Panaginip

"Napanaginipan kita. Ang ganda ng office pero hindi dito, tapos puro foreigners kasama mo."


Ang unang pumasok sa isip ko noon "Ah, baka magte-training ako abroad". Hindi ko nakalimutan ang panaginip ni Abby, dati kong kasama sa Shell. Nakakatuwa isipin na pagkalipas ng ilang taon, at sino ang mag-aakala, na ito ay magkakatotoo. Yun nga lang, ako ang banyaga at hindi ang mgakasama ko :-)


=======================================


Nagising ako sa kaluskos ng mga ibon sa may bubungan. Tinignan ko ang oras at nang makita kong maaga pa, pinikit ko muli ang mga mata ko. Maya maya ay may naririnig ako mula sa labas na nagsasalita ng ingles. Sandali akong napa-isip at nagtaka. Pagkalipas ng ilang minuto, napagtanto ko na hindi ito isang panaginip. Oo nga pala, nasa Australia ako :-)

Hands

It paid off! Hubby passed his second CPA subject
with a grade of "C".
I am so proud of you, Dy! I know that career
development is one of the various reasons that you
are giving your best and sacrifices for this endeavour.
May God bless the work of your hands.

It was my first time to put color on my little fingernails.
Bagay ba? hihi
Oh how I love holding your hand..

Fantastic four!

I always read Jenn Punzalan's blog. I really admire the way they bring up their kids. By reading her blog, I am learning few tips on parenting and I am inspired to be a good, responsible and godly parent.

When I watched this video, parang gusto ko rin ng four kids.. Dy, what do you think?? :))

-----------------------------------

Included in the documentation that we need to submit is our history. Here's a bit of my 7 pages love story :-)

Boracay has one of the beautiful sunsets in the world. As it was not our first time here, from the usual viewing of the sunset on the beach, Cesar hired a boat to witness it while sailing the sea. Still, at that time, I do not have an idea of what’s going to happen. We have 3 companions in the boat, the one who maneuvers the sails, his assistant and another assistant to take photos. When we reached the spot, Cesar told the boatman to stop. The moment has finally arrived. Cesar took out the ring and asked, “Pam, will you marry me?” I couldn’t speak and had a sudden flashback from the day we first met and what we have gone through. This is it! I said YES. On January 10, 2010 at 5:55 pm, we were engaged. On that day, I thought that we were going to witness one of the beautiful sunsets, but it was the sunset that witnessed a sweet memorable marriage proposal.

Bruises

while watching glee this morning, louie sat beside me. then i touched his face and softly massage his head not knowingly that he will attack me. i don't understand what triggered him to do that because i always do it and he is calm. whatever he was thinking, i suppose it was not intenional to hurt me. i got bruises. with his two hands and two feet, he grabbed my right hand, then locked his two feet so i won't be able to move the upper part of my hand, scrabbled his nails and tried to bit me. ouch!!! i felt the pain when he released my hand. i didn't scold at him. this was not the first time, i know the wounds will suddenly heal..i saw louie peacefully sleeping at the corner. i smiled. though he brought me physical hurt, he is still our joy. hindi ko kaya magalit.

since last week, i always check my yahoo account as i am waiting for an important email. two weeks have passed, still no advise. nalulungkot ako..i played the hillsong dvd and sing songs of praise to him. i trust his timing..and will keep on praying and waiting..praying and waiting..i fell asleep again and woke up late. eto na naman ang aking struggle - to go or not to go to work. since it is my holiday naman tomorrow, i decided to go. while traveling to work, i can't help myself not to think about the thing that i am waiting..then i received a note. the message was like louie's scratches on my hand. ang sakit..i went to the ladies room to wipe my tears away. lilipas din 'to. nasaktan ako pero hindi ako galit. hindi ko kaya. walang nagbago, i still love the person.

this made me realize how god loves me unconditionally. no matter how many times i hurt him because of my sins, his steadfast love never ceases; his mercies never come to an end and they are new every morning (lamentations 3:22-23). i am still his daughter and he is my heavenly father.

enough for today..tomorrow is another day and i am excited to my date with my two mamas :-)

Dialogue

me: i love you
dy: i love you too
me: i love you 3 (times a day)
dy: i love you 4ever

ahhhh...ka-blag!! :-)

Salamat, Tatay

When I

Look into those bright eyes

So young
Always so ready to run
Then I
See your change when fun subsides
And new colors start to arise
There's a hidden picture
That wasn't seen outside

When you run, don't tire
Keep on reaching, higher
Even when the pain and trouble bring you down, sometimes
I will see you through
I'm forever right here with you
Even when you feel you don't need me around

I will be your friend, forever
I will be your one, big brother
Even when I see you fall
I will be your father

When I hear you call

When I hear you call

I miss you so

Wherever Cesar is, i am home

dy, you are one best decision i have ever made in my life. i love you more!

