Brutus B-day

April fools day was Brutus b-day. Hey, he joked that he'll treat us to Manila Hotel. :) Turns out - it's just a KFC Bucket Meal hehehe. Still stingy as ever this guy.
Why is it that when my mom makes sermon, I get angry but when Brutus makes sermon, I was smiley and laughing. I feel he's kinda "Mr. Bean-ish" kasi eh but actually he's a very responsible retired US employee.
We thought he was kinda dying before, but he survived by drinking a "miracle" water from this Cav healer. He likes to walk a lot and watch that damn show "Wowowee." Imagine, if he went to that Wowowee stampede, I might have to hunt down Willy R and kill him myself. He says I'm not like him... oh but I think I am, in some ways.
I'm sort of introvert-extrovert rolled into one, hehehe.
Anyways, I'm still the fave daughter.
Happy b-day, dad. :)

Lolo @ Sta Lucia

Well, bumabawi daw after 2 mos hiatus, I went to see lolo and CPMP mall concert @ Sta Lucia. Nice mall, at least malamig na. hehehe. :) I knew this mall coz I used to work not far from here 3 yrs ago.
I'm glad I went there coz I bought great HP stickers. hehehe. :) Lolo and Dew Anne did their own cp accessories shopping. I met their cuz. Lolo sang 2 songs. Then I hitched asual.. only this time I didn't find myself in my station but in the rehearsal. Parang gig na rin. I enjoyed it. Iba talaga si Sir! :) Kaya 4 lyf na friend ko na sya talaga. Nagwawala na si lolo in singing pero galing pa rin. Hayan, nakabawi na me, 3x meet in March, that's enough, I am grounded. hehehe :) Grounded but very happy. :)

Lolo @ Ever

Lolo guested at this very hot mall Ever. It was a CPMP mall concert and as an ambassador, he had to be there. After a long time, he finally had a mall guesting ( a morning "miracle" show, hehe).
He sang only 2 songs, then I finally talked to him ( after 2 mos). He showed me his new hi-tech I-Pod. We had a bit of catching up as to what's new with my friend. Dew-Anne is still nice as ever. I'm happy for her, she's starting her own band. Matutuwa ang daddy nila in heaven. I'm sure kaya rin nya ang singing style ni Nina. She's also sexy rin naman.
I get to hitch with them up to my station. Dunno why I had to be so dyahe yesternight, maybe coz of the long gap. Now I'm so kapal na. hehehe. :) Very much at eased with the royal siblings. :)

Starkids Grad/ Virgin Cafe

My star kids finally graduated on the 25th. I am really gonna miss them for this summer. But they'll be back this June of course.
This time I wasn't the emcee anymore. It's Cecil's turn. She was really agitated coz she lost her long speech cards. But at least we finished the program early. haha! :)We joked that maybe Tom Cruise burned her 4 page-script, hehehe.
Venus and son Jedi were there. We're so surprised she's preggy again so she can't make a comeback. Joy Mars wore a sexy slit in her skrt for her papa hehehe. There's the sexy moms Shiela and Laurence, who won Parent of the Year awards.
The first graders (starkids) sang " Mga Anghel na Walang Langit." They look like loveteam pairs: Ara-Michael, Cj-Marian. Ef was absent, 'still sick. I am really gonna miss them. They improved so much. They became serious star kids would you believe. They think and act like 25-year olds.
Sometimes I feel they mirror me or they imitated me. They are serious in their studies, they work fast and they knew when to take a break. Gosh, they are so responsible for their age. Mini- me's talaga. When I first handled them, they are just running around the room and playing. Ef didn't even wanna enter the room. But later on, they started going to Gakko real early.
The Second Graders ( Starkids Lireo) were ok but the starboys are so pasaway. They are really a challenge in my everyday morning work. The girls were so smart and serious too. I lost 3 starkids when they left Gakko but I gained one returnee. They all sang "I will always love you" (Nina) with Jean and Julie (loveteam) fronting up the vocals ala Richard-Angel. The rest did back-up vocals.
The real grad (pre-elem starkids) sang an 90's song by Bette MIdler I think. Of course, we gave out some awards to these kids. Julie and Michael were 1st, Ara and Ricco were 2nd, Marian and Czarina were 3rd in Graders 1 & 2. The Etherian kids each sang a solo number. The Hathoria kids did ballroom dancing to the tune of "Dancing Queen."
After Grad came the biglaan G-mik. (enter Tom Cruise: May lakad pa kayong iba?! The 3 of us : (in our minds) Pakialam mo sir?!" :)
I dragged Ces and Ghen to Virgin Cafe. Malen was in Puerto G so she can't come. I haven't seen lolo in 2 mos. We missed him na rin. We're so glad to see and hear the set of lolo and Nina with Kuya Nyoy. We enjoyed it so much while eating virgin fries, hehehe. I'm so amazed Ces can eat choc. cake in the wee hrs of the morning. Nahawa na ata sa sweetness of Nina and Nyoy. But she didn't eat the cherry so I pop it in my mouth together with the fries, haha! We didn't drink, pa-good girls daw coz we're "too" young pa. Anyways, we went home na rin. I just texted lolo and he replied. We got dyahe, hehehe. Plus I'm low batt! :)

