A heart's journey

 Remember when... Flashback 1985... Josie's debut

Watched concert of Jose Marie Chan last night. Not a powerful belter but a soothing and cool singing voice. I don’t know why but it always makes me feel good after listening to his songs, parang life is so beautiful. Grabe, na-miss ko music nya. Will buy his Golden Hits CD when I get the chance. Kagabi sana eh at may libre autograph and picture pa with him kaya lang nagmamadali kami kasi punta pa kami casino, he he --- slot machine lang naman ang kaya kong laruin dun, won 500 pesos, yey!!!

A love to last a lifetime (do you remember this Joe Marie Chan song?)

We're all merely passing through
Doing what we can do for a lifetime
We have more than one adventure to take
More than one dream to make in our lifetime

Pilit sumasayaw

 Belly dance class at Pinnacle Eastwood. Valentines lights at the walkways.

Went to belly dance class yesterday evening with Saree. First time kaya may nabali yatang buto sa katawan ko. Enjoy sya, sobra! Sakit lang sa katawan so we got a massage after--- aaaah, pure bliss…  

Kopi Roti

 Weird food but you get to like it after a while
Finished at the spa after 12 ng madaling araw so we decided to get some breakfast. This coffee shop has been featured on TV, food served is Singaporean. Softboiled eggs with soy sauce and French Toast with Pandan jam. Yummmmy! 

Ha ha ha

 
A hilarious show!

Sample of Rex Navarette's kind of humor... Excerpt from the monologue of a domestic helper named Marites who is employed by the Superfriends..."you know Batman, I think he's gay, he's always with that little boy Robin"  

Hapi Balemtayms

 
Isang faux cake na gawa sa lata ng biskwit at mga kendi nabili ko sa Shoemart sa halagang piptin pesos per wan handred grams. Specially hand-made for this occassion :)

Happy VD everyone! 

Makalumang paraan ng pagluluto

 
First attempt to cook in a palayok. The entrée--- pritong vigan longganisa

Mga sisters-in-crime, para sa inyo to! Happy Valentine’s Day 

Tampisaw

 
Relaxing at Villa Escudero last Monday. Taken at the man-made waterfall a.k.a hydroelectric generator where we took our lunch.

Host: Ano ang pambansang inumin ng Pilipinas? Ito ay magsisimula sa letter "T" (Psst, tubig ang sagot)
Tirso: Tsaa?
Host: Hinde!!! Clue, ito ay nanggagaling sa gripo
Tirso: Tulo?!?! 

Taguan

 

While waiting for our jeepney ride, naglaro muna kami ng taguan. Nang dumating si Manong, ni-joke namin sya...



Alin ang may mas maraming sakay, pampaseherong jeep o ambulansya?
Siempre ambulansya... kasi sa jeep, ang kasya lang sa magkabilaan, pito-pito, walo-walo, pwede pa nga siyam-siyam. Pero sa ambulansya, kadalasan sakay, fifty-fifty!
Ba't kaya di natawa si Manong? 

Ang kalabaw

 

Carabao ride. Leftmost is Tirso (yung nasa likod ni Manong), nanumbalik na sya sa dating nyang anyo dahil nabasted


Host: Ano ang pambansang hayop ng Pilipinas?
Tirso: Kuto?
Host: Hinde!!! Clue, ito ay nagbubungkal ng lupa!
Tirso: Kutong-lupa? 

Dungawan sa kusina

 

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your request be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your heart and mind through Christ Jesus.

(The Bible) 

Dapit-hapon from the rooftop

 

"I didn't think orange went with purple until I saw the sunset you made on Tuesday. That was cool."

(Daily Bread) 

Alay kay Alitaptap Kutitap

 

Virgin Coconut Oil na makakabuti sa iyong kalusugan. Picture na lang kasi ayaw tanggapin ng Fedex dahil baka dangerous substance daw ang ipapadala ko dyan sa Canada. Kelangan daw na MSDS or Materials Safety chu chu certificate. Ayaw naman akong bigyan ng Splash (manufacturer) dahil tatatlong bote lang daw binili ko. Kung isang cargo van, baka pa. Nyok! 

Alay kay Atinapay

 

Isang kilo ng supertamis na kiat-kiat (kaya lang nabawasan ko na eh). Miniature ponkans na supersiksik sa Vitamin C para tuluyang gumaling ang iyong sipon 

Alay kay Badaday

 
Dito sa nilipatan namin, walang garden. But I still want to have plants and flowers kaya sa rooftop naglagay ako ng iilang potted plants. These are for Badaday na gumamit ng kanyang mabulaklak na alindog sa Boracay upang makahingi ng free ice tea para sa apat na sikat

For Kutitap, Scandinavia, and Atinapay San 

Ang aming dala

 

It was a potluck party so we brought my favorite...Brazo de Mercedes. Yummmm 

Isang salu-salo

 

I went to a family birthday party 

An indoor garden we designed and made for Papa's birthday

 
Nature heals, as well as reflects, the brokenness we find within ourselves. Take solace in the terrible beauty and fierceness of earth's landscapes. 

Ang stalker sa Burgoo

 


Sa likod pa namin pumwesto ang ex-boyfriend ni Badang. Makatapos ang pakikipag-break nya dito ay parati na syang sinusundan. Kaya naman nung kami ay muling nagkita-kita ay di sya nito tinantanan... ngeeee. Aba, nag-smile pa ang kumag, tama na raw sa kanya ang masilayan ang kagandahan ni Badaday...
