..work week and eating out @ marina

days passes by so fast.. i was given a task in the office and we were suppose to finish it yesterday. good thing, the 3 of us (newbies) can't make it on the deadline that's why our tech lead moved our progress meeting to next week. how i wish i could pause the time, so i can meet deadlines.. its not easy learning a new software.. especially if you're meant to customize it. =( i know i can do it.. just have to learn it fast..

Weekend @ Marina

jeffAnna@marina
by annasilaran.

last saturday, we went to Marina South Hawker Centre and enjoyed ourselves to eat-all-you-can seafood-steamboat. our experience here is different coz we cooked our food on our table. we just had a small pot of water over a stove, w/ a sizzling plate. so we cooked the shrimp, fish, squids, chicken strips, beef strips etc. on the spot! in the end we managed to have our "mixed-soup" =D we just don't know how to call it.. we just dumped different dimsums in it, some veggies and some of the crabs! ayos! =D pa-cham na lasa nung soup hehe!
we finished around 9pm. since we we're so full, we got a taxi on our way home =D

bryan's birthday!!

today is bryan's 4th birthday..

bryan is our "adopted" cousin, who apparently, was intentionally left by his mom..and my tito, mame's youngest brother, brought him to our home some time in January 2003. so when I arrived home that night, I was surprised that we already have a baby at home..instant! =D I was asking my mom, months before that day, if she can still conceive a baby.. kasi i felt a longing for a younger sibling.. so my mom, adopted a puppy! hehe! si kulit. then after a couple of months.. here comes bryan.. =D so since then he became our (if not my) responsibility..i would buy him milk, since he was 4 months old then..if my pay wasn't enough for the budget..my parents was there to help =) and for a couple of months, his father, my tito, brings supplies.. but i can no longer remember the the last time he visited his son..except:

• on bryan's first birthday, my tito arrived with a magician for the kids.
• sometime between bryan's 1st and 2nd birthday.. Hindu Ku nay nag matandaan db?
• New Year's day, 2004,2005, 2006. when we're celebrating family's reunion.

im not mad at my tito naman..anyway.. I am trying to understand him why he seldom visits or sees his son. i know that with his job, he won't be able to support his child. besides, maybe it hurts him more seeing his son grow away from him.. so as not to prolong/worsen the agony..he chooses not see him nay lang.. i don't really know..
I pity bryan when I first saw him.. but I felt happy knowing we're having a baby at home. Good thing he had grown up well (I had a second about this). He's the typical playful child. However, since we watch UFC at home..i guess you have an idea how he plays.. =D yun ang past time nya.. when ever my dad is watching tv, bigla nay lang may dadamba sa kanya.. =) he's all time fave movie is Shrekk, recent fave is Cars. We uses to play Beetles cd just to put him to sleep, mga 1 year old sya nito.. as in gasgas nay yung cd sa kanya..

nakaka miss si kolokoy..kasi malambing sya sa aken and takot sya aken!! ayaw nya ako nagagalit. kasi nakita na nya kung pano ako magalit =D ang dialog nya.. "ayaw galit anna!!" habang umiiyak.. hehe! Daddy ko nag aalaga sa kanya, pati si Kuya Ian nya, away bati sila.. and bryan is already acting as a "kuya" to Ariannel, my niece. mas malambing pa nga si bryan kesa ke arian eh.. =P

sana hindi kame iwan ni bryan when he's already grown up.. alam mu yun, sana piliin pa din nya dade and mame ko, kasi I know sya yung happiness ng parents ko, although madalas sakit ng ulo hahaha! =D

by the way, sabi pala ni Bryan ang name is Bryan Cunanan sapwit !! =D

i hope my blogger pa pag laki ni bryan, so he can read this entry hehe! =D

first day hi! =)

my first day at work here wasn't that traumatic.. thank goodness =)

