After Christmas Celebration

Yea, the party didn't stop just that. After the reunion, me and my cousins had a second round party at Serve, Araneta. The place wasn't that cool. HAHA! But yea, I had fun with my cousins. :)
Here are the captured moments:


Yan nalang ang mga walang asawa na pwede gumimik magkakasama. hahaha! Phoebe (the one in blue) is my cousin's (Ryan) girlfriend. She's just soo cool to party with us even Ryan isn't around. Ryan had to go home early for he has a work the next day. Jona (the girl in violet) is Keneth's girlfriend. She's a shy type girl but knows how to party and dance like crazy when the time asks her to do so.. LOL These lovely girls ROCK! :)

Jeck, the one who surprised the clan with his dramatical entrace. NAKS! Maarte! Umeeksena! Edi ikaw na! hahahah! Srsly, I miss you buddy! Congratulations for your soon to be daughter! inunahan mo nanaman ako. may magagawa pa ba ako? haha! CHEERS!

Madam, Daisy and Jeck. Kame ang magkakaage sa magpipinsan. Oh well, mauuna na si Jeck magasawa. Si Dais, going strong with her girlfriend in Dubai. Me? I'm single. LOL

So we headed to 13th Ave after we partied at the bar. We slept till 10am I think had breakfast and started "In Between" na sugal. Sarap. Umabot sa 2400+ ang pot money! WOW LANG! Oh well, I didn't win. I didn't lose either. Bawi lang. Hehehe! Si bonjing! Bigtime! Totee and I left at 5pm. We arrive home like 6something. At home, while playing with my nephnews, Rj was calling me. I know we're goin to have a Christmas party at Tj's but the hell I'm too tired to come so I opt to ignore his calls.

Meanwhile, Rj and Sarah arrived. LOL They fetched me. E ung hindi pako naliligo? WOW lang. Inintay nila ako. I handed my gift to my inaanak Marley and we went to Tj's after which.

Here's the captured moments:

First tagay! langya! ako tong walang tulog ako pang tanggera! ano pa nga ba? haha!

Konte namin that night. Madaming di pwede. Maraming may party rin sa ibang lugar.

The ladies, WOW onte ah!

With JJ, the drunken master!

With Jon, the tatoo master-soon-to-be-dad! taray!

JAY with Sarah Mae Marbella-Payumo! Naks payat ni sarah mae oh. Hintayin natin sa Birthday ni Marley. Naks!

E ung ang agang nagkaamats si Sarah. I left at 3am ata. Tulog na si Sarah e. So I went home na! Pwede bang pumass na next time. Wala ng paglalagyan ang alak sa katawan ko. LOL hahaha!

Happy Holidays everyone! I hope you all had fun last Christmas!

How I spent Christmas

As expected, I am snoozing before the Noche Buena up until the next day. I wope up earlier than usual to prepare for our yearly Family Reunion with my Deniña clan. Time flies so fast, last Christmas we had a RED color theme for our reunion, this year, GREEN is the color.


Taken last Christmas. Held at 15th Ave?

Aww, compare my pamangkins above! They're all grown ups now! Look at Kelly, Pong and Kian. Ang cucute nila. This year we're wearing green. CUTE NO?

Here's our Family Tree. So you won't be puzzled why the hell we got a big big clan. My lolo and lola got 9 kids. My father is the 4th child.

Mixed of pamangkins, cousins, uncles and aunties

We're the first family arrived in the location. So gutom ang inabot namin LOL Aww look at us. Ayan na kame ngayon. My Kuya Glenn's really envious with this pic. I miss Jack badly. Next year, umuwi ka na! Please lang!

Here's the original Deniña kids! (Panget pakinggan, fine! Deniña siblings nalang) Uncle Romy, Auntie Edith, Uncle Lando, my tatay Efren, Uncle Cefe, Auntie Elsie, Uncle Eden, Uncle Obet and DADA. I'm actually close to all my uncles and aunties, most especially to those who lived at Pasig. I lived with them for years before and decided to stay home nalang because of lonesome (may ganon?). Anyway, my favorite auntie is uncle Obet's wife, aunt Emily. She's my second mom. Dada's a cool aunt. I love her to death.

Here's the kid's generation. All the pamangkins. So those kids are mag sesecond cousins. Ang cute. ang dami. Damn, I'm so pressured to have one of my own kids posing over there. HAH! SOON SOON! ;p

Wacky Shot

At ito ang magfifirst cousins. LOL ang dami lang. Kulang pa nga yan! OMG! Dati para lang kameng ganyang kaliliit sa taas just like our pamangkins. Now, yan na! ang daming big time jan naks! Isa nako dun! LOL charing lang ungguy!

Few things happened before Christmas

APC FRIENDS
Apc friends had a mini mini Christmas party held at Central, Madison, Mandaluyong. At the same time, it was Martin's blow out since he had his Birthday last November. I only got 2 pics to show. (MY PICS to be exact. LOL)


I am just happy to show that my hair is getting longer. Though yea it's not that pretty, well I'll gonna have it rebonded prolly early next year, if my time permits me. ;).

