Vino danced on stage!

Omigash! That’s a huge milestone! Grabe, I was so ecstatic when bechu just went on stage and danced. Even if he looked like he was in a trance, it was just great to see him raise his hands, sway his hips and just looked at the teacher to follow her steps. My gush! This is one for the books! Love you bechu!!!



This one was taking last March 2010… he cried when he went up the stage so I had to pull him out. But now… October 2010, he actually just stayed there and danced!!! Awww!!! My bechu! Haay… I had tears in my eyes! Even hane was saying to give him a toy after this. Grabe! :D

a day before...

I celebrated my birthday on Oct 15, 1 day advance. I knew that my birthday would be all about celebrating with my family but I wanted just 1 day all for myself… no one to think about, do whatever I want. And I was great. I walk-jog-walked in the UP campus which is my favorite place early morning. Who wouldn’t fall in love with this view! I love walking (sometimes I do jog!) around this area, covered with huge trees, surrounded by morning energy, sunlight peeking through the trees… and the radio was actually cooperating with me… 89.1 was playing r&b songs that I love. It was just my kind of morning… and the I had a good breakfast by myself at banapple… o diba? I never knew that this would bring me pleasure – just lounging around, having a good cup of coffee, magazine and newspaper… and shhh… I had a slice of banapple pie! Hehehe! Hmm this could be my birthday tradition!

Then I spent the day with my hane. It was an eye opener for me… gush, I’m just grateful I’m married to a wise man. The things I think of and feel… it’s just too much sometimes… I lose sight of what really is important. My hane keeps me grounded. J

And the movie we picked was actually a good one! RED. I never really heard about it so first time I saw it I was like… naah… don’t want to watch b-movies today. But good thing I saw a mini trailer and it looks promising so I had to request our tickets to be changed from eat-pray-love to RED. It was actually great, I can watch it 2 or 3 times more. J the movie didn’t force Bruce willis to be the action star he used to be… even john malkovich and morgan freeman were just right for the part, they didn’t try to act out on their previous glory but just enjoyed their parts as old people. J they’re cute!

And I finally had a chance to go around trinoma, go inside shops that I want to go, walk and walk till I’m tired and just spend hours looking at stuff, trying out whatever. Before it was always with Vino so I wasn’t really free to stroll around… this is already small pleasure for me.

Cheers for small pleasure! I recommend that for every mom in the world… always look forward to small pleasures.

halloween dilemma

my gash, what did i get myself into?? i signed up as a parent representative in Vino's toddler school and now i have to coordinate this booth we need to decorate for the halloween party. i'm actually excited to do it... i have this concept of creepy crawlies... all yucky insects - against a backdrop of a huge anthill and a huge spiderweb. i feel that it's easy to do... not too elaborate. but this always happens to me! i get all these ideas... i have this image in my head, but come execution time... it goes flat! it's gonna be a challenge for me but i have to admit that i would need help.

i'll properly plan this, have a headstart so that by halloween party, it's just setting up the place. ARG! can't wait. :) watch out for the photo. :)
