it was Exactly ONE YEAR ago Today....


Our First Date. Monday. We watched All My Life (Kristine Hermosa and Aga Muhlach).

kwento muna..

Friday was the opening of the Bowling tournament in the company. Since his division and ours have fewer members than those of the other divisions, we were grouped together under the Mixed Team.

Monday, syempre kwentuhan about the opening. He was one of the best players in the company. Nagka chikahan sa phone.. then we ended up going out.

Ako pa nga ata ang nag invite! oh well. the invite was made purely in the spirit of fun.

well, after that, Monday became our movie day.. we just kept on going out.. and here we are now. on our way to the rest of our lives... :-)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

i will be going to Bermuda as soon as my Work Permit comes through, sometime this june/ july.

i will be leaving Olie here in the Philippines.

i don't know if our wedding plans will push through as planned. (but that's my first agenda when i get to my employer.. to ask if i can take a leave, even for just the week of the wedding..)

but i will marry Olie.. it may not happen on the 18th of February 2006.. but someday... as God has planned it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

to olie, a hallmark card that says:

A small wedding
in the wild meadow
will be enough
if you are there with me.

but i am still leaving. hahaha..

coz Olie will joining me on the Pink Beach as soon as he can!!!

and you know, it may be enough for me.. but we still have to think of our future kids' future.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

bebe, i love you.

tet hagape and write impression

tet hagape

we met with tet hagape last saturday. ok naman. mura talga ang rates nya. on designs naman, i picked some designs from the magazines i have before going there so not much consultation on that regard. i chose simple designs with mostly ribbons or sashes as embellishments.

i'd like to consult first with cecilio abad before finalizing anything with tet. maybe tonight.

write impression

they have a lot of designs to choose from and can even customize designs. i found them a tad expensive but i dont have any other printers to compare their rate yet. i'll be checking out the others - Amis, Unifair and Printed Matter to get a better idea.

more than a bride

havent posted in a while.

got no wedprep update.

stopped being a bride. at least for a while. busy with other stuff. tamad with wedding stuff.. hahaha.

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

i was having lunch with olie kanina. sumunod lang sya from the office. i was early coz i came from an exam. it was a wonderful feeling talga.. na nka set na yun food and yun drinks nya. tapos pag upo nya ok na. parang iba lang. :-)

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

health update: got no stones in the gall bladder pala.

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

been busy flunking exams.. im still crossing my fingers. definitely hindi syento yun. goal ko pa naman but i was too busy and tamad to study over the weekend. hmmm..

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

more than a bride. i am also an employee. but here i am acting like a child. i haven't been performing. i'm always absent.

when will i grow up? :-(

am sure my boss is waiting...

unwanted :-(

i've been feelin depressed and sad lately, sulking from the way olie has been treating me. IMO, things should be different.

but now, we have other concerns.

i consulted with our company physician.. i have to have an ultrasound of the liver, gall bladder area.. i do hope its nothing serious. i wish the pain would go away with just the help of pain relievers.

there are times i wish i were dead. or just gone. be not in a certain situation.

i've never thought i'd have a health problem.

i know that there are a lot of things i want to do and sometimes i feel hopeless.. that i will never get to do them in this lifetime.

i'm so glad i visited aggie's site.. i came across a website which can help me define and even achieve the things i want to do.. i do thank the person behind the 43 things site..

i hope i get to do each on my list.. something to look forward to each day.

reflections made: none. hehehe. relax lang. :-)
