Anniversary Gift =)

Happy Friday Friendships!!!

I am just happy and I want to document this here in my blog. Whenever I feel down it really helps to go back from my previous post and happy moments, pati date pag may nakalimutan ako binabalikan ko lang itong blog ko, even my recipe pag medyo matagal ko nang hindi naluluto dito pa din ako nagrerefer, I don't take notes kasi except our budget and other reminders events etc. 

And for our 13th years together my husband gifted me a bag. On our first day in Berlin I was looking for a sling bag kasi alam ko yun lang ang budget ko for this trip, I don't have a small purse kasi that will fit a small wallet, cellphone, powder and lipstick whenever we attend a simple gathering, palagi ako nakikilagay sa bulsa ng husband ko saka pala yung Longchamp na Le Pliage kasi afford ko yun at kailangan ko din kasi mahilig talaga ako magdala ng madaming gamit, but I didn't find the sling bag pero nakabili ako nung Le Pliage na super like ko kasi pink sya. On our second day binaybay namin yung other end ng Kurfurstendamm tapos we saw na mga high end brands nag enjoy ako magpapicture. 

and my long time wish, at first ayaw ko pero sa huli nagpapilit na din ako kay Mark hahaha!!!

My Alma in Epi

I Lvoe it! the color the size it is really beautiful!!! 

Thank you so much Hon!!! 13 years is not a joke, there were times when we wanted to give up on each other and a lot of times when we fought and won many battles of life together. Cheers to us. I pray that God will continue to bless us with more years and happiness together.

Meet Buday =)

One of the blessings that we received lately is Buday, our very first car.

Please meet Buday =)

She is such a pretty, she may not be the latest model and the prettiest car but each part of her now is all about hardwork and another fulfilled dream... kaya patuloy ang pangarap sabi nga ni Angeline Quinto =)
I was bugging Mark to buy a car kasi ang mura ng sasakyan dito ang mahal e ang pag aapply ng license, I am a "pusher" talaga e sa aming dalawa, I know kasi na palaging sa last ng list yung pagkuha ng license kaya naisip ko na bumili na para magkainspirasyon si husband na kumuha ng license although it will take some time here pero atleast meron na sya magagamit para magpractice ng practical driving dun kasi madaming bumabagsak ata. We were arguing na about this kasi pinupush ko talaga sya, aba ang hirap kasi pag winter dito, tapos kelan pa sya makakaisip kumuha driving license until pinabayaan ko na sya, pero from time to time nakikita ko sya nagtitingin ng second hand na sasakyan until a day before our anniversary my husband saw Buday and he knew from there na she's the one na, the next day he paid for her and introduced to me as his anniversary present (arte lang pero super timing lang sa anniv namin hehehe).

Buday and Giday

Why Buday pala? her name was from our surname Bunyi and my pet name Giday kaya Buday hehehe.

My Crushes =)

Hello friendships,,,,, it's been more than a week again since I've posted here,,, I've been sleeping a lot lately, and when I woke up it's bath time then I will work in the kitchen for our dinner. I've been less productive in the past week that's why I am pushing myself to be productive and to stay awake *yawning*

It is getting colder here each day, autumn is here already, the leaves are slowly changing its color to reddish and some are falling down from the trees. I am bracing myself to a much colder weather, good luck to me. =)

I've been thinking of these things lately, I have crush on them, I adore them hahaha,,, let me share you these beautiful things on my mind...

1. Daniel Wellington Classic Canterbury Lady

photo source here

Isn't she lovely?! I've been wanting this for a long time, the watch that I am using suddenly went out of battery a month ago, but since I am not really a watch person and I am stayed at home wife i don't practically need a watch,,,,,but still nice to have one hahaha....

