October Birthday Feast ♥



Capping off my month-long birthday celebration with a blast!
Spending it with the people closest to my heart, is what makes it MORE SPECIAL! ♥

10.13.13
With Papa & my brothers ♥


It is always a worthy feeling of you treating your own family. It's always been years that I'm not with my brothers everyday. Unlike those typical families who live in the same house. So I guess, I'm still lucky that even though they are not around, we're still close to one another.

Vikings Treat From Nemo 


Yey! I got something pulled-out from my bucket list! Me & Nemo are fond of spending special occasions on an eat-all-you-can restos. One that we haven't tried yet is the famous Vikings. We wanted to but the price hinders us. It was quite expensive and not practical.


Still, God is good. We were given a chance to try Vikings on my special day. It was a great gift too from Vikings itself that I had lunch for free! So we spent a price of one person only! Practicality wise, two thumbs up!


Overwhelming food varieties.. All of my favorites were here!


Obviously... I was such a happy kid!


Shrimps & Crabs were haunting me! The reason why I wanted to eat at Vikings.


Shabu-Shabu..


Nemo enjoyed the sushi's :)


Pastel colors of their yummy ice cream.. Bubble Gum was my favorite!


Thank you so much Vikings for the cake & birthday song... It was really unforgettable :)


Thank you so much Nemo for always making me happy. I love you ♥

Lunch at the office ♥


After all the years of service for us, pag-aalaga, pag-iintindi, pag-babantay, pag-mamahal, lahat na! Hindi ka lang basta "kasambahay" namin.. Kundi NANAY-of-all-seasons na! Akalain mo hindi lang ako napalaki mong malusog! Dagdag mo pa si Mariel at Marvin! Hehe..

Sobrang na-touch ako sa message mo na ito.. Kahit halatang nagmamadali ka na.. hahahaha... Maraming salamat sa sosyalang Italian Spaghetti with GIANT MEATBALLS Ate Dona! haha  Belated Happy Birthday too! 


Say Hello to my Well Managed Family..Special thanks to Boss Mylene for sponsoring our lunch at the office. *chim*

Banapple ♥


This is it! The night of my birthday., Say hello to my family and to my former Computer Avenue work-mates. We had dinner at Banapple and I was able to bring Jhaika along with us. I was craving for cream dory that's why I wanted to come back at Banapple. If I'm not mistaken, I celebrated my birthday two years ago at the same place. And before I forgot, Jhaika highlighted my birthday too. I was so happy I was able to bring her and meet my family. She's soooo adorable! Belated Happy Birthday Jhaika! Awesome October it was!

THANK YOU SO MUUUUUUUUCH!


Upon waking up, here's what surprised me with morning glory!!! Thanks mommy, daddy & Mariel ♥


"God has perfect timing; never early, never late. It takes a little patience and it takes a lot of faith. but it’s worth the wait." (c) Wilbert Yu

Noong bata ako, gusto kong magkaroon ng sariling bike. Palagi ako humihingi kay Lolo noon, nangako pa nga siya na bibilhan niya ako ng bike kapag natapos ko yung summer subject ko na Math. Pakiramdam ko sobrang talino ko noon to the point na halos ang taas ng grade ko sa Math, makamit ko lang yung bike na inaasam-asam ko. 

Naalala ko pa noon, palagi akong nangangapit-bahay kina Kristine para lang manghiram ng bike nila tapos paikot-ikot lang ako sa compound namin. 


Ngayon, 20-something na ako, at nasa Heaven na si Lolo. Nawalan na ako ng pag-asang magkaroon ng Bike. Totoo pala talaga yung kasabihan na -- walang hindi binibigay si Lord sa mga kahilingan mo. May tamang oras talaga para dyan. Sobrang saya ko talaga! Gusto kong magpasalamat kay Nemo, sa pagtupad sa munting pangarap ko sa buhay - ang magkaroon ng SARILING BIKE. ♥♥♥


My officemates got me a Coca Cola Glass from McDonalds! Yey! Kumpleto ko na collection ko :) Sir Harold gave me the blue one, Sir Albert with green while Sir Marvin gave me a Mickey Mouse mug instead :)) hahaha.


