Sabi kasi BAWAL

3 bars of brownies + 1 chocolate drink = irritating and painful sorethroat

Yes, for the nth time, I am suffering from tonsilitis. I was advised not to take too much sweets while I am under medication. But that was one big No No Doc! That can't be possible.
I was born with a sweet tooth and nothing will separate me from my chocs!!! gggrrrrrrrr!!

The antibiotic injectable was way too painful too! Waaaaahhhhh!!! Poor me, I will have to endure it for 6 months.

Ok time to take the pill.

Updates

It's almost halfway of December and I haven't posted anything yet. Blame the series of events that has to be attended left and right. Good thing I'm a mouse potato today. Coz when you're out, chances are you'll shed money out of your pocket no matter how stingy a person is. And so today, I decided to stay at home and do some plurking...and blogging. Yey!

Here's what has happened from last two weeks:

1. Nov. 28 = SCC's "Maskara" Christmas Party at Dusit Hotel.
2. Nov. 29-30 = Zambales Tour (ClickniJhan, AceShot)
3. Dec 2-5 = Preparation for Bidding Part 1
4. Dec. 6 = TTNL at Gawad Kalinga Hiyas ng Maynila
5. Dec 8-11 = Preparation for Bidding Part 2
6. Dec. 11 = Oracle's Thankgiving Party for Partners at Spicy Fingers, Greenbelt 2.
7. Dec. 12 = Meet up with ex Officemates and another round of shopping.

For 3 yrs in a row, I have been part of the Hifi peeps in their quest to share blessings received or simply charity work every December to our less fortunate brothers and sisters. After all the preparations and coordinations, what was very rewarding was to witness every kid's smile, sound laughters, playtime moments and how their eyes sparkle on gifts and goodies they received. Twas so sweet of them to even presented a number for us. They're simply cute and adorable.

And ofcourse, I got a new haircut last Dec. 9. Yiheee!!!


Just in case, I wont be able to update this blog for the rest of December, Here's my warmest greetings to all

Have a Blessed, Merry Christmas Everybody!!!!

Early Gifts

Weeee!!! I got early presents from A and my Tita Ninang Maricel.

1. My new beach shoes. Love them so. Got them from Gateway branch coz they are the only branch who still have my size. I'm 4, from Kids section. hehehe.



2. And this one, was from Tita Ninang Maricel. Straight from Aussie. Yey! I can use them on my malling exercise! :D




See, I consider malling as an exercise now. Imagine the leg work you'll exert hopping from one shop to another. You stretch your arms and back too by trying to reach for racks with files and files of clothes that's on sale!!! That reminds me of the sale now at Trinoma. (NOv. 13-16) Geez, too many people. Imagine, I get stressed yesterday just by watching people passed by while I sat at Mr. Donut. They're like ants racing to some sort of sweets scattered all over the mall.

Well back to my new bag. I used this yesterday, ofcourse to match my red shoes. Every friday is wash day so we can wear maong pants and t-shirts.




Yesterday, I met Lady to treat her out for an hour facial at Dermstrata. It's my gift for her for Christmas since she wont be around to spend the holidays. :-(
It was already pass 8 when we finished but it's ok. We were both contented and felt 10X prettier and fresh. hehe. It was cold inside Dermstrata so we thought of something to warm us up. A joined us for dinner at the new Chinese Noodle House across Max's at Level 2. I had spicy spareribs noodles, Lady had fried pork chop noodles, while A had one of their house specialties. We ended the night sending Lady to her crib in Sampaloc and bid her with a kiss and good luck.

Have a safe flight to SG Lades! Mwah.

And speaking of gifts, I started to buy and wrap christmas presents this month to avoid rush-hour-last-minute-gift-shopping next month. Tomorrow, will visit Divi. Yikes! I will face another battle of tawaran+buhat+siksikan blues. I hope all will turn out well.