2. Burberry Short Slim Fit Patent Trim Trench Coat

Since it's cold here I am lusting on a nice trench coat, unlike the DW watch above, this crush of mine will remain as pangarap na lang,,, Pangarap ka na lang ba o magiging katotohanan pa... hahahha napakanta na,,, suntok sa buwan kumbaga, maghanap na lang ako ng red na trench coat din na affordable hehehe, but this one really deserves a highlight on my blog to constantly reminds me na di lahat ng maganda ay nababagay sa kagandahan ko hahaha,,,,

3. Repetto Horse-riding Boot Telemaque

I really need a knee high boots na simple, chic and comfy that can wear in any outfits, consideration ko nga lang ang budget talaga kaya I will look for an alternative for this plus walang repetto dito sa stavanger pwede online kaso ang mahal lang talaga nya para sa boots hehehe,,,

Sa bag,, hay,,, pikit na lang ako,, hahaha,,, kalimutan kalimutan kalimutan hahahah!!!! =)

Amazing Grace Piano

Hello friendships!!!

Have a blessed Sunday. 

Wala akong alam sa pagpapatunog ng kahit anong musical instruments ang alam ko lang gamitin e ang aking very own vocal cords chos hehehe. Kaya dati hangang hanga ako sa mga lyre band ang gagaling nila, hindi ko din type ang gitara kasi masakit sa daliri tapos di ba ang hirap pa pag magpapalit na ng chords hehehe, pero gustong gusto ko ang piano kaso sa kahirapan ng buhay kahit organ wala kami laruan lang ang meron ako nun tuwang tuwa na ako magpipindot parang yung sa video ko lang hehehe pero carry lang meron naman akong napakagandang boses hahaha chos lang ulit! 

Dahil sa frustrated nga akong magkapiano naghanap na lang ako ng free application sa Ipad hehehe hanggang dun na lang ang pangarap ko pero kung papalarin kahit di ako marunong tumugtog ng piano gusto ko pa din magkaganun sa bahay sana someday matupad un wala lang ang sarap lang mangarap. 

Eto na ang video hehehe favorite ko din kasi na kanta yan palaging tagos sa puso pagnaririnig ko yan, ininclude ko yung sarili ko sa huli hehehe buti nga napigil ko ang sarili ko di ako nag message hahaha hilig ko lang talagang umepal kaya ayun kumaway na lang ako hiya pa ako ngayon e pagnagkalakas ako ng loob mag video blog na din ako hahaha,,, 

It is never too late to fulfill our dreams kahit yung mga simple nating pangarap wag nating ineglect. push lang natin yan. 

God bless us!!! :)

More Updates *Tadah*

Hello friendships!!!! Musta na kau?
Namiss nyo ba ako?

I am super happy now, I am adjusting pretty well in my new environment, weather, and being a housewife.
Updates muna,,

May 4 when we had a short visit in the Philippines, as in we are not yet done sa mga linisin namin, we were trying to book online the night before pero palaging nag eerror,, so the next day, around 1pm I called the hotline na of Tiger Airways where we found the cheapest airfare to Philippines, we're done the booking ng around 1:30pm na and our flight is 5:50pm and that time di pa kami nakapag pack ng things namin. The next day we spent our time with Mark's family, and we visited our condo din, and we resched the turn over the next day. Sobrang happy kami with DMCI kasi yung finishing ay di tinipid, maayos ang turnover sa amin,, and they gave us pa this welcome home kit

After the turnover we went to my province naman to spend time with my family,,, We had a small salo salo parang thanksgiving for my brother's graduation and despedida na din for us, Mark is our chef that day,, ang cucute ng mga pamangkin ko sa mga pinsan ko,, Ang sarap lang kumain ng luto ng Inay ko the best,,,I super love my family,, =)

May 10, we flew to Singapore na,, I'm just sad that we were not able to meet our friends,, sayang talaga...

May 11 ayan na heheh,, linis linis din,, that week na yung pin aka pagod, haggard ako,, we had lang a last minute shopping, meet our friends that night din,

May 12 flight na namin ng 10:55pm, and promise di pa kami nakaempake and di pa kami tapos maglinis ng room,, around 2pm we were done na, then we went to our friends house because she prepared a farewell lunch/merienda for us,,

Sa mga friends namin who sends their gifts, prayers, and well wishes,, thank you so much di ko na kayo maiisa isa,,, cyberhugs to all of you!!!

