I feel lighter

Met up with my ex Sharon this afternoon, with Jen's blessing of course.

When I saw her, she was carrying a small Duty-free bag, pasalubong nya daw! Took a peek and saw one perfume, assorted chocolates, three bars of soap, two packs of cigarettes and a tube of toothpaste! "Eto lang???! Tang na mo Sharon, hinde mo man lang naalala pasalubungan mga magulang ko.... blah, blah, blah!" I sensed her ears were bleeding to death! Hehe!

Hanap kami ng restaurant where we could eat and talk... "Leche naman kasi, bakit kasi dito tau sa Centerpoint nagkita, e wala namang mamahalin na restaurant dito, wag mo ko pakainin sa Jollibee!!" Now I sensed nose bleed!

Savory na ata un nakita kong medyo mahal kaya dun na lang! I ordered their most expensive drink and asked for an order of pansit bihon and beef stir fry with brocoli, I even ordered a bottle of water just to make her pocket bleed as well. I wasn't hungry at all, as a matter of fact I just ate a spoon of each of what I ordered.

She said, "Ano ba naman ung friendster mo, hinde ka na nagpapalit ng picture." Hmn, now that answered why I get so much views! Sabi ko, "Aba, marunong ka ng mag-internet?!"

I was the one who did most of the talking on our first hour in the restaurant, pero nung uminit na ang makina nya, ayun na! She is still the same! Same in the sense that she still has the same features, same weight (on second thought, I think heavier), same laugh, same stories about her polygamous relationships! Duh! Whatever!

We came to a point were we talked about what happened in the past especially the time when she left me for an OLDER WOMAN! Imagine me verbalizing a very painful incident while choking back tears. It was hard! I cursed her, tormented her by attacking her conscience (meron ba sya nun?). Finally, I was able to say everything I wanted to say to her!!! She begged me not to be angry at her anymore. I told her I don't hold grudges anymore. Acceptance at last!!! *choir singing halleluyah in the background* Would you believe I even thanked her for messing up soooo badly? I said I wouldn't be this happy with Jen if all those things didn't happen.

Whew, I feel lighter. I admit my anger was eating me inside for the longest time. But now, I can be friends with her, I swear! I even wished her the same happiness I'm sharing with my wife.

Sharon accompanied me to my car. No beso-beso mind you! Ni hinde ko sya isinabay palabas! Nagtext pala sya sa akin, sabi nya "Ngats k." I replied when I got home thanking her for the treat and the pasalubong. Sabi nya "welcome my friend blah blah blah." Haha, pinilit ko pa pala syang ibili ako ng kahit ano! Hinde naman tumanggi! Gusto ko talaga syang gumastos kaya kahit hinde ko kailangan ang Tea Tree Facial Exfoliant at Tea Tree Facial Wash ng The Body Shop, go na lang kasi yun ang nadaanan namin palabas! Hehe!

Baby, thank you for this opportunity. I can't imagine the humongous amount of trust you have for me. So amazing! Tama si Maricel, hinde na kita maipagpapalit kanino man!

Me so techie

Thanks to the new technology, I can talk to my wife in Houston in cheaper ways.

calls and videos clearer than YM

P2.50/min call in the US

This morning, I got another package from her. New technology uli para lalong mura ang tawagan! Hehe!