BTW, I will end this post by introducing Kelly Carebear. Got her from one of my shopping escapades at Trinoma. Isn't she super cute? She's the newest member of my mini stuff toys. And She's my favorite too.

Happy Birthday Bro

To my youngest Bro, Happy 15th Birthday Bunso!!!
It's sad that you are under the whether but it will not stop us celebrating this day.


Keep up your good grades and strive for the 90's.
Kuya A and I will treat you out next week. *wink*

Labsyuso. Mwah!

Sandosenang Sapatos

A nice, heartfelt story forwarded by a friend through email. 2001 Palanca 1st price winner.
After reading....I found myself in tears.....

Sandosenang Sapatos

ni Luis P. Gatmaitan, M.D.

Sapatero si Tatay. Kilalang-kilala ang mga likha niyang sapatos dito sa aming bayan. Marami ang pumupunta sa amin para magpasadya. Ayon sa mga sabi-sabi, tatalunin pa raw ng mga sapatos ni Tatay ang mga sapatos na gawang-Marikina. Matibay, pulido, at malikhain ang mga disenyo ng kanyang mga sapatos.
"Paano mo ba naiisip ang ganyang istilo? Kay ganda!"
"Siguro, dinadalaw ka ng musa ng mga sapatos at suwelas."
"Parang may madyik ang iyong kamay!"
Sa lahat ng papuri, matipid na ngingiti lamang si Tatay. Tahimik na tao si Tatay. Bihirang magsalita.
Lumaki akong kapiling ang mga sapatos na gawa ni Tatay. Madalas ay kinaiinggitan ako ng mga kalaro at kaklase ko. Buti raw at sapatero ang Tatay ko. Lagi tuloy bago ang sapatos ko kapag pasukan, kapag pasko, kapag bertdey ko, o kung nakatanggap ako ng honors sa klase. Ginagawan pa niya ako ng ekstrang sapatos kapag may mga tira-tirang balat at tela.
"Buti ka pa Karina, laging bago ang sapatos mo. Ako, lagi na lang pamana ng ate ko. Sa 'kin napupunta lahat ng pinagkaliitan n'ya," himutok ng isang kaklase.
Nasa Grade II na ako nang muling magbuntis si Nanay. Kay tagal naming hinintay na magkaroon ako ng kapatid. Sabi ng Lola ko, sinagot na raw ang matagal nilang dasal na masundan ako.
"Naku, magkakaroon na pala ako ng kahati sa mga sapatos! Pero di bale, dalawa na kaming igagawa ni Tatay ng sapatos ngayon."
Habang nasa tiyan pa si baby, narinig kong nag-uusap sina Tatay at Nanay.
"Nagpa-check up ako kanina. Sabi ng doktora, babae raw ang magiging anak natin!"
"Talaga! Kung babae nga, pag-aralin natin ng ballet . Gusto kong magkaanak ng ballet dancer ! Ngayon pa lang ay pag-aaralan ko nang gumawa ng mga sapatos na pang- ballet ."
Pero hindi lahat ng pangarap ni Tatay ay natupad. Nagulat kaming lahat nang makita ang bago kong kapatid. Wala itong paa. Ipinanganak na putol ang dalawang paa!
Nakarinig kami ng kung ano-anong tsismis dahil sa kapansanan ng kapatid ko. Siguro raw ay binalak na ipalaglag ni Nanay ang kapatid ko kaya kulang-kulang ang parte ng katawan. Nilusaw raw ng mga mapinsalang gamot ang kanyang mga paa. Isinumpa raw ng mga diwata ng sapatos si Tatay dahil mahal na itong sumingil sa mga pasadyang sapatos. O baka raw ipinaglihi si Susie sa manika.
"Nanay, bakit po ba walang paa si Susie?"
"Nagkaroon kasi ako ng impeksyon anak. Nahawa ako ng German measles habang ipinagbubuntis ko pa lang ang kapatid mo. At.iyon ang naging epekto," malungkot na kuwento ni Nanay.
