The corner of my mouth turned up in a wistful half-smile. “I used to think of you that way, you know. Like the sun. My personal sun. You balanced out the clouds nicely for me.”

He sighed. “The clouds I can handle. But I can’t fight with an eclipse.”

In Eclipse, I was so hating Bella. Oh well, she was only human then, as Edward always pointed out, but well, I did not expect for her to do such thing… not to my Edward :-P
It’s been a turning point for Edward-Bella-Jacob romance. A lot of action compared to the first two books :) lots of characters are being introduced here, loads of information too – about vamps and werewolves. When will Bella be changing? Ahehe. When will Jacob find his better half? Will they have a happily ever after? Or a happily never after? :-P
It’s raining outside and I thought of Forks :-P ahehe. My anticipation to Twilight movie is so, well, exagerrated – I guess :-P and I’m carving to the Twilight Movie Guide. Waaahhh! Please someone wrap it for me for Christmas :-D ahehe.

I was not able to visit my grandparents’ burial ground last Saturday. But I did go home to San Pablo ;-)

Treat

A bunch of cute kids with adorable costumes went trick or treating last Thursday in our office.

We had a Halloween party of our own – mark, mitch and ela. We had dinner and wander the booths in south cemetery :-P

My inay’s (mom) homemade cooking :-P this is one reason why I want to go home every weekend :-P

Trick

“What did you said?” unintelligent thing to say on the phone, bwahaha! Right after I blab this sentence, I figured I said it wrong and that sounded funny. buti na lang si mark ang kausap ko nun :-P that would have been very embarrassing :-P wahaha!

Holiday rush
Posted on November 4th, 2008 at 11:44 pm by Ann

It’s the time of the year again!  :-D

Whew! Time does fly so fast, less than a month from now, it’s Christmas again!
Simbang gabi (Night Mass), puto bumbong, bibingka, parol (Christmas Lantern), Christmas Trees and stockings, mistletoe, snow (I wish :-P), caroling are in season again. Ooohh, I can smell the roasting of chestnuts. Hmmmm…

Parties and reunions, monito-monita (gift giving) are part of the celebration as well. I’m not that looking forward for reunions though, because tatay (dad) is not here to celebrate with us, he works abroad. I don’t have a lot of cousins and relatives so pretty much cheng, ton, inay (mom) and I will spend the Christmas together. We’ve been like that for as long as I remember so that doesn’t bother me. Perhaps we’ll go to an amusement park this year :-P

And of course my most awaited part of this season, aside from Noche Buena, what else? Christmas shopping! You got to choose presents for your friends and family :-D and buy stuff for yourself too ;-) for me it’s a way of pampering yourself after a year of hard work :-P ahaha! That’s the fun part, but you need fuel to get things running – anda/moola/ money! Ahaha! Desperately needed of a sideline :-P
Back to my Christmas shopping blabbing, I’m done with my gift list, ahehe, the problem now is where to buy them, considering my fixed budget of course :-P if you have the same dilemma as I am, try browsing these sites for couple of good finds like multiply.com, ebay.ph, shop.com.

Like in SHOP.COM, they have a broad selection of items to choose from, plus they offer great deals and prizes as well, how cool is that? The site also offer discounts, coupons and free shipping. They have a promo right now, the Top Holiday Gifts Give Away!  and the lucky customer can have a chance to grab a flat screen TV, iPod Touch, GPS Navigation System and more!  The promo runs thru December 14.

You can also go to department stores, bazaars and to tutuban for cheap finds. The stuff that they sell with varying prices and you lots to choose from. Research does not hurt, you can browse magazines and the net for some cool and nice presents for this year so that you’ll get an idea. Plus there are a lot of bargains, sales and freebies that some stores offer, be it online or not, offer.

Start your holiday shopping early so you’ll not get caught in the rush. ;-) happy shopping everyone!
