April ♥

April was meant to be for Nemo and my family. As I have realized lately, I've been spending most of my time with my family - and if I'm not with them, I'm with Nemo.. or BOTH!

Here are some of the best of my summer so far.

Having step brothers is like having real brothers at all. I felt the same way like most of the mothers feel - being proud. Yes, I'm a proud sister to my baby brothers, Rafael and Ryan. Rafael is now a certified high school student while Ryan is now a college student - and might be studying at Mapua Institute of Technology with a course of Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineer - since he already passed the entrance test.

Food fest! That's how we celebrate every important days of our lives. We're so reluctant to foods and dishes that are very unique to our taste buds. We tend to eat a lot and check out new twists on fab restaurants or food chains. Just like many others, people loves to eat all the time as long as you have "cha ching cha ching". Even without it, still -- foods are the best-test medicine of all time!

One of which, is me and Nemo celebrated our month-anniv at Sizzling Pepper Steak.


Chicken Pepper Rice & Pork BBQ Pepper Rice was really amazing.


Ever since we were young, mommy always prepare a birthday celebration for all of us, as much as she can - she'll buy cakes, chicken, lechon, etc for the sake of making you very special on the date of you birthday. This time, daddy surprised mommy with a very discreet birthday celebration. All of the members in the house was doing their designated tasks, like me - I bought the case of Coke & case of Beer. I also drove alone, for the very first time, just to buy those at Makro. Isn't it amazing? I was able to manage driving without someone professional beside me. What an achievement!

At SM Mall of Asia with Nemo and relatives.

Right after the lunch-out and videoke at home, we went to SM Mall of Asia - which is not actually an original plan - the plan was to go to Tagaytay. But since we will not be able to appreciate the scenery, then what we did was we had dinner at Yellow Cab, and yes! that's at SM MOA! haha. We went all they way to Pasay just to ate pizza. Awesome!


So here's THE REAL PLAN. After mommy's birthday, we went at Tagaytay the next day, it's somewhat a continuation of mommy & Mariel's birthday. We went there together with family and relatives, including Nemo. We had so much fun and had a wonderful day, again, with the fam.

Nemo and my family at Taal Vista, Tagaytay.

Tagaytay is lovelier the seconnd time around! We went at Tagaytay Picnik Grove last year in celebration of Nemo's birthday. This time, we're in Taal Vista, Tagaytay.

Nemo, will you.... check if my ring is a 24karat gold? :))

Dinner at RSM Lutong Bahay.

Aside from microphone, I also play the ciello... IN MY DREAMS!


It's Mariel's 16th, and we went to Enchanted Kingdom together with her Sienna & Miriam friendships. And of course, I was with Nemo too :)

Surprise Mariel! Happy 16th Birthday from Achie & Nemo.

Happy Birthday Mariel! From Mommy, Achie, Nemo, Miriam & Sienna friends!

While Mariel is with her Miriam friends, Me & Nemo was with her Sienna friends - since we already know them for quite some time and our bonding has chemistry.

So cool that I SURVIVED SPACE SHUTTLE MAX! Although I was teary-eyed right after the ride, the essence is still there! (evil smirk) I still, and I was able to ride that scary shuttle. And I'm so damn proud!

Here's a romantic scenery of ala-New York-slash-Space Shuttle Max! I really love this shot. I feel like I'm with James BALD .. I mean.. James Bond. (well actually, the pose was adopted from Charlie's Angels) haha. To make the story short, I love this shot!

Fooooooooods! Had pizza hut and Dilly Bars for reception! LOL :P

April is not complete without the Holy Week. So on the first day, I had my very first company outing at Maysha Resort together with my officemates at Computer Avenue and some of my dad's officemates at Yamaha Motortrade Nationwide Corp. I really did enjoy this a lot, not only because I was also with Nemo that night, it was also my first work-related outing experience.

With Mariel, Nemo and my partner in Marketing, Kuya Normel and our one-and-only technician, Kuya Rex.

Visita Iglesia are Spanish words meaning "church visits." Filipinos traditionally visit fourteen churches in remembrance of the 14 stations of the cross. We, on the other hand, visit only 7 churches and pray 2 stations for each church.

Visita Iglesia with family.

We went at:

1. Christ The King Parish Church - Mozon
2. St. John The Baptist Parish Church - Taytay, Rizal
3. Our Lady of Light Parish Church - Cainta Rizal
4. Parokya Ng Santo Rosario - Pasig
5. Christ The King Parish Church - Green Meadows
6. Nativity of our Lady Parish - Marikina City
7. Monasterio De Sta. Clara - Katipunan

Right after, we had our dinner at Pizza Hut.
(Daddy can't do fasting due to his Diabetes)


Right after Visita Iglesia, Mariel & I went for an Alay Lakad from Cainta Rizal to Antipolo Church.


I wasn't able to make it to the church because I was sick that night, I feel like I had butterflies in my stomach and thank God we found a nice resto-bar along Antipolo and a cool crew to assist us to the bathroom.

Going back...

We're almost there actually, good thing Nel lives at Antipolo, so we we're able to take a rest and ate a little for dinner.


Before I end this novela blog of mine, I just want to congratulate my lawfully wedded boyfriend, Nemo for winning the 1st runner-up for speed category in Pump It Up Fun at WOF Phase 1.

I'm a PROUD GIRLFRIEND! :)


So basically, all of these happened only this April and this took me 3 days of blogging. Good thing Blogspot has "save as draft". I just can't believe that all of these happened only in a month. And I still have upto June to make the most of my summer. Yup! You heard it right, it's June - and we're going to be out of the country... sooooon