Hindi na magiging ballet dancer ang kapatid ko. Malulungkot si Tatay. Araw-araw, ganu'n ang naiisip ko kapag nakikita ko ang mga paa ni Susie. Kaya pinilit ko si Nanay na muling pag-aralin ako sa isang ballet school (dati kasi, ayaw kong mag-ballet). Pero.
"Misis, bakit hindi n'yo po subukang i-enrol si Karina sa piano, o sa painting, o sa banduria class? Hindi yata talagang para sa kanya ang pagsasayaw," sabi ng titser ko sa Nanay ko.
Nalungkot ako. Hindi para sa aking sarili, kundi para kina Tatay at Susie, at sa mga pangarap na masyadong mailap.
Saksi ako kung paanong minahal siya nina Tatay at Nanay. Walang puwedeng manloko kay Bunso. Minsan, habang kami ay nagpipiknik sa parke, may isang mama na nakakita kay Susie.
"Tingnan n'yo o, puwedeng pang-karnabal 'yung bata!" turo nito kay Susie.
Biglang namula si Tatay sa narinig. Tumikom ang mga kamao. Noon ko lang nakitang nagsalubong ang mga kilay ni Tatay. Muntik na niyang suntukin ito. "Ano'ng problema mo, ha?"
Mabuti't napigilan siya ni Nanay.
Isang gabi, habang nakahiga kami sa kama , narinig kong kinakausap ni Tatay si Susie.
"Anak, hindi baleng kulang ang mga paa mo. Mas mahalaga sa amin ng Nanay mo na lumaki kang mabuting tao at buo ang tiwala sa sarili." Masuyo niya itong hinalikan.
Hindi tumigil si Tatay sa paglikha ng sapatos para sa akin. Pero napansin ko, kapag sinusukatan niya ang paa ko, napapabuntung-hininga siya. Pagkatapos ay titingin sa kuna.
"Sayang, Bunso, di mo mararanasang isuot ang magagarang sapatos na gawa ni Tatay." bulong ko sa kanya.
Lumaki kami ni Susie na malapit ang loob sa isa't isa. Hindi naging hadlang ang kawalan niya ng paa para makapaglaro kami. Marami namang laro na di nangangailangan ng paa. Lagi nga niya akong tinatalo sa sungka, jackstone , scrabble, at pitik-bulag. Ako ang tagapagtanggol niya kapag may nanghaharot sa kanya. Ako ang tagatulak ng wheelchair niya. Ako ang ate na alalay!
Noon ko natuklasan na marami kaming pagkakatulad. Parehong magaling ang aming kamay kaysa aming mga paa. Ako, sa pagpipinta. Siya, sa pagsusulat ng mga kuwento. At oo nga pala, si Tatay, kamay rin ang magaling sa kanya!
Minsan, ginising ako ni Susie. Sabi niya, nanaginip siya ng isang pambihirang sapatos. Napakaganda raw nito sa kanyang mga paa.
"May paa siya sa panaginip?" gulat na tanong ko sa sarili.
"Maniwala ka, Ate, kay ganda ng sapatos sa panaginip ko. Kulay dilaw na tsarol na may dekorasyong sunflower sa harap!"
Magbebertdey siya noon . At napansin ko, tuwing nalalapit na ang kanyang kaarawan, nananaginip siya ng mga sapatos.
"Ate, nanaginip na naman ako ng sapatos. Kulay pula ito na velvet at may malaking buckle sa tagiliran."
Binanggit din niya sa akin ang sapatos na kulay asul na bukas ang dulo at litaw ang mga daliri niya. Ang sapatos na puti na may kaunting takong at may ribbon na pula. Ang sapatos na yari sa maong na may burdang buwan at mga bituin. Ang sandalyas na parang lambat. Ang kulay lilang sapatos na may nakadikit na bilog na kristal sa harap.
Manghang-mangha ako sa kung paanong natatandaan niya maski ang pinakamaliliit na detalye ng mga sapatos - ang disenyong bulaklak, ribbon, butones, sequins , beads , o buckle . Inaangkin niya ang mga sapatos na 'yon.
