It's been awhile...

I woke up this morning disoriented. Then, a few seconds later, I realized that I'm at Chemas. I could live here. I'd like to live here. Who wouldn't? So peaceful.

We headed for the beach. At 7 in the morning, the water was warm enough to go swimming. Unfortunately, the tide was low, so we just waded and looked for bright, white shells. Then I saw a yellow fish with 1 blue stripe, then another and another. I told Gary to grab the goggles and wake Megan up.

The water was so clear that you could see the bottom clearly. We went by the seawall and found more things. An eel, a sea snake, so small, I wasn't scared. A white fish with black spots. A two-tone fish. A fish with yelllow stipes. Another one with blue neon stripes. I wish I know more about the different species of tropical fish.

Someday, I will live by the sea.

My poor blog!

I've abandoned you for so long. It's just that there's nothing blog-worthy happened to me lately. I've been taking more pictures.

I like these the most.

I love this. Simple life. Simple pleasures. Happy na sa sugbang isda at baboy with matching talong and, of course, coke.

Megan's birthday party photos ---> click ME.

It snowed but we were not there to play! =(

*sigh*

I'm tired of looking at my page...

I want a new one...

I don't have time to make one...

*sigh*

I'm so proud of myself!

Hahahaha! It's nothing big but still I'm proud of me. I googled myself (not my real name, just a user ID) and found a photo of mine posted in Wikipedia.

I'm just glad that somebody I don't know posted it. =)

I've decided to stay until May.

Hopefully, everything works out. One thing that is still up in the air is where would Megan go to school. Vanessa's school said they can only accept transferees until September but they will try really hard and get her in. Keep your fingers crossed please.

I need something else to occupy my time. I'll be taking piano lessons. It's been my dream to play the piano. I have other plans too, cooking lessons & sewing lessons.

We'll see. =)

It has become a family tradition.

The day after thanksgiving, we went out to get our christmas tree. After searching high and low, we found it. The perfect tree for us, not too tall, not too short, not too thin and not too fat.



Even Buddy came with us. Here he is driving us home.



As soon as we got home, we started decorating the tree.



We've also put up lights outside.



It has been Gary's mission in life to create a light show. We're not there yet. Over the next years, I will be slowly building a christmas village complete with a train set.
