lolaaaaa loung! love u! -cyd

... hoping for a second one.

i had my dose of cyd-i-ness during the long weekend... we were there to celebrate his 3rd birthday... i always feel good each time he would ask for me to sleep with him or just the mere act of looking for me makes me feel so loved. cyd is in a stage where each action he makes seems to be so endearing... it seems so hard to say bye to

cyd's birthday weekend para kay lola nanay! more photos to come!

meet my younger brother. he is one of the many reasons why all soul's day is being celebrated in the family. he died in 2003. his death tore my family's heart into pieces...  it took us a while to fully accept that he's no longer with us... and each time we would remember him and the times he had spent with us, it would somehow "reopen" the wounds that i thought has already healed. i pray for tuyom's soul. i pray for auntie ting's soul.... for my lola ling, lola doning, lolo cards, lola miner, lolo jose... and a lot more. just guide us while you are planes away from us.

All around me, I see what weakness has made Too much tomorrow, I think Ill take all today Am I a poison, am I a thorn in the side Am I a picture perfect subject tonight And I dont need nobody And I dont need the weight of words To find a way to crash on through And I dont need nobody And I just need to learn the depth Or doubt of faith to fall into Here I slumber to awaken my daze I find convenience in this savior I save Am I a prison, am I a source of dire news Am I a picture perfect reason for you And I dont need nobody And I dont need the weight of words To find a way to crash on through I dont need nobody And I just need to learn the depth Or doubt of faith to fall into In this time of substitute Its my needs Ive answered to All the while And all the hope that I invest Turns to signals of distress All the while I dont need nobody And I dont need the weight of words To find a way to crash on through And I dont need nobody I just need to learn the depth Or doubt of faith to fal...

ok. it was my first time to attend the national selection committee... and two of my nominees were finalists - bonsol and olea. few of the judges i heart are: sandy prieto-romualdez, tessa prieto-valdez, tessie sy-coson, fernando zobel de ayala, and felipe gozun... why i heart them? because they are pretty quite intelligent and behind the serious stance of the 5 are outrageously funny beings...FZA, tessa and sandy wanted bonsol to win. while tessie sy has reservations because she has other bet. gozun on the other hand wanted to have the powerful hand in the decision-making since a possible tie may happen. hihihi!  scenario A: darwin yu: oh, please don't call me professor, since i am not calling you bankers... (laughter) mr. gozun: oh, i am charles... (some laughter) --- catch: if he is darwin, then gozun is charles - the evolution theory huh?! scene B: tessa p.: is that his house (pointing at the fishpens of a nominee) FZA: no, it's a fishpen the sisters, they look opposite fro...

not now. never. --- i just need to pause and clear my thoughts. 

:) work work work sa gitna na bagyo at baha! the show must go on kahit madaming baggages.

in Legazpi, Albay

indeed it was another bicol express visit. :) this time, i flew in naga and flew out of  legazpi. but in between i was able to see the CWC - camsur watersports complex... too bad i was not ready for the CWC visit... but hey, atleast i know now the budgetary requirements. :) then from there, we went to sorsogon, that same day... i could not believe that i had fun with the company. i have reached the point where i no longer enjoy out of town work. and yes, there's a lot to discover about bicol. funny coz the world is indeed small - let's talk about six degrees of separation. :) hahaha! one of the officers from an MFI headoffice (whom i met in naga on monday) was a college roommate's crush. hehe! then, one of my crushes in college is already a lawyer in sorsogon (where his family is quite kilala)... and yeah, i think the province is an APO-infested province. ohhkayyy - can't wait till shannie's wedding! :P hehe!

My first few days in MCPI included my Discovery Suites experience with the Drake Room. view here: http://tryx.multiply.com/photos/album/34/at_discovery_suites#photo=17 I instantly fell inlove with the venue - it became one of my favorites. I also fell inlove with their sofa set. :D

ok... i am excited for the new season!!!

during the latter part of  2001, maria theresa carlson was a headline. her husband's battery brought attention to the community. it was sensational. to contradict all of her allegations against her husband, the children spoke against their mother. in the end, carlson committed suicide. ruby rose's case could be an issue of VAW too... her 7 year old daughter talked about her disposition despite her mom's death. today, another sensational violence against women issue is presented before us - the che tsiongson case. her 17 year old daughter has spoken (or written) before the media... just look for the patterns --> children negating their mothers' allegations probably because these children are under the wings of their fathers... oh well... one's psyche is hard to explain. it is much harder when one is stuck within the cycle of violence. i feel sorry for the women being beaten. much more sorry for the children who could not assert their inner power. - their stories...

i hate being hostile and i have perfect such masterpiece when i am with you.i wanted to bring back the old me... but it seems that old me has turned bitter and sour towards you. i hate it more when you would demand something from us instead of asking favors - - when you would shout instead of saying it gently. just because we did not get to do things the way you wanted to be, that doesn't mean we're stupid... ha!  we conspired, we've conspired and we will continue conspiring... we've learned the hard way. and we've learned it from the best - YOU!

and his pa cuteness! pero cute din talaga tong batang to! :) can't wait for theo to call me aunt!

i am relieved because - Ms. Chona will be around for SPM (yehey!).  i am supposed to "handle" the program... but i am hesitant. because - my heart does not feel like doing it. sad nga eh, because i am becoming less creative and losing passion on things related to SPM.  bad sign? INDEED!  ----

ok. i am in love with chuck. weird. weird. coz i have not really felt like this kind of obsession with nate before.  but with chuck... i am like super duper pathetic! :) ok - he's geeky way is so ahmmmmmm cute. i mean, wish there are a lot of geeks who are as hot as him. hehehe! (hehe paging jayjay!  )

theo has intestinal malrotation ...  please just pray for him... we need your prayers -- we want him to overcome this. theo has been a survivor since birth, when he was born, he has gone through a lot health-wise.  just join us that he will be fine - and that he will grow up to be a fine and healthy baby boy! :)

last saturday was theo's dedication. theo is so inchik! :) hehehe! buti na lang caloi brought his friend's slr - some of the photos were taken by him and ung iba naman ako! :)

kids are naturally sweet... what i love with my 3 year old cousin and nephew most is when from out of nowhere they would kiss you or hug you...  hmmmm... and you just can't resist when they do lambing you...  there was this one saturday when my nephew woke me up just to ask for milk...  "aunt, milk..." or last night when he said that i should not leave since i have to meet highschool friends... "wag alis aunt..."   oh, the latter - i did leave but i asked permission from him properly so that he will not get the notion that i am deceiving him. i explained to him why i have to leave but promised to be with him in the morning...  and yeah, we had a wet and fun afternoon... :)

with the two most(est)s TITA! :)

i hate attending burials! it just reminds me of the pain of missing someone for the rest of your life.

with my cousin almeera -- she is growing to be pretty -- even prettier than me.
