About Me

My photo
I am a restless individual. I can't be in something for too long. At some point, I'll be bored. A feeling I'm not comfortable hanging around with. I've always wanted to be a writer. But I can't write as often as I want. And sometimes, words are not that good to me when I need them to be. So now, I tell my story through my photographs. I have a secret love affair with photography. There are things that are just best seen than told. I am independent. I don't appreciate people influencing or telling me what to do/say. I can decide and speak for myself, thank you. I am a traveler. I am constantly somewhere else, either in reality or in fantasy.

My parent's 28th

Feb. 11, 1980, my folks wed at Queen of Peace Church. Reception followed at Sugarland Hotel.

L-R : My Folks. With my grandparents. with their ninongs and ninangs.

Feb. 11, 2008. We were at the same church where my folks were married. we actually hear mass there regularly. and in the middle of it, my mom leaned on me and said, they were married on the same day, a monday, that is. she was probably feeling nostalgic. i just don't know what was she thinking.

Then we went to rob to meet up with my sister, who was coming from work at Silay. We saw there my sister's friend, Shiela's parents. we chatted for awhile about our trip to the US. Shiela is in Rockfort, Illinios. Waiting to meet us at New York or we'll come visit her there.

Then we head out to Pepe's, Sorrento. It's my sister's and my favorite. Cozy (except of on weekends where it is jampacked by party people). Love the food. I order only
one dish, Salpicao with mashed potatoes. the only thing i don't like about the place is their tables. parang cafeteria-ish. nevertheless, we keep on coming back there as often as we can. I didn't take pictures of the resto though. dami kasing tao. dyahe. But i nerved up for some family pix. sayang naman. important day, tapos walang pic? won't allow that to happen!

L-R : BabyBAck ribs. Salpicao.




L-R : mom and dad; karen, mao and brandon; me and mom and dad; with brandon


After the dinner, he headed home. we had dessert. mao bought a cake for them. i was telling mom to buy a candle and blow on their 28th anniv. but we forgot so she recycled some candle she found in the drawer.



L-R : Cake Calea; Cake with candle; Mom and dad with the cake

We goofed around some more by cam whoring. well, my parents did. and mom clearly enjoying it as she directs dad to pose like it was their wedding day. without a word, my dad just followed. he went along with my mom shrieking with glee. we had such a good time!








We capped off the night by gathering in front of the tv and watch lobo. +)

happily buzzed


Feb. 9, 2008. the first time of the year our groupies went out again! imagine that?! of course, tricia and i were in our bubble again! we talked half of the night away! inban and manuel again begging 5mins. of our time! it was fun! we just had a lot of updates and gossip to share with each other. despite the fact that we do text quite often. some stories aren't just fit for texting.

Attendance was almost complete. The usuals are present though.



L-R: Carmela, Paolo, Moi, Tricia, Connie, Lori, Dette, Judge, Allan, Manuel and Inban.

It's always fun hanging out with these guys! we have so much to talk about! kahit showbiz nga eh! fun! fun! fun!

We planned on going to patag this weekend. the place where we found out we have so much in common with each other. haha! i hope it pushes through! it has to be! by monday, i'll be leaving for manila already eh!

Laid Back

one of the things we have tried doing, twice now, is going to Cafe Bobs, eating and accessing their wi-fi. It's actually for Mao, my brother-in-law. We give way to him to do all the searches and make his shopping list. It just gets longer and more expensive. Most of it my sister considers impractical things to buy. It's spousal affair so i just smile at them while my sister discourages him from buying what he wants. And my brother-in-law acting as if he hasn't heard anything. Haha!





L-R: Bob's Frappucino (check out their logo, kinda looks like starbucks, u think?);
salami pizza; bob's deli entrance



L-R: Mao busy surfing; Karen on a pose; Brandon scarring the fish


after 2 hours or so:
L-R: Mao still surfing the net; Karen and Brandon for a pose;
moi getting water for everybody


My sister and I will be going on a trip. Less than two weeks to go and we're off to the US of A. Feb 22 is our flight schedule via Northwest Airlines. We'll go to Long Beach, California first then fly to New York after a week and a half then home to the PI March 23.

That's why Mao has been surfing like crazy. He's making a list of what we'll buy for him. So we'll see if he can actually come up with a final shopping list!

i finally decided to revive this blog site! i have been thinking of writing again, ever since the year has started. kaso lang i don't know what to write about! most of the time i'm stuck here at home, doing nothing. screaming boring! so why blog about my pathetic life diba?

i used to write a lot. some of the poems here were composed during my college years. i still have a notebook of my compositions. funny, i read them again last time. puro emote! elk! hahaha!

i have been thinking of taking pictures around the city too. just to show friends what bacolod looks like. it's not as probincya as they are probably thinking.. but i am just soooo tamad to do so. hehehe

i drove for mom the other to her parent's house, my mom's sister who lives in the same subdivision said ang puting puti ko daw ngayon. sabi ko, pano ba naman, i don't go out of the house na.haha!

see? i am realizing now that i need to go out! good thing my sissy's shift is in the morning, so pag hapon she's here at home. i will drag her out of the house for some chillin' time! im soooo tamad din to go malling. liit lang ng malls dito eh and shops are of course limited. not much fun. so we'll probably be at cafe bob's later.

yey! i shall blog more regularly now. that's my chinese new year's resolution! ;)