And Lastly... Original Ferrari Jacket & Iphone pouch! All from Aisha & Marvin! So sweet of you dear :) It was nice to meet you ♥

I want to give HUGE HUGS to those who remembered. Thank you so much for all the gifts ♥

Reunion with my FZ Friends


This wasn't part of my birthday plan, but I wasn't expecting that we're going to have a small reunion by October. Time flies so fast and it was 7 years! 7 years of Pump It Up, friendship & magic


We had dinner at Carl's house. Collected P20.00 each and went to the grocery with Alica, Lendle and Nemo, we bought pancit canton which was cooked by Jepii, Awin, Charles & Nemo. We also had hotdogs, sliced bread and iced tea. Played spin-the-bottle up to 1:00 am! And everyone went home sleepy and groggy haha!

Thanks Lester for organizing our reunion. It was totally awesome 

So that was how my birth month rocks! I feel like I wanna do it again next year. Hopefully. How I wish we spend birthdays but we never grow old.. I wanna go back to my childhood years and just live life to the fullest. *sigh* I still have the best persons around. Nothing to regret, and I know I'm still blessed. Thank you so much Lord for making everything happen. God speed. at 6:00:00 PM 0 comments

Quad-Birthday Celeb with my Brothers ♥


October 13, 2013.
Quad-Birthday Celebration. SM Mall Of Asia.
Yabu - The House of Katsu.
Insidious 2 Movie.

To start my very own version of "October Fest", I wanted to spend my birthday with my brothers. I really want to at least, spend a day with them, since we don't always see each other in Manila. So I guess, my birthday won't be complete without them. 


We are four in the family. And yes, I'm one of the boys! I want to celebrate my birthday with them, in order for us to celebrate ALL our birthdays together! Roman celebrated his birthday last August, Me & Ryan will be celebrating ours this October while Rafael is on January. It's a one-time-big-time celebration for us. It's my first time to treat them this big! Haha.. Gusto ko rin kasi makabawi sa kanila for how many years na hindi ko sila palaging kasama. It's a Laguna-Cainta long distance relationship for us. Thanks to Skype, Facebook & Viber for our blessed communications! haha :)



I bought a small souvenir :) My gift to my brothers - couple QUAD-PLE watches! Kapag mag-boyfriend/girlfriend - couple watch... Hindi ko alam kung anong tawag sa apat na magka-kapatid! Hahaha.

I gave the red one to Ryan, Military for Roman, Yellow for Raffy and Purple for me! Thank God they love it. :) Kulang pa yan para makabawi ako sa inyo :) I love you guys!


First stop at Yabu - The House of Katsu. We were about to eat at Mann Hann so that I can treat them for less. But eventually, I wanted something different for them. Yung lahat kami hindi pa kami nakaka-kain doon. So thanks to the virtual map that we end up waiting for our reservation at Yabu :)


Nemo & I was planning to eat at Yabu at Robinsons Magnolia. We're too busy that's why we don't have time to visit the place. Until, I wanted to eat here with my family, as we were browsing the menu, (it was too expensive for me, but it was worth it! Highly recommended!) I wasn't expecting that they have unlimited rice too! Just like at Tokyo Tokyo. They have unli-JAPANESE rice! Awesome right?

What makes it different from Tokyo Tokyo is that, aside from unlimited Japanese rice, they also serve miso soup, Japanese pickles, unlimited cabbage with sesame dressing and a bowl of fruit!

It was really worth the wait and even though it was so costly, I didn't regret treating my family at Yabu. Two-thumbs up!


Check out Ms. Ann, she was trying to discuss to us on how to do the sesame dressings.


Here's mine & Papa's order; Seafood Katsu Set, 120g Creamy Dory Fillet , while Roman ordered 120g Chicken Katsu Set. Ryan, Raffy & Nemo ordered Tonkatsu Set; 120g Rosu (Porkloin).


