GCV's Birthday Surprise!

Good morning peeps!

Today is the birthday of our Admin. General Manager, Gerardo C. Velarde. He is also known as GCV or sir Gerry but he also would like to be called "Tatay Gerry".

Yesterday, we surprised him with a birthday cake and a gift. A day before, we (HR, Logistics & Facility) agreed that nobody will greet him until 4:00 PM. According to my officemate, Jenny Ramos, he overheard GCV singing "happy birthday to me" while walking towards visitors' area. And as if talking to himself, "walang bumabati sa akin ah!".

Then 4:00 PM came! The cake is ready....we gathered at the Clinic....then we started singing....

"♪♫ Happy birthday to you...
Happy birthday to you...
Happy birthday, happy birthday,
Happy birthday to you! ♫♪♥♥"

We saw his face lit up when he saw us!

Miss my blog :-(

Yes, I miss my blog.

Though I always log in, I never had the chance to post some important happenings in my life, in my family, even the birthday bash that I promised to post monthly...WTH!

Okay, enough of that. To begin with, allow me to refresh my mind on everything that has happened from March up to present, some are good but mostly bad.

March

I consider March as a bad month for me this year. Waeyo? Because Jason was hospitalized from March 6 until March 12, 2012 due to Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever Stage 1. And of course, I took care of him while in the hospital meaning, I was absent from work for 6 days! Glad I still have my job when I came back hehe.

Oh, and another thing. Alex had a freak bicycle accident last March 31. He was on his way to my mom's house when the fork of his bicycle was cut into half and he fell on the pavement face first. He sustained bruises on his forehead and nose and 3-stitches on his philtrum. During the first few days, he wasn't able to speak and eat properly because there was a big crack on his lower lip which eventually became a mouth sore. But he's okay now. The stitches have been removed, the wound is already healed though it left a small scar, as expected. But the f_ _ _ _ _ g mouth sore is still there! But over all, he's doing well. In fact, he's planning to join the fun bike on April 28 organized by the City of Taguig for the Mutya ng Taguig motorcade.

On a lighter note, my niece was baptized last March 25 at Sagrada Familia Parish Church. I was the one in-charge of the picture-taking although some of the godparents also took pictures.  Because of the baptism, I wasn't able to attend the debut party of my bestfriend, Claire (sorry). I was included on the 18 candles. But since I wasn't able to attend, I wonder if they changed it to 17 candles? Hahahaha, just kidding. Lola, if you happen to read this, don't get mad. (I fondly call her lola XD).

April

Let me greet first our sexy charisma....Happy Birthday, Park Jung Min! Fighting! Hahaha! How can I forget our boys' birthdays???

April....April...April....not so good month for me. Mainly because we had a reorganization in the office. If before I was only handling Employee Benefits, starting April 1, Employee Services is also mine. Which means all concerns related to employees' service will go through me. What the heck! I have no choice anyway. It's either I accept it or I resign!!! I choose the former obviously since I am still here hahahaha.

Oh my....I think it's already a long post. I will save the rest of my thoughts for the next post.

Annyeong!

Belated Valentine Greetings :)

I know this is a late post since yesterday was Valentine's day, but please, just give me the liberty of posting even if it's late LOL!

I wasn't able to post yesterday because I brought my son to MPI-Medical Center Muntinlupa. He was suffering from diarrhea since Sunday morning and I was afraid he might get dehydrated so off we go. Thank God he's okay now. Thanks to his very kind and accommodating pediatrician, Dr. Jea Halum.

Moving on, I texted my friends to greet them a Happy Valentine's Day but the text came a bit late also. I think I was able to send the text around 11am since I was at the hospital that time attending to my sick son.

Anyways, I want to grab this opportunity to greet the important people in my life a Happy Valentine's :

My mom, Angie and my brothers, Darwin, Dennis and Don!

My sisters-in-law, Ate Fe, Menchie and Grace

All my relatives....

My sisterhood - Frelyn, Lele, Jerah, Yellie, Kdin, Mar, Shiela, Marie, Ivee and Ria

My TS friends - Cressa, Sol, Verna, Charm, Danie, Denise, Frances, Mels, Roselyn, Ems, Jeree, Akee, Julie, Jehd, Azette, Ate Cleng, Ate Shey, Ychan, Jane, Nerie, Shane, Kheena, Angel, Myoce, Wingwing, Mag and all the rest (too many to mention keke)
Rhenz - miss you dear!

And of course, how can I forget the 5 namja I truly love - Kim Hyun Joong, Heo Young Saeng, Kim Kyu Jong, Park Jung Min and Kim Hyung Jun.
And the other namjas I adore - Hyun Bin and Jang Geun Suk :)

What about my husband?  Well, I have a separate story about him.

