Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad!0

Ma_and_paIt’s my parents’ 24th anniversary last Monday. Hehe.. I’ve just checked what symmbol corresponds to their anniversary this year. And guess what, it’s musical instruments! Hmn.. that trimmed down the possible choices for their gift. At first, we thought what could we give instead of literally a musical instrument? Concert tickets? Or maybe a CD?

I sought for the help of my sisters regarding this.. and we decided to give a musical card instead. But then, when I tried to find one, there isn’t any available in the 3 bookstores my boyfriend and I went to. :( So I just bought a non-musical card, and a CD of worship songs (which my mom likes to listen to).

We gave the gift that night and they appreciated it, nevertheless. ;)

Belated Happy Anniversary Pa and Ma! :)

Selfish0

I came across this song again as I’m loading songs into my MP4 player. This is one of my fave songs from N’ Sync. Enjoy! :)

Selfish
N’ Sync

I just don’t understand
Why you’re running from a good man baby
Why you wanna turn your back on love
Why you’ve already given up
See I know you’ve been hurt before
But I swear I’ll give you so much more
I swear I’ll never let you down
Cause I swear it’s you that I adore
And I can’t help myself babe
Cause I think about you constantly
and my heart gets no rest over you

You can call me selfish
But all I want is your love
You can call me hopeless (hopeless)
Cause I’m hopelessly in love
You can call me unperfect
But who’s perfect?
Tell me what do I gotta do
To prove that I’m the only one for you
What’s wrong with being selfish?

I’ll be taking up your time
Until the day I make you realize
That for your there could be no one else
I just gotta have you for myself
Baby I would take good care of you
No matter what it is you’re going through
I’ll be there for you when you’re in need
Baby believe in me
If love was a crime
Then punish me
I would die for you
Cause I don’t want to live without you
Oh what can I do?

You can call me selfish
But all I want is your love
You can call me hopeless (hopeless)
Cause I’m hopelessly in love
You can call me unperfect
But who’s perfect?
Tell me what do I gotta do
To prove that I’m the only one for you

Why do you keep us apart
Why won’t you give up your heart
You know that we’re meant to be together
Why do you push me away
All that I want is to give you love
Forever and ever and ever and ever

You can call me selfish
But all I want is your love
You can call me hopeless (hopeless)
Because I’m hopelessly in love
You can call me unperfect
But who’s perfect?
Tell me what do I gotta do
To prove that I’m the only one for you

Selfishly I’m in love with you
Cause I’ve searched my soul
and know that it’s you
Selfishly I’m in love with you
Cause I’ve searched my soul
and know that it’s you
Selfishly I’m in love with you
Cause I’ve searched my soul
and know that it’s you..

To prove that I’m the only one for you
So what’s wrong with being selfish, selfish, selfish, selfish…
So what’s wrong with being selfish…

The Last Set (Hopefully)0

I was quite disappointed because I thought my therapy sessions are finally over. But then, my doctor advised me to have 6 more, and hopefully after that, I’ll be very okay. But my Medicard can’t shoulder it anymore because I already reached their limit in number of sessions. Dang.. :( I guess I have to pay them on my own. I just hope it’ll be all worth it this time.

Happy Birthday Mom!0

My mom celebrated her 47th birthday yesterday, June 19th. Coincidentally, the same birthdate as our national hero. Anyways, we just had a simple celebration at home. My mom and dad bought pancit and pizza, while my boyfriend and I bought her a strawberry cake and ice cream. My sister, Jezzy, just cooked sweet and sour pork. One of my mom’s cousin, uncle Juanet, came and brought 1 gallon of Rocky Road ice cream. Our stomachs were all full by the end of our dinner.

I hope my mom had an enjoyable birthday. Happy Birthday Ma!We love you!:)

The Lake House0

As part of our Father’s Day celebration, we watched this film at Blue Wave @ Marquinton..