HS (South Crest School) Friends
My girls had a pre-Christmas party at Chen's crib. We had this kaartehan na we had to dress up to show everyone we're all grown ups now.. See here we are after 10 years :)

That's us holding one of Chen's cocktails! We look so matured na no? hahaha

Few of my girlfriends showed up. Others we're sick. Well yea, the weather is actually horrible so everyone's suffering from illness. Like Carla's sick that time. She can't say no to us since her crib is just few blocks away from Chen's house.


Here I am wearing a polka dress. Duh? I know my theme's for New Year. Wala lang, I wanna skip Christmas kase, kaya nakapang New Year nako. Anuver? Hahaha


We brought potluck foods and Chen of course serve delish foods made by tita Annie and herself :) [I brough Amber Pancit Malabon]


Chen made cocktails. Para maiba naman daw. Tipong di kame ung nainom sa may kanto lang. haha. That's Pink Milk and Blue Margaritta I think

Meet Anne Curtis and Kris Aquino! Bakit ba? walang pakelamanan LOL

Aizeee (the single lady LOL), and Oge (in a relationship for 4 years naks!), Via Carisse (the engaged mas lalong naks!) EDI AKO NA LOSER FINE!


I picked number 1 for the exchange gifts. I got Carla's present. It's a set of body shop perfume, lotion, and body wash! Thanks dude! I loved it I'm actually wearing the scent today ;)! (and sorry for the yosi thing goin on there. LOL)


Everyone went home with Chen's giveaways! Nice Nice! Thanks Chen!

Had a fun and tiring night. I went home at 5am I guess. Karleen texted. I picked her up at VM Town Homes. We slept until 1pm the next day. :)

The next day...

Karleen, Totee and I are having lunch. Meanwhile Martin arrived with 2 box of Krispy Kreme. We went to Festival Mall with my friends. Had coffee at Starbucks and went to mass at 9pm.

Here are the captured moments:


Look at my hair, awww it's really getting longer and longer! YAY!

Steady Christmas

I remember last year we cooked a lot of food, I got tons of presents for my godchildren and family and yea I was actually preparing myself for the night. But I was too exhausted that I can't even eat noche buena with my entire fam. I was asleep the whole night and got up the next day to prepare for the family reunion. Last year, I was too depressed. Same feeling I had last December Twenty Five, Two Thousand and Seven. Very far from what I felt last December Twenty Five, Two thousand and Six. It was a blast! I have my family, my friends, I got a great job, and most especially I have my other half. It was indeed a fun fun night. When all I knew was having fun and not exactly entertaining the reality we had at that moment.

Three years have passed and somewhat I became numb with the feeling of being sad. Yea, I'm still actually a lil bit into it, but not totally depressed compared to the last 2 years. Maybe because the feeling is already in my system and now I know how to control it and I know when to ignore it. This year was still a roller coaster ride for me. Different challenges, tons of happenings, a lot of special and not so special dates. Many people I encountered. People who came and who were gone. People who stayed and whom I asked to let go. This year, blessings were over flowing. Thanks to BRO who didn't left me behind. Who stayed with me all the time. BRO, I wouldn't be this strong if I don't have YOU in my life! Thanks for listening to my rants and thanks for guiding me all through out. Without YOU, I am nothing. I can not survive without YOU.

Three years have passed, still I'm here, standing but no longer fighting. I am okay. Better compared before. I've done so many things in my life. Some I regret and some were really cherished. I love the people around me. Those who came by and to those who stayed. I've learned a lot of things and I wouldn't be this strong without all the experience I've been through.

It's one hour to go, and we'll be celebrating BRO's Birthday! We wont be having it as fancy as last year perhaps. But I'm happier now. I didn't go to mass yet, I know BRO understood how dead tired my body is. He knows in my heart and in my mind, I'm celebrating His big day full of LOVE, HOPE, and PEACE!

I might be alone again now. Meaning without other half by my side. Admitting it'll be wonderful celebrating this special occassion with someone else. But yea, I know BRO has His own reason why I'm alone. It could be:
1. He'll bless me with new partner in life.
2. Ex and I will be reconciled for the 4th time here in the outside world. or
3. BRO wanted me to take care of my parents as they grow old.

Whatever BRO plans for me, I'll embrace it whole heartedly.

One hour to go, I might not again eat with my fam same as last year. But I definitely could say.... I'm happier now. I'm more focused and I'm not gonna sleep with a tear in my eyes but a smile in my heart.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRO! Cheers!

Change of Plans :)

Done with my Christmas gifts lists for inaanaks/family/loved ones. I was very enthusiastic earlier that I saw myself writing which gift I'd like to give not only to my inaanaks and families but for most of my clan and friends. And now I was like WOAH WOAH WOAH.. This is ridiculous! LOL Am I Santa? Why would I give everyone when I really don't have any budget for that, plus HEY! I've seen the list after, I was like! HOLYMOLYGUACAMOLY! I got everyone a gift, how bout myself???? COME ON! hahaha! Didn't get myself a Birthday gift last month, now I'm not getting myself a Christmas gift AGAIN? hmmmm. Fine, lemme change my list now. LOL
