being Rafa...

As a young girl, I never considered myself as a sporty type of person. I despise my P.E. subjects. It felt more of an obligation rather than enjoyment.
But of course, I played sports like badminton or table tennis but I did it only because some of my friends were playing it. Also I liked doing other stuffs like shopping, sleeping, eating or hanging out rather than spending time sweating out. yeech.
Somehow, People do change. I'm now enjoying sports. I love sports. I love watching sports. I wait for NBA Play-offs. I stay up late watching Tennis Tournaments, I even watch the Olympics.
And hell yeah, I watch Manny Pacquiao fights.
I've appreciated basketball since I was in my teens but never did I became so obsessed with these sweaty guys in their jerseys. Whenever I see tennis tournaments, I only notice how neat and cute their outfits are.
But now, I'm an uber sports fanatic. Especially Basketball and Tennis.
My favorite NBA team is the L.A. Lakers with my forever MVP, Kobe Bryant 24

Former ATP World number one and ranked number 2 since August 2008. The tennis genius, Roger Federer.


And the uber hot with the nice ass hehe current ATP World Number one, Rafael Nadal.



Yup! I sooo adore them. I'm an uber uber fan of both sports. It somehow helped me appreciate sports even better. Hehe.




A billiard babe??? Am I too serious or what? Nah... maybe in the future. I will be.
Becoming the next Nadal??? Hehe! I wish. Maybe... Hehehe
What does uber mean? Uber... meaning Super, over, grabe, sobra.

The Unborn baby that I super love...

My sis is expecting their first baby by December of this year. Finally! Yey! That only means...

I'm going to be an aunt. I'm uber excited!!!

Introducing...

My unborn "pamangkin" in its very first photograph. :-D







Isn't it so obvious that I am so proud? I Can't wait to see this baby!!!

Mom's Day...

A mother laughs our laughter,

Sheds our tears,

Returns our love,

Fears our fears.

She lives our joys,

Cares our cares,

And all our hopes and dreams she shares.



To mom,

Thank you for bringing me into this beautiful world.

For always supporting and guiding me,

For the love and care.

Mom, I thank you not only by all these.


But having you as a mother is everything I need.

I love you.

Happy Mother's Day.




To all the mothers out there,

THANK YOU!

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!

(Mother's day is largely celebrated every second Sunday in May (though there are other dates for it too).

Due to different time zones, it still might not be Sunday is some parts of the world.

But it's never too early to say THANK YOU to our Mom's anyway. ☺☺☺

Zorro's Goodbye.

As I'm writing this blog, Tears still can't keep itself from falling.
My eyes are too swollen to see what I'm doing but I want to finish this entry while all the strong mix of emotions are present.


My dog Zorro got sick last night. I was so scared and sad for I knew that he might die. I couldn't sleep the whole night for I keep checking on him. He was already doing well and I could say at that moment that he would make it. He would be okay and that everything would be fine. Or so I thought.

Early this morning, Zorro wasn't too well. His temperature had gone up and he wasn't responding at all.
As we were on our way to the vet's clinic, I saw the life on Zorro's eyes slowly fading away. It was such a sad moment for me.

Though I knew that my beloved puppy is gone, I still didn't give up. We still went to the vet. Silently hoping that there would be a way to revive him.

But there was none. There was no way he could've make it. It was perhaps his time.

What makes me sad is I feel that I lost Duchess all over again. Zorro was my dog's puppy and when she died. I promised myself that I would take good care of her puppies so that I still have her eventhough she's gone.



But I have to face reality. He's gone and I have to move on. I'm gonna miss him.


As what my mom always say, Pets sometimes die to save its owner's family from sickness or even death.
It may be true. So eventhough he died, I still have many things to thank him for.
The happiness he gave us and perhaps saving a member of the family.

Lovin my Bob

I'm naturally adventurous when it comes to trying out new things. I have the tendency to get bored and tired of having the same look each time. I like change.

Take my hair for example. I've had bangs, from mid cut to long layered hair and I even had my already straight hair straightened. :P but it still were not enough change.

And so, I had my naturally Medium Brown hair dyed burgundy.

Yesterday, I had a haircut.

I decided to follow this season's so called the new "bob cut".
A "bob cut" is a short haircut in which a weighted area is left to fall between the ears and chin. It became modern for women in the early 1920s, and in the 1970s it became popular as a men's style.
According to wiktionary.org, a bob haircut is defined as a women's haircut in which both the bangs and back are cut in a straight line, with the back generally off the neck.

Almost everyone in Hollywood has this hair. From Posh to Kat.

Even Kris Aquino has this cut.



I admit, I am pretty scared of cutting my hair short and end up looking totally weird.

Well, it has been eight years since I last had this ugly-looking short hair. SHHH!
(It was my mom's idea)
That was summer of 2000. Sob!

It wasn't really that bad. Actually, It was quite cute.

But when you're young, especially when you're in you're teens and you're in highschool.
God!
Everyone has this image of having long black hair as cool and beautiful.

I really can't forget my friends reaction when they saw me with my new haircut that day. :-(
It was like " Girl, What has gotten into you?"
I remember how I tried so hard had to pretend I liked my new hair. (Hehehe)
And seeing my pictures then, grrrr!!!! I hated it.

So right then and there. I told myself, I will never dare try to cut my hair short ever again.

Well, I guess I ate what I said. Hahaha!

I asked my hairdresser Phalla to cut my hair exactly as Hayden Panettiere's.



Ta-Da! Introducing my new haircut!


I'm happy to say that I finally had the courage to cut my hair short. And I'm soooo happy with the result!






I've made a practical and good decision to cut my hair because It is summer and it's really "hot".
Still I managed to be stylish and beautiful. hehehe!

In loving memory of A.R.D.

Today marks the seventh year of his death.

I still can't believe that it has been a long time since I've last seen him.
A couple of weeks ago, My sis and I had a little talk about this man.
Remembering the times we spent with him is a treasure no one can ever take from us.
It made us cry as we reminisce the past.

I have wanted to make something for him for such a long time. May it be a poem, a song, a painting or a story. Anything just to honor him and his life.

Antonio delos Reyes Dames died on March 20, 2002 at the age of 51 due to severe pneumonia and heart failure. Everything had been so sudden. Though he had been suffering with Congested Heart Failure for years, we were not prepared for his passing away.

He was my hero and my number one fan. He was my father.
I love him and miss him so much.
I know that wherever He may be, He's always guiding and protecting us.
