Lola's 75th bday preparation...

As early as February, Lola is thinking of where to celebrate her 75th birthday... Syempre nagdadalaga at gusto nya talagang maghanda... We suggest that we celebrate her birthday on Tagaytay with only relatives but she refuse because she wants to celebrate it maybe with her friends or colleagues...

Last week, my cousin and I talked about the preparation... (fyi to relatives sa US)

Date: April 4, 2009 4:00pm
Lola's birthdate is April 5, she wants the celebration on April 4 kasi nalaman nya na yung iba nyang friends ay hindi mkakapunta sa bday nya kaya ayun inurong nya ang date...

Venue and Food: Robin Louis Bar & Restaurant
I heard that Lola has guests of 250 pax and i learn that Robin Louis price per pax is P300. I don't know if this is expensive or not but i don't care kasi hindi nman ako ang may sagot ng venue and food eh kundi ang Cantos family. hehe

Invitation: from Easel & Canvass
Gusto sana ni Kuya bing is d2 magpagawa sa manila but since we're running out of time, dun na lang nagpagawa sa Easel & Canvass (i'll post the invitation later).

Dress:
At nagpatahi pa ng damit nya...ayaw nyang bumili n lang...

Cake:
Wala pang final decision regarding cake kasi yung unang cake na nagustuhan nila kuya bing is worth P8,000 (Louis Vuitton design). He's still looking for other options...

To Kit and Kat: Sabi ni Lola kayo daw ang sagot sa Cake nya...

Souvenir: Swarovski bracelet
Syempre when it comes to souvenir, si kuya bing ang maghahanap nyan pero sabi nya sken is hati daw kami kasi masyado daw mahal... (Haller...ang mahal kaya ng isang bracelet ng swarovski...i just wondering sa guests ni Lola, ilan kayang piraso ang kailangan na souvenir? Dapat pati si BJ mag-share din d2 kasi may work nman sya jan sa US. hehe... (pakisabi nga kit, bka gusto nya mag-share...) hehe

Bheng & Dave's vacation from US

Starting Wednesday i was on vacation leave from office. Dumating kasi si Bheng and Dave from US for a two weeks vacation. Bheng is Joyneir's cousin and isa sya sa close friend ko among his relatives, I accompany her sa mall to shop for everything that she can bring back to US like clothes, shoes, pasalubong. etc... at pati nman ako nainggit kaya napa-shopping na din ako...(i did break my rule of not spending too much!)...pinagalitan tuloy ako ni badz kasi naubos ko yung allowance ko for 2 weeks at pati pambayad ko ng insurance ko.. huhuhu :(

Saturday... nagkayayaan ang Undag Family to have a swimming party before Bheng and Dave leave for US. They even pay for the private resort fee as one of their treat to their family. Bheng reserve the resort thru internet and when we saw the place, it's worth the price coz its so cozy, the water is from natural spring (its like taking a bath in your home kasi walang chlorine), unlimited din and gamit ng videoke and billiards kaya nman one-to-sawa ang mga mahihilig kumanta...if you're looking for a resort, i recommend this place....

Bolinao Trip

March 14-16, 2009

Team Building at Bolinao, Pangasinan

Finally, our team decided to have another team building and this time in Bolinao, Pangasinan. I've been to Hundred Islands at Alaminos before and ngaun ko lang na-realize na ang layo pala ng hundred islands sa Bolinao. We stayed at Rock Garden hotel & resort for almost 3 days, they offer good clean rooms, mini zoo, pool and other recreational area like billiard hall, tennis court, chapel, videoke hall etc. We had our meals in Rock Garden restaurant (kinda expensive), wala kasi kaming baon na food and we also avail the Rock graden tour package to Bolinao's famous attraction like it's 16th century Church, Balingasay River, Enchanted Cave, Cape Light house and the famous Patar Beach...

Sbarro with officemates...

SATURDAY


I start the day with a breakfast at Sbarro with my teammates. Ganun talaga pag payday, nagkakayayaan habang may pera pa..haha

ang mga matatakaw... hehe...

Then after lunch i was busy preparing for 3 birthdays:

First, to my cousin EJ's birthday, naghanda sila for his 24th birthday kaya nagpunta kami don as early as 3pm for the merienda.

Second, to my officemate before, Ate Eva, she contacted us all to celebrate her birthday and also parang reunion na din nmin to kasi halos lahat kami is on different companies na. Medyo napainom si Badz dito.

Third, by 9pm we leave Ate Eva's celebration and went to Neil's house in moonwalk, Neil was Joyneir's high school barkada. As usual, more on inuman and since Rina (Neil's wife) is not around, they end their inuman session early and they've decided to continue their celebration the next day.


SUNDAY


It's jollibee time for Tami. Badz and I make it a point na every payday madala nmin si tami sa Jolibee, kasi nman sa araw-araw na nauwi kami from work, dati she will say pasalubong and follow us at our room until badz gave her something like biscuit or lollipop na binibili nya sa 7-11 pero ngaun pag nadating kme, she will keep on saying "jollibee".

By 9am hinatid kami ni Papa sa Jollibee, sinama na nmin si Sean and his yaya to have breakfast and also to let them play at Jollibee. While they're playing, we ask Tata to look for them while we're gone. We went to RFC to buy DVD and we bought 6 DVD's to watch. After Jollibee, we went home and watch dvd.

after nmen kumain...nag-iisip kung ano gagawin...

nauhaw sa pagod si tami kakalaro...

my favorite breakfast meal...bangus

While Badz is watching, i decided to go to SM kasi I have to pay my due to Janssen's credit card, it was the PAL ticket to Cebu, naki-ride lang kasi ako dahil wala akong card. My due is 12,772 for the ticket, kahit antuk-antukan pa ang lola mo, nagpunta pa din ako kasi nkakahiya nman kung hindi ako magbayad on time. After paying bills, i just bought some toiletries at Watsons and tumingin na din ako ng office clothes sa Dept. store. Buti na lang tinawagan ako ni Badz na umuwi na at bumili ng Pizza kasi kung hindi nya ko tinawagan malamang nyan napagastos na nman ako ng malaki kasi may nagustuhan ako na slacks and blouse and wade sandals...Hay...ang sarap mag-shopping and for the second time napigilan ko talaga ang sarili ko na bumili ng expensive clothes...Umuwi na lang ako with the toiletries and my new make-up and also the pizza na bilin ni Badz.

Pag-uwi ako at pagkakain ng Pizza, natulog na lang ako kasi sobrang sakit ng ulo ko saka pagod din ako and for sure, madaling-araw na nman kami uuwi from sherwin's place.

By 7pm, Badz woke me up kasi tumawag na si Sherwin dahil nandon na daw si Neil and Rina. Whats good about their barkada is everytime na may gathering sila is they make it a husband-wife gathering kaya masaya and kagabi lang nmin na-meet ang wifey ni Mark and by May, boyet which we used to call Topak will be getting married with his gf whose flight stewardess and they will get wed on Bicol, their hometown and kagabi pinag-usapan ng buong tropa ang pagpunta sa Bicol for 3 to 4 days. Excited na ko to our husband-wife-outing-bonding. Well that's it. As early as today magpa-file na ko ng Vl at bka maunahan ako ng ka-team ko sa date.

that's our busy weekend...
