When Love begins to come

26 December, 2008

For the record, I just had the best Christmas!

Not that I had so many gifts or what, but this is actually the first time I ever felt the 'goodness' in Christmas. I have so many reasons to make this season a much more memorable than ever before:

1.This Christmas, it's the first ever that I have given so many gifts. I never really liked giving gifts precisely because they're too expensive! haha. But because God blessed me with so much, I gave out my blessings too. :)

2. For the very first time, I have seen my family giving gifts to the needy. As in they were packing used clothing and stuffs to give to them. Imagine that! This made me feel so glad.

3. My family and I are really in good terms. Really! My sister and I are back to talking mode after 6 months, my mom and I aren't quarreling anymore, my dad and I well, we're always good. For the first time after 9 years I felt love in them.

4. I bought myself so many clothes! Ghad, I really shopped and now I love shopping!!

5. I received gifts from slightly expected persons and not so expected ones. haha.

6. I really am having fun this break! oh, yeaaah!

7. There are soooooo many foooood. ugh, *fat*

8. I had a blast with my barkada. Kringle night, love them!

there's just so much more... but I can't find the exact words to describe them. But so far, these are what my mind can speak for now, but truly, my heart feels more. It's like I can now die now that I have felt this kind of happiness. haha. lovin' it, hard core!

14 December, 2008

On dates December 5-8, Beki, Ernie, Maki and I were blessed by a rare opportunity to fly to Manila for free. :) Our main goal there was to attend a Congress. KKP sent us there to represent Xavier. The whole congress was an experience worth to be reflected upon. It's like it gave me a chance to see how noble it is to choose simplicity and serve the poor and what an important task it is to do authentic service. :)
But, going to manila won't be complete without meeting close friends and making laag. This part, made everything worth it. Sleepless nights were nothing compared to the fun and exuberant moments spent with these people. I love the whole experience! ^_^

uhm, first and foremost. NAKATUNOB NAKO SA ADMU! ahahahaha. and take note, for free pah! weee. Si beki, ernie, maki and ako, tanan first timers... haha. I took this photo. Shot sa Hesu. Timing pa jud na atong night, ni abot ang mga Calatagan farmers.. Murag Sumilao version sa Luzon. :) Advocate pud si Chieney nila!

Ugh, this place, this very place. On the second night, Chieney, Cathy and Fr.Xrysz visited us and brought us to this place. Gosh, that place is so sweet! haha. :p Ernie and beki could attest to this. They had their choice of sweet almost exclusively for themselves! Uhm, lami ayo mga deserts dani. @_@

Here's the photo of the group. Reunion gallore kaayo. Cge lang mi katawaha. and take note, kami ang pinaka saba sa ubos, maski wala mi nangahubog. haha

Then after which, we went to a place called Xocolat. And it serves by its name. That place is full of chocolate. as in FULL of chocolate. From drinks to food, grabeh! Nahubog jud si maki sa chocolate. haha. After that experience, all of us (maki, beki, ton and ako) don't want to eat any food that has chocolates in or on it. Ugh, napura jud mi! haha. :)

and the reason behind all this laag. That Congress held inside admu. This is the photo of the participants. From expected 25 participants to more than 50! haha. Lugi jud kaayo ang sponsors ani, for sure. :) Thanks to the sponsors, kami 4 nakatunob ug admu. haha. :)
And here's the proof that beki's a hardcore drinker. Joke! haahaha. But beki liked the taste of this drink. She drank around 1 3/4 of a tumbler. Take note: this is the first time she engulfed rhum and gin, so yeah. She got tipsy and fell on the ground. Diba jom??? ahhahahaha. :) *peace bek*
On the third day, dada made libre here!!! We also saw his gf Camilla, she's so buotan and pweety! :) Uhm, Their food here is so yummy. :) You will love chinese food. haha. Thank you da for the libre! yummy. see you soon! ^_^ And weeee! the oh so famour MOA, finally naka sulod na jud mi. Though murag taman ra mi first building nagsuroy-suroy. haha. :)
And of course, the most awaited moment that kept me excited until that moment came to happen----> seeing my kuya after 3 years! ahaha. He's still the same, bataot gihapon! Thanks for staying after I made that drama. haha. :p
So that was our manila experience. We got to see jomi, yeye, chieney, father xrysz, cathy and dada. Murag HS reunion, so murag we had our XUHS alumni home coming version dadto. hahaha. Thanks to the people who made our stay there super fun and memorable! :)
