Kati-kati

i am a bit tactile defensive...
i love wearing cottony clothes - plain white shirt or sando and shorts....
and dreaded wearing lacy dresses... iwww....
i almost died wearing a petticoat when i walked down the aisle ---
no! not as a bride hahaha but as a flower girl
at the wedding of Tito Vic and Tita Nora in the early 80's... (pictured above)
grabe! it was a real itch inducer and ang init sa katawan!

i'm with daddy, mommy, tito joe and tita mila here ;)

Pseudo-shy

Makulit akong bata... magulo... madaldal... hyper kung hyper...
but whenever I am around other people for the first time I get reaallyyyy shy...
natatahimik talaga ako and nagtatransform into an angel hehehe

Like in this pic... di ba? Mukha akong prim and proper...
This was taken at the wedding of Tito Frankie and Tita Luchie ;)
Siguro I was 2-3 years old here.... mukha pa akong kuting... ;p

Rock the Boat

Trying to row the boat in Burnham Park with Kuya Paul, Luke and Nanay...
If you read the previous post then you know what I did here... hehehe...

I like this post... less talk is better....
prob is most of the time i get carried away ;p

Summer of '84

This was my first ever trip to Baguio with the whole fam and nanay,
my grandma from mom's side....

i can vividly recall -----
dad's sloooow driving... picture-picture with the huge black lion with scary eyes...
mom forcing me to wear a bluish green sweater with matching vest...
me taking it off dahil di ako nilalamig... mom insisting that i wear it on (ang kulit!)...
me giving in and wearing it as shawl instead (see the pic)....

and how can i forget these----
riding and rowing the boat in Burnham Park... rocking it...
and peeing on it (nagulat na lang sila nagwiwi ako don hahaha)....
riding a pony at Wright Park... then big black horse approaching from behind
scaring my pony... and pony throwing me off in the process!!!
thank God i landed on grassy grounds!!!

hmmm what else....
the house we rented for three days which accdg to my mom was haunted...
the knight rider car.... luke nangungulit, asking dad to buy him a horse and he did!
pero wooden horse lang hahaha... picture-picture with igorots at mines view,
climbing up the grotto getting excited at first then getting disappointed
when i saw how high it was and can't count the steps anymore....
then getting exhausted after scaling it (who wouldnt?!) ... phew!
and peanut brittle, fresh veggies and strawberries!
lots and lots of strawberries! ;p

gee... baguio was heaven!

Little Baldy

i was days away from my 1st birthday and just came out of the hospital
after --- days of being confined due to Hfever...

and that bald spot there? well, that's where the IV app/needle finally landed
after (numerous!) failed attempts of attaching it to my hand and arm...
nope not because i ain't got any superficial veins...
i was sooo uncomfortable that i kept pulling it off!

anyway, thanks to tita violy, tita ellen and nanay
who spent sleepless nights taking care of me...

Of Lubdubs and Murmurs

To my friends ---

This "door" to my heart is now open...
And you are all welcome to come in!!!

Inside here you'll see,
all the things that made me... ME!
people... places... things... thoughts... experiences... dreams...
frozen memories and mental images of anything and everything
that makes my heart beat or even skip a beat! whaah!

Soooo feel free to explore to get know me more!!! ;)
