i am starting to pack our bags and luggages for a nice getaway.

first stop is CHICAGO, ILLINOIS. Rickey, Darrell and I will stay there from July 1 to July 5 for a family reunion. I will finally meet my mother-in-law and the rest of Rickey's relatives. I'm excited kasi, syempre, ako ang pinakamaganda don, di ba? Rickey is the only member of that clan who went for a wife from another race. So, feeling ko, super siya ang magiging talk of the town kasi, magdala ba naman siya ng ibang lahi...namannnnn....

then, we go back to LA and head to Laguna Hills para ilagak ang Darrell. on July 8th, we'll fly to San Francisco. Bakasyon lang ng konti. after 3 years, napalabas ako ng LA finally. i'll try to meet my high school and grade school friends there. i'm hoping to see karen and john, rodora, jand and her husband. i'm so excited to sit down and chat with them...

on July 11th, we'll head to Vegas. we'll be at Monte Carlo for 3 days. i'm hoping to watch as many shows as i can. susulitin ko na ito. baka matagalan bago maulit. i'm planning to ride the Gondola at the Venetian, see the wax museum as well, go to the Eiffel Tower at the Paris Hotel, visit the tigers and the sharks, the dolphins, the birds, etc. i also want to go to the spa at the Caesars Palace.

i can't wait to explore these cities with Rickey. you're sure to see tons of pictures when i get back...AND, ALSO, i want to tell everyone that i have 3 dozens of Dramamine for my motion sickness...i'm finally flying with good faith in myself...kaya ko ito...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MR. JONES!!!

i had a verrrryyyyyyy long weekend(care naman ng mga tao na nakikibasa dito, di ba?). this update is only for my blogfriends, k? hihihihihihi

i was in anaheim for a 2-day workshop...something important i needed to go to with my Rickey...

it was nothing exciting but, i learned a lot from it and who knows, i might get my dreamhouse before the end of the year!

last night, we walked to downtown disney and joined hundreds of people walk the walk and talk the talk...nakakapagod considering our hotel is like only 2 blocks away from the plaza. house of blues was so crowded so we decided to just stroll around the place and head back to the hotel...i found 2 callouses along the way, golleeeee!

i am finally getting things done in this wide wide world of yu-es. konting hintay na lang, i can organize my schedule na for work, business, travels, shopping!!!

sa mga hindi makarelate, just pretend you can para tuloy-tuloy ang kwento. i have an appointment with my lawyer para makawork na ako at para magkaroon na rin ako ng karapatang maging mrs. jones. aba, aba, aba...matagal-tagal na rin akong naghihintay sa pagkakataong ito...syempre, para magpakareyna na ng todo-todo nang wala nang makakontra sa buhay namin.

pasukan na ng mga bata. tag-ulan na rin. i can't wait to have my kids here para hindi na ako mag-iisip kung matibay ba yong school shoes nila or kung may jacket ba sa backpack nila or babahain ba yong daan papuntang school...hay buhay...

i guess all i can do right now is WAIT...

MEMORIAL DAY 2005