My husband never gave me even  a single rose petal during our courtship period. Knowing us women, one of our kilig moments is when a guy gives us flowers, right? He never did! He reasons out that it's not practical and that he prefers to buy food for me rather than spend  his money to unimportant things.

But yesterday was a different story!

Since Jojo, our eldest son, was only allowed to eat fish (due to his diarrhea), I instructed him to go to the market to buy some fish. I was expecting him to arrive after at least 45 minutes but an hour had passed and he was nowhere in sight. So I just thought that maybe,  he was already at home cooking dinner for us.

After awhile, I heard a slight "commotion" from the outside. It was my cousins saying something not clear to me. As he was coming near me, the cheers became louder and I noticed that he was hiding something behind him.

And taaddaaah! He gave me a white rose!

He said it is the symbol of his pure and sincere love for me. Wow! Can you beat that? I was so touched....

Just sharing!

Annyeong!

10.10.10 Run for the Pasig River

Good morning peeps!

Saw this set of pics in my computer and I just love the color of our shirt here so I am posting these here eventhough it's really, really late. It's the color of Triple S, ne?

While my friends are busy posing for a shot, I was busy wiping the sweat from my face :)

There I was...lost in space again....grrrrr!!!!

Here are some of my favorites :

Showing off our Finisher's Band!



The Finisher's Band



My bib number!

 As you know, I wasn't able to join the 11.20.2011 Run for the Pasig River since I was down with pneumonia that time :( .... Hopefully this year, with God's grace :)

Annyeong!

Bonding with my 2 "daughters"

Just a quick post before I go out of the office.

I had a dinner date with my 2 "daughters", Mutya, who calls me 'Nay Dang and Tess, who calls me Mami Dang which turned into Mami Ninang Dang last Wednesday, January 18, 2012 at Kenny Roger's in Festival Mall, Alabang.

I want to share with you some pics :

The one in eyeglasses is Tess while the other one in ponytail is Mutya

Now that's not what I wanted to emphasize. It's the shirt that I'm wearing that day....

Need I say more?  :)

Annyeong!

Goodbye 2011...Welcome 2012!!!

2011 has passed!  And looking back, I realized I have so many things to be thankful for.

I thank the Lord …..

…..For the health he has given me and my family. Well yes, I had pneumonia but I am just so happy that I am well now.  And hopefully, I will be well for the entire 2012 (and the years to come J)

……For keeping my family safe from  harm.

…..For my mom who celebrated another birthday with us. She just turned 65 last December 20 and with no medical conditions except for occasional rheumatism which I think is just normal for her age J

…..For my husband who, even if it is against his will (I know it because I can feel it), still supports my fangirling

……For my kids, Jonathan and Jason, for being good and obedient children (though I must admit, there are times I just want them to disappear from my sight hehe)

……For looking over my Kuya’s family while he works abroad

……For my job, for without it I may not be able to support my family’s little whims

…..For letting me know SS501. The only Kpop boy group that I love and will continue to love. I’ve been a fan since Feb. 2010 and I’ve seen how they truly love one another and how they care for their Triple S. Not to forget that through them, I gained friends. SS501 Mansae!!!

……For being a an official Triple S since April 2010.

……For letting me meet my TS friends and I would like to mention their names – Frelyn, Lele, Yellie, Jerah, Kdin, Mar, Ria, Shiela, Marie, Ivee, Charm, Cressa, Danie, Denise, Frances, Sol, Verna, Ate Cleng, Azette, Jeree, Ems, Julie, Jehd, Ychan, Rovina, Joy, Chelly, Jane, Glazelene, Roselyn, Mels.

……For my TS textmates…you know who you are J (too many to mention)…though we haven’t met personally, it seems like we’ve been friends since time immemorial….thanks to SS501 for that J

……For my chatango friends, specifically Shane and Kheena.

……For giving me my overseas friends – Angel from Romania, Mag from Malaysia, Wingwing from US, Myoce, Fennel, Joongana, Rhezin all from Indonesia. Thanks for the friendship J.

…….For giving our family another blessing. And my Mom’s most awaited blessing at that!....A GRANDDAUGHTER!!!....Yes, it’s confirmed. My sister-in-law (with my youngest brother), who is scheduled to give birth next month, is having a baby girl! At last, a female grandchild for my mom and a niece for me. Why am I so happy? Check this out – I have 2 sons, my Kuya Darwin has 2 sons and my younger brother Dennis has a son! No sister, no daughter, no niece??? Now you know…. J

There are still so many things to be thankful for….And there may not be enough space to enumerate them. What’s important is that I give thanks to whatever blessing I have now.

Annyeong!
