A fully booked weekend to remember

Waaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!!
Supa fun!
I couldn't get over it too..

Saturday morning.. A date out with my teammates.. We had a super blast eating in a pizza shop.. Kulitan and super daming gutom.. Shempre.. Mdaming food din.. It was really funny because as soon as the food were served.. The soonest the hands came swerving in to the food at the table. Haha! Mga taong maraming gutom.. Marami ring kuha.. There were pizzas, chicken, mojos, spaghetti.. hmm.. yummie.. So sweet of them pa nga to fill up my plate with everything. Wala akong kinuha.. Sila ang nag lagay ng food ko.. Awww.. Thanks guys! Bonding moments surely.. afterwards.. some went home and new fellas joined in.. Inuman and videoke session naman.. hay.. lalu tuloy aku nawalan ng voice.. We sang on the stage drank the bestest beer in the world.. Laughter surely filled up the air.. super fun times two.

Headed home after the chill. Rested and slept beside my precious Riane.

A couple of hours later, another set of friends picked me up. I didn't expected na tuloy kami sa Antipolo. Woke up and packed my stuff, didn't planned to take a dip pero when we got to the place. No f*ing way would I say no to such beautiful waters. It was supposed to be an overnight swimming escapade. The place was super awesome. It's a very huge resort and it has soooo many nipa huts and cottages in it. We occupied cottage number 57.. I think.. There was a very cool hall with a pool in it and it has super cool disco lights as well. Ang daming gwapo.. este.. tao.. I was freakishly wearing a two piece suit.. Kapal lang diba? WOHENUNGEYON kung malaki ang tyan ko?! Masarap uminom at kumain eh. Haha! Nonetheless.. I think I looked fine. We met some people and the whole night just ROCKED! Haahh!! ANG SAYA!! Thanks for taking me out friends!

We were supposed to go home around 5am but my ever dearest friend clumsily left the keys in the trunk. Haha! We were stuck in there watching helplessly as the locksmiths attempt to open the doors. Good thing I slipped money in my suit, otherwise.. we wouldn't have anything to eat. They were wondering why I had that money all along.. Eh kase naman.. lagi silang nakikipag unahan mag bayad sakin.. hmph! I was soo the man that time.. I was soo ready.. We just teased each other and sang and hung out in the parking lot all afternoon, until we finally decided to go back to the city to get the spare key. It was a super blast times three.

We headed home to pick up Riane and then, they dropped us off sa house ng bestfriend ko afterwards. Chillax mode with another set of friends and we slept over doon. Riane has a cold and she was up all night. My friends though.. They really cared for my little one. They love her and I can feel that they want her in their lives too. So lucky of us to have friends as such. God is truly magnificent.

The rest is just history.. plus a big smile on my face.

I love my life.. and thebbest thing about it.. is that Riane and I are loved.

Another great week ending.. =)

Multi-tasking at last.. ;)

Having breakfast and jotting down a couple of my week's highlights.. while the little one plays beside me..
Kissing her non stop..

Woke up a couple of minutes ago from a sleep which is a result of my unstoppable need to take a gulp of beer.. My bestfriend and I was supposed to go somewhere before the shot.. but due to my irreparable punctuality flaw.. I didn't make it on time. She texted me and asked me if I wanted to join them nilang mag boyfriend to watch a game via sattelite along with their Bedan friends.. Then after that.. Shot daw and food trip na.. Eh ang slow na Roan.. I said to myself.. Basketball? Eh! La ku hilig dun eh.. Yun pala kay Pacquiao haha!

It was really great. I'm meeting a lot of people again. At nabubusog na naman si Seg (my celphone's name) dahil nakaka tikim na naman sha ng load. It was really funny cos all of my friends kinda understand my replies to them kahit super expired na yung point? haha! Hmm.. Parang mga three weeks na yung interval, then I'd browse my messages and see na.. Ay.. Nag aya pala sha mag swimming.. I'd say.. "Tara.." they'd be like.. "Anung tara? Wala na.. Tapos na.." Not exagerating.. We'd laugh about it after my explanation.. Hay..

Sometimes.. I crack myself up.. Natatawa ko sa mga pinag gagagagawa ko.. *tama ba.. ga-ga-gawa?!* anyway.. Like kahapon.. I uploaded an album sa facebook.. but since my friend doesn't want any rumors sa kanya to spread like AIDS.. We decided to make it private.. So wala ng chismis.. Kasi.. Wala naman talaga.. but anyway.. I did na.. Sabi ko pa sa description. "Ayan na po yung pix.. Tayo tayo lang makaka kita nyan.." ayun.. after a few seconds.. comments kept popping up.. "Private na private nga! hahaha!" I was like.. huh?! how's that possible.. I texted my friend at nakapag load ako ng wala sa oras just to seek assistance. Gave her the password and asked her to edit it. She then texted me.. "Okay na Ann.. Eh kaya naman pala eh.. Kami yung naka restrict eh.. haha.."

teka.. nahihilo ko..
maya ulet.. dami pa ko kwento..

