Movie date

Last week was very tiring. Blame it to month end! Bwahaha! One week overtime si daddy kaya one week din overtime si mommy (sa pag-alaga kay baby). So yesterday, I asked Cesar if we could watch the movie Les Miserables just to relax. And also I missed hubby kaya nag-date si dudung at inday.

I so wanted to watch this on big screen. Highschool pa lang ako, which is not so long ago (ahem), I am already fond of listening to Les Mis songs. Ikaw ba naman ang magkaroon ng kapatid na mahilig sa theater. Back then, kuya has the complete set of the songs. Take note cassette tapes pa eto (I told you that was not so long ago haha!). We listen to these almost every day. Although, I haven't seen this on stage and I don't know the whole story, sa mga kanta pa lang, dude pare nakaka-hook na. And there were times when kuya is away, I will go to his room, play the songs, and (discreetly) sing along. I imagine myself as one of the casts, at feeling ko talaga ako si Lea Salonga ahihi.

Every scene in the movie, I could hear myself "ah yun pala yun", "wow! si wolverine kumakanta!" :)) I control myself not to sing along, baka kasi palabasin kami ng sinehan. But there's this scene when the people started to sing "Do you hear the people sing, singing a song of angry men. It is a music of the people who will not be slaves again...." Hala! Napakanta ang lola!! Haha! Hubby looked at me. Nahiya naman ako :)

But wait madlang people inside the movie house, why are you sobbing? All I know is that this is a story of a revolution. Hala! Nakakaiyak pala! Uy, kita ko si ate sa harap namin tulo luha...parang ako! Nyahaha!

That's how we end the week..

And because I still can't get over of the movie, before going to sleep, I watched Lea Salonga's version of On My Own on youtube. Haaaay..ang ganda lang talaga.

Aside from On My Own and I Dreamed A Dream, this song is one of my picks!

And the award goes to..


Congrats DADdy! We are so proud of you! All the hard work has paid off.
This is for Cesar's excellent job done on month-ends and for completing his CPA. Not to mention that he is a new dad! Nothing has been compromised. Superman, is that you?? :)

Enzo is a month-end baby! Saktong sakto sa busy days ni daddy :) I remember those days. Cesar brings his laptop when he visits me at the hospital so that he can still do the month end duties while mum and bub are sleeping. And when we came home, although hindi na month end and he was on faternity and study leave, during the day he goes to the library to study for his upcoming CPA exams. It's never been easy. And also for me. We were in the adjusting period as new parents then. I was also still recovering from the surgery because I had a cesar and I know that my body needs some rest as it carried the baby for nine months. And the nights before the exams, I told him to just sleep downstairs so he will not be disturbed at ako na lang ang bahala kay Enzo. I fully support Cesar on this kaya tiis tiis lang because I know that everything will be rewarded.

We are thankful to God for the wisdom, for the strength, favor and provision. I was reminded of this verse in Philippians 4:13, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." Looking back, I really can't imagine how we have gone through the difficult times. Our strength comes from Him.

Life itself is a school of faith. It is through these situations that our faith is challenged. He never leaves us. And indeed, God honors faith. 

I know that this is just a simple certificate but it means a lot to us :)
We bring back all the glory and praises to Him!

Three years ago

Cesar proposed marriage to me. The moment when the sun suddenly stood still, watching and waiting for my big "YES", the moment when I felt time suddenly stopped for me. The moment that I have been waiting for :) I was the happiest girl ever!! That moment that I can't wait to tell, "Hello world, I am engaged!!" (I can hear the song "I'm Yours" playing in the background hihi) And I slept that night with a big smile on my face. I felt like a princess who finally met her prince charming..

Refresh

Hello world! And welcome back to me :) With several reasons I have in mind, finally, I have decided to create a new blog. I just thought that it is time..time to start afresh.
