Relievers

i do not feel well today..

reliever #1
with the help of painkiller (my bestfriend for soo many years!), it somehow ease the ache that i am suffering from for almost every month. though i feel weak physically, duty calls, reports need to be submitted.

reliever #2
an overseas call. just to check if i have taken my medicines yet. (thank you!)

reliever #3
these simple notes are enough to make my day better..

from Sedicka, counterpart from South Africa:

Thanks Pam for doing this earlier...really appreciate everything you have done for me.

from Glynnis, AP Manager of South Africa:

Hi Pamela,
Thanks! Will do.
How are you doing? You must please forgive me for not having "spent any time with you". You can well imagine how hectically busy we are since go-live. I promise to make it up to you when things have calmed down. :-)
Anyway, keep well. Hopefully I'll be in touch with you rather sooner than later!
Regards!
Glyn

**so sweet of you, glyn! :-)

Miracles

13 For you created my inmost being;

you knit me together in my mother's womb.

14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;

your works are wonderful,

I know that full well.

15 My frame was not hidden from you

when I was made in the secret place.

When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,

16 your eyes saw my unformed body.

All the days ordained for me were written in your book

before one of them came to be.

psalm 139:13-16

Miracle 1

she is so fragile.. my college friend gave birth to a 2 lbs baby girl. on that day, she never expected that she will give birth already. after her regular check-up at st lukes hospital, the doctor asked for her OB's mobile number. "kailangan mo ng manganak ngayon. hindi na nag-wowork yung ibang system mo that give nourishment to the baby. if hindi pa mailabas today, there is a possibility na mamatay ung baby sa loob."

but she is only 8 months old..

it was holy week. her OB will be on an out of the country holiday and her flight is scheduled on that same day. God is good! her OB is still in manila! she immediately went to st lukes hospital (all the way from marikina) after she received the call.

we prayed.. believing that God is in control.

she's indeed a miracle baby. they named her Asaph (God accummulated) Elisha (God is my salvation).



asaph turned one on march 19, 2009..my inaanak is a testament of God's goodness and faithfulness in us. here are some pictures of elisha which i got from her mommy (she is such an adorable little girl). we love you, asaph elisha!!






Miracle 2

she is taking "halamang gamot" for a week. she already have two boys and doesn't want to have another one..but then, she realized that what she is doing is not right and not pleasing to God.

she prayed, "lord, patawarin mo po ako. please make her normal. sana walang side effect ung mga gamot na ininom ko. kahit na po kamuka sya ng tatay nya basta po normal." (i love the last part hehe)

on november 25, she gave birth to her third child. the baby is normal..and lovely :-)

she kept the story to herself. but not until her only daughter's 18th birthday..to make the long story short, by God's grace, the daughter released forgiveness to her mom.

God heard the mother's prayer...even the last part! kamuka nga ng tatay nya :D

Ma, mahal na mahal kita..maraming salamat!

"lord, thank you for asaph's life. thank you for my life. there is a reason why we are here today. may your good purpose be fulfilled in our lives. and may our lives be a reflection of you. be glorified. amen."

Wish

tadaa!!! and here's my birthday and christmas wish...

Im yours

there's no need to complicate
our time is short
this is our fate..

salamat tatay for your beautiful and wonderful creations.

Just for laughs

cheesy lines -- super aliw!! :-) here are some winner pick-up lines which i got from an application in fb:

nasan ka kagabi? bakit wala ka sa panaginip ko?

sweswertihin ka sa pagibig ngayong taon, pag naging akin ka.

aanhin pa ang gravity? kung lagi akong nahuhulog sa'yo.

mabilis ka siguro sa mga puzzle noh? kasi kakasimula pa lang ng araw ko, pero nabuo mo na agad...

para kang pimple.. pinipilit kitang tanggalin kaso nasasaktan ako.

may mmda ba rito? kasi nagkabanggaan puso natin!

siguro wala kang payong... inulan ka kasi ng kagandahan..

kung ako ay tae... inidoro ka naman.. and i cant stop falling for you.

me lisensya ka ba? coz you're driving me crazy!

kung posporo ka at posporo din ako, eh di MATCH tayo.

maging cactus ka man.. handa akong masaktan, mayakap ka lang..

masasabi mo bang BOBO ako kung IKAW lang LAMAN ng UTAK ko?

pwede ba tayong magpapicture? because i want to show Santa exactly what i want for christmas!

nung mahalin kita.....daig ko pa ang na traffic sa edsa......i can't move on....

I hate to say this but... You are like my underwear... coz i can't last a day without you!

meralco ka ba? pag ngumiti ka kasi may spark.

pag namatay ba ako iiyak ka? kasi ngayon pa lang patay na patay na ako sayo.

smile! :-)

Sa aking kahiramang suklay

lucky
by jason mraz feat. colbie caillat

do you hear me,
i'm talking to you
across the water across the deep blue ocean
under the open sky oh my, baby i'm trying
boy i hear you in my dreams
i feel your whisper across the sea
i keep you with me in my heart
you make it easier when life gets hard

i'm lucky i'm in love with my best friend
lucky to have been where i have been
lucky to be coming home again

they don't know how long it takes
waiting for a love like this
every time we say goodbye
i wish we had one more kiss
i'll wait for you i promise you, i will

i'm lucky i'm in love with my best friend
lucky to have been where i have been
lucky to be coming home again
i'm lucky we're in love in every way
lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
lucky to be coming home someday

and so i'm sailing through the sea
to an island where we'll meet
you'll hear the music fill the air
i'll put a flower in your hair
though the breezes through the trees
move so pretty you're all i see
as the world keeps spinning round
you hold me right here right now


i'm lucky i'm in love with my best friend
lucky to have been where i have been
lucky to be coming home again
i'm lucky we're in love in every way
lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
lucky to be coming home someday

Meet the (foster) parents

finally..we had a wonderful and fun dinner with the diolazo's. while watching vhong navarro's supahpapalicious, ate ems cheerfully tell the story about their snowy mountain vacation with cesar. "ang panget panget mo!" haha!! you are so funny, ate ems :-)

we had pizza and chicken for dinner and shared together for dessert the ref cake that i made. and they liked it! yipee!

kuya jun and ate ems took us a ride back home. we passed by to a near park where, according to ate ems, is a very romantic place to spend a date. "o di ba, romantic dito!" *wink*

"thank you, father, for this family. bless them. amen."

kuya jun, caloy, myself, ate ems, camille

cesar and pam with the diolazo's