It's afternoon na.. Hay.. Thank God wala na yung hang-over ko.. Kanina.. I vommited again.. I was so hungry afterwards but my throat was really sore from the pag throw up ku so I ate quite lightly lang.. I'm sleepy na but I can't stop yapping.. hehe.. So.. where was I?

Saturday morning after my shift.. my friends from work and I drank a couple of beers and we had a videoke trip along Makati area.. afterwards.. one of them accompanied me to buy a crib for Riane.. It felt so good buying her that thing.. I was so excited to go home to show everyone what I got and to put her in it. Wow.. She slept ever so soundly that night and when she woke up the next morning.. She kept laughing and laughing and smiling and smiling.. I thought.. "Grabe anak.. I so know how to make you happy and I'll give it all to you.. I'll spoil you like mommy and tatay did me.. So one day you won't long for matterial and earthly things.. You won't grow up with envy.. You won't pay much attention to what money can buy cos you already had everything.. almost.. and so you'd focus on what is unseen by the naked eye.. You'll see the beauty of the world the way I always did.." *I know.. Sometimes.. I forget* "You'll grow up to be a respectful and witty.. And I hope you grow up just like me.." Cos I can honestly say.. I am proud of who I am.. I'm proud of how strong my heart is and at the same time.. it also bleeds when bruised.. "It will be my greatest challenge to keep you away from pain.. I can't let jerks mess you up the way they messed up mine when I was doing so good with my realizations.." Yup.. And she kept laughing and laughing still so I told her.. "Anak tama na.. oa ka na.." hehe.. Kidding aside.. I don't have much left on my account cos I bought a lot of things for her and I'm consistently buying milk and dipeys.. Plus.. I can't resist lending money to people who matters to me.. 2nd plus.. I can't say no to quality moments and friends.. Kaya mejo I won''t be able to save up at the moment.. But you know what the magic is? God seems to let me enjoy everything.. Totoo pa nga nyan.. I think He's tolerating me.. Cos He secretly is providing for me.. Meron kasi kami makukuhang incentives from work and with the money that I'm expecting pa.. I'm planning to buy her airconditioning. The Lord's way of sayin.. I never left you.. Hayy.. Thank You po Dear God.. Don't You worry.. I will try to listen to You all the time.. I will try not to defy You.. Cos the last time I did.. My heart got shattered into pieces.. hehe.. I deserve that.. Kasi sabi ni Lord.. "Di sha ang para seo.. Wag ka machulet.." Eh ang chulet ku pa rin.. ;p

Another thing I noticed is that when someone knows how to make use of what she already has and be contented of whatever is current.. She becomes beautiful.. I know.. cos I've been getting quite the bestest compliments.. lalu nan nung preggy pa ko.. And to be quite frankly.. Nakaka taba ng puso.. na even at my saddest hours.. some even bother to see way pass the swollen eyes and the growing tummy.. I recalled kasi how the compliments came about.. My besy's boyfriend picked me up sa church kasi nga sho-shot kami.. I asked.. "andun ba si..." a guy who has been meaning to ask me out nun preggy pa ku.. He said.. "Wala.. don't worry.. uy sorry dun huh.. kami na humihingi ng pasensha".. I told him.. "nyeks.. okei lang yun.. bka naman.. mabait naman sha.. mejo nailang lang aku siguro kasi alam kong crush nya ko.. hehe" And then we talked about the guy and how he was with girls and then we talked about kung sino sino yung mga may crush pa sakin.. waaahhh.. how I am the envy of many na even though preggy still manages to look good at the same time.. sarap i-record.. I was literally blushing and floating in the air.. God.. so sweet of You to put those thoughts in their minds.. Hay.. I showed them the video that I made too.. They were sooo supportive about it.. they were like.. "Ako yon oh.. Ako yon.. Pare andun ako.. Kaw rin andun oh.. si ano.. uy si ano pa.." waahahahaha.. and they were so perked up about it and pretending to jump with excitement.. haha.. I was really embarrased but.. come to think of it.. It was really sweet seeing them like that.. haha! We talked about everything and anything that came up.. Browsed the net.. Searched for people we know and teased each other.. Played beautiful music.. Drank beer.. Bitter-sweet sharing about the past.. Great advices.. Words of upliftment.. Grabeng ultimate hang out na trip ko talaga.. They have no idea of how great I was feeling already na.. Tapos.. They made me felt better pa.. Ano pa? The best na ko nyan kung ganon.. Dear Lord God.. You are amazing..

