so it's goodbye again

As I've said, I QUIT MY THEN LIFE! Oohh, It's feels so good to say that. Haha! It's crazy for some, but for me, it's some sort of bravery. Because you know what? I have always lived my life according to the rules. Within my comfort zone. Where it's safe and sure. I've always been resistant to change, scared of taking chances, of risking what's already good. But finally, after 26 years of existence, I decided to jump to the unsure. I quit my job without any definite plans. Sure I know I want to work abroad sometime soon but heeyyy, I even haven't updated my resume since college. :) I also moved out of our place in Eastwood. I already lost count with the number of times I moved in and out of bed spaces, apartments and condos. Now I'm back with my parents. In a blink of an eye, I am where I was four years back. And I cannot be any happier. I  trust God's great plans and I know I am exactly where He wants me to be. At least, for now.

So, in line with the drama that is my life, here are some snapshots of my last days in the metro. I met with Sheena and Dwin first - my forever travel buddies. How many times have you heard that line from me? Haha! We had dinner at Serye and chilled a little at our condo. I didn't like Serye by the way. The food's not worth its price. Ha! Since when did I become a foodie? Scratch that, it's still worth a try.

two of my favorite people

Next, I had some sort of despedida with Badjao and friends. Flashback Boracay!! Yeahh, those people. Luckily, it's also Monique's birthday celebration so we got to divide the expenses. Wohoo! It was a simple get together of food, drinks and logic games from dusk til dawn. I still can't get over the fact that I didn't made it to the moon.. It was like, pupunta ako sa buwan, isasama ko si Jabey, ikaw sino isasama mo? Hahaha! You know those types of games. I didn't realize that buwan really meant months of the year so you have to answer with names starting with the first letter of the months.. J for January, F for February and so on. See? I really can't get over it. It was a dismay to my intelligent genes. Hahaha!

Adding our crazy vid from that day. Tiny & Ivan's take on the i-Dawn Zulueta mo kooo craze.


Lastly, I had an unplanned shopping sesh with Jov. One morning, I was hanging out at Caffe Bene alone when I thought of sending her a text message. Voila! In the afternoon, we're at Megamall looking for her stuff. She made me her personal shopping assistant. C'mon! Me? Just shopping assistant? Yeep! I took away my shopping rights since I quit my job and I can't afford to run low on funds that early. We also watched Sisterakas so I had fun still. 

everyone, meet Jov

That's it! I'm still contemplating whether I should start working on my resume or sleep the rest of the afternoon away. I seriously hope I choose to do what's right.

see you soon, ate val

I realized I already have a long list of life events and tons of pictures waiting to be published so here I am, blogging, when I should really be sleeping. Stubborn, as usual, I know. :D

Last month my cousin migrated to Canada to reunite with her hubby. But before that she had her despedida with the family at Yang Chow, Eton Centris. I am my usual gorgeously messed-up self that day so I wasn't able to make it to lunch. I only ingested a grande coffee jelly from Starbucks since the morning and I can't imagine how it lasted until late in the afternoon. Pakamatay sa gutom ang peg, why not? 

we'll miss you, ate val

We stayed a little longer in the park for some photo ops. The kids and probably the kids at heart too enjoyed riding the motorbikes and trolleys. I wasn't able to try that trolley thingy 'cos I'm in a formal, not to mention, hot blazer. Baka lalong umiyak ang kili-kili ko. Hihi. I can be gross sometimes. :P

clockwise: the guys, mom and dad, the gals, tita Ester

the kids

more kids and the kids at heart ♥

And on that day, the bermuda grass witnessed how crazy my niece and I can get. We were literally rolling on the floor, or should I say on the grass, laughing. I'm really afraid I'll forever be silly and that one day my niece will grow up just as cray cray.

Bedtime! Let us thank the good Lord for all His blessings today. Sending goodnight kisses to everyone. Ilag na lang yung may ayaw, ha? :)