Proverbs 31:30

charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the lord is to be praised.

how you see me is more important than what others say about me. let me be your woman and make me beautiful from inside out.

While i'm waiting..

i am injecting new regimes to my routine.

-starting next week, i am going to the gym!! wohoo!! time to burn fats and calories in a natural way. (i am hearing hubby's yahoos and wohoos!! haha!). actually, i have already started this fitness thing four sundays ago. inspired by jen's enthusiasm (hnaks!), my usual sunday turned out to be my fitness day! that is both physical (brisk walking in the morning) and spiritual (church service in the afternoon). the first two sundays, we did brisk walking in greenhills and ccp. then two sundays ago, jen, manj and i enjoyed biking at quezon city circle (not to mention our sleepover, i mean movie marathon at jen's place using her laptop and projector. so we were like watching in a movie house. cool!!). our next stop is UP diliman (if it's not raining on sunday).

mangita!! bilis!! haha!

antok na si manj!

-in august, i will get a student license so i can have my driving lessons already and obtain a non-pro license. so that i can drive hubby around whenever we have our vacation in manila :-)

I heart my new twitter background

tweet! tweet!

Long hair is back!

i just notice that my hair is already long. when i was in college, i decided to keep it short and since then i have been bold to experiment different hairstyles. because i am inspired to have it curled, i haven't cut it since february. i know that it is not too long yet but for a gal who's always been short-haired like me, it is something . but i will not curl my hair anymore and will make it stay that way. its simplicity reflects my personality and i look mature with my hair now (naks! tama ba dy? ahihi).

Let go and let God

i suddenly remember my multiply account and visited it. look what i have written 2 years ago..

when god writes your love story

in august 2008, i have made a decision that has a significant influence in my life now, that is to give god the pen and let him write my love story. and the rest was HIStory.

I was so aware of the fact that it was God who was leading each step, guiding each conversation, painting each sunset, and standing over us with a smile. The cheap, imitation romance I'd known before simply could not be compared to this new kind of love I had discovered. I was daily amazed that I had come from a place of heartbreak, confusion, and compromise in relationships, to a dream come true. I had discovered a kind of divine love that can't even be found in the fairy tales, simply by giving God the pen of my life's story and allowing Him to write each chapter. He was interested in this part of my life. He did have a plan! And He has one for you, too.

God did it to eric and leslie. He did it to me and cesar.

And He has one for you, too.

it all begins with a decision.

let go..and let God.

Happy 1st!

oh oh! almost forgot to greet my blog a Happy 1st Birthday!! cheers to all the wonderful and good ol' memories :)

looking forward to another year to share you my funny, memorable, friendship, family, love, faith, (now) married life, hubby & wifey, and anything-under-the-sun stories.


i just love being me in my room.

in a while in a word
every moment now returns
for a while seen or heard
how each memory softly burns
facing you who brings me new tomorrows
i thank God for yesterdays
how they led me to this very hour
how they led me to this place.

every touch every smile
you have given me in care
keep in heart always i'll
now be treasuring everywhere
and if life should cime to just one question
do i hold this moment true
no trace of sadness always with gladness
i do.

now a song that speaks of now and ever
beckons me to someone new
unexpected unexplored unseen
filled with promise coming through.

in a while in a word
you and i forever change
love so clear never blurred
has me feeling wondrous strange
and if life should come to just one question
do i face each moment true
no trace of sadness always with gladness
i do.

never with sadness
always with gladness
I DO.

Yellow

by coldplay.

song facts: Lead singer Chris Martin has said that the lyrics are about being devoted to someone, wanting to do anything for them - writing a song for them, swimming across the sea for them and so on. (Adam - Sussex, England).

"Yellow" is a term that can mean cowardly or afraid. From this standpoint, the singer could be afraid and nervous to show his love, until he "ran across" and "jumped across" for her. He finally got the nerve to express his love. (Stefan - Winona, MN) -- the exact description of cesar's feelings over a year ago. woot woot!!
