Happy Anniversary, my Dear Hubby!

Journalling reads:
It seems like it was just yesterday when I vowed to be your wife..your better half to love, honor and take care of you until eternity. Time flew but I didn't notice it passed by as I was busy falling in love with you more and more each day as I wake up beside you. On our first year of wedded bliss, I reflect on the many things that we have shared. Lots of hopes and dreams were fulfilled, and wonderful memories made. I can't ask for a better man to share my life with as you're already the perfect piece to complete the puzzle of my life. I am forever grateful to God for blessing me with such a gentle man who loves me unconditionally. I thank the Lord for bringing us together..thankful for giving me a man who loves me even more than I love him. On our first year anniversary, I want you to know that I still remain true with the vows I made at the altar. I do and will always love and take care of you until the end of no end. I love you so much, my baby!

Sickly

Seems like I won't be having a "chow"-ful Xmas after all...

1. i got colds..

2. i got an irritating cough..

and worst...

I'm nursing a swollen cheeks and gum..thanks to this impacted wisdom tooth. I will be undergoing a surgery this week to remove the tooth I have been complaining months ago. Waaahhh this is it..i know some of you have warned me of this already pero waah katakot huhu! Magpa-pasko pa naman. Pano na ang noche buena huhuhu! Pero kaya ko ito..temporary lang naman ang pain for several days pero ang results naman would be permanent and for the best :) Kaya wish me luck.

Ask...

and you shall receive....

Didn't I just post my Christmas Wish List entry a few days ago??? Yes! I got two of so many realistic and fanciful wishes that I enumerated:

1.) I now have the most recent Nicholas Sparks' release, Dear John...and my kris kringle baby was so kind enough to give me the hardbound one costing Php900+. Astig! (Eh kasi wala naman talagang paperback pa nun sa NBS hehe! I just wrote it anyway sa list ko nagbakasakali...and truly, my wish was granted haha!) Yipee..another addition to my Sparks collection. :) The only book that I'm missing is Three Weeks With My Brother. Di kasi siya nirelease dito sa Pinas...how I wish may friend ako sa Tate na mapagsuyuan. **wink-wink**

2.) My second wish that came true is..I'm now sporting a newly rebonded hair! Di masyadong kita sa pic but feel na feel ko na ulit maglugay ng hair hehe! Thanks to my dear hubby for this gift yihaa! Actually, don't know kung anniv gift ba ito or christmas gift or both na. Hehe! Whichever, thanks thanks ng marami :D

Now to update my wishlist...

2. Filipino Cookbooks (except Del Monte bec I have it already)

I will still keep on wishing..malay natin di ba? Balikan ako ni Santa hehe!

**My dad based in Saudi just called...uuwi daw sila sa Dec 17!! Yahoo! (Am I looking at another wish that'd be possibly granted?)

On another thought, I'd rather have our ultimate wish over all these material things. A wish for a life that we've been patiently waiting for, constantly praying for. But as they say..and as I say over and over on my thoughts and in my heart...ask and you shall receive...in God's perfect time.

Edited Dec. 24...I must have been really good this year. I have to scratch two more things off my wish list. Hooray! My wonderful husband gave me a nice bag and my dad gave me a Ralph Lauren perfume as pasalubong. :)

80's-themed Xmas Party

Journalling reads: It was my first Christmas Party with the CVG guys and it was a blast. Coming to the party all dressed up with an '80s theme, everybody was so game into it that all of us were clad in bright-colored-and-off-shouldered big blouses, large-buckled belts, denim mini-skirts, warm-coloredhigh socks or leggings, chuck taylor sneakers, teased bangs, big earrings, tucked-in fitted shirts topped with unbuttoned polo shirt, pinched-rolled or cuffed jeans. We also have this group presentation contest that was likewise 80s-themed. There were performances of Madonna, Michael Jackson, Cindy Lauper and even the Pinoy icon Hagibis. I'm just proud to say that our group won..must have been the group performance of Together Forever done Rick Astley style that mesmerized the judges. The food was awesome..various viands of beef and pork, fresh salad and the most salivating of all..the lechon (roasted pig) fresh from Cebu yum yum! In an instant..it was deboned to bits. There were also games participated by all and of course, the most awaited exchange gift were I got one of my christmas wishes, Nicholas Sparks' Dear John. Everybody went home tired but with smiles and new memories in tow. How I wish, such can be celebrated more often.

My Christmas Wish List

With the weekly Kris Kringle we have in our department that started a few months back, we'll be wrapping it up with a grand exchange gift at the Christmas Party tomorrow wherein it will be the babies' turn to give gifts to their mom or dad. We were asked to send our wish list with gifts at worth Php 500 or more. My mom's wish list is a massager she saw at Watson's which I still have to buy come lunch time. **Thank you mom for making it easy for me whew! **

And I pity my baby for I still haven't given my wish list hehe! **Edit: I just clicked the submit button of my wish list mail...hope he still has time to buy it** Well, my apologies..for some reasons, di ako makapag-isip ng gusto kong gift na worth Php 500. Kung pwede lang ba itong hilingin:

2. $100 worth of digiscrapping GCs

3. a laptop

4. a brand new mobile unit (preferably 3G-enabled, kahit ala namang ka-3G)

5. iPOD video

6. a getaway with hubby abroad (Hong Kong, Thailand or Singapore)

7. an additional Video Card for the PC at home

8. a GC at David's for Hair Rebonding service

1. Dear John (paperback) by Nicholas Sparks

3. Adobe Photoshop books, Java Programming books, Creating Website Books
