1 Twelve St.

Last Saturday, after visiting our friend in this hospital to welcome the newest addition to her family, we went to the parking lot obviously to leave the premises of the hospital. We were aghast to see that there was a car blocking off our way.

Our vehicle was horizontally parked at the end of the lot while the other car was parked vertically totally obstructing us from getting away. The driver not only failed to leave any of his contact number, he also put on the hand brake.

Even after thirty minutes of constant paging, the driver did not show up. Crashing the car and leaving it behind was very tempting. Good thing that the situation was an opportunity to practice patience.

Anyway, thank God that there were good macho souls who did the Mentos commercial. They carried the car to let us pass through, and carried it back.

I have to blog about it so I won’t be able to forget the incident ^_^

Maver’s Gossip Gehl is turning one and she’s giving away this Smart Bro (just look at her blog for available photo).  I am joining and hoping to snag it but you are welcome to join the fun!

May the blessed one be picked

Do you know the feeling when you can sense that something good is going to happen? You’re excited but you don’t know why?

That’s how I am tonight.

We attended the baptismal reception of Regina Victoria last Sunday. While eating our lunch, Bubble Boy entertained our tablemates with his cool, cool trick which he saw from Yo Gabba Gabba.

This year is different.

In more than two decades, we have commemorated The Freedom Day (otherwise called as EDSA 1) as a non-working holiday. We never ever changed the date of the celebration. We rejoiced and remembered the day we were freed from dictatorship on the very day that the then President left Manila.

And it was the very reason why I we chose that day to present our vows before God and mankind, and to any and all kind of governments. Because every year that we celebrate our anniversary, we are free to be together without filling out leave forms.

But now, we are again in bondage. We have been shackled by this global financial crisis, which led to a heart-breaking decision for our industry to survive. Companies need their people working. People need to work to keep on earning. And work should be valued to keep the economy surviving. And no, we are not going to ink those forms, but be a good ant to save for rainy days.

Sa limang taong pagsasama naming mag-asawa, ang hindi ko malilimutang tipanan na aming ginawa ay ang pagdiwang namin ng unang anibersaryo kami ay nagpunta sa Hong Kong, dala ang naging matalik naming kaibigan na si Tripod. Mistula kaming magkasintahan sa paglalambingan at paghaharutan. Isang kalokohan na ginawa namin ay nagsalita kami ng animong taga ibang bansang lengwahe, kaya naman inakala ng isang kapwa Pinoy na kami ay loko-loko taga Europa.

Last weekend, we spent our time exploring Pasig Rainforest Park and saw these animals:

BUTTERFLY

RAM

DEER

The Park is so nice. They have a Senior Citizens Park where everything is serene. There is a Butterfly Park and Avis Park. They also have facilities for outdoor activities such as wall climbing and the likes. And of course, there is a Children’s Park where the kids play to their hearts content. Oh, and there is a gym where group exercises are conducted. I would have shared more pictures had my battery not gone out.

Have a happy week everyone!
