Caramoan Island Hopping and Adventure

It was a cheap trip. From our calculations, we didn't spend more than P1,500 each. But it was helluva fun!We left at 8 in the morning from CBD to Sabang Port. Because there was no bus or jeepney avalable, we decided to take the van. Settie and I hated it. I hated it more because I ended up vomiting my guts out. No, it wasn't even a long trip. It was a 1-1/2 hour ride. The driver was forced to open the van's windows because of the stench. I'm not...

Paige's 3rd Birthday

Paige's 3rd birthday was a blast. It was a fun day. Too bad, she was grumpy the whole day, and I don't think she will remember it as vividly as I would. Anyway, here are short clips of that day.We went skinny dipping. It was really funny. Jinx, Tinay really made me proud. She actually went nekkid! You would have laughed your ass off. Erbe took our pictures. His reaction was hilarious. Anyway, this is one of the reasons I love him - he never fails...

Talking about Trains and Poems

I used to write poems. I think I wrote poems for every meaningful person in my life.My sister sent me this via email. I knew I wrote this, but I couldn't place for whom until after I was reading halfway through.Ah yes, Mr. Train -- the guy I remember every time I'd hear the train whistle blows.He was my huge, huge crush in college - and I was friends with him as well.He's married now. We used to talk on the phone 'til the wee hours in the morning.His...

Happy Birthday Paige!

Earlier this evening, I was trying to get some sleep with my daughter snuggled closely beside me. Her papa was cooking some of the dishes that we are going to bring tomorrow. And she was forced to lie next to me, willing herself to sleep as well because I didn't have the energy to play. I was awake for 19 hours already and I needed to sleep badly.I could hear her chattering though, and sometimes, I'd mumble an incoherent reply.She'd asked, "Mama,...

Sassy and Almost Three

Earlier this morning, Paige kept asking for us to assist her in the bathroom. I was working, so her papa had no choice, but to go with her.He'd come back every time complaining that she was lying.When Erbe left to go downtown, I had no choice, but to accompany her to the bathroom when she once again said that she wanted to poo-poo.And once again, she was lying. After several minutes she once again asked to go to the bathroom, exasperated, I threatened,...

One Off the To-Do List

Back in college, I wanted to get hair highlights, but I didn't like how it looked in many people. Bessie dissuaded me from doing so. But all these years, I wanted to get it, so I finally did. It feels good.Tattoo and curly hair is up next.Pretty soon enough, I'd get to the skydiving part.I swear! The contraption with all the hair sticking out looks weird, funny and downright nasty!See???There! That's how it looks like now....