I used to be early on my first work-days..as in, the only day na hindi ako late..=D
that's why I'm always after a flexi schedule at work..but last Thursday was different..I am late for 10 mins. my TL looked at her watched as she approached me at the lobby, smiling. =) its was raining hard that morning in case she would ask why am I late.. hehe! syempre dapat ready sa alibi..=P

our office is cool..at least on my opinion..hehe!
before you get to the work-place you'll pass through the pantry where the billiards table lies at the center..(oops its not used for dining naman hehe).. we can get free food and drinks at the pantry if we want, except those labeled ofcourse =D

my work place is typical..although my TL said we are transferring to a new building in two weeks time.. there are 3 newbies in the group (including me).. the other 2 guys were malaysian and Indonesian.. so eto na ang story, hindi ko trip yung isa.. yung indo.. kasi suplado sya.. whenever I would ask something, parang halos ayaw nya ko sagutin.. antipats! feeling ko din ma ere sya..(i'm being mean now..) he enjoys his ipod nano.. kiber ko! =P

i didn't had problem about lunch kasi my TL called me for lunch..akala ko nga naiwan na ako at first.. but my TL managed to wait for me hehe..kahiya..=P so the group had lunch at the nearby hawker.. kaso when I ordered my food, i thought it was pork yun pala tofu yung nabigay sa aken.. so bitin! pero okay lang.. i've got not much work to do naman.. just have to read articles and tutorials.. =P

so my first day isn't that bad.. hopefully I'll be able to cope up with the environment..
pang international kasi ang team..=D

konting chika..

kamusta naba? =)
eto mabuti naman po kami..naka 1 month na kame dito singapore..at may update ako..mag start na ako sa work tomorrow! =P
hind ko nga alam kung excited ba ako or what.. pero ang alam ko is sobrang thankful ako at nag katrabaho na ako.. kasi nakaka inip d2 sa bahay..naka pag pahinga naman na ako..sinulit ko ang 1 week na tulog until 12 noon.. hehe! sakit sa ulo.. =)

i remember yung post ni gewi about "first days" in work.
based on my experience kasi..it's either i'm having lunch alone or i didn't had lunch at all..=D
saklap db? yun kasi yung nangyari sa aken on my last 3 companies.. so sad.. pero nagkaron na din naman ako ng mga friends after that..=) eh eto sa Pilipinas.. pano na ko dito? =(
i hope may mag aya sa aken mag lunch.. pero ang tanong.. trip ko kaya sumama sa mag aaya sa aken? =(
ano buzz? ang laki ng problema ko..

good thing malapit lang yung office sa bahay..sa Frontline po ako made-deploy..
so sabay kame ni Jeff mag-MRT, I'm off to Kembangan station. =)

hay.. i hope maging okay ang first day ko.. sana hindi ako ma-pressure agad.. *cross-fingers*

tp, pagdating mo dito, penge naman ng konting kalufetan mo hehe! =D

jane, best wishes po sa inyo ni o'neal..=)

together again

"..dream about us together again 'cause..
everywhere I go..
every smile I see..
i know you are there, smilin back at me.."

that's the song that came to my mind when I started this page..
why? cause my hubby's back from the Philippines..

raymond accompanied me to pick him up at the Budget Terminal.
oh how I missed Ilo.. =D *hugs*
dami nya bitbit..kaso iniwan nya yung tocino.. tas inggitin pa kame ni raymond na yun yung lunch nya.. hmpf! =P

this is the longest time that we've been apart since we met..(as far as I can recall)
but for the past 4 days.. i was so quiet.. so masipag.. =D so lonely..
wala yung kalaro ko eh.. can't sleep well din kasi wala yung extra pillow ko hehe! =P
and wala din po ako cook.. grabe all I can cook is pangat and prito. =P
i thought na kaya ko yung boredom pag wala si Jeff.. kasi may mga kasama naman ako sa house..may ka kwentuhan.. grabe pala talaga ang kakulitan ng asawa ko.. nakaka miss din pala..

so now, we're back to normal.. may maingay na naman sa bahay..
feeling ko kasi kaming dalawa lang ang maingay dito.. =P kasi parati kame may discussion..
oh well.. I'm so thankfull he's with me again.. hindi na ko papayag na maiiwan ako ulit mag-isa next time..