Hi Papa and bunso! :)


Ang gwapo na ng mga kapatid ko :)



Happy Birthday Buchok! Mauuna kang tumanda sa akin hehe :) I hope you enjoyed our Sun-DATE for the very first time.. I hope you also love the watch. Para tayong Voltes V niyan, just call my name and I'll be there! Haha.. Love you so much! *chim*


Family Picture! I love this photo of us, not because I found Nemo, haha! I feel like we're whole again. Masaya kami, oo, pero syempre, mas-masaya if mama was here too. I miss you mama! I hope you were here with us to celebrate as a one happy family. We will be good sons & daughters for you mama! This is for you! I love you!

And Nemo, of course, I know that YOU KNOW I brought you with us kasi ikaw ang photographer namin. Hahaha! And I just want to THANK YOU and give you HUGE HUGS for being an excellent photographer! All of our happy moments were captured. Thanks to you! 


When you see it, you'll shit bricks! hahaha :)) Sorry naman! Mali pagkaka-basa ko eh! Laugh trip hahaha! Di ko rin makalimutan yung "kenchi" na order ko.. chicken dapat yun eh.. I was mixed up with "chicken" and "menchu" hahahaha! 



Right after our lunch, we're scheduled on a 3:40 pm movie-date! Pig-asis attack! :))
(Pig-asis is our term for getting sleepy after getting bloated) Haha!

We enjoyed and I SURVIVED INSIDIOUS Chapter 2! First time kong maka-sabay sumigaw si Ryan! hahahaha :P

1st week - MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!
Thank you Lord for everything! For all the blessings you have showered me and my family. Thank you for giving us a chance to celebrate together, as one. And I hope that you will always take care of them, shower them your blessings and give them lots of happiness and good health through out life. Please don't forget Mama too.. I love her so much. Thank you for always being there for them. Amen.

Thank you mga kapatid ko! I love you and I hope nag-enjoy kayo sa Sun-date natin :)

Nemo's 23rd ♥




It was an awesome birthday celebration for a week! Nemo turned 23 last tuesday (September 17, 2013) And it was an overload of mixed emotions and what I really want to do on his birthday, is to make him happy & making him feel that he is loved :)

Sunday. 09/15/2013
Nemo chose this day to celebrate with me & with our friends.


So early morning, we had a rainy brunch at Banapple Katipunan. I was craving for Cream Dory that day, that's why he took me to Banapple for lunch 


We went straight to Timezone Gateway to meet our friends x Pump It Up couple buddies - Jaz & Mean. We decided to spend our time together dancing & exercising while playing Pump It Up. 


At around 7:00 pm, went straight to Fiesta Villa to meet our FZ friends. It was a pancit treat from Nemo. The long-life trending pancit with lechon toppings :) His Sunday with me and our friends was worth-it!

Tuesday. 09/17/2013.
Nemo wants to celebrate his birthday with his family. So he wanted to treat them for a dinner after work, at home.


Nemo went to Red Ribbon to buy himself a cake. It was a promise made for his father's request and for his niece, the adorable Jhaika! The sales lady asked Nemo - "ano pong kulay ng candle sir? Blue po o pink?" Without hesitations, Nemo chose the pink candle -- Sabi nga ni Nemo, "for sure kilala ko na kung sino ang magblo-blow ng cake!" haha :)

I was planning to do a theme for Nemo's birthday. It was a surprise which I eventually failed. I was having a hard time to sneak out from Nemo. I got the idea from the movie, My Amnesia Girl. The "post its" remember? But I don't have time to do it. I was able to ask help from his mom and dad, they allowed me to sneak out at their house at 5:30 am so that I will be able to do my surprise in the morning, right after he wakes up.

I failed.

I wasn't able to do it, one thing is that it was too early for me and I was so exhausted the night before since I was also rushing to finish the post its. So I decided to do a Plan B.


