Funny Pic of the Day

Supermom and fellow blogger Enchie asked me to post a funny pic, so here it is. This one's taken in CCF's 2007 Single's Retreat. Why would moi would go hand-rafting (if there's such a word) through a swimming pool wearing that bulky life vest? Well, my group mates and I participated in the Singles' Amazing Race, and this was just one of the 'gruelling' challenges we had to subject ourselves to (Obvious ba na hindi ako marunong lumangoy???). We didn't win, but it was so much fun bonding with great guys and gals who love the Lord.

Thanks, Enchie, for this tag. And thank you too for the blog award (I'll have to think of what weblog award to give 'ya). :-)

Are there sharks waiting for the boat to capsize? :-D

Crayola power!

As some of you know, I used to sketch and just spend an afternoon drawing, coloring, or being engaged in some form of arts and crafts. Aside from reading, I like to try my hand doing stuff that calls for one's imagination and creativity. But work and health problems got in the way. I've been wanting to draw and sew for quite some time now, but due to time constraints, again, I can't for now :-(

Meanwhile, let me leave you with some sampling of my own hand's work. Happy new year, eveyone. I hope that we would remember and be grateful for all the things that God has done for us this year :-)

P.S. Yes, I'm still in Christmas-y mode :-)

It was in Year 2008 when....

I donned a dress and danced the night away in our own version of a high school promenade.

Shimmery in maroon

for the first time...

I spent time with dear friends whom I haven't seen in a while.

Best buddies since college: Isa, Crystal and Agnes

We dedicated to the Lord my only niece, Ella Monique, on her first birthday.

royal milk?

cranky, crying baby

I missed a trip to Boracay and passed up the opportunity to rest and recreate (refresh and relax, too!).

Only 15 pesos for a roro trip? Not bad, huh.

Glorious and majestic Boracay sunset

A wanderlust's capture

I signed up with BSF and fell more in love with God and with life.

I met new friends and enjoyed the company of great guys and gals who love Jesus.

I joined a new discipleship group.

my new church family...

celebrating Jules' 40th bash @ Gumbo

I welcomed the new School Year with an added assignment: handling Japanese language instruction.

Yoneda Sensei gets immersed in Filipino culture for a day.

I was a godmother (yes, a ninang!) to the wedding of one of my teachers!

guess how old/young is that ninang in maroon...

I bonded with my teachers as we drew up a battle plan to increase English language achievement rate for our school.

We commemorated our 3rd founding anniversary and do look forward to more fruitful years in the future.

the winning website in the Regional competition...

yes, we were this close to being the champion...

go National!

wala lang :-)

Betchay demonstrates one of the animations...

wala lang ulit :-)

medals galore...and more to come!

I witnessed the much-awaited wedding of two high school friends, whose love story involved my bringing the portrait that Henri painted for Len during their courtship days.

Finally, husband and wife...

it all started with this group in high school...

I reunited with my family from mom's side when my dear grandpa passed away.

curly hair meets straight hair

my wacky family

I had so much fun playing tita-yaya last Christmas and New Year to my super adorable nephews and only niece.

My 2008 was super fabulous. Can 2009 be anything less? :-)