"Ate, paglaki ko, susulat ako ng mga kuwento tungkol sa mga sapatos na napapanaginipan ko. Ikaw ang magdodrowing, ha?"
Paglipas pa ng ilang taon, namahinga na si Tatay sa paglikha ng mga sapatos. Gumagawa na lamang siya ng sapatos para sa mga suking di matanggihan. Noong nagdaos siya ng kaarawan, niregaluhan ko siya ng isa kong painting na may nakapintang isang pares ng maugat na kamay na lumilikha ng sapatos. Binigyan naman siya ni Susie ng isang music box na may sumasayaw na ballet dancer .
"Pinasaya n'yo ang Tatay n'yo," sabi ni Nanay.
Pagkatapos noon , naging masasakitin na siya. Labindalawang taon si Susie nang pumanaw si Tatay.
Isang araw, hindi sinasadya'y napagawi ako sa bodega. Naghahalungkat ako ng mga lumang sapatos na puwedeng ipamigay sa mga bata sa bahay-ampunan Sa paghahalughog, nabuksan ko ang isang kahong mukhang matagal nang hindi nagagalaw. Naglalaman ito ng maliliit na kahon. Mga kahon ng sapatos na maingat na nakasalansan!
" Para kanino ang mga sapatos? May umorder ba na hindi nai-deliver?" tanong ko sa sarili.
Pero nang masdan ko ang mga pares ng sapatos na 'yon, nagulat ako. Taglay ng mga sapatos ang pinakamahuhusay na disenyo ni Tatay. Iba-iba ang sukat nito. May sapatos na pang-baby. May sapatos na pambinyag. May pang- first communion . May pangpasyal. May pamasok sa eskuwelahan. May pangsimba. May sapatos na pang-dalagita.
Lalo akong nagulat nang mabasa ang kanyang dedication sa nakasabit na papel:
Para sa pinakamamahal kong si Susie,
Alay sa kanyang unang kaarawan
Inisa-isa ko ang mga kahon. Lahat ng sapatos na nandoon ay para kay Susie. Diyata't iginagawa ni Tatay si Susie ng mga sapatos?
Para kay Susie, lugod ng aking buhay
Sa pagsapit niya ng ikapitong kaarawan
Taon-taon, hindi pumalya si Tatay sa paglikha ng sapatos sa tuwing magdaraos ng kaarawan si Susie! Sandosenang sapatos lahat-lahat.
Handog sa mahal kong bunso
Sa kanyang ika-12 kaarawan
Napaiyak ako nang makita ang mga sapatos. Hindi ko akalaing ganu'n pala kalalim magmahal si Tatay. Binitbit ko ang sandosenang sapatos at ipinakita ko kina Nanay at Susie.
"H-Hindi ko alam na may ginawa siyang sapatos para sa 'yo, Susie." Namuo ang luha sa mga mata ni Nanay. "Inilihim niya sa akin ang mga sapatos."
"A-Ate, ito ang mga sapatos na napanaginipan ko." Hindi makapaniwalang sabi ni Susie habang isa-isang hinahaplos ang mga sapatos.
"Ha?"
Noon ko lang naalala ang mga sapatos na ikinukuwento ni Susie.
Dilaw na tsarol na may dekorasyong sunflower sa harap. Kulay pulang velvet na may malaking buckle sa tagiliran. Asul na sapatos na bukas ang dulo at litaw ang mga daliri. Kulay puti na may kaunting takong at may ribbon na pula. Sapatos na yari sa maong na may burdang buwan at mga bituin. Sandalyas na parang lambat. Kulay lilang sapatos na may nakadikit na bilog na kristal sa harap.
Naisip ko, tinawid kaya ng pag-ibig ni Tatay ang mga panaginip ni Susie para maipasuot sa kanya ang mga sapatos?
Hindi ko tiyak.
Ang tiyak ko lang, hindi perpekto ang buhay na ito. Gaya ng hindi perpekto ang pagkakalikha sa kapatid ko. Pero may mga perpektong sandali. Gaya ng mga sandaling nilikha ni Tatay ang pinakamagagarang sapatos para kay Susie.