I didn't put it on his wall, but I did put it on his bed! I even spread rose & orchids everywhere! Tadaaaah!!! I guess it worked, he was surprised! Haha :P

Disclaimer: All drawings were grabbed from HJ Story Illustrations. However, some thoughts written was originally from the bottom of my heart! ♥


It was endurance and fellowship of the house party protocol. ♥
SURPRISE!!!! Iron Man Casing and a 16GB USB Flash Drive  I know you want it! Love you!


Thank you Jarvis for making Nemo sooooo emoooootional! Haha. Here's our chat the day after I gave him the Iron Man USB, he was about to cry! :)))



Here's my favorite part! Hindi ko kayang i-explain yung nararamdaman ko when it comes to having pictures together with Nemo's family. Feeling ko, I'm part of the family na talaga.

I hope, I was able to make Nemo happy and make his day extra special. In a month, we're going to celebrate our 5th year together, and I really can't wait at all for I have another surprise for "us"! Hahaha :) I love you Nemo! You're a God's gift that I will always treasure for a lifetime. I wish you more birthdays to come and also good health. I will always be here for you no matter what happens. I will always be your best friend, your partners-in-crime, your girlfriend, your bff, LAHAT NA! *chim* ♥♥♥

This Is My December ♩♪♫♬

Last year of December 2012, it has been a jam-packed month full of awesome events and festivities! I wanna call it a hell month but it isn't really a "hell" for me. Awesome invites from different events and attended most of my first times memoirs. I wanted to blog everything of what had happened but It will take a whole lot of my blog to emphasize everything. So what I did, I'll just give you the highlights of my December 2012 ♥

To begin with....

12.21.12
Nemo's Graduation ♥

Congratulations Nemo!!! I know how hard you've been doing for the past 4 years, trying to reach the finish line. And the fruits of your labor - is in your hands right now. I am so very proud of you Nemo. Even though there were a lot of challenges that happened to you way back when you were in your junior years, you still managed to finish whatever you have started. I'm sure your Tita Dory and Tito Raffy are very proud of you too! This is going to be a start of something new ♥

I am also happy, that for the very first time, I had dinner with your family. After 4 years of waiting, at long last - hearing something like "part ka na ng pamilya namin" from your father, is the most unforgettable moment of my life. Thank you for introducing me to your family ♥

12.16.12
Computer Avenue Christmas Party ♥

My office mates together with their families, Computer Avenue had an Eat-All-You-Can lunch Christmas Party at Zensho's Japanese Restaurant. They cook just in front of you! So we don't need to line-up at the buffet table or to race for crabs and shrimps. Isn't it making an ordinary tummy orgasmic?! awesome ideas are awesome!

12.20.12
Pump It Up Fiesta 2 Field Location Test ♥


I was invited by Andamiro's Pump It Up Supporters; Jefferson Magsano, to witness and try, for the very first time, the newest version of Pump It Up - Pump It Up Fiesta 2. Andamiro's representatives, Macnom, brought the Fiesta 2 HDD in the Philippines for its first Field Location Test. This is to market their products to selected amusement parks such as Timezone. So we, as members of the Pump It Up Philippines team, we tried the newest version at it's finest. We had the privilege to make the most of the Fiesta 2 upgrade just so before everyone can play with it when it's out to the market. Luckily, we we're allowed to bring someone with us, so I was with Nemo the whole time! Thanks Jeff & Recca for the invitation. To sum it up, Fiesta 2 is awesome for me!


Here's my final verdict for the Pump It Up Fiesta 2 evaluation sheet.

12.22.2012
World Of Fun 25th Anniversary ♥


Cheers to my VERY FIRST TALENT FEE!!! I received cash, World Of Fun gift certificates and a Woffy Plush. I just have to perform my winning piece for their event! Awesome right?!

I never thought that I'm earning for only playing a game. I am telling you - it was an awesome experience for me, since I really love and enjoy what I am doing. Would you believe I received P10,000.00 just for playing Pump It Up? How cool was that?!

