Day 25: Marian's Dad


Praying for the eternal repose of Marian's father Francisco De Guzman.

Difficult to accept the harsh realities of death. But I know that they are with our Lord now, in a much better place where there is no sadness, pain and sorrow. Only eternal life with Him.

Day 20: Banapple

Our recently resigned-from-Citi friend Brian, claimed his prize from one of the few recognition rites in our office. I think it amounted to almost 10k! Nice work friend! Sorry for disclosing it here, just a proud friend you got here;) Anyway, we didn't expect that he will share with us a portion of his prize. So tada! Off to his lunch treat in Banapple! Uber yummy!:) It was my first time to try the really famous bestsellers of this Katipunan-based resto. I should really go back soon and take more yummy photos of the food. 

After being stuffed with too much cake, pasta and ribs (my order! highly recommended!), here's a pic of me and my happily fed friends:

Day 17: Lisa Frank

While, doing my Christmas shopping for the kids at SM Makati, I stumbled upon this:

Day 14: Allergy attacks!

For the past two nights, I haven't slept well. Reason is, I suddenly wake up in the wee hours of the evening (or morning na ba?) and then my feet, hands and some parts of my legs are itchy all over! At first, I made peace with the itch by slathering crazy amounts of white flower ointment all over my skin which made it tolerable. Weird thing is, they are itchy but you can see no signs of insect bites. However, once the ointment is gone, the itch returns! Crazy indeed. I said to myself baka dahil sa anay to at Raffy's grandpa's house. During the mornings naman the itch is tolerable pero come night time, here we go again! Crazy itchiness all over! I cannot endure it anymore that's why I went to Makati Med to have it checked. It's really bad that I cannot sleep peacefully. Hay. 

Once I got my turn to speak with the dermatologist, she told me that I might be allergic to dust plus my skin's a bit dry. So she recommended me to buy this expensive perfume-free lotion and soap plus some 40pesos per tablet anti-hizzies:


Well, it worked! The crazy itchiness is gone. Hope it will continue to improve in the next couple of days. I don't wanna wake up again just to scratch myself all over. Keeping my fingers crossed!

Day 13: Gin Blossoms

One of my fave 90's artists just recently paid us a visit here in our dear Pilipinas! I'm a sucker for anything 90's and it is a MUST for me to see them perform live. Well I can say it is a dream come true for me. They sang hits like Till I Hear it From You, Follow You Down, Hey Jealousy, As Long As It Matters. Nakakapangilabot as described by my friend Mike.

Anyway here are some of our crazy photos! A great night indeed!
