I love you more today then yesterday


Have you ever seen an old couple strolling in the mall and still holding each other's hands? Just strolling. Enjoy each other's company. Content and happy.

This is the state I want to be in when I am old and gray.

After 5 years of being with Red, I am certain that when we are both old and gray, he would still continue to hold my hand while we're strolling in the mall. Just like the way he does right now.


On our way to Tagaytay

For our 5th anniversary last September 17, we decided to celebrate it in Tagaytay. Where the breeze is cooler and the ambiance is more romantic.


Viewsite Restaurant taking photos while waiting for our food

Since we were running a bit late, we had our lunch at around 3PM at Viewsite Restaurant. Like the usual Tagaytay restos in the area, they have a group of singers with guitars which would play a requested song at each table for a small donation. So while we were eating our crispy pata, ginataang kalabasa and bulalo soup, the group of singers went to our table. Since it was our anniversary, I requested them to play a really mushy song which is Wella's parents theme song (wala akong originality):

Each time we meet love
I find complete love
Without your sweet love
What would life be

So never leave me lonely
Tell me you love me only
And that you'll always let it be me

So there. That's the romantic part of our anniversary. Sayang wala kaming digicam. We wanted to take lots of pictures in Tagaytay so we had to make do of his camera phone. After lunch, we went to Josephine's to inquire their wedding reception package. We were lucky enough because there was a wedding reception going on so we were able to visualize it and how it would be if we had our reception there. After our ocular inspection (naks! serious na ba to?), we went to Raja - a Korean massage place. I treated Red and myself to a foot spa and foot reflex. It was a nice experience because we haven't done this together. So kahit na mahal and hindi ako masyadong masaya with the massage, ok lang din. I'll just charge it to experience.

After that, we headed back to Taal Vista to take a short nap before going out for dinner. Since we had a really late lunch, we had dinner at around 10:30 PM. I wasn't hungry yet so we went to Starbucks to have coffee and dessert. Unfortunately, it was a wrong move to stay at Starbucks because we found out that it was the ultimate gimmick place in Tagaytay. For short, our romantic coffee experience was not so romantic after all. So we finished our coffee and cakes and decided to go to Casino Filipino. We stayed for about an hour... di kasi kami nananalo. But it was still fun. By 1AM, we were so tired and decided to call it a night.

Red and I. We can be alike in some ways but totally different in a lot of ways also. Being together for 5 years was not a stroll in the park. To make "us" work, we really had to work for it. Compromises and sacrifices had to be made as well as understanding and acceptance of each other. I am glad that I found Red because with him I know that even if I complain a lot, bitch around a lot, throw temper tantrums, act like a spoiled brat as if the whole world revolves around me, and just be unreasonable at times... by the end of the day, I know that he loves me and I love him and that even if we are old and gray, we will still continue to hold each other's hand.

Welcome



"I am a poster girl with no poster. I am 32 flavors and then some..."


Who is Maan?


Very talkative, very frank to the point of being tactless. Major hyper active and super kulit. Tampuhin, selosa and madalas may topak. Psychotic but bearable most of the time. Pakialamera. Addicted to those excel quizzes and surveys forwarded through e-mail. Have learned how to say no to FREE FOOD and resist the temptation of buffets. Listens to The Morning Rush with Chico and Delamar and is a major fan of Sex and the City. Fiercely loyal to friends (especially the under dogs). Can't dance, can't sing, can't act but very OA (Outstanding Actress). Doesn't smoke, drink nor do drugs but definitely a great girl to hang out with (sagot ko na ang kwento). Cynical on the outside but a hopeless romantic deep inside. Tries not cry over a guy but will shed buckets of tears while watching a movie. Escapes from the real world by reading books, watching movies,and tv shows. Dreams of travelling the world someday and joining The Amazing Race with a friend who knows how to swim, ride a bike and drive a car.
