The Birthday Craze

I love birthdays... So I make it a point to celebrate this special day the best way I could. Well, it is not about spending or going crazy over shopping. It's about celebrating YOU and the people who have been with you in the journey.

Birthdays are something I am crazy about. Even my mom finds me weird that I am more excited comes May when she's to celebrate her birthday. I usually have something planned for the day, no matter how simple or cheap it is. Another proof, well, I was the one who actually started the "plan" about lola's birthday celebration this month. 

Aside from Lola, I am a January baby too :) This year, I just want a time to relax so I am treating myself to a massage and luckily, a friend said she'll join me so it will be fun, I'm sure. I am a massage aficionado and there's a spa here left unexplored, so we will go there. On the day of my birthday, I will actually have to join the kids attend another birthday party of one of my cousin's daughter. I know I can choose not to go but since the kid is really close to us and because they also braved an hour ride from their place to ours during my daughter's birthday, we will do the same honor to them. So no celebration on my actual birth date, I will just have to go to mass for thanksgiving. But the next day, we will have a lunch date with the whole family after another mass because it's Sunday by that time. So there you go. 

The Grateful Apos

Lately, I have been driving to Polangui on weekends to plan for our lola's secret party. Well, it is no secret anymore since we already gave the invitations and we decided to get lola involve in the planning. After all, one of the greatest perks of holding a party is becoming involve in the planning stage. The stress and the worries are all worth it in the end. 

Lola is turning 90 this 19th of January. She has always been my number one fan, and I am so grateful for that. She's the kind who would believe in me with all her heart. She has always been supportive even during times when even I could not understand myself. I remember those days when I would cry every time lola has to leave our house here after a week of visit. Now that she's old and her body's getting frail, I am the one who would visit her place along with the whole family. I might not be there for her weekly but Lord knows how much I try to reach out. 

I always love the simplicity of Polangui. It is a place where you get to enjoy wonderful homemade snacks. The prices are cheap and people are friendly. You do not have to worry about buying this or that or not having enough money on your pocket. Everything is within your reach, from banks to grocery stores. 

So back to the topic... You see we are holding this simple party. I am so elated that all her apos did actually contributed for the success of this party. Everyone is taking part and doing the best way they can, and boy, I am just so proud of my cousins. When I say 'everyone', I literally mean EVERYBODY! No one seems to be sitting and watching the others do the work. Everyone has their parts to play. And I am so thankful for the internet for making communication less stressful for all of us. So this Saturday, let's see how we're doing. All for Lola's benefits! :)

Rainy Tuesday

How are you?

It's raining really hard here. I'm in Bicol, by the way.

This afternoon, school was suspended so the kids enjoyed half of the day playing while the mom had the chance to work on her stuffs. Yes, that's the reason why I am blogging.

Anyway, as you would already know I am changing my blog to its own domain name. I guess its about time.

Not yet time to hit the sack, but I'm bidding everyone a great night! Sleep tight and keep warm :)

Welcome 2013!

Hello 2013! How's everyone?

I've been thinking of giving this blog a makeover. Its just ironic that while I've been working to make other people's websites look good, I left my blog totally at the dark. Well, just a few blog name change and perhaps a URL change with do the trick. I'm excited!


Will keep you updated.
