My Birthday

This was a late birthday post.
Looking back, a Sunday, Sept. 14, the 258th day of 2008. There are 108 days left in the year.
You can view todays highlights in history here including famous brithdays. But for my own life's history, here's what happened.
1. Today I resigned from my job. I decided to resign on this day as I feel good vibes coming. It is my birthday and my lucky day. I handed the letter to my GM around 12 noon. We had a good talk and he approved but not the 30 days notice period. We're still negotiating on that.
2. We had dinner at Aseana Restaurant in Raffles Hotel. It was a pleasant experience. A luxe dining feast. More on that later..
3. I received so many birthday greetings thru PM's, Friendster comments, text messages and those who bothered to call until now for post bday greetings.
4. It made me feel special with that extra love and attention given by those who remembered and by Mi Amour and Isabel singing a birthday song.
Lil Bro asked me what I wanted so we can drop by Wafi Mall as it is adjacent to Raffles Hotel, they were surprised as I said I don't have anything in mind .....yet.
As for my birthday wish, I have many. But what I am wishing for the longest time is finally coming thank God and it is much more bigger than a purse or that ring I saw at Samra.

Linggo ng Wika

Last month was Linggo ng Wika. I am so proud of my little girl as she was the representative of their class to perform a poem in the school activity infront of other class, parents, teachers & guests. During rehearsals, she was n't able to perform as she got nervous and cried. Then she was able to pull it at the 2nd rehearsals. Then came the day, wearing a pink Filipiniana costume. She made it. I'm such a proud mom..

The last picture reminded me of my Nursery graduation where I gave the welcome remarks speech. I have the photo at home and I will post it beside Isabels' picture. This is her poem entitled Wika:
Wika'y kailangan ng bawat mamamayan Upang umunlad ang ating bayan Ito'y sandata sa mga labanan Bilang panalag at bilang sandigan Ika'y pilipino kaya dapat gamitin Wikang filipino na tumataginting; Bawat salita'y kay sarap bigkasin Kung taos sa puso at hindi pipilitin Kumilos na tayo,mga pilipino Hanggang may pag-asa at hindi pa hilo Sa banyagang wika na nakakalito Na dito'y dinala ng kung sino sino Ang wika'y simbolo ng bawat bayan Tulad ng watawat na sumasagisag Kung walang wika bansa'y mabubuwag Kaya't gumising na nang tayo'y umangat.

A new day has come

Today is September 1st. My birth month. The beginning of "ber" months. The beginning of the holy month Ramadan. And this is my first post. The other day we were able to watch "When Love Begins." The only thing that i liked about it was the soundtrack-One Hello as sung by Gary V. Somehow I can relate to the song but not in a romantic way. I haven't fully blogged about it but before the year ends, we are moving. We will leave Dubai and start anew in Oman. This time our family will be complete as Isabel is joining us overseas. Mi Amour got an offer that we can't resist. He already resigned from his job last month and we're just waiting for the visas to be processed before I quit my job. We don't know what's in store for us but it is really a good thing and a blessing to our family.

If you're not afraid
Of what love brings
Then endings are beginnings
Of beautiful things
Its a chance you'll take
It's a chance you'll win
If someone's gonna find you
First you gotta let them in
Remember my friend
Goodbyes not the end
Its a circle you know
And it starts with one hello
I'm really excited though with the idea of packing, moving and buying new stuff but most important it is not just the two of us anymore, Isabel will be here for good.
