Tears over lunch
On my way out to the shop today, I saw a card outside my room. It was the card from my cousins for our lola mommy. My mom left it there for me to read. It was the card she was telling Pam yesterday. The beautifully written card - she said.
A little background about my cousins- Nikki (who was 18yrs old then), Nikko (16 years old then, I think) and NicNic (the youngest) grew up with my lola when they were still here in the Philippines. When they migrated to the U.S., lola mommy stayed with us in our home.
Back to the card.
I opened the card while eating lunch...
It was a tri-fold card for her birthday dated 2005.

I read Nikko's letter first:

I find him hilaious as always.
I got teary eyed while reading Nikki's letter. She was the closest to our lola and she really did take good care of her even if she makes fun of her alzheimer sometimes.
When our lola passed away, I was told that Nikki was the one who cried the most. She received the news even before her mom did. She called her mom and told her the news while driving and had to pullover because she was crying terribly. I can just imagine her.
Lola Mommy never get to see Nikki, Nikko and NicNic before she passed away. They weren't even allowed to go home for the funeral because of their visa.
Thinking back about last night, while we were watching mama's interview for Proud Mama - She asked and wonders if who's going to cry the most if she's gone.
I think I know now the answer.

Finally, a time for blogging (even if the shop have free wifi - I just couldn't find time to do so.)
Almost one week has passed after Oh Shoot!'s launch and exhibit party. Thank you to all those who came and to all those who bought stuff, strangers and friends alike. :)
Big thanks to Deli France and C2 Life for the food sponsor.
And to my friends who were with me through out the preparation, THANK YOU!

What if God was one of us?
This guy caught my attention big time. He was quietly almost-God-like-slowly gazing around the jam-packed boarding room of the domestic airport when I noticed we was standing in front of the Christian bookstore. I wanted to take a photo of him but I was too amazed with his presence and scared that he might get annoyed with me taking a photo of him.
When we finally got a seat while waiting for our boarding time, I was again starstruck to see this big guy seating behind us. I was more amazed when he pulled out his ipod from his bag. I knew I just have to shoot him, kahit na tabingi. Kerker.

Jaggy plays the violin
This was taken yesterday at my niece and nephews' school program at ABS-CBN Studio 1. They sound good all together, but when I asked Jaggy to play solo after the program...
Haha. Still, I find it cute.
