Happy 25th.

It was my parents' 25th anniversary yesterday. My dad will be home next next week from Indonesia, so I was the one tasked by my dad to get flowers for my mom, roses to be exact. And man, I didn't realize how flowers could get THAT expensive. I mean I know they're expensive but I didn't know that it would be that costly. I always tell Ian i'd rather get food than flowers, except for probably rare occasions that you need to receive flowers in accordance to the occasion like for instance 25th wedding anniversary, which I think is apt. But for normal birthdays or anniversaries, I'm good without flowers :) My mom's just used to getting flowers everytime. My dad said it's okay to pay for expensive flowers than paying for an expensive party which is way way more expensive. Hahahaha.

Anyway, some stuff worth mentioning about my parents. One, they got married when they were 30 years old. If I have my story right, they were never really together 'together', they were just dating or something for a while,then they just decided to get married after my dad came from his work stint in Africa and some few weeks backpacking in Europe. I even saw a picture of my dad wearing a shirt that says, 'I did it in Amsterdam'. I found that picture hilarious! I'm not quite sure if he really did it there, haha, before he married my mom. Second, I'm a semi honeymoon baby. I didn't get conceive during their honeymoon because my mom had her period, but I probably got conceived right after because if you count, April to January is 9 months :) Since my mom was in her 30's already, she really wanted to get pregnant right after marriage. Hehe :D Third, they belong in the same group of friends, and well, Lucban, Quezon is a small town, they came from the same class I think during grade school, but they went to different high schools.

I know they don't read my blog anymore,but here it goes, Happy 25th Anniversary!

Christmas Happy Mode.

I can feel Christmas already! :) I love playing the song "All You Need Is Love" from Love Actually soundtrack, I think that's the best feel good Christmas movie. I'm such in a super happy-good-mood lately. Well for one, Ian's back! I guess I can account that as the primary reason haha ;) The next one, I'm almost done with my Christmas shopping, I think I'm down to less than 10 people in my list. I loooove shopping for gifts and putting time and effort wrapping them. In addition to these, I got an ipod and digicam for free! Wow. All in one day. The ipod was a gift to all employees in our office. Can you imagine that, ALL employees get 1gb ipod shuffle as gift by the owners/boss of the company. Merry Christmas to everyone! Haha. The digicam, I got it during registration for the company christmas party in Tavern, GB3, you pick a paper in a bowl, and tadaaah instant digicam. And of course, in the spirit of Christmas, I didn't hoard these things for myself. I already have an ipod, and I've always wanted to give one to my brother so I gave it to him. For the cam, I already have one too, so I sold it at a really cheap price to my cousin. Plus what kicked off my Christmas mode, our office Christmas party! There were bands like Itchyworms, Hale, Imago, even Ogie Alcasid sang. Tavern was closed for the night for our party :) I thought it was too early to be having a Christmas party, but it was just right to set everyone in the festive mood :) And last but not the least, we won our Christmas party presentation, I mean my team won! We shot a video in Bora, had a live performance, and won P10k, which we used to buy gifts for the rest of the teams in the office. So there, in case I won't be able to write another entry soon, advance Merry Christmas to everyone! :)
