meet up with friends...

Two of my dearest high school and college friends are back in the country for a short vacation... and since they are both dear to me, I took a half day leave from the office to meet up with them :)

Lunch:
With Ida from Australia (and Hunyo) @ Mernel's Place LB where we had our favorite lumpiang sariwa, while Ida relating to me the details of her engagement to Tony, and showing me the the RING!
It was just a super happy lunch! And I'm super excited for the wedding :) See you again soon Ida!

Yummy!

Dinner:
With Anette from Brunei (and Christine) @ Ms Donald's SCL where we had the Fillet-o-Fish and lots and lots of McFries with lots and lots and lots of laughter!

Thanks very much Anette for the green tea! I hope it'll help me burn those calories from the chocolates! :)

Yummy too!

Eating and laughing with your dearest friends = PRICELESS!

♥♥♥

the Davids!

With my sisters that are all addicted to the Davis, we watched the concert last night at the Mall of Asia concert grounds. We had a great time, even if we can only see them on the huge screens! =) It's a see of screaming teens!

Our song for the night ...too many barriers and...

Touch my hand

Saw you from a distance
Saw you from the stage
Something about the look in your eyes
Something about your beautiful face

In a sea of people
There is only you
I never knew what the song was about
But suddenly now I do

Trying to reach out to you, touch my hand
Reach out as far as you can
Only me, only you, and the band
Trying to reach out to you, touch my hand

Can’t let the music stop
Can’t let this feeling end
Cause if I do it’ll all be over, I’ll never see you again
Can’t let the music stop
Until I touch your hand
Cause if I do it’ll all be over, I’ll never get the chance again
I’ll never get the chance again
I’ll never get the chance again

I see the sparkle of a million flashlights
A wonderwall of stars
But the one that’s shining out so bright is the one right where you are

Trying to reach out to you, touch my hand
Reach out as far as you can
Only me, only you, and the band
Trying to reach out to you, touch my hand

surprise!surprise!

Everyday, I always look forward for my beautiful surprise. My officemates and I would always share stories of our surprises for the day. Be it a wonderful sunset, a flock of birds, beautiful wild flower, a very nice rain tree crown formation, the falling rain, a text or email from a long lost friend, chatting with an old crush, meeting an old friend, seeing a former professor, a reply from a collaborator, a friendster invitation from a sis whom you haven't seen in ages, or knowing that your "dream guy" is once again single and available, or... falling in line at the registrar's office to get the TOR that was supposed to be released weeks ago then finding out that you're standing next to your ultimate college crush! ♥  Isn't that great! But, my greatest surprise of the week!? Being one of the top scorers in my ENS 201 class! That was really unexpected! Well, God is really very good for giving us everyday surprises :)

hmmm, ano kaya surprise ko bukas?
