Happy Birthday Jolo M…..





Six years ago dumating sa buhay namin si Jose Paolo. Second baby ng sister ko and our second nephew. He is so totally different from his big brother. I can say big brother Iel looks exactly like their father and Jolo looks like my sister. Kung gano kalaki si Iel ganun naman kaliit si Jolo. Nung ipinanganak sya wala na ko sa Pinas so hindi ko nakita ang paglaki nya, sabi nila kulot na kulot din ang buhok nya and mahaba ang pilik mata and malimit mapagkamalan na girl kasi yung mukha nya parang sa babae hehehe…..So porke wala ako sa pinas ang kilala lang nya ay si Tita Chel nya and he will not remember me. Recently na nga lang nya ako nakilala and to think Ninang pa ako hahaha…

Madaming kuento si Jolo, iba ibang anecdotes na nakakatawa: Napaka conscious sa pananamit, pati sa buhok, pag hinahatid ng Tatay sa school eh sa likod daw sumasakay kasi mapapayid daw buhok nya, meron pa yang cologne sa bag nya hehe….makulit na bata, at laging sya ang sumasagot sa telepono pag tumatawag kami, minsan ayaw makipag usap, minsan naman daldal ng daldal. Mas malimit ang magbilin ng iba't ibang laruan basta kausap kami.

Maka Papa sya (lolo nya), meron Papa/Mama Sambat at meron Papa/Mama Bayan. Yung Sambat eh sa side namin at yung Bayan ay sa side ng bayaw ko. At gaya ng Papa Sambat nya mahilig sya sa kape at suman, sinukmani at kung ano anong local na kakanin.....naalala ko pag nagkakape ang tatay kelangan meron din sya sa tasa nya and hilera sila dun ng Tatay sa me hagdan, mga three or four yata sya nun hehe..

Today Jolo will have a small celebration daw sa kanilang munting garden with the rest of family lang and special request attendance of Kuya Arvin...

So HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOLO and wish you more happiness to come, from all of us here (Tito, Tita & Tita)...

Lipat Bahay na….

Image
Natuloy din ang paglipat nila sa bagong bahay,. Nitong nakaraang tatlong araw e linis at lipat sila ng ibang kagamitan sa bagong bahay. At kanina nga madaling araw e lumipat na sila, siempre kumpletos rekados sa mga parapernalya gaya ng asin, tubig, bigas, ilaw, at kung ano ano pa para daw sa magandang buhay sa bagong bahay… Alas diyes ng umaga, sinundo ang pari para sa blessing ng buong bahay. Simple lang seremonyas, at sila sila lang pamilya ang naroon. Naghanda ng kiriroy o tutong yata iyun (tsalap nun ha)…. Ganun lang ka simple…..para sa simpleng buhay…. Hay salamat at natapos din…. Next adventure, filling-up the house with new things as the old things seems out of synch somehow….

Another Lunch...

My DC group treat me out today. Again another thai restaurant. Natutuwa naman ako at madami rin naman ang nagpapahalaga sa akin lalo na at malapit na akong umalis dito. And since every month yata ay may umaalis ang biruan ay paliit na lang ng paliit ang table pag me lunch treat sa isang umaalis. Alfred was saying that at the end it will only be him in a fast food restaurant wishing himself well with a combo meal hehehe... Enjoy naman ako sa lunch namin. I was with Cons, Alfred, Jenny, Kui cheng, Joyce, Shao qing and Lina. Thanks guys...

Leaving Home for the kids Future…

Is this always the case for most of the families back home, willing to suffer being away from each other so the kids will have better future?? As it is my brother in law will leave tomorrow for Libya on a commissioning job. He has resigned on his permanent post as supervisor in the process industry near our place to earn more. His earnings on the local job, though not that minimal is not enough for the increasing expenses of kids going to school and at the same time managing the everyday living expenses aside from house mortgages. Such is the life of middle class earner back home. And such are the cases of continuous giving-up of permanent positions and good pays to go out of the country and earn more, at least earn enough to have all the basic necessities covered up….. What’s really sad to know is that my nephews will probably grow up without their father’s guidance. Their father will not be there to see the important events in their growing –up years, all the milestones on their scho
