Week-end at Sentosa & Chinatown




Saturday was spent at Sentosa with cousins & their parents. Did not get around too much though, we went only to the Underwater World, rode the cable car, rode the Viewing Tower then watched the Musical Fountain show. While aunt, uncle and one cousin were inside the Underwater World, me, labs & other cousin just laze around one of the umbrellas in Dellifrance, sipping coffee and taking mid afternoon snack….okay din natuwa naman mga oldies sa mga isda dun…as usual this was our nth trip already.





Sunday was spent at Orchard Road and Chinatown respectively. They had a lovely time finding good buys at Chinatown…ayun sa kaka 3 for 10dollars ay naka 200plus din sa total cost hehehe, at least enjoy naman. Compared to Orchard it was really cheaper there…and the place is so nice, has an authentic old feel about it. It's one of the main tourist attractions here.

Tomorrow I'll try to get them our corporate pass for Jurong Bird Park. I'm sure the oldies will enjoy the sight there, not so sure about cousin Teddie though hehe…lakad lakad for exercise….

Lipat Bahay na….

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….

The legend of St. Valentine

Received thru email.... Today, February 14, candies, gifts, and most especially flowers, will be exchanged between loved ones as the entire world celebrates the most romantic holiday of all, Valentine’s Day. Traditionally, it is a time from all walks of life to express affection and devotion to their loved ones. But while this occasion has always been associated with love and romance, legend tells us that the history of Valentine’s Day — and its patron saint — is shrouded in mystery. Although it hasn’t been proven historically, there were purportedly seven men named Valentine who were honored with feasts on February 14. Of these seven men, two stories link incidents that could have given our present day meaning to St. Valentine’s Day. One of these men named Valentine was a priest during the reign of Emperor Claudius. Valentine was very much revered by the people, with the young and old, rich and poor, attending his services. At this time, Emperor Claudius was actively recruiting men to

Hagya nang nakaupo....

Sunday and as usual chima-a-a ang role ng lola...ngayon lang ako naka upo at naka sulat dito. Pero tuwa naman ako at nakatulog ako ng husto kaninang umaga, 10am lang naman ako bumangon... Dami ko ginawa today, linis room, palit beddings and towels, linis bathroom, cook lunch, do filings, pick up clothes for recycling and at the same time separate those not being used but still new and will sent back home. Naka luto na rin ako ng para sa hapunan at sisimba daw kami ni kumander by six pm. Nakapagbake pa ko ng bread pudding, ayos din parang custard cake....almusal din yun sa opis bukas.... So sign off muna ko at still have a bit to do before going to church....