* tp, sorry daw po kasi na late si Jeff last saturday..=D
got your book..hope I can finish it in 2 weeks.. hehe! =)

the Big news

the big news is may work na ako!! *clap-clap* *with matching talon*

yep.. i signed already and I'll be starting first week of September.

ever since we came here SG, wala kame ginawa ni Jeff kundi mag online sa JobsDB and Jobstreet.. hubby used to buy Straight Times every morning, browse through the classifieds and in the afternoon..we would rent sa Downtown East for an internet connection. so we can send our CVs sa mga nakita namin(sa newspaper). Buti na lang nandito si Raymond. He's lending us his pc at night so we can save. I remember, first night namin in SG, pinahiram na kame ni Jun(housemate namin) ng laptop, so work na kami agad..

as in everyday we're sending applications. doble-doble na nga eh..
i even used my kakapalan ng mukha d2. kasi i've been sending my application to a certain agency, wherein I can see that I meet their requirements naman.. pero ni acknowledgement email na " we are received your blah-blah.. and are reviewing.." chuva wala man lang.. i searched for the contact details of the company and looked for the particular agent. as in sinabi ko na "I've been sending you emails but I haven't got any feedback from you." oh diba ang taray ng lola.. hehe! eh di in-interview nya ako on the spot. yun nga lang ng marinig ang aking asking salary eh wala daw sila opening for now? hallur? pero anyway.. eh di tinigilan ko sya.. ang impt me closure hahaha! arte. tama ba yun? =P

pag dating namin d2 SG, I emailed Renie(a friend from Citibank) and I was able to talk to him. Sya po ang isa sa instrument why I got this job. kasi he refered me to his previous agency. nakaka tuwa kasi pilipino din pala yung agent, si Ms.Catherine. Nakakatuwa si Ms.Cathy kasi sobrang bilib sya sa kapwa pinoy. She gave me confidence para hindi kabahan sa interviews. Thanks Ms.Cathy! =)

For the first week, we received calls from different companies..agencies for me.. kay Jeff puro mga direct companies which is better db? swerte ko pa din kasi most ng mga tumawag sa aken puro mababait. so wait lang ako ng mga schedule ng mga interviews. then on the second week I attended interviews na..and Jeff became shortlisted already. I'm so happy for my hubby. =) It seems na meant for him yung work nya. kasi he can see himself growing with the company daw. sana nga mahal you'll be able to stay there for as long as you want.

as for me.. simple na lang yung naging desisyon ko.. I chose the job inline with my experience, (.Net), then yung growth, it'll come my way I know.. for as long as i'm doing my best. since its a new beginning, I'll start down below. =)
besides, He has given us all that we have prayed for.. ngayon paba naman ako mag doubt? I entrust to Him everything. =)

ngayon lang ata ako na-excite ng ganito about my new work.. kasi first mejo malapit lang yung office ni Jeff sa magiging office ko.. second, the same yung schedule namin.. so we can walk every morning.. then go home in the evening ng sabay, or at least meet up sa station.. enjoy pa naman kame sa community dito.. so almost a dream come true.. almost kasi dream ko may car kame.. hehe! but still i'm so happy about it. =)

right now im alone here sa room.. i miss my Ilo.. =( uwi ka agad mahal..
nasa pinas sya, taking care of the things we need to settle. gusto ko umuwi pero hindi practical.
he's coming back sunday.. hopefully magawa nya lahat ng nasa list.. wawa naman..
importante sa list ko is yung kikay set ko.. kasi lalo ako umiitim dito kakalakad.. =(
saka na ko bibili ng papaya soap hehe!

hmm... kita-kits tayo? libre ko kayo!!!..... pag sumweldo na ko.. mwehehhe! =D

* I hope that I'll be able to inspire other people to just dream and work hard for it. for as long as you have faith, you'll get it. thanks to all my friends who prayed for us too. =)

