Thank you!

Last week was my birthday..oh  yes!  I'm getting older for better... I guess:). Thank you for all the greetings, to my FB wall, phone calls, emails and dinner...thank you! I guess those are enough reason to count my blessings! cheers to good life!

I did not plan for a big party since I'm jobless:) but happy. Seriously, I'm in battle of signing a new job contract or to take a little time for myself and spend holidays back home. I guess it would be perfect! spend Christmas with a real people that dear most to you....what  do you think?

So two of my girlfriends surprise me and we had dinner at Italianni's Restaurant Bonifacio High Street.

I adore Italian Food. I have good enough reason to believe that I'm a Sicilian native in my past life..lol The classico-thin-crust pizza was superb. Just the way a slice of real Italian pizza should be - fresh, thin and crunchy. The toppings, uhm…delizioso! and another one, the shrimp and mushroom linguine pasta- a yummy version of good old mac and cheese:)..I couldn't ask for more.... such an amazing  birthday dinner:)


Birthday is one of those days that we are reminded of how much money is in our pockets and how much we don’t like birthdays unless it is our own:)

And remember Birthdays are not only good because you get presents but also its time to tell your  self that you are one year wiser, not older.

Life is good!

    belated happy Bday Sunny=)
    to add to the "a year older, a year wiser" phrase, my friends always tell me that I'm "a year older, a year meaner" daw hehe.

    PS: I'd pick a holiday with family over work! ^^

    I love Italian food too. Re job contract signing, if it can wait for next year, spend your time with your family instead. Spending this holiday season with people close to your heart is the most important thing - recharging and rewarding.

    Belated happy birthday. :)

    oh.. Happy birthday sunny.. you're girlfriends are too sweet to surprise with such sosyal dinner. hehe.. I also love Italian food pasta and pizza uhhmmm... heaven.

    I think it's best to take a break for a while. It's a good idea to spend Christmas with your loved one. You can always go back and look for another job. I'm sure it's going to be easy for you. As for the giveaway you mention on my blog.. OMG please, I'm begging you ituloy mo na! haha.. My stickers are almost complete but i want to win it for my sister. hehe.. GO go go sunny.. hehe..

    Happy Birthday again. Wish you good health and more blessings! :)

    Hmm, I love Italianni's myself! & make sure I dine there whenever we're at home. Good luck with the decision making, I'm sure you'll come out with the best. (Di ba pwedeng magsign ng contract & tell them you'd like to start after the Holidays?) =)

Happy Halloween

 Halloween here in the Philippines is not like the Halloween in the Western countries. Although it’s a big holiday (comparable to Christmas here), we celebrate it in a different manner. Halloween in the Philippines lasts from the eve of October 31 (or even before this day) to November 2. Due to our strong Catholic background, Nov. 1 and Nov. 2 are spent remembering our dead loved ones and these dates will usually find most of us in one place only: the cemetery or the memorial park. We don’t celebrate it with pumpkins or trick-or-treats (although this Western tradition is sometimes practiced in some families / subdivisions here). We celebrate it through candles, flowers, prayers and a visit to the cemetery. You might think we have a very boring Halloween here. I mean, cemeteries, graves, prayers, etc. make it look like a serious affair. Not so. Spending Halloween in the cemeteries is a fun event. It’s like a mini-reunion for families and friends alike, a chance to have fellowship with

Starbucks Planner 2012- time to ingest gallons of caffeine!

I don’t have a problem with caffeine. I have a problem without caffeine…oh yes! I’m a self confessed coffee-holic. Last year, I suffered from gastritis due to over consumption of coffee but it didn’t stop me, my blood type is coffee and caffeine isn’t a drug, it’s a vitamin.:) So I switched to decaffeinated coffee (decaf). This coffee has less caffeine or 97% of its caffeine has been removed. It works with me. I no longer suffer from inflammation… goodbye antacids. I must admit that I love Starbucks,  (aaminin ko to, na-eenjoy ko talaga yung kape ng Starbucks bakit ba…social climber..OO ako na..hahaha.) so I often spend my rest day at WalterMart Makati Starbucks with a good book. Since it’s the nearest branch at di msyado maraming otaw…di magulo. Apart from their coffee, I’m a big fun of the yearly planner. Not for me but for my sister.  She has been receiving this gift from me for 3 years in a row na. sosyal at katapos back to 3 in 1 brown coffee na ulit...lol So by tomorrow, C
