Wishing everyone a wonderful christmas filled with love and happiness=)
Goodbyes were never easy for me.So, when it was Mike's time to leave for Philippines you can just imagine how I felt. Everything was planned beforehand we would spend all our free times together that week. I asked to get switched from my work. We didn't go with our friends to Vegas and he would always come to my house after work.
Months before I already accepted that we're not going to spend holidays together. But as the day inches its way and sadness started to cripple in.Wala na.
I didn't plan to drop him off to the airport coz I don't want his relatives see me crying.So, after we said our goodbyes and hugs. I went straight to my car and drove home. Grabe!!crying to da max ako while driving. I decided to stop by the small botiques near our house so I can stop thinking about it. But I couldn't next thing I know I was asking for directions to LAX.tsk!As much as I hate driving there I still went. So, when I got there and he saw me and gave me tightest hug ever and all I can say is "Wala eh,dko matiis.
*His flight was delayed for 2 hrs so I was able to spend more time with him
*Now, all I want to think is 30 days will go by really fassssst...

It was raining hard and yet it didn't stopped us from going to SkiDazzle. I was looking forward to buy some clothes for our trip to the mountain but I couldn't resist buying my own ski boots.aaaaahh!!totally unplanned. but when I saw the ski boots and how well it fitted me.I gave in.It's so out of my budget but heck! I hate renting ski boots anyways so, I went for it. Even Mike end up buying snow boots.hehe. Then we went to check out some snow boards and skis. We we're both salivating looking at all those boards. All Mike could say was "kung ndi lng ako uuwi". I on the other hand was so close to getting the Rossignol Passion ski set(with binders and all).It was $220 down from $480.It's very much discounted but had to stop myself. If only we're not paying for our own wedding.lol My friends on the other hand was all souped up with winter gears on hand and burton boards and boots.lol Anyways, after shopping and claiming our free lift tickets for Snow summit and Big Bear we headed home.
-mahal ko carrying our boots-
*I'll post more pics later.

We started really early. Mike decided to just shop nearby instead of going to Cabazon outlet which would take 1 1/2 hrs drive. We 1st went to Toys R' Us. Mike is going home to Phil this Dec so he wanted to shop for toys for his niece and nephew and boy did we shop!! We got so many toys for them. I also got toys for my godchildren. Most of the toys we got are on sale. We were able to buy learning laptop, playdoh, singing and dancing spiderman, baby with 4 in 1 stroller, Barbie, activity walker, rc truck and medical kit which I luv bec. it was almost the same toy that made me think I want to be in a medical field when I was still young.
next stop was the mall, Mike bought a couple of pants and shirt from Old Navy and Hollister then we head off to Target. We only bought a couple of things there for pasalubong and I got my Devil Wear's Prada DVD.
Last stop for the morning was Costco and we bought a set of rechargeable battery, Teflon cooking set for mike's parents and chocolates for pasalubong again. After that we went to eat lunch then rest for a while then went shopping again but this time in the ritzy South coast Plaza.
I already warned Mike beforehand that I'm going to make a big purchase so he better not give me that "look". hehe, So, my choice is between these 4 bags. Aren't they all B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L??!! But I can only add 1 to my collection for now..So, which is which???
So, after so much thinking and salivating I chose this
I luv it. It will match my outfit on sunday and I'm going to get a lot of mileage from this bag. My only gripe is it was given to me in a small box so my bag is folded inside. I hate folded bags that's y I put paper inside my bags so it won't lose it's shape. My other LV bag comes with a right size box so no need to fold y can't they do the same thing dba?

Everyone is celebrating Thanksgiving right now here in Cali. Maybe not as festive as others celebration but as long as were recognizing the essence of this day that's all that matters.
My family don't have any fancy dinner or any turkey festivity prepared but we prayed together before dinner and gave thanks to all the blessings we have. I am particularly greatful this year for everything that happened. I graduated from nursing school, passed my boards (with the least no. of ?'s at that=), got hired at 3 hospitals(one of those is my CHOSEN hospital) and ofcourse got engaged with my first only love. Above all I get to experience all those things together with my family.
