I AM MIMILANIE

I would be seeing my dear friend Christiana next week with my two other friends Malen and Ruthie. It's been a decade since the last time I've seen her and I bet there are so many things that has been changed. First and foremost, she is now a wife to his husband Jhun. They have been married for almost a year now but since they are already based in Canada...we were'nt able to witness it. Secondly, I've heard the good news that she will also be a mom soon! Wow, that's the best news I've heard from her so far. They've been praying to have one long before and I'm happy their prayers have been answered. Before I heard the good news, I planned to buy her one of those scarf I've seen in a mall. I have one with the exact same design which has been earning so many praises from my officemates.But since I've learned that she would be a mom soon, I've changed my mind. Instead, I'll gonna just buy something for her baby. I've discovered this cool...

Yesterday was Jojo’s 34th birthday. I really intend to celebrate it with him that’s the reason why I applied for a vacation leave week before this day. I almost forgot that Jojo’s birthday is on March 29 and since I was not able to file for a vacation leave in advance, I asked my supervisor if he could have it plotted manually. Good thing, the manual PTO was granted. Anyways, we woke up at around 9am, still not decided where to celebrate his birthday… I browsed through the net and found this restaurant in Timog called Tramway Buffet that offers “eat all you can buffet” for only P205! I was able to find so many blogs giving positive feedback about this resto so we were excited to try it. The venue is just near our place so it’s not hard for us to locate it. Although it’s already 12 NN, the buffet table is still empty. The server said that there has been some minor problems earlier that’s why they opened late today. She said it would just take around ten to fifteen minutes of wa...

repost from my other blog... And my birthday prayer to the man I love.... "Lord, please bless Jojo. I know you know what the desires of his heart are, you're a witness to all his frustrations and fears, you know what his sacrifices are just to make this relationship works...you know how hard he tries to be a good husband to me and a good son to his parents....you know everything he has in mind. Lord, whatever those are, please have your way in him. I hope he would continue to be the man he is right now. The same Jojo I've come to know four years ago. Same caring and kind hearted man who never fails to bring a smile to my face after a hard day, the same Jojo who always considers my own welfare first before his, the same guy who loves me unconditionally inspite and despite of everything. I am so lucky to have a husband like Jojo who does'nt care if I'm getting bigger and bigger everyday, who does'nt require me to do the dishes and fix the house or wash our clot...

Met my highschool friends again last Friday, March 11. Actually, the birthday celebrant Kirsten texted me a month before for her birthday and I promised her that I would be there. The day before the celebration, me and hubby went to Landmark/Trinoma to buy a shirt that I will wear specifically for the occasion and I already bought gifts for her. Strangely, on the day itself...though it's my restday...I feel so "tamad". I really planned of backing out since my friend Odette will not come since she does have work now in a call center as well. Luckily, when I texted my friend Pipa...he agreed to meet up with me so we can go together to the party. I've learned that his new boyfriend will come along with us. We then met up at GMA Kamuning MRT station where I was accompanied by my hubby. We will then go to the party together which will be held in Faustinos Grill in Timog. I'm thrilled to see my classmates I've never seen for almost sixteen years maybe? I'm so ex...

As time goes by and my retirement date is fast approaching, I began to feel fear inside me. I fear for the future and what it holds for me. I'm afraid to fail in this life, I'm afraid not being able to live comfortably after I quit this job. I know my hubby won't leave me alone but in our situation right now, I'm afraid if we don't save...my plans of being a part time housewife will never come true. I know I'm the one who asked my hubby to stop working and just concentrate on our online work but our online income isn't enough to run a family. I know I still need to allow him to work for his own self fulfillment and to also help in our finances. Lord, I don't know what path you want me to take. I don't want to plan for anything anymore as of this point because things right now are not going to the way I want it to be. Help me organize my thoughts and achieve one goal at a time, consistently. I don't want to take note of a task again, feeling disap...

Remember my previous post about a friend who called me "tsismosa"? Well, were ok na. He texted me just before I go to the office asking me if it's dress up that day. Though it's not anywhere related to our slight "tampuha", I take it as a sign of "pag-aalo". I know somehow he knew that he've hurted someone so it's a good thing he was the one who made the first move. I know naman sooner or later it will be fixed, I just didn't expect it to be that early. Anyways, I invited him to a private chat where I poured out what I felt and made some clarifications. It went well but I was kind'a shocked with some of his words. I never thought he was such a fierce guy, we'll I've learned so much from this situation. Not all jokes are to be uttered loudly. Though the party concerned is laughing about a certain thing, it doesn't mean that he agrees to it. Maybe he is just hiding his true emotion so as not to create any anymosity between...