The_lake_houseKate Forster is a doctor who starts exchanging letters with frustrated architect Alex Burnham. What links them is a unique home by the lake where they discover that they are actually living two years apart. They must then try to break this conundrum and do it before time catches up with them.

Official site: http://thelakehousemovie.warnerbros.com/

Comments: I love the trailer of this film (can be viewed at the official site), but I didn’t expect I’d watch it on the big screen. Nevertheless, I was a bit bored at first, and the story is quite slow-paced. But I liked the story, and you won’t get distracted by Keanu’s gorgeousness, hehe. A bit predictable but I enjoyed it still. The lake house structure is also nice..

Tenth Month0

At_esplanade_2Sometimes, the most important thing that we get from a relationship is not the guarantee of permanence, but the lesson that we learn from it when it fails. It’s not how much love we have received, but how much love we have given. It’s not how many tears we have shed, but how much laughter we have shared. It’s not how many times we were accepted, but how many times we understood when we were rejected. In the end, it’s not always how much happiness we have had because of love, but how much we have given that made others happy.

Happy 10th Monthsary my Angel! I Love You! :)

24 Hours0

Cueshe_3Here’s a very nice song from the band who got most of the awards from the recently concluded Myx Music Awards, Cueshe.. Enjoy!

24 Hours
Cueshe

I’ve been lying here and wide awake
Till the night dies out and day to break
Every minute seems like endless hours
When I’m with you

I miss your eyes, your smile and lovely face
I can’t forget those sweet embrace
We both could share our endless dreams
If you were here

Doesn’t matter if I’m alone
I got a place I call my own
I don’t care if you’re away
Cause I know you’ll be back someday, someday

I guess it’s better if we were off that way
We’ll find ourselves and come what may
If I could have one wish then I will beg
For you to stay

Doesn’t matter if I’m alone
I got a place I call my own
I don’t care if you’re away
Cause I know you’ll be back someday, someday

Oh.. Oh.. Oh..

I’ve been lying here and wide awake
The sun has come for the moon to take
I never thought that we could end like this
Wish you were here

Doesn’t matter if I’m alone
I got a place I call my own
I don’t care if you’re away
Cause I know you’ll be back someday, someday

Someday..

To be Continued..0

I finished my last session of therapy last Tuesday and returned to my doctor for checkup. It took me until 530pm to have my turn, finally. Good thing my doctor is really nice, even if her schedule is only up to 4pm, she tried to accomodate all her patients. Anyways, according to her, my condition has already improved, but advised me to continue 6 more sessions of therapy for my condition to really go back to normal. And of course, more medicines.

My therapist is also very nice. He anticipated already that I shall continue my therapy, so he told me in advance that we’ll be having the same schedule, just in case.

Seems like I’ll be going back and forth to the hospital for the next 2 weeks. I hope that will be it..

Happy Fiesta!0

My family got a chance to go home in our province in Batangas last Friday afternoon to take part in the Barrio Fiesta there before school starts the following week. Too bad my boyfriend was not able to come..

I had to leave early from work so my folks could fetch me. Riding in our van, we headed straight to Batangas, and arrived an hour early for the annual "Prusisyon", which I became a part of a couple of times already, a few years back, hehe. Girls, kids and teenagers alike, donning those nice gowns, and walking on the full-length street of the barrio together with their respective escorts. Too bad, none of our immediate relatives participated this year. Last year, my younger sister, Janine and her escort, our cousin, Cyronn, were part of it. My other 2 younger girl cousins also participated. Unfortunately, it rained quite hard early that evening, and the participants got wet in the rain on their way back to the church.

We visited our relative’s house and ate dinner there, and my parents chatted with them for a while. There was also a show that evening in the public elementary school, but we chose not to go since we’re all tired and sleepy already, and we’ll be going back home to Marikina early morning the next day.

We wish we could have stayed longer or had a vacation there, but due to our busy schedules, we can’t make it this year. Hopefully we’ll have the chance next year.. ;)
