I learned just now that Friendster Blogs are already running on Wordpress, my absolute favorite blogging platform ever. I know I sound like a gushing schoolgirl by saying that but I’m a huge Wordpress fan.

I almost abandoned this blog because the previous blogging interface was so “user - unfriendly” not to mention the mile-long multiple slash url.

I planned on deleting the blog just now but when I saw the Wordpress dashboard, I thought I might just have another reason to keep this blog and to be active in Friendster again.

Hmm…another way to feed my ever growing blogging addiction.

I’ve already got three blogs aside from this one: my passion blog, mish-mash blog and my personal blog plus another one on the way.

Let’s see if I can keep this up.

At least I’m practicing my writing which I think needs a real tune up.

More blogs anyone?

Can you guess who this kikay baby is?

Yup, that’s me.

I was looking for some photos that we could use for our invites and wedding AVP when I chanced upon this 24-year old snapshot.

I can’t really remember how this happened but Mama used to tell me a
story about how I would rummage through her make-up stack and imitate
her while she puts on some eye make-up.

I can’t really say that they disapproved of my fascination with make-up.

I’m guessing they supported my interest too. (Or maybe they gave in
to cute little me, pleading to try putting on a little make-up.)

It was one of those crazy nights.

A lot of thoughts were swimming in my head and I was tired of thinking.

I was surfing the net aimlessly when I clicked on Sandy’s online space.

Her name was familiar since I heard some people from the office go
to her to have their fortunes told. They referred to her as a
“manghuhula” (fortune teller) who told very accurate findings about
them and their future.

But she was not a fortune teller, I’d say she is something more special.

She is a soul card reader.

Another thought: Can she help me clear my mind?

His eyes always disappeared in his lids as a hearty smile lights up
his whole face. His shoulders would go up and down as he grins.

That’s how I remember Ace.

That’s how, I’ll always remember him.

No, I’m not giving birth within the week as I expected (and wanted). My OB says it might take another week.

She was supposed to give me my admitting orders for the hospital today but she said she’ll give it to me on my next check - up instead.

Judging from the position of my belly, she said I appear to have "lightened" a bit which means Jamaine is on her way down. But it seems my baby’s still taking her sweet time inside my belly because when Doc palpated my bump she said Jamaine is still floating and her head is nowhere near the birth canal.

Of course, I’m a little disappointed. Sometimes I wish I can pull the days until my delivery.
But what got me even more disappointed was the bad news…

I’m typing this in Infinity Gym’s resto over a healthy serving of tuna pasta in tomato sauce and a banana split shake. 
I’m still waiting for A who I’m supposed to meet in the GMA MRT station so we could go to the V Amihans’ dinner with Sir Lito together. I’m maximizing my vacation and spending some quality time with my friends whom I’ve sadly neglected for the past months due to work.

At last, I’m officially on vacation. Actually, I’ve been on vacation mode since last week.

Our team has been working real hard for the past months so we could have the luxury of a two-week, absolutely work-free holiday break. And it’s been really great.

I’m finally exiting the delicate stage of my pregnancy and entering what is generally considered the easiest phase. So I’m expecting everything would be downhill from here. Or at least until my third trimester begins.

The first three months weren’t very difficult though. Except for the occasional nausea and some rare instances of vomitting, I didn’t experience much of the dilemmas most women fear about pregnancy. Some of my friends would ask me if I would have moments like those in the TV and movies where the pregnant woman dramatically rushes to the sink to throw up. Nope, definitely never had that one.

12 am. October 10, 2006.

I was trying really hard to get some sleep but my eyes won’t keep shut. I glanced at Kernan who was still busy watching TV and browsing through Buy and Sell magazine at the same time. I guess he couldn’t sleep too.

We couldn’t possibly be having subconscious wedding jitters are we? Besides, it’s just our civil wedding. No fancy ceremonies or receptions, just close friends and our immediate families gathering for lunch.
