HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

it's hard to admit...

.. that i am not so much into christmas this year...

a lot of things has happened this year.
and the major thing is losing dominic. .. that was the only thing that happened this year.
from then it was up and down... its dizzying. its tiring.

at some point i have to sober up and get my act together.

but for now i am not ready yet.

it is unfair to a lot of people. especially my hubby.

but then again, it is unfair for me...

im still angry. am still mad. because i got questions unanswered.

somewhere deep down i feel festive, i can get in the spirit..
i hear it in my voice, i see it in my actions...

but the spark just never reach my eyes... no. it's just not visible through
the window of my soul....

merry christmas to you... and to all a merry christmas.

bummer...

home on a saturday... a really gloomy day... its only 430pm and it already seem like 7pm here... winter na talaga.

we planned to go into town today to do some christmas shopping. unfortunately, we didnt get up til about 1030am.. so instead, had a brunch (leftovers from last night, toinks) and went our separate ways~ my hubby to his ps2 and me to my magicsing.. birit to the max til i was able to sing all the songs i know from the book ( it was not too many, by the way)

i thought it would help clear my sinuses, hehe of course it didnt. it managed to make my voice husky and croaky now and again.. toinks.

now i must sign off coz i need to face the real music of this house~ time to be domesticated.

hello plantsa and kabayo.. we meet again...

over and out

feeling blekkk today.... oh yeah, in between shifts i tend to come down with illness sometimes. and the weather does not help at all.. being in a country that provides four seasons has its advantages and disadvantages...



so... now am down with flu-like symptoms~ coughing, achy joints, headache, earache, tamaditis.. hehe well that is how i feel right now..



never mind.. this hopefully, will be over in 5 days time now that i am on medication (antibiotics lang naman) hehe...

a little excuse to be extra tamad.. toinks.

jeren!!!!

hello hello hello!!! am back to blogging..

no particular theme.. but am into lotsa things (nothin new in that i suppose). so hopefully, i'd be writing about them in between shifts...

yup as the title suggests, i do shift work, with plenty of time in between, to be able to develop my interests, hobbies and also to discover new things and perhaps share some knowledge (as if?!), expertise (WHAT???), or beliefs and opinions about anything and everything that would take my fancy...

what better way to start than the christmas season!!!!!

haaaayyyy... pasko na naman.. and i recall mentioning to a colleague at work that i just realised, it's been 9 years since i last felt and had a pinoy christmas... yup 9 bloomin' long years that i have been away working across the seas...

so what have i been missing?

syempre pers na pers ang simbang gabi... waking up before dawn, walking to church (kse scarce ang tricycle), trying to keep awake while listening to padre's sermon.. i always lost count of how much yawns i've made.

neks ang bibingka at puto bungbong! soooo yummy! lalo na if there's loads of butter and panutsa on the puto...

kris kringle and exchange gifts... something sweet, something long, something hard.. nice to open small pressies bago pa man ang big one...

carolling time! tayo na giliw magsalo na tayo, mero na tayong tinapay at keso.. di ba noche buena sa gabing ito! at bukas ay araw ng pasko!.. namamasko po!!! tenkyu tenkyu ang baba...ang baba... ang babait ninyo tenkyu! need i say more? teehee...

pero of course, my family... gaano man kahirap ang buhay, iba ang saya iba ang ngiti kapag kapiling ang mga mahal sa buhay..

decorating the christmas tree is not as fun as it is back home..

pero sabi nga ng mga expat pinoys, kahit san man tayong sulok ng mundo, we try to make pasko as pinoy as possible... so there....

mamamasko po!!!!! hehehe...