Nauna na yung bestfriend ko and I was left there on my own.. The horse got to my veins and talagang hilo na din kasi kaya I said goodbye na to them and planned to take a cab na lang.. Kaso they insisted on taking me home.. So sweet noh? But before that.. We had a stop over sa house nung may ari ng auto tapos hatid na nila ko.. and then.. guess what happened.. Right before umandar na kami.. I asked them to hold it.. I opened the door.. and then.. I threw up.. Yhaks.. Kahiya.. They were even teasing my vommit.. "Yan yung kinain mo kanina oh.. May Veggies.. Fruits.. Pizza.. Yung tansan!" waaaaahhh.. Ewwwness lang.. Jahe talaga.. Huhu.. One of them though, in spite of the turn off na pag susuka.. asked for my number.. Haba lang ng hair.. Pero.. Kahiya talaga ko..

Summary: Met new friends.. Loving old ones.. Coming accross those with potential kilig-providing individuals.. Drunkard, yet appreciated.. Remembered as "The pinaka magandang buntis!" awww.. *blush..*

Haay.. Love You Lord.. =)

Sweet are the uses of adversity

I just had my birthday. It wasn't like how I annually plan it to be, but nonetheless.. it went pretty well for me. God truly acts in mysterious ways. It was supposed to be a little gathering between some friends and a few acquaintances from work. When we got there, there was another set of coworkers within the venue. Some fellas from our segment also came.. and then.. it was a blast. I was just a bit embarrassed cos I didn't paid for everything.. which isn't usually how I am during celebrations as such. As much as possible, my share if not is 100%.. it's at least bigger than the half. Anyway, it was really interesting because on that day, was one of the highlight conversations I've had in my life. I spoke to one of the guys there and surprisingly.. we kinda understood each other.. don't get me wrong.. I wasn't attracted to him in any getting-to know-kilig factor way or anything like that.. nope! We were sharing about life with a beer on our hands. He said that his batch mates would always notice me and they would talk about how great I looked as a pregnant lady with all the rumors following my big pregnant butt. He also mentioned that they somehow knew what happened to me but they didn't felt hate cos they felt like I'm a nice person. They would also notice how my eyes were bombarded for almost everyday that they would come across yours truly and that I still manage to go to a toxic place and smile at everyone in spite of all the backstabbing they have been seeing. What surprised me even more though is when he started crying.. like a little boy.. when I talked about how I'm so over the top fine now and that my daughter is the 90% reason behind it.. how the world's perception of my life is of no importance cos I have all the means to be happy.. and that my daughter and I don't need someone who doesn't want to play the role God forcingly gave him.. just there.. he blurted out all his heart's ache.. he told me how we're almost caught up in a somehow similar situation.. only.. he's scared of how his girlfriend and baby would feel like how I was. I said.. "hmm bakit naman..ayaw mu bang maging masaya sila?" he paused.. drank his beer and replied with tears falling from his eyes.. "di kami parehas ng daddy ng baby mo.. my girlfriend doesn't want me in her life anymore.. but I don't have the strength to give her what she wants. Selfish ako in a way cos I wanted us to be a family.. I love my girlfriend and hate her at the same time.. pero ayoko silang talikuran for i want them to give me the respect a father deserves from his mag ina.." I was speechless. I honestly ran out of good things to tell him. I drank my beer too and gave him a pat on his back.

There would come a time in our lives when all we have to do is to accept things as they come. It might not be as comforting as all the other decisions we have made before, but at least we are giving others and ourselves a chance to grow into something that we ourselves are not so sure about. Wala naman kasing bad outcome eh. It's just a matter of how we could run around a really complicated situation. A gamble. Take it. Play your bad cards right and hope for the better. If we lose.. there would always be this "one time".. and it would all be enough to get us going.

I couldn't share my happiness to my new buddy.. I can't have him feel bad cos I don't. I said to him. "Do your part and don't expect too much in return.. and so when you leave this world.. You will feel pride knowing you have played your purpose righteously.. and that couldn't be taken away from you.

Now, I'm always finding every reason to be happy and quite surprisingly.. I'm not running out of them. Plus.. my fatty areas are proof of how I am doing just great. All we need is a little push. And when you really really think about it.. sweet are the uses of adversity.. it makes us thankful for the little things that we have.. Little things that fills the air with my laughter.

to be continued..