I have installed the MagicJack in my laptop already. Whew! Success! I was a bit hesitant to have her buy me this kasi nga baka hinde ko mai-install! Tanga-tanga kasi ako sa usaping teknikal! Natry ko na gamitin but I haven't maximized its use yet. Natawagan ko na si Jen using this MagicJack thingy kaso pinatulog ko na ang babaita kasi maaga pa ang gising nya mamaya para magtrabaho.
For all of you who have loved ones in the States, I recommend you have them buy you this or I think you can order this online... hinde ko nga lang alam gano katagal dumating? Magaganda naman ang reviews na nababasa ko sa internet about MagicJack, me negative ones din but the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. Mura pa! Initially, you will pay around $40, kasama na jan ung MagicJack and 1 year subscription fee. And then for the succeeding years, I think you have to pay $29 annually? O diba affordable? Before I had this, the cheapest pantawag that I use is the Globe tipIDD, P2.50/minute. So ung P100 card is 40 minutes. Pwede na din diba? Pero kapag napasarap ang usapan namin ng watot ko, ubos yan agad! hehe! Dati, badtrip din gumamit nyang Globe tipIDD kasi every 6 minutes napuputol pero lately hinde na! Narinig ata ng Globe ang hinaing ko, hekhek!
Ung nga lang, sa mga walang laptop/desktop at DSL connection, hinde pwede ang MagicJack. Shempre, hinde mo pedeng isaksak ito sa CP mo unless me USB port ang CP mo no! I think hinde din pwede kung dial up lang ang internet connection mo, magabal ata at hinde gagana? Pero wag mag-alala ang Globe kasi bibili pa din ako ng tipIDD once in a while kasi pano kung nasa labas ako... hinde ko naman pwedeng dalhin lagi tong laptop!

9AM - Left Gapan, traffic's so bad it was so hard to get to the highway, drove to Rizal, Nueva Ecija.
10AM - Stop over, bathroom break, breakfast at Cabanatuan.
11AM - Was so pissed at those people drying their rice harvest on roads! Bawal kaya yun, haller!Arrived at Rizal, bought rice in market, headed to cemetery to visit Lolo Dado. Miss my grandfather so much! It has been nine years but I still cry whenever I think of him!
11.30AM - Arrived at Lola Minay's house, relatives were anxiously waiting. My nephew Dudot kissed and hugged Tita Ellyn, shempre bati kami kasi me pasalubong akong lobo at sokoleyts e!
12PM - Lunch, wasn't hungry... so thirsty I drank the cold water from the pitcher (damn)!
1PM - Took a 15-minute nap on lola's hammock.
1.30PM - Ate late lunch, drank the 'province' water (damn again) and RC cola! Paksyet!
2PM - Padasal for Lolo Dado, was asked to assist the leader of the padasal... haha! the prayer was in Ilocano, "Naku Auntie, haan ko met ammo sumumbat ti ilocano!" (Auntie, I cannot reply in Ilocano!)
3PM - Merienda, kwentuhan.
3.30PM - Went to relative's house, gave me half a sack of onions... "Bawang Uncle, awan?" (No garlic Uncle?) Hihi! Abusada!
4PM - Drove home to Manila, still pissed at those people drying their rice on roads but this time, they were sacking them already and laid them on the road which made travel slower! dammit!
5.30PM - Arrived at Cabanatuan City.
6.30PM - At Bulacan ( don't know where exactly) super duper traffic! was forced to counter flow by driving on the shoulder, hehe! Mama Josie was continously reminding me to slow down... "Ma, kelan pa tayo dadating sa Manila?" At ano ang cause ng traffic.... SAGALA! paksyet! traffic was sooooo long, baka nga nagcross ng dalawang bayan ng Bulacan yung traffic sa sobrang haba! baka nga tatlo pa, i'm not exaggerating!
7.45PM - Stop over at Baliuag Transit Terminal... Nanay and Mama Josie didn't want to eat anything, but me? I ate two cups of rice, an order of menudo, sopas, siopao and for desert Balut!
8.30PM - Called my adik first before driving again, she was about to go to work already! was so bundat I hardly can breath!

9.30PM - Aleluyah! Was home! So tired! Damn that traffic in Bulacan, we could have arrived earlier!
10PM - Felt something unusual.... perhaps it's just anxiety because my TOEFL iBT will be next week!
10.15PM - Was sitting on the throne.... haha! damn that water.... and RC cola, and the rice, and the menudo, and the sopas, and the siopao, and the balut!