Rest now, my sweet angel

It was on the 9th of Oct when I first saw you.
You were so small at your age. Thin and pale. Your body looks so fragile So I did not attempt to hold you nor come close to you. I learned that it was all because of a heart and lung problem.

From afar I just looked at you. Your body, your face, your eyes. Those eyes were like of your Dad. And from then on, I felt a leap in my heart. You are truely a part of the family.

And so the days pass and as usual, I went to my daily errands.
I seldom saw you but each morning i hear your cries.
When I'm home, i got the chance to stare at you longer, but still from afar. I didn't have the courage to carry you. I didn't care that much.

But you win my heart despite of me trying to snub you. Then I realized I'm buying you things one at a time. Baby booties, baby dresses, nail clipper. I was even excited to buy you stuff....loads of 'em. I was planning to give you that stroller for Christmas so we can stroll all day long at the mall.
I even demand that you call me "Tita Pretty". It was so cute when you stare at me while your Mom tells you..."Don't cry, magagalit si Tita Pretty". Then you stopped when our eyes met.

Then one day i heard the news when I was still at work.
Your condition became serious. I rushed to the hospital to checked on you.
My heart crashed when I saw you there lying on the bed with needles and tubes. Grasping for breath. Fighting for life. But i have to put a strong and brave face....for you Mom....for you Dad.

And finally, i had that chance to hold you coz your Mom had to tend on the paper works.
Your hands locked on my finger. It was an amazing feeling. I wanted to cry but hold back the tears. Each cry you made torn my heart. Each grasp for breath choked my throat. That time, I can feel your pain.
The Lord knows how I wept and beg for your recovery. How i bargain just to extend your life with us.

I decided not to see and visit you at the hospital today for I no longer can stand to see your agony. It send me shivers imagining your state through SMS updates I got from your parents...And like a candle your light slowly fade says your Dad.

I don't want to lose hope. I put my trust in the Lord. He created you and gave you life. Only him can take it back...God know's what is best for you. Thy will be done. I prayed and prayed from the time you were admitted until today. True enough He heard my plea. To spare you from all the pain and suffering your tiny body can stand no more. He ended it, just like blowing out a candle's light. You were 4 months old. Your light stopped to shine. Just like that.

And just like that, my dreams of us together....shopping...Christmas....your baptismal....your 1st birthday....all possible bonding moments....all gone. Though sad and in tears now, I have to accept it. We have to accept the truth.

Thank you sweety for visiting us. Thank you for your two-week stay at our house. You brought smile to us. You added light and colors to our lives. You make our house a home.
Our time together maybe too short but it was worth while. That less than 30 minutes of tending you, holding your tiny hands, telling you that all will be fine....were memories I wont ever forget.

Mamita and Lolo, along with your Tito's will missed you dearly. You will always be engraved in your Mom and Dad's heart forever.

Bring my kisses and my hugs as you go there in heaven to meet the Father.

I love you Baby.

- Tita Pretty

Bolinao is situated at the northwestern tip of Pangasinan and the Lingayen Gulf. It is bounded on the north and west by China Sea, on the south by the rolling hills and plateaus of Bani, and on the east by Kakiputan Channel; this body of water separates Bolinao from the only island town of Pangasinan.

The white beach in Barangay Patar is ideal for tourism purposes. Nearby is a freshwater source believed to be an outlet of an underground river. The surf is also ideal for board surfing.