A Whole New World

a lot of things of things have changed already and I hadn't had ample time to visit and update my own blog for quite a while.. thanks to raymond, I got the chance to catch up on my friends' lives..and got this new template hehe!

after getting married.. having our own home (a small unit in spacio bernardo).. now we are here in singapore.. yep.. things are happening so fast I can't even think how and where to start my story..

our first two-week stay here is pretty much okay.. although i must admit that it wasn't easy.. we have to adjust especially on the food and transportation. grabe nawala na kaya ako? I missed my bus stop and I'm already late for my appointment.. my fault 'cause I didn't have my map with me. =P

Last sunday hubby and I had our morning spent at the park. at first we were jogging, but since I can't catch up on Jeff(kasi puro ako lakad) we looked for the bicycle kiosk and rented. with that we were able to tour the whole park, with out me needing a nebulizer hehe! =p

hopefully this weekend we can go out and visit places. i want to see the musical fountain. =) yun lang muna.. basta gusto ko lang mamasyal haha! =D

pictures at last!

finally i was able to upload these wedding pictures..
hope you enjoy it. Ü

nothing to worry

ooops! before pa mag worry ang lahat... i'm here na ulet.. just breaking the silence..Ü
thanks geri for posting some of the pictures.. i hardly had time to browse and visit friends' blogs..and I can't relate to AI fever of geri, harbs and ria.. hehe! =D

just for an update..me and hubby are doin fine in our new home.. we moved in last may 6 and it was fun and tiring at the same time.. funny thing was, we forgot a lot of things to bring in our new house. imagine that night, we slept with no pillows, blankets and bed sheets. just the plainmattresss straight from the warehouse. as a result, we suffered back pains we woke up the next morning. lesson learned.. list down the things that you need. Ü

limited time sobra.. have to go peeps, just dropped by to say hi to everyone. Ü *waves-hand*
this is too much ot already.. pics coming up next (super delayed na i know..can't upload d2 sa ofc)

*haven't done with my supplier ratings.. =(

back to blog..este work! Ü

Finally I’m back to blog all the things that went so fast in three weeks time. I’m now happily married to my friend and my partner for life..Jeff. At last! Days before the wedding are my busiest days. Good thing I was able to leave from work a week before the wedding, all the cramming and pressures are now paid off. We enjoyed our day and so did our family and friends, that’s what we really wanted.

Up to now I keep on saying thank you to all my friends who attended, they made our wedding more memorable. A simple thank you is not enough for those people who have helped us through the preparations and on the wedding day itself. Especially to Geri and Raymond who can no longer back out from the plan of coordinating our wedding. They brought our doves (almost lost) to the church. I can’t imagine how our wedding would be if they did not attend. Grabe super thank you talaga. I must admit, we were super tensed (especially Jeff) while we were waiting outside the reception, looking at our guests waiting to be seated. Hay, I had to let go. I told myself, bahala na sila dun. I should not worry and that everything will be fine in the end. Jeff can’t barely smile on our shoot with Ralph. I’ll post the pics agad. Since I resumed work today, think I’ll squeeze in some time to blog chikas from the shower down to batangas get away.

Commercial break:
I’d like to thank my friends who called to greet me..super touched ako. calling me that day and serving as my wake up alarm :P hehe! Someone even traced where our house is, just to hand me the gift and greet me & Jeff as well, since he cannot attend the event. I can’t imagine I’m that worthy.(drama ba?) wala lang.. I really appreciated the thought, the time and the effort they gave just to greet me. For my friends who didn’t care to stand in front and arrange my trail for the picture taking. For my friend who took the first reading, responsorial psalm and the second reading too! to everyone who were with us, present or not, thank you talaga. I really am grateful for having all of you as my friend Ü

*more to come Ü

bakasyon na!

yeba yeba! my last day today here at work..be back after three weeks yoohoo!!
im now on the last leg of wedding preps.. Ü
im so excited! mixed emotions talaga.. no time for pressure ( i hope).. bahala na si batman.. i just want to see my close friends to be there on the big day.. though may ilan talaga na hindi na makakapunta.. =( wala ng dadagdag please..

hay.. i can't think of anything to say.. =D im just so excited really! =D

tp sabay tayo talon talon! Ü

verde island

one of the things that excites me..
just sharing this link.. love the place.. mala-palawan din hehe! Ü
Jeff found an alternative to Bohol and Palawan..
so excited! =D

breath in.. breath out..

