Welcome Home Powder

Former Name: Kulit

Current Name: Powder

Beth gave us a puppy. Yay! I think my youngest sister was the happiest. We love dogs. We named him Powder... because he's white... and smelled of powder when given to us. Our cat (Moshi) does not mind the new dog. Piper and Periwinkle does not mind either (they are the timid ones). Pebbles and PaoPao, well... they are what they are.

Welcome home.

One Dreamplace Down...

I voted for an international outing (Macau). But it was too expensive for a 3D2N summer outing. So the cluster opted for a 3D2N local outing. It was relatively less expensive... And to my greatest joy, the local outing was in Palawan! Yay!

My first airplane ride was 15 years ago. And I didn't remember how it actually felt back then. Sosyal, naka-plane pa kami. =)

With the OC2 cluster new staff... the babies. The young, fresh and vibrant.

Boat ride to Pandan Island. May epal na boatman (naka-shades).

Tambay sa beach at kalimutan ang trabaho.

Sabang beach for Underground River.

Oooohhh... clear blue waters.....

Palabas ng cave...este... Underground River nga pala

The young, fresh and vibrant new staff... looking towards beyond and after....blah blah

Had a blast in Palawan! I hope I can go to Coron and El Nido too. Someday... *sighs* *daydreams*

San kaya outing next year?

San na kaya ako next year?

Maybe here. Maybe there. Maybe nowhere.

The Green Green Grass of Home

I'm home. Home sweet home. I love Home!

Masaya sa tunay na bahay. Ngayon ko lang na-a-appreciate ng lubusan.

May pagkain na pag-gising.
May pagkain pag-uwi mo.
May ulam na hindi palagi delata at pinirito.
May aso na sumasalubong sayo.
May pusa kang malalaro.
May mga instrumento kang matutugtog.
May telepono na pang-internet.
May damo sa likod ng bahay.

Hindi ikaw ang naglilinis ng CR.
Hindi ikaw ang naglalabas ng basura.
Hindi ikaw ang nagbabayad ng kuryente at tubig.
Hindi mo gastos ang pagkain mo.

Okay lang mag-ingay magpasawalang-hanggan.
May cable at malinaw ang TV.
At iyong-iyo ang buong kwarto mo.

I love Home!

I survived the first month of the year without asking for any allowance! Hahahaha! Paid for my rent, my expenses, and of course... saved some. Wala nga lang pang-shopping. Pwede naman pala ako mabuhay sa sweldo ko lamang. Hihihihihi.
