GT: I Once Hate the Song

I would assume some of you just love the song "Love Moves In Mysterious Ways" while I once hated it. Before, hearing just the introduction of the music makes me feel so annoyed.

It's because of an ex-boyfriend who sang it for me over the phone three days before our break up. While he was singing it to me, I felt just how romantic he was. That is without me knowing that the song was not really dedicated to me but for somebody else. I began to realize that after three days had past.

Love moves in mysterious ways, it's always so surprising how love appears over the horizon - so mysterious and really surprising that it vanished instead at the least time expected.

And that is now just a history. I'm trying to learn to love the song again. I am no longer affected and I have accepted the fact that it is not us whom are destined to live together for the rest our days.

PBW: Tired of Doing Nothing

After two months, we get to visit again my future in-laws. I am one of those luckiest women to have in-laws like them. Every time we are in their place they do almost everything.  They - my future nieces, sisters, brothers, and parents in-law.

They take care of  Coi all the time, do the cooking, serve the food, wash the dishes while I just let my back rest on the sofa or in bed just watching a tv show or browsing the internet with either iPod or laptop.

Sometimes I feel really shy about these scenarios but they are the ones whom are so persistent leaving me with no choice but to sit back and relax.

So this past weekend I really got tired of doing nothing - just watching Coi playing with his friends.

GT: Movie for An Enemy

I guess I was forced to become a movie enthusiast on this month's GT. Honestly, I do not watch movies that frequent. My friends are actually making fun of me every time we get inside a movie house as I am expected to fall asleep no matter how good a film is.

I preferred to be on the positive side of a story for this week's theme and has picked something which portrays a good outcome between enemies.

I typed on google the phrase "movie about reconciliation" and was directed to:

As usual I have not seen this movie, I believe this has not been shown yet. It may not necessarily  illustrate a scenario between enemies but it stresses the importance of forgiveness, accepting our responsibility for the mistakes we have made and the pain those mistakes have caused others.

No matter how painful the things that we have gone through it would still be best for us to open our hearts and be more than willing to forgive anybody who hurt us.

Injured

Last night we had our first volleyball practice for our sport fest. This is my first time again playing this game after three (3) years of rest. Brought about by too much excitement, I played a lot. I had fun playing especially when we were on scoring betting for a can of soft drink. My team was lost in the first set but we had our revenge on the next. I enjoyed the game without even noticing that my arms were really in pain. When I get home they were already swollen and now they had bruises.

my right arm - with bruises not obvious... hehe!

Our next game was scheduled on Saturday, hope I will no longer feel its pain and expect that I will not get to this point again.

PBW: Amicah's Birthday

Amicah is the daughter of my friend's (Beth) sister (Ate Mae). We have witnessed almost every important occasions of Ate Mae and Kuya Jeff's life.

and yesterday as it was Amicah's first birthday:

Yesterday was really a fun-filled day celebrating Mic-mic's first birthday. There were games and prizes, clowns with their balloon and magic tricks, dancing Susie spaghetti (the mascot) and of course Shakey's food served before us.

We just missed a person here, and it was dhang. It was the first time she wasn't able to join us as she is now based in Dubai.

Hope we can get together as soon as she comes back.



 

Go Green Friday: Coi's Green Costume

This is My Prince ---> Macoi wearing his green Robin Hood costume I bought last November 2009 for his treat or trick activity.

I will never forget that instance as we came in late in the afternoon to the mall as there was a typhoon that struck our area during the morning.

But at least he was able to enjoy. Better late than never.

GT: Movie for Siblings

I have not really watched this flick but this is something I thought worth for sisters. I grew up without a sister beside me as I cannot withheld the fact that I was a product of a broken family. I have two (2) sisters from my father's side and one (1) from my mother's.Of course, we do have a lot of differences. Before, there are times that I envy them feeling like they took my parents away from me. But now that I am grown up woman  and a parent already, I guess I have nothing to envy at all.

Sisters can really be friends and rivals too. On the other hand, my friends are whom I have considered my sisters for a long time now. I even sometimes utter that I cannot live without them. We became rivals at times but we take things as a joke.

I remember back in college, we have this list of crushes but the funny thing is it turned out to be a "one for all- all for one" set-up. Anyways, those are for the purpose of infatuation only. Obviously, we can no longer do it to their husbands this time.

This will be my entry for this week's GT. 

Back to Book

When I was cleaning our sleeping area during the last weekend, I happened to get through my mini library. My attention then was caught by a book which was a gift for me.

It was given by my ex-boss and friend in the past New Year. I therefore realized that I am not yet done reading it and so I took it from there, put it on my table and brought it to office this morning.

Prior to going home after work, I read some of its pages which had really made me laugh.

Bo is indeed one of the best writers I have ever known. He is even good in preaching and all. I promise to read it within the week despite my busy blogging schedule as some of my office mates are waiting to have it borrowed from me.

By the way, my ex-boss has her blog as well. So please find time to visit here at Meowl: All in A Cat's Life.

This will be my share for:

Green in Me

I simply love green. It's my favorite color. Any shade of green will do - apple green, moss green, military green, mint green, neon green, light green and so on and so forth. It's the same way as I love nature. Just last night I have done a sort of make-over to my blog's design. Have you noticed it? Maybe not that much, as the color hasn't change from green to green still.

The only thing that made me more like it is the personally chosen color combination of greens. Hehe! And the background with which symbolizes myself - leaf.

I really cannot explain further why I love this color. It's just that for me green is pleasing to the eye and it makes me feel calm.

I preferred green as well to some of my personal belongings except for my dresses which I only have a few as I feel like it doesn't blend well to my skin's complexion.

But anyways I just love green. I can even ride on green jokes sometimes - that's the green minded me.

And I never though a Meme like this exist, and so I joined for the first time...