I cannot actually describe how I feel since our wedding is just two weeks away..excited..nervous.. worried..sad at times.. super I can't wait no more.. i feel for geri.. that I do also want these preps to be over.. grabe lang.. it's not that we are not enjoying..but hello? wish there's an easier way at a lower cost too! hehe! =D

I am thankful though that we are going through this stage..getting married gives you mixed emotions to the max! you experience a lot of things.. you're temper is tested to the fullest..wish I have lots of it.. wish I am one of those who can speak without raising their voice if annoyed or irritated..=( good thing Jeff is very soft spoken.. he can speak for me..

17 days to go.. here's my to-do list:

-shoes for me & mame
-pants and shoes for honey
-upgrade of flowers in church - (not yet sure, coz there's a wedding before us on that day)
-entou gowns, will be ready on April 3 pa. - kulitin ko na on March 31 sana ready for fitting.
-wrapping of gifts for entou and PS
-buy chocolates for the souvenirs - meron kame nakitang sale na impt chocs sa robinson's.
-entou flowers - will meet Tet next week for the payment.
-caterer - will meet Irish next week for the final payment.
-musicians - Jeff sent the song list already. waiting for confirmation from Edwin (Velvet Mood Musicale)
-reserve hotel preps.
-emcee - Jeff met Bobby Galang already and got good feedback. Nag-conive naman sila.. Ü

got my gown already..for Mame's gown try ko ulit mag scout. when we got home kasi i found her dress bitin..though okay lang naman.. eh gusto ko mahaba eh.. =(

what else? wala na ko maisip..

I missed my schedule visit to my dentist. haven't been to the parlor. just lik geri, I need to gain weight. wish effective yung mga chinese vitamins (which i haven't bought yet). worse.. some of the invites are still with me. but will send them out this week.. wish I can work 4 hours a day lang.. then receive pay for 8 hours.. hehe! joke!

lot of pressures! i do hope people would understand if we failed to send them invites. we really wanted to see the people who have touched our lives ever since we started on our wedding day.. but then again i hope they understand..for 5 years, its nice to know that we gained friends..if not..we maintained the friends we have.. Ü we can never forget those people who became instruments why Jeff & I started our love story..

hay.. need to rest na.. got a full packed day ahead.

Our prenups pics

prenup2
by annasilaran.

finally got the time to upload these pics.=D we had our shoot last feb 16 at QC Parks & Wildlife, our photographer Ralph Alejandrino suggested that place and we found it great! we enjoyed the shoot and feeling models kame ni Jeff haha! =D ang galing nga ng honey ko, he can execute ung mga request ni ralph hehe! puro one-take lang! =D

by the way i had a trial make-up that day too with Willy Leocania and yes, i booked him already, with no dp! I've known Kuya Willy since I was in college, but I never had the chance to try his services on make-ups. my mom told me that he's good nga..so why not try db? Ü i liked my make-up naman.. tp? tingin mo? haha! very open naman si kuya willy sa gusto kong maging ayos..so i'll take your comments.. basta tamang honest comment uh? hihihi! Ü

gift's for our sponsors

sponsors
by annasilaran.

again.. from serving tray..to fruit basket.. to this picnis basket! Ü actually, in-assume ko na lang na for picnic nga sya..we got this one na since usefull sya dahil sa kanyang cover. and it's very affordable. we bought it in dapitan arcade. =D

souvenir boxes

souvenir boxes
by annasilaran.

we are currently working on our souvenirs. thank goodness we were able to finalize. from native flower vase to rattan mini cart to this hexagon box. at first we were looking for a ceramic token that will be placed in front instead of the ribbon and flower, but to no luck, we settled for the kikay flower hehe! painting the cover was Jeff's idea. wrapping stuff was mine..Ü we found a cheap tule fabric which i wanted talaga as the wrapper. my only concern is that i feel that it's too orangy(?) hindi ba? anyway this will be the finish product. Ü

ei, jeff suggested that we wrap it this way instead.