Going back..

All the winners of their previous contests and events, were invited to perform all of their winning piece during their winning moment. It serves as a flash back for 25 years of gaming and fun activities at World Of Fun. So there, I was the 1st Runner-Up last 2009's Fun-Pamilya Fest Year 2 for Pump It Up Speed Category, that's why I was invited. Luckily, I was able to file half day from my work. Together with me was Rocky, winner for the Year 1's event for Pump It Up Freestyle Category. Some of our FZ friends went too. And what I loved the most was the part when DJ Rico Panero still recognizes me! He's also the emcee during my winning moment. haha! And still, after 3 years, he still remembers me! Thank you so much Sir Rico

12.23.12
Hello Kitty Meet & Greet @ SM North
Fun Time Fun Challenge @ SM Fairview


The last time I went to the Hello Kitty Village at SM North, I was able to purchase P790.00 for my Hello Kitty Top at Forever21. I also bought a Hello Kitty stuffed-seat and Hello Kitty Gelatin. That's the reason why I was able to have my passes to meet and greet Hello Kitty in person! Minimum of P500 for you to be able to have free passes.

So there, I went back last December 23. Hugged and kissed Hello Kitty the 2nd time around! My first time was last 2009 at SM Megamall. As far as I remember, Hello Kitty came all the way from England. ♥


Right after Hello Kitty, I went straight to SM Fairview to judge a mini Pump It UP Competition. It was World Of Fun's sister company - Fun Time (located inside the Bowling arena at SM Fairview). Mr. Michael Ignacio invited me as one of his judges.

Congratulations!
3rd - Joshua Maramba

12.22.12
FZSL Christmas Party ♥


A whole lot more of a Christmas Party with my FZSL friends! Exchange gifts, contributions for the pancit bilao, drinks and ampao prizes, games and kwentuhan bonding experience all at Mean's place. It was another, unforgettable night. We almost went home by 2:00 am. Some of them went to Jepii's house for an overnight while others went home already.  

That night, was really enchanted for me and my friends. All my hard work in organizing this one of a kind get-together party was worth it.

12.24-25.12
Family Christmas Time ♥


Spent Christmas with my family, and with my brothers as well. Treat them with a Shakey's Grand Slam pizza (for the first time) and went to Eastwood to watch El Presidente Movie. I was also showered with blessings, caught $4 from a random stranger showering blessings from the 2nd floor of the mall. Shouted a HUGE THANKS to him & her (they said they were OFWs) It was a cool experience, raining money around Eastwood. Such a kind heart sharing their Christmas blessings with us!

Me with my boy band family ♥ How I wish Mama was here. Merry Christmas everyone! 

Cheers to my awesome Christmas Nemo Chichi Online Shop's customers! Nemo Chichi Online Shop was still open even on Christmas! Thank you so much for all our December Nemo Chichi customers! I love you guys!

~♥ Anna & Mitch.

12.29.12
Christmas Dinner with Ma'am Imee
Had an Army Navy experience with Ma'am Imee and her husband, Tito Orly. It was our first time together to celebrate a Christmas Dinner. We're planning to have a Yellow Cab experience, a New Year Dinner I guess?! haha.. 

12.30.12
Medina-Diaz Nuptial.
Alpadi Estate, Antipolo.

CONGRATULATIONS Achie Juliet and Tito Ivan! Your love story was very inspiring ♥

12.31.12
Year-End Date with Nemo.
 
Spent the last day of the year with a Pump It Up exercise in the morning, then Nemo bought a Christmas gift for himself, watched Sisterakas, went to Santolan LRT Station for a meet-up with one of our suppliers for Nemo Chichi Online Shop and a Pizza Bluemoon Dinner together. It was a productive day for us. Thank you Nemo ♥

And lastly....

Minutes before New Year... Prepared something for my family ♥
Pizza Hut and Balot as my simple treat for them :) Happy New Year!!!