Sam more for the last time

For my foto island friends who sponsored Mr. Milby and for my other friends, I just went there to unwind. It's in our mall this time, so I thought I'd see the other relatives of Mr. Milby in Bul. I met nice girls Bea and LeAnn. I was at the front rows, I heard the 3 songs, took some pics, then I went home. I didn't see the handler, but still very much "Rizal" huh. Nice bench shirt. Nice smiles for the pics. I'll just give the cd to my starkid as a prize. :)

Baste, sadly this time

So I went to my Uncle Denz burial at Baste. I can't explain what I felt there. It's so unreal, but Uncle Denz is really there, lying in state. I realized he had been a great prof here with my Aunt. There was a tribute for him.
It's like a long overdue reunion for all our relatives in my mother side. It's so sad we just all have to meet for a sad occasion. I did say my sorry to Uncle Denz, kya lang only in the coffin na. I hope he did forgive me na. I actually thought I saw his barong move, parang he's breathing pa. But I'm not easily frightened eh, I just peek at the coffin closely. They say he has become a white butterfly, so be it. I guess he's now at peace and no need to cry.
Since he is a psychic, he probably knew his end is coming. He had his barong tailor-made na, he supervised his faculty on what to do for the coming grad since he was "leaving" daw somehere. I heard he was also looking for a burial place. It's just sad he didn't tell his family of all his ailments.
Anyways, Riz was there. We finally met up again after a long time. The last time I saw her was the guesting of lolo in Baste. That time, it was a happy occasion and a memorable time in the chapel area. Riz had been one of my Uncle's student in Baste. That's why everyone is wondering how I came to meet Riz.
My aunt became a young widow and no one will be that good of a cook in our coming fiesta. I heard my Uncle told a relative to continue the cooking chores for him. I guess, in a way, I'll miss my Uncle and his good old jolly self. Sabi ko nga ang daya nya, he left us na. I thought he will be there to assist me pa in the future. But tawag na ni Lord siya eh. He's in a better place.
Riz and I had a nice long chat, we even called up the mom of our friend. After the burial, I shoot some hoops in Baste, then hop in our red van. Nakakapagod din pala the sad burial. So long and goodnight to my Uncle ala "Helena" song.

Three old friends meet again

Three old friends meet again. It's our second time to meet since the 2 year hiatus of my friendship with Em. We were all working it out, giving our friendship another try. Besides it's Vky's birthday. Vky had been my friend since highschool. I meet Em at FEU in my college days. I don't study at FEU, I just had masscom buddies there.
And so we met at a mall. Nice chat. Great food. Enjoyable walk, tripping as mallrats. We gave Vky her gift of course. It was her bday treat to us.
What's weird and funny is we just got lost in a mall. We didn't see each other after leaving one place. I know it's stupid but I guess it's partly my fault. I got low-batt in my cel so I didn't know where to find them. So I just surf, then I went home, talked a bit to a cute guy, then re-charged at home. Then I texted them after 2 hours of charging. My golly, they were looking for me pala. You now it's funny, it always happen to my friends when we were at malls. One time, I even left some of my things with my friends and we just saw each other the next day. One time, they were paging me in the mall, and I didn't even hear it on the mic. I already texted these girls, I think they will forgive me naman. I thought din kasi that they left me rin. Besides, I also wanna go home na. I guess, if you're my friend, you will have to get lost with me once in a while. hahaha. :) Trademark na yun.