Our Discovery Weekend

This could be the most important part of our wedding preparation.. or should I say "marriage preparation". Last Feb 3-5 we attended Discovery Weekend and can you just imagine we're going to a retreat and we are fighting on our way there? =P it's funny I know and very immature. Jeff was late for the 5pm call time we agreed on. We left the house at 6:15(?) and we're suppose to be there by 7pm (for the dinner hehe). Good thing we made it on time and got reason to smile for the initial pose for the pictures. Ooops! Warning though for jane.. spoiler din toh! =D

I'm really glad I didn't read Geri's blog entry of their DW, at least Jeff and I are both clueless of what's gonna happen. This is one of the "firsts" that we have shared together.

I have known Jeff for 5 years now and I just realized that I'm missing the chance of appreciating his endearing qualities. Yes I do know that he's loving, fun to be with..etc. and I just asked myself "why do they have to introduce that way?" maybe for us to take some time to recognize the worth of our partner. Usually kasi, we give more attention to the negative side of the person.

With DW we learned the proper way to dialogue, not just talk, but dialogue. It's been a habit for us to talk about things we are arguing about. Khet na pag saraduhan ko pa yan ng pinto, still mag uusap pa rin kme nyan. We realized why our "talks" were unsuccessful, it's because we are not considering the feelings of the other person concerned. Why he acted that way.. why I'm acting like this..just by empathizing pala you'll be able to understand your partner.

I'm very happy that Jeff participated very well, actually mas meaningful pa nga mga love letters nya kesa sa mga letters ko..=D I thought nga matutulog lang yan at mangungulit, but the opposite happened. We weren't able to finish all the dialogues and sharing.. so may mga pending assignments kame kumbaga and yes, the "dialogues" need to continue even after DW.

Nakakahiya pa nga kasi sa last part I cried sa sharing haha! All of a sudden I remembered our college recollection. You just let your emotions go, over the shoulder of a dear friend. And this time, I've let my feelings go, with my partner holding my hands. Not caring of what people will say about me, about us. The important thing is, I have Jeff beside me..who believes in me.

The Lord has always been with us all through out. We admit na we tend to forget HIM pag super okay ang lahat. But HE's the only one who knows us inside out. Parati nga namin prayer.."please help us stay together.." Ü with DW, mas naging aware kame of our responsibilities as Christians.
Thanks to Geri who gave us the idea about Discovery Weekend and to all w@wies who shared all their insights about it.. didn't have the time to chat with fellow w@wies, sina Ade,Rhea & Nap, and others. My roommate si Trina and her partner Allan (na kasundo ni Jeff sa biruan! =D) hehe! I had a great Discovery Weekend. Super enjoy and very meaningful..Ü

"agabalayan dan"

oh i bet most you can't undertand that.. well me too, not until my Lola(Mamang) mentioned that word. It's an Ilocano word for "mamamanhikan sila".. ilocanang hilaw kasi ako.. hehe!

early morning that day, Jeff and I are already together. It was my birthday that day but honestly i wasn't so excited about "my day".. but I was anticipating on what's gonna happen that night. I wanted to cook, but my mom said "no need". kei fine. she'll take care of it na lang daw.. fine ulet. just cleaned the house, my ever famous "magwalis" talent. =D all's set in the afternoon pa lang. we managed to buy groceries pa nga. Jeff bought 3 giant tilapia, giant na kasi when Bryan saw it, he said "Shark!" hahaha! Jeff taught me how to "clean" a fish. kahiya man aminin, yeah hindi po ako marunong nun, buti pa si Jeff..=( funny pa, kasi when I was working on my fish, binabantayan ako ng daddy ko. don't know if he's concerned na i might hurt my fingers or baka mali ang magawa ko..sniff..

