I trust you…

I know I talk a lot about me and my husband… I am just into our relationship. I love my husband. Just can’t stop thinking about some of the nicest things my husband ever said to me.

We were in college. I already had a crush on him. We were enrolled coincidentally in the same Physics class. He always came in late because he accidentally enrolled in another class that ends an hour after our Physics class starts. I still remember preparing extra paper and ballpen for him. I also remember how I neatly and carefully wrote down notes because I knew he would ask me to let him read it. One time he and one of his closest friends were so late that all he could do was ask me about the error percentage of our experiment. I told him I was not sure but nevertheless gave him an answer. I tried to tell him I was afraid it was not correct but all he said to me was “I trust you.” It was music to my ears. I became confident about myself. I felt happy I was appreciated.

Women are simple. Their happiness is simple. All it takes is just a little act of kindness and sincerity and that is it, you will surely take their breath away…

This is not for men only but I think this also applies to women as well.

New Moon

New MoonToday is our 8th year and 2nd month anniversary! We do not always celebrate monthsaries but we never fail to greet each other and say ” I Love You…” If I forget, he reminds me which happens most of the time. But it is different today. I greeted him first! We were so busy to prepare love notes or special ideas so I decided we go out and watch a romantic movie. Just in time! We chose to watch New Moon.

It was a nice movie. Although I was expecting more action, found out it was more about expressing thoughts and feelings. I was so sleepy when we were watching it but somehow I loved the ending when Edward made the proposal. Though I was not really satisfied, the ending is just so intriguing. I can’t wait for the next saga…

The Twilight Saga…

Everyone in the office were already talking about it, The Twilight Saga. My co-team leader Ben told me to register already for a free movie. I was so excited however the slot was already closed. I was disappointed. The movie was scheduled to be shown for free by our company for all its employees on November 21. We have a team outing scheduled on the same day. My shift ends at 1pm. The only time slot I was aiming for is the 3pm and its full. I did not register anymore. I will just watch it on a different time together with my husband.

It’s my sister’s 27th birthday!

Birthday cake photo from mychictrove.wordpress.com

It is my sister’s 27th birthday today! I wonder what she wants for her birthday. My sister already has a baby daughter who is turning 5 months old tomorrow. When I asked about the celebration she told me she will not prepare that much. I understand. Now, that they have a baby to take care of and considering the expenses I know that she will not spend much for her birthday as a responsible parent. I am happy now that she has a baby. I am planning to give her something that can be useful for her and her baby…

Happy Birthday Shannon!

3 months old and growing…

My 3-month old babyWe arrived at our apartment from the clinic. I was smiling as I was reminiscing what I just saw in the 2-D ultrasound. My baby is already 14 weeks old or approximately 3 months old. I can still remember how happy my husband was when he saw our baby move his arms. I myself could not wait to feel him move inside my tummy. According to my doctor, I might not feel his movements yet as he is still very small.

Unofficially, my OB said the baby might be a little boy. My husband was very happy and was already planning about what he will teach him when he grows up. He wants to teach him wall climbing, board games such as chess and scrabble. I hope that my baby also loves to do these things with him…

whole body massage

Body massage photo from hideawayinn.comI woke up early today at 4am and as expected my husband was still asleep. Considering that early in the morning and he was up so late last night doing the laundry, I did not bother to wake him up. So, I went downstairs, took a bath, and watched some of my movie collections. After watching “Surrogates” and “The Proposal” I decided I need to give him something to pay off what he did for me and my baby!

I thought a whole body massage should be appropriate. He might have suffered muscle pains from all the squeezing and carrying basketful of clothes to the clothesline. Since I do not have the expertise to do body massage I decided to check youtube.com for some demonstrations. No sweat! I learned it in just minutes. So I went back upstairs and started to apply what I have learned. He was appreciative and asked me where I learned it from. I didn’t tell him the whole story. I was happy also at least I was able to make him feel good that day ready for Manny Pacquiao’s fight versus Miguel Cotto!

doing the laundry…

Laundry photo from ehow.comWent home today and saw my husband doing the laundry. I did not bother him because I know how tiring it is knowing that we had 2 weeks worth of soiled clothes. He is somewhat “kuripot” so instead of hiring someone to do it he insisted in order to save 300 to 600 pesos. Well, I can say that’s a lot of savings already. So I just agreed with his idea as the head of the family.

I was thinking… Will he keep on doing this for the next 6 months? I don’t think so. hehehe! Sooner or later he will ask me to find someone to wash our clothes… :)

What can a girl do?

I Like You!!!

