A GOOD START
After writing an entry of my blessed 2004 and asking how I could top it, well... well... well... My year 2005 started with a blast.My Uncle Bob came home for a vacation from USA. I was the only one who knew of his coming. We also planned a surprise party for my grandmother's 72nd birthday. When he arrived here in the Philippines, I met him at his hotel in Ortigas. Then, I saw this portable DVD player with a 7 inch screen. It's really beautiful and handy. So, I asked him if I could borrow it. But deep inside my heart, I wanted to ask him if I could have it instead. Hahaha! After unpacking, he gave me chocolates and cash. Wow! I didn't ask for it but I could not refuse it. I'm not a fool not to accept that big amount. At 3 am, we went to the airport for my uncle's flight for Cagayan de Oro. Then, I went home to get some sleep.
But it was not only my uncle who will be home for my Lola's Birthday party. I went home too, after a week. I took the first flight which is 5 am on February 5. When I arrived home, my neighbors and cousins were surprised to see me. It was unusual for me to have a vacation on a February. Thanks to my uncle who paid for my plane ticket. Yehey!
What I did for the party was to go around and to video cousins and my Lola's friends for their birthday greetings. I was also my uncle's assistant during his stay in Opol. Wow, he was calling my name from time to time when he needs something. I also went swimming with Daisy, GharyJohn and Jerry. And shopping... shopping... shopping with my Uncle and Lola. I hate to say it but I am my uncle and lola's favorite. Sometimes I feel guilty because my cousins and uncles ask my lola and uncle for something but they can't have it. But when I ask them, I could surely get it. Also, my uncle gave each of my cousins 500 pesos. All I thought no one knew my uncle gave me 4000 pesos but my older brother teased me that I had a large amount of money on hand.
The party was a blast!!! My lola cried while watching the tribute I made for her. I collected her old pictures and the interviews. We had a mini theater especially built for the video presentation. And there were many visitors... the house was FULL... wow! I couldn't believe that the house could fit in that number of visitors...
February 10. The day after the party, my uncle and I left for Manila. The next day my Lola followed us.
My lola and I accompanied my uncle to the airport for his flight to New York. After that, my Lola and I stayed in Taft for the night. My lola was getting herself ready for her scheduled BOTOX operation in VICKY BELO CLINIC. My Lola is Kikay!!! She want to remove her wrinkles in her face. She spends so much just to make herslef beautiful. And I mean it when I say so much...
I assisted my lola and accompanied her going around the mall for shopping. Of course, I got to choose want I want and had her bought it for me. Hahaha! And I got to choose where I want to eat out.
February 12. My lola had her botox operation. The doctor was nice to us and explained everything.
Febraury 13. My lola left for Cagayan de Oro. And guess what, she gave me something to spend. hahaha!
But what I'm most happy about??? My uncle gave me his PORTABLE DVD PLAYER WITH A 7" SCREEN. Yehey! My uncle told me that he gave me the most expensive gadget he has ever given to any of my family. Lucky me!!!!
Well, isn't that a good start for the year??? I hope it will continue for the whole year... I'm praying!!!!
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!!!
