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.

In a week, we will be taking that very long journey to Davao.

Right now, I'm dreading it so much I can't get excited. I'm realizing, I dislike flying. You're cramped & cold. It's so impossible to get comfortable. You can't stretch your legs and nowhere to put your head down. The blankets are small. Some part of you will end up exposed and cold.

0720 Omaha to Las Vegas (3 hrs)
0820 Las Vegas (1 hr 25 min)
0945 Las Vegas to Sacramento (1.5 hrs)
1115 Sacramento (13 hrs)
0015 San Francisco to Taiwan (13.5 hrs)
0606 Taiwan (1 hr 30 min)
0735 Taiwan to Manila (2 hrs)
0940 Manila (6 hrs 20 min)
1600 Manila to Davao (1.5 hrs)
1745 Davao

21.5 flying hours and 22 hours & 20 minutes lay-over. So, yeah, not looking forward to this. I wish somebody would hurry up and invent a new form of transportation. Aren't we due for something totally new? Willy Wonka's transport would be nice. The original Willy Wonka, where you can travel through the TV and go to any TV in the world or something like that.

Enough with the whine. (I know somebody who makes this comment everytime he hears somebody whine, "Do you want cheese with that whine?") Last night, Megan asked if we can have stinky fruit once we're in Davao. This is another post altogether.