Growing up is not easy especially when you are falling in love. As this might almost always be happening to teenagers, this is also happening to women in their mid 20’s. Well, when a woman gets old she becomes desperate. She gets so stressed and is unable to concentrate on getting her man’s attention. So girls, I want to share to you how I got my man.

My attention was caught by this guy who is silent but maintains a dominant facade however still looks innocent and warm. I was quickly drawn to him that everytime I go to school I always look for him and just by seeing him makes my day complete already. I could not bear any longer just watching him as my desire to know him more gets stronger everyday. I somehow needed to do something.

One day, I learned that our guidance office was holding a seminar for relationship management. Thinking about the activities that we do related on the topic, I realized it might have an activity where we get to know other participants. I thought this is my chance. So this were the things I did.

I watched his every move that day. When I learned that he already registered to attend the seminar, I went directly to the area and looked up his name in the list. I found out he registered on a morning schedule. So what I did was, I also listed my name there: I decided to join the morning session with him and then the afternoon schedule with my friends so that they would not know what I was up to. So the next day, I attended the seminar and I was indeed correct! He was there! However, 2 things happened that day: 1) something broke my heart and 2) another mended it fast.

So what happened?!!! Each participants were given 3 small pieces of paper. Each 3 uniquely colored paper contained messages in it. You will give the paper that contains the message you want to say to the person you like. The messages were: 1) “I like you” – yellow, 2) “I want to be your friend” – green, and the last one, which I was really hoping to get from him, says “I want to know you more” – pink.  I was praying so hard to get it. So I told myself, I have to make my move. I planned to give him “I want to know you more.” so that he would know how I feel. Then, the moment had come for me to realize my plan. As I was walking toward him, my heart was pounding so hard, I could feel my face was turning red already. I kept on walking toward him with my heart full of excitement about what his reaction would be. Would I be rejected? Or would he give me the same message? If he does, is it sincere or just to reciprocate what I have given? I was confused but I held on to my plan. But something happened! Someone blocked my way! A girl blocked my way and gave him first the message I so want to tell him. I was hurt when he also handed the same colored paper. I was shocked! I was shocked that I could not get that pink paper. Then I realized, he did not know about my feelings. I was ashamed. I wanted to go back to where my seat was. And suddenly, he approached me. He gave me the yellow paper. Then he told me, “I am sorry. That girl gave me the pink paper so I decided to just give her the same. But I like you and I want to know you more.” I could not say anything. I was so happy deep inside. I was thinking he just gave that girl his paper but not the message. I was rationalizing what just happened. I thought if you care for a person and that person saw you give someone a favor then normally you would really try to explain what just happened to erase doubts from that person’s mind. I was thinking he cared for me enough to give such an explanation when I least expect it. I was relieved. I gave him the same message that he gave me. I was contented with just getting the yellow paper. Somehow, I thought to myself that is usually where relationship starts, liking someone. I think that was how the spark between me and my husband started…

So to conclude 1) does not mean you’re a girl, you will just wait. You also need to do your share. 2) When we say “Love will find its way to you”, we also say you need to be visible. 3) If you will never try, then you will never know. What is there to lose, when you never had it in the first place?

Eye Check-up

Aishwarya-rai's beautiful eyes

I registered for a free eye check-up today. I felt I needed to have my eye examined since lately my vision is becoming poor. I can no longer see clearly people’s faces 6 to 7 meters away from me. Objects seem to be blurry. This started when I was promoted team lead intern wherein I had to work overtime looking at computer monitors and then wash my face when I feel sleepy. I was abusive even up to now. I just hope it can still be corrected.

I am looking forward to the eye examination especially that it is free and they are giving 50% off for the eyewear.

Amazing Grace!

My Little AngelI have received wonderful gifts. In fact, I cannot count how many blessings I have received since I was born. My life, my talent, my parents, my brothers and sisters, my work, my husband. I consider all these as a favor from GOD to me and I am so grateful. GOD has never stopped pouring down his mercy and love to me. Now I am so happy, I received another gift. A gift of life, growing inside me. At last, me and my husband’s prayer was answered last September 17, 2009.

We just got married last December 2008 and I was already worrying about being pregnant already. It was because I went through an operation to extract an endometriotic cyst which errupted in my right ovary. After the operation, I was so anxious and was thinking I might have difficulty bearing a child since I only have one ovary left. Despite this, me and my husband decided  to tie the knot.

After 8 months of waiting, we now received what I consider one of the most amazing grace I have ever received from GOD. I now have a baby inside of me, a life to take care of and nurture and mold. I am so happy and I feel so blessed. Truly GOD works in a mysterious and most loving way…