Two deaths

I don't really like talking about deaths. There's something about that topic that evokes loneliness and pain. But it happened one day in two people I know and so I went to the funeral.
Aaron's grandpa died from a lingering illness. He was blind and diabetic. We call him Tito Chris. They were our close next-door neighbors. Aaron always does ' over the bakod' to get to our house and play with us. Tito Chris' family is very much prepared and they anticipated his coming end. I really admired them for that. If it happened to me, I would fall into pieces. I guess, the afterlife needs preparation too. At least Tito Chris is no longer suffering, he's with the Lord and maybe with his drinking buddies, Mira's dad and Cyron's grandpa ( neighbors also). I guess I just remember Tito Chris when he was still alive.
My Uncle Denz followed soon. I though Tito Jim was just joking when he texted about it. He was so young at 51 but he had a lot of illness. Tito Denz is a respected prof and Head at Baste. He was my psychic adviser before. It's just sad we weren't in good terms when he died. It was sad I never said 'Sorry' to him. I will never say sorry if I think I didn't do anything wrong. But as Babyface sings sometimes a person doesn't know he or she is wrong. Now, my Uncle's dead, I can never really say it again, maybe on his coffin na lang.
Sayang, he didn't became a healer. He was next in line since he was a psychic. Sayang, we never talked again like we used to. Gosh, he just hosted grandmama's 90th b-day. Maybe grandmama will outlive us all because of that amulet. What if I swallow that thing? hay, I'd never do that. I guess, these deaths mean something. It's either a life lived worthily or a wasted life. And makes you think what's next in the afterlife? What is out there in the buddhist beliefs? I guess, these deaths of two good people will leave a good memory to me.

Rands at 20

I went to see Rands with Cecil my friend. Sulit naman pala. We love Rand's crazy antics and showmanship. I mean, he used to be my fave when I was in highschool-College. I admit, I went to Lunchdate before. Besides, I like it, I saw my Vicor friends again. Too bad, I didn't also see Rands at the fiesta. But he did tell me a little bit something about that fiesta. There are still people who wanna see Randy perform after 20 years in Bul. He's a bul boy anyway. I took a pic of Cecil with F4 look-alike Jeff. I guess, I still like Rands naman as a performer. He still looks young despite his age. :)

Mr. and Ms Joy and Piola

Since I was sad and broken last night, I decided to be Joy's photog for her ultra fave Piolo. I don't like Piolo, I just wanna see my friend's reaction. ( I get sleepy with his CD songs) Piolo? He's good-looking but I think Sam is better-looking. That's if I had to compare the two. He's nice ha. I get to beso and Joy grabbed his hands... haha. I teased that she's like touching fishes in the market. :) That's enough to make me smile and be a little bit happy. I mean, I'm just here to see Joy's reaction. I know Joy's such a serious person and now, she's a bit out of control. She disappeared on me and went to front rows. I had to follow, I'm the photog remember. It's just nice, we finally saw PJ. Ok na din.

The Sad Fiesta

I know, fiesta are supposed to make you happy, alive and jolly. But I felt sad coz I didn't saw my friend there. Nabastos pa ata sya ng mga organizers, wala siyang name doon sa banner. Surprise whatever. I just went home. Malen already left me. She has a Kagawad meeting pa. Maybe the lord doesn't permit me to see my friend, despite the texts and my belief that my friend WAS there. I actually dreamt that I saw my friend in the plaza, well, I guess only in dreams can we see each other clearly. There must be a reason, whatever it is, only God knows.

Sam more? I've had enough!

I happen to see the 4th mall tour of SM's solo 'rockstar' album. He's really going places huh. The place is very much jampacked. The album sounds like Alex Band meets Hanson and Hoobastank. hehehe. I met 2 gays, Junar (who knew lots of celebs) and Tony ( who doesn't look like a gay physically.) I also met a teenage girl and her sister and Mrs. Tinay, an old woman just here to unwind like me.
We were at the 3rd or 4th row. I must say SM is nice naman except for the handler. I think I just wasted my time there. Nice pics anyway. Moving on. :)

Close to you

I met two new friends when I went to the Close to you tour. They're nice, Grace and Daisy, just here like me to see the talented Mr. Milby. (with Bea and Lloydie)
Well, napakacute naman talaga. Lucky Toni G! I'm just here to unwind after typing ang printing 20 pages of work-related stuff. Did I feel 'Close to you?' hah, I wish. But never you mind. :)
