Enjoy the Love in the Air!

Hey it's my Birthday =)

Day was okay, another birthday... another day of the year...

And to cap the night, I went to see Marley and Me - last full show at the movie theaters. =) I have heard some not-so-good reviews about it BUT... for a dog lover such as me, the movie was really good... and yeah... it made me love my dogs even more... and yes, I did cry during the last scenes...

I will add that movie in my DVD collection. =)


Good Night!

it's showing here...

Marley and Me will be showing here in Manila on Feb 4! How cool is that!

Anyway, I have read some online reviews of people in the US who have watched the film and it wasn't as good as the book but regardless, I am still looking forward to watching that movie. =)

Papa Roy

A very good friend from the MEDIA died earlier today due to heart attack. I am lost for words to express how I feel. I never had a friend who died. This is the first time. And I can't seem to stop crying...

All I could really think of was how fun it was being with him, and how he listened to me during times I was feeling so low about work... and how he told me that it matters to them that it was me they're working with so they make good in all our advocacies... Oh God...

Papa Roy, we will miss you terribly... I will miss you...

Happy New Year!

The long holidays was something we all looked forward too but now that it's over, reality kinda hits hard! =) Well, work resumes and all the stresses that goes with it. Some people have resumed being their worst selves, and others retreat to being indifferent. We can only control what we do, changing does not guarantee that others will do too.

So for 2009, I expect less from others and more from myself...... the way I have done last year, and the year before that, and the year before that... ... ... without losing the nerve to fight back when needed and keep silent when it ain't worth it. =)

I feel 2009 will be as good, if not a better year for me! =) no harm wishing.....

Happy New Year!

Have been surfing the net for whatever and reading news online as the holidays actually make me feel "lazy" or at least the holidays give me an excuse to feel lazy. =)

But anyway for some serious thoughts, I will be posting here an excerpt, actually the last paragraph of the article published in Inquirer, Dec 24. The editorial talks about the global crisis we are facing but how we could actually make ourselves truly Christians. It was nicely written I had to blog it and share it. Happy New Year everyone.

The coming economic hard times should not stop us from giving gifts. Far from it. What we simply want to say is that when we stop giving from our surplus and start giving from our substance, that’s when the true spirit of Christmas comes unwrapped.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!

Marley and Me - THE MOVIE!!!!

Remember the post I wrote about a book I read called Marley and Me? It's now a movie!!!

I learned about it the other day as I was at the bookstore where I bought my copy of that book and noticed that a in the cover of Marley and Me was the part that it is now a major motion picture starring Owen Wilson and Jennifer Aniston=)

I loved that book so much because I do have my own pet, with the same breed - a Labrador. And the craziness of "Marley" somewhat reminds me of my own dog's quirks. My pet's puppy pic is located at the sidebar of this blog.

I really am thrilled it's a movie so I logged in the net and surfed it. I found the trailer and oh boy, was I excited to see the scenes I read from the book! It's showing in the states this Christmas!

Oh I hope they show it here soon!!!

See the trailer below:

Past Christmas Pics

That's my eldest sister, Christmas 2001 in New York with Nirro when he was still a baby. =) I was also there at that time.

I miss the snow... this was taken 2001 in Queens, NY. At my Auntie Perla's place, who recently passed away...

This was Christmas, December 2004. My eldest sister and her husband weren't there. They were in Manila. From left, Agnes, my brother's wife, My Kuya Ced, My Mom, ME, my Diche (2nd sister), and my Dad. My other sister looks like the youngest right? =) Well, that's always the case, but the thruth is, I am the youngest one in the brood of four.

This is CHANGE for the Better

Barrack Obama's Victory over the US Presidency - definitely ONE FOR THE BOOKS!!!
