like this for the rest of the week. sleepless nights. waaah!!! I actually just slept around 10-12 (i wake up every 20 min though) and i don't really plan to sleep anymore till morning. i want to finish up on the paper and after that the two chapter summaries i've been working on yesterday. so i don't have to bring my OB Book tomorrow, hehehe.... its not cool to be out with your boyfriend in a really nice attire and carrying a book. hahaha.... its not cool to use a folder too, but hey, i don't have a choice. studies can really ruin social life! hahaha... i wonder though if i should buy tabs a valentine's gift? I actually bought him the excelsior spa discount card, i wanted him to try it out too, but now i'm thinking that it would be nice to give him something tomorrow. well of course, i'm not expecting anything from him! really, is this maturity? i've actually accepted the fact that he's not the unpredictable, "ill give you roses today" type of guy. he's just the practical, down-to-earth, intelligent man that i love so much! in our 9 years of being together he has given me flowers for a total of 3 times: (1) JS prom, 4th year - actually it was a corsage; (2) First valentines together, 1997; (3) that one time he surprised me with a bouquet of flowers for no reason at all. this was the best of course, shock of my life! hahaha! imagine, someone who does not give flowers giving you one for no occasion at all. hahaha.... i imagine how i must have looked that day, good thing i don't have a weak heart! i might have suffered a heart attack right then and there!

only 10 months to go

barely 10 months na lang....

school is really becoming pressing these days I guess i need to take time out for wedding preps. i have an insight paper on monday, two problem sets and a case on tuesday (for 1 class) and midterms for another class on thursday. kainis kasi i just stopped coffee for 5 days and then now i have to start drinking again becomes i;m bound to have sleepless nights. unfortunately i can't take a leave from work din kasi for sure MOR is next week na. haaay... so sad.... next week I'll really leave all wed preps at home na until i finish hell week, ahuhuhu....

valentines day coming up.... no plans pa kami.... have class din and syempre hell week so unlikely we'd be going out... kalunglot naman.... la lang...

chatting with my sweetie

hay, my poor baby is stuck in the office working, not that he likes to but he has to. so here i am, chatting with him on the other end so he won't be feeling too bad.
tomorrow is going to be one long preps day. well, basically not preps day, its more of a going around day pala. although invites and rings are definitely a part of the preps.
agenda:
1. go to qp
2. go to binondo/ongpin area to canvass rings. papasukat ko na rin ring finger ni tabs para alam na namin.
3. go to Manila Hearing Aid - patest si tabs
4. go to Sanctuario de san Antonio bridal fair - get prenups cd.
5. go to Market! market! to look at gowns.

that will be one long day, whew.
i badly, badly need a massage. tabs has actually promised to give me one and i'm eagerly awaiting it.
