Another Birthday Greetings!

To my brother, glenn, wishing you all the best on your 35th birthday today and beyond.

Also, if I'm not mistaken, yesterday was supposedly the 109th birthday of my tatay, my mama's father.  May his soul rest in peace.

Yesterday was also the natal day of my aunt badik.  I wonder when will I be able to taste again her clan-renowned cassava cake. yummy!

Attention Surigaonons!

I recently posted thru my other blog, surigao1.blogspot.com, (to check the blog, please click this) a survey of candidates for mayor of surigao city.

I am requesting Surigaonons out there to cast your votes and together, we'll see who would likely to win for the mayoralty race for our beloved hometown.

Should you also have comments about the political arena in Surigao, please don't hesitate to post it here.

Salamat karajaw!  :)

four birthday gurls... and a boy

i would just like to greet the three women who are celebrating their birthdays today, April 5. They are: Pres. GMA (do i need to write who she is?), Myles Mosende (my friend and high school classmate), and of course, my only sister, Grace.

on the other hand, at the animal kingdom: Katrina, my pet, turned one year old last Saturday. she has grown into a very smart mini pinscher. her male partner, Ashley, also got his own slice of cake yesterday as he leaped towards his 5th year in showbusiness, err, this world. :)

2010 Bar Examination Results

Those who took the bar examinations last September 2009 must be holding their breath for the much-awaited result from the Supreme Court which is expected to be released anytime now.

Congratulations, in advance, to those who made it! While for those who are not so lucky, keep your hopes high!

I'll be posting the list of 2010 bar passers soon. ;)

168 Shopping Galore

I might go to 168 Shopping Mall this weekend. That, I always say to myself every time I feel the urge to unwind somewhere away from my home. But until now, it has not been realized. Why? For one, it is so far from my place of residence. Second, I rather stay at my cool sanctuary than be a victim of El Niño phenomenon outside.

But then, I still long to go to 168. As I often say to my relatives and friends, if I would have to choose between Mall of Asia and 168, I would go for the latter.

Why 168? It is where my energy levels get high every time i buy great finds at great discounts. I guess I share the same sentiments as other women when it comes to shopping. Breezing through a flood of co-shoppers along the narrow pathways inside the mall is a challenging task which shopaholic women like me wouldn't mind taking.

So, will I be able to go to 168 Shopping Mall this weekend? I say, hopefully...

Oh my Mama!

While Surigaonons were in panic for the Tsunami alert, my mama still managed to crack a joke when I called her up yesterday. She said she was about to recite the Mi Ultimo Adios when her phone rang. And my cousin Ann, according to my mama, was afraid that she might lose her most beautiful aunt that Ann kept on calling her, prodding her to join them.

Well, knowing my mama, she won't just give in to such scare. She has always maintained her composure and of course, her sense of humor. And that's just two things that I admire about her.

I must say, i'm so lucky to be her daughter! :)