anyway, Tito Ben & Tita Norma (Jeff's side) arrived at 7:30. and sila mommy nasa tindahan pa! tama ba yun? Ate Precy & Mang James arrived at 8, they brought all the food (buti na lang) coz Mame didn't had the time na to cook. Everything went out fine. everybody's enjoying the dinner, while I am very satisfied serving them. dakilang alalay ako nun ah? pero im not complaining. Ü hehe.

while the tanders were talking, syempre discussion about the wedding stuffs, agree naman sila since almost okay na lahat ng details. though we will exert more effort convincing them to stay with us sa hotel for the preps. they want kasi na 12nn ng April 8 sila darating sa hotel. though we understand naman na they need to meet the guests/relatives sa mga bahay namin.. pero sana nandun sila sa hotel, kasi gusto namin na maka pag relax naman sila.. eh since ganon nga.. may magagawa ba kme? hay.. baka entou ko na lang ksama ko sa hotel the night before..

im happy that Jeff can call my mom as "Mame" na.. hindi na Ate Tess.. haha! ganon din kay Dade.. tuwang-tuwang nga nanay ko, pag tinatawag syang mame ni Jeff.. ako, mejo shy pa twagin si Ate Precy ng Nanay.. hehe! cguro in time.. Konting background lang.. kasi Jeff's mom and mommy ko are good friends..as in mag kumare. so mas close ako kay Ate Precy as kabarkada. so nung kame na ni Jeff, mejo nahirapan ako mag adjust kasi less "po" ako pag kausap ko sya. buti okay naman..Ü naging magalang naman ako..hehe!

ayun po muna..at tama kayo, tuloy na tuloy na nga and super excited din kme..Ü

pamamanhikan and licensed to marry

yes you read it right, Jeff's family will only do the "pamamanhikan" tomorrow, super later na i know..and I'm excited about it. why? i really don't know! hehe..=D maybe because I'll be the one responsible in organizing the house, since we have Bryan around nakow! good luck talaga sa aken..=D and I'm planning to cook for them.. ehem.. probably I'll ask Mame if she can give some short instructions. yipee! grabe I need to show-off (?) my abilities (tama ba yun? Ü).. i just want them to be comfortable during their stay..aside from the fact that I'm nervous talaga and praying that everything will be okay, like.. hope they would agree or at least won't object to the plans that we have already settled. and that we'll be able to meet their expectations with regards to the wedding details..(sana within the specified guest # pa din kme..hehe!) hmm.. wonder what to cook para ma-tame ang mga oldies haha! =D

and just an update for the preps, may marriage license na kame.. we just have to wait for the marriage banns, kasi on Feb. 22 pa namin makukuha.. anyway, after that complete na kme sa church requirements since we attended the DW last weekend.. and that's another blog entry..=D

saya-saya!!

Monday, January 23.

Since nasa mood pa din mag wedding preps, I took a day off work. Since wala pa mashdo problem sa project ko, we went to Quezon City Hall to complete the requirements for the marriage license. We attended a family planning seminar. Instead of paying for it to be processed asap, we opted to attend the seminar, we’ll learn something from it naman..though mejo kaka antok ung ibang part.. good thing the speaker knows how to strike a joke once in a while, just to check if his audiences are still awake hehe! But mind you, when the speaker was already discussing about the "wet and dry season", I’m a bit surprised because the guys are all ears! As if they can understand everything. As if all of them can really follow on schedules, hehe! Pero nung ang topic is on “things that could make your marriage stronger” na, hay.. hikaban ng hikaban. Pati tuloy ako, hikab din.. haha! =D

While we were in the seminar, I received a text message from our new broker. pasado daw ako sa pre-evaluation ng developer, and that we can pay the full reservation fee na yahoo!!! =D hay, sana tuloy-tuloy na (crossed fingers)

So, at the end of the day.. we filed the application for marriage license na, we’re getting it on Feb. 3 and good news about our house!! Ang saya-saya db? Hihihi Ü
