Noche Buena 2010

I'm writing this at 11:32PM. Less than 30 minutes and its officially Christmas. Everyone is quiet and tired of preparing the last minute gifts that we've prepared for tomorrow's Christmas party. But as I am typing here in our room, I really feel sad.

Don't get me wrong, of course I am happy with my family here but I there is a part of me that greatly misses two important person in my life. Joey and Lola Payat.

Its our 2nd Christmas without her. She might be having her own Christmas party with the real birthday celebrant, Jesus Christ. If only I could turn back time, it would be very nice to see her eyes glitter again whenever she receive gifts from us. I can still see her smiles and hear her voice. For me, she's the best grandmother in the world and I know, she loves us dearly as we love and miss her too.

Joey and I never spent Christmas or New Year together every since we've been in a relationship. Believe it or not, it's never a Nombre tradition to let other people sleep in our house for Christmas or New Year's Eve so there's no way that Joey can spend the midnight at home. My frustration is, now that we're married and can now spend the holidays together, he is now in Thailand.

A call from him is a big relief. We prayed together and hope for a better 2011. Whenever if I'm hysterical of missing him,  it's so nice that Joey has his ways of making things better and that's the thing that I really love about him. I just wish that I have the same courage as him to not miss him so.

Tonight's Christmas gift giving is awesome. I got a cool jacket from April, a laptop sleeve from Gibb and a box of Castañas from Mama! In return, I gave a body bag (Fila) to Gibb and a couple of hand bags to April and Mom (Sylvia Santos) . I may not be 100% happy emotionally, but at least I'm 100% satisfied with the gifts that I gave them. For once, I finally purchased the things that I want to give them for Christmas.

Even if I don't have Lola anymore, at least I still have Joey. With all the things that I have this holidays, I still believe that it would still be the best if he's with me.

I miss him and lola so much. Well, at least I have my family to keep me company. They are also the source of my strength.

Christmas Rush No More

I'm so satisfied with the gifts that I bought this Christmas. Happy! Happy! 


However, it was really a pain that I ever believed in this Christmas rush drama. I end up spending more than I should. :(

I thought that I could save by going to Baclaran to buy some stuff but unfortunately, there wasn't much to buy since there has been some series of vendor-police chasing there so it was really a bad move.  In general, I spent my gift hunting at SM Dasma and you know what? I can was able to find cost effective gifts there.

Next Christmas, I know where to buy and I swear, I will not spend the way I did this holidays.


Happy Christmas everyone!

Jingle Bell Rock, Baclaran Blues and A Whole Lot of Wrappin'

I thought that I will be on the blues since Joey is not around for Christmas, but instead, I was so busy as hell since the Christmas vacation started.

ITS and CCS Christmas Party at Biñan - had a blast and won 500 bucks! :)

UPH Christmas Party @ GMA -What am I going to do with all of this laundry stuff?

CCS Swimming (Hotdog day) - Played with my kids(students).

Buying gifts for my ina-anak, friends and family members, taking care of my exam papers (geezzz...), preparing my report paper for MIT, clearing our bills and more.

 Not to mention that now, I have two (2) families to spend my Christmas with and I have to choose only one! :(

Because of my busy schedule, I think I'm going to spend my Christmas at Bago Bantay and the new year's eve at Nueva Ecija.


I wish I could find the perfect gift for Joey and I hope that I'll find the best way to send it to him.

Online Journal And A Globe Tattoo

dFirst! Fresh from me and yep, I chose Blogger. Why? Well, because I already have a Blogger account since college, I just don't use it yet. Haha!

After years, I've decided to give blogging a chance to enter my life. Para saan naman itong account na ito kung hindi ginagamit diba?

Well, let's just see where it'll bring me. :)
