A magcal night.

Tito Boy, the Wudjiman, invited us to see their magic show. It is my second year to witness the event. Just like last year, it was held at the auditorium of PhilAm Life at UN Avenue.They had entertainment for guests who came in early. Clowns were doing tricks, clowns walking and dancing on stilts, a guy playing like a mannequin, and clowns doing balloon twisting.
It wasn't just a show, but a battle of the champions. There were 9 champions competing for the title 'Champion of the Champions'. Rico won the title.

My kikay baby Summer had fun watching the show.Thank you Tito Boy for inviting us!

The Search.

I lost the bezel of my only Tag Heuer watch more than a decade ago. I brought it to the local service center and my watch stayed with them for months waiting for the missing part to arrive. Until I decided to just get it from them without having it fixed.

And so I was searching over the net for the missing part when I came upon this site. Shopwiki is the best site to go shopping. It did not just help me think of great gift ideas for my nephews and nieces, it offered great prices too! Plus, the perks of hassle-free and traffic-free going to shops and stores just to buy the gift, when you can do it online.

Hmm... what about an Xbox for a family gift? What do you think?

I need it!

My pair of glasses are old already.

My lens does not fit my eyes anymore. I just gave birth with my second baby two months ago so I need to change my glasses. I'm not sure if it applies with those who gave birth, but my eye grade goes up every time I give birth.

We will be traveling soon so it's a must for me to buy a new pair. And I want one with a sun sensor. My hands will be full with a toddler and an infant in tow, and without a nanny at that too! I cannot afford to depend on a pair of contact lenses just to be able to wear a pair of sunglasses. So, it will be great to have an eyeglass and a sunglass in one. Plus, something that's great for picture taking too!

I was browsing over the net, came across Zenni Optical, and came up with the exact eyeglasses I was looking for.

It couldn't get better! It's even so affordable! With all my previous expenses in giving birth and my upcoming expenses for our scheduled trip, I cannot afford to go with an expensive wear.

I'm even considering giving these away for Christmas gifts! I am so excited!

Surgery.

It was Feb. 29 of this year when we rushed Odie to the ER due to blurred vision.

It was March when he was diagnosed with Cancer of the germ cell, a very rare case. He had his first surgery at the end of the month for biopsy.

He had his monthly sessions of chemo since then. He had a total of 6 cycles of chemo therapy until his tumor reduced its size and safer to be removed.

He was admitted at the hospital yesterday and had his surgery today, and it's Onnie's birthday. It was a successful 8-hour operation. They had to cut almost half of his left lung where the tumor grew. A capsule-size tumor was left, located along the artery, since it was too risky to scrape it off.

It was one of the longest operation of the doctor.

Let us all pray for his speedy recovery. Thank you!

Welcome back, Lissa!

After a year of taking her masters in Landscape Architecture and a year of working in the US, Lissa went home again to the Philippines.
Kuya Ed organized a welcome dinner for her. We had it at Bahay Ligaya and had filipino dishes.As usual, it was a loud night. We were not complete, yet enough to make it a fun night. We set our christmas party tentatively on Jan. 3, 2009.

Welcome back Lissa!

Running Errands

I was assigned to do an errand for Daddy at Makati and Kuya offered to drive for me.

The transaction ended at lunch time and I've thought of trying Pepper Lunch at Rockwell. Kuya's the best buddy to bring to try out a new resto. I like rice, I like rice topping, I like them hot, so I like Pepper Lunch. I will surely go back and will bring Omar.

I had Beef Pepper Rice, one of their best sellers.
Kuya had Cut Steak with Rice.And what better way to end our food trip with a dessert - Choco something from Crepes and more.It's so yummy to run errands for Mom and Dad, specially when you're with Kuya =).
