I took an indefinite leave of absence from my work to be with my kids in Manila, finally fulfilling 100% of my duties as a mother with a bonus role of a father after 10 years. And honestly it’s not an easy task, more http://imurluckycharm.com/2008/10/inatay.htmlcharma0378@gmail.com (imurluckycharm)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3229327627869345766.post-6980718853191513557Wed, 24 Sep 2008 14:57:00 +00002008-09-26T16:40:57.298+08:00September 16, 2008Yah, yah, I managed to report on work eventhough I only had 4 hours of sleep. I checked on the gurls and like me, they also reported to work. Wehehehehe. By the way, Anna invited me for a dinner tonight exclusively for her family and relatives only. I was really touched when she told me that she invited me because I'm part of their family. By 6PM, I immediately went home and http://imurluckycharm.com/2008/09/despidida-party-part-2.htmlcharma0378@gmail.com (imurluckycharm)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3229327627869345766.post-9107865236461573677Wed, 24 Sep 2008 14:35:00 +00002008-09-26T16:41:39.331+08:00September 15, 2008As mentioned, we had to postpone the mini-reunion / despidida party to give way to the PDA Grand Night yesterday. So for a Monday, it was very unusual for anybody to have a night-out, but we just did. We had no choice as my best buddy and high school classmate Anna is scheduled to leave on the 17th.

Last Saturday, September 13, the grand performance night was held wherein the top 6 scholars namely Bugoy, Liezel, Laarni, Van, Miguel and Cris performed their last gala night. Obviously, I'm still rooting for Bugoy who sang http://imurluckycharm.com/2008/09/pda-season-2-grand-dream-night.htmlcharma0378@gmail.com (imurluckycharm)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3229327627869345766.post-2817857448027112205Sat, 13 Sep 2008 00:36:00 +00002008-09-15T14:14:47.381+08:00September 11, 2008 I had a fun day today coz finally I was able to join the Dana foundation team in action! This was unplanned actually. Tired of driving alone due to last night's activity (we attended another wake in Mandug), I hitched with the group on their way to Sto. Tomas.

I have been a regular visitor to this website since last year but never enrolled myself. It was only in August this year that I finally decided to become a member, first and foremost because I'm selling most of our stuff and secondly, to check on online businesses.

I arrived in Manila safe and sound at around 9PM, travelled to Pasig and reached our unit at around 9:30PM, and surprisingly, they are still awake. Upon seeing me, Aron immediately embraced me and innocently asked about my long absence. RV on the other hand, being the eldest, gave way to his brother and approached me later.

After a long absence (or was it that long???), I'm back. So sorry for not posting anyting for the last week, got tied up with work assignments that had me up until wee hours. But I will make it up by updating recent happenings last week:August 30 - Anna's grandmother was buried this day.

If yes, who's your bet? I am rooting for Bugoy actually. He's really inspiring. For a commoner like him to be able to pursue his dreams, not letting poverty and looks hinder this, he made miilions of Filipinos dream also. And his voice, man, it keeps on getting better every day.

Today, her grandmother died. I know that at 84 years old, she will finally rest, rather than suffer. But I know it's also painful for her loved-ones, especially for Anna and her family whom her lola lived with for the last 5 years....My prayers would always be with my friend.

This was organized as a fund raising event to finance the completion of St. Agustin's church also in Panabo. With Anna, Matoy, Malou, Yonin and Tata, we entered the Panabo Gym (with no entrance thanks to Matoy) and parked our car near the race track.

My best buddy Anna and my siblings Malou and Yonin helped me out in putting price tags and accounting the inventory.

I must admit, I almost forgot that we were to go downtown to catch the Kadayawan nighlife. If Yonin did not texted me, we would have spent the whole night at Liv's talking about anything.