I am very emotional that day as in nagmumukmok ako habang naglilinis si mark,, ito ang non negotiable na di pwedeng iwan,,

Iniyakan ko to ha,, I thought di namin sila madadala kasi ano ba naman plato lang yan baka mabasag
lang,, Pero ito ang aming first plates sa singapore, mula sa wala kaming maiulam at masarap ang ulam sila ang kasama namin,, at di sya nabasag hehehe,, buong buo namin silang nadala dito,, =)

Sa lahat lahat ng stuffed toys ko wala akong nadala kundi silang dalawa lang,, lahat pinadala na namin sa pinas,, moymoy and giday =)

Check-in time (pugto na ang mata)

And I did not miss the chance to buy my souvenir in Singapore *starbucks tumbler

We flew via British Airways, I can say that mas masarap ang food nila compared with Lufthansa,,, 

We had a 3 hour stopover in London =)

I love my blazer here, I bought it in Forever21, I matched it with a striped green long sleeves also from Forever21,

 After we reached home, naglakad lakad na kami ni hubby to find a  place to eat,, then I found these paintings,,, perfect for our tiny home,,

My first visit in IKEA here,, I can't wait to show you the cabinet we bought,, I will make a separate post for that,,, =)

Finally nakapag update na din ako,, time for candy crush naman,,, =)))

SIENA PARK =)

I am now looking for a possible design for our soon to be home. A small home that we can call our own. Two years back I was convinced of getting our own place, I told hubby about it and he was very supportive on my idea. How do I convinced him?

1. I want to have our own nesting place when we visit Philippines. Everytime kasi we go home, it's either makikituloy kami sa in laws ko  or dididretso kami ng Quezon which is 3 hours travel from airport. And since wala kaming house sa manila, I can't invite my parents to see if ever short vacation lang kami and can't go to province na. I've experience to go to Philippines with a 4 days vacation at puro byahe lang ako, manila-quezon-manila, may side trip pa ng lipa hehehe,, can you imagine how tiring it was. Saka we can have our friends to visit us kwentuhan to d max.

2. It's our INVESTMENT. When we were stil bf-gf, may nag open na subdivision just in front of my grandparents' house sa lipa, do you know how my husband won my Mamay's (my grandfather) heart, with a very small salary he invested a 90 sq.m. lot, it is his way of securing my grandfather that we will build our home near them, that he will not take me away from them, although it didn't happen we still have that lot as our investment. Sabi ko nga kay hubby, hindi din namin napansin na tapos na naming hulugan yung lote na yun. Mahirap magtrabaho and we have to secure that we are investing our hard earned money sa maganda.

3. As years gone by, may mga gamit na kami together, and sometimes ang hirap nilang ipunin just because we dont have space for them, and we also want to buy things na hindi namin magawa.

And a lot more... in short this is not just a WANT, this is what we NEED.

Yesterday, my friend Abie, who is also looking for their future home sent me photos of Siena Park model unit, knowing that we got a unit there kaya yun din ang no. 1 option nya. He asked his father to have a visit to check how accessible it is and how it looks like.

I've never been there kasi, when we talked with our agent e groundbreaking pa lang at a nun, tapos yung mga uwi naman namin ay palaging mabilisan lang, another consideration ay wala kaming sasakyan, naku sobrang hirap for me na nasanay dito sa singapore na MRT lang ang katapat ng lahat, Nung last uwi ko e dressing up pa ng unit kaya di pa naturnover sa akin, this month e ready na sya, kaso ako naman yung di pwedeng umuwi pa.

These are the Model Unit photos, our home will be a lot different with it but the layout is the same kaya I am studying every corner of it to find a design that suits our personality.

Such a calming sight! =)

 The receiving area

The Kitchen, where thousands and thousands of adobo will be cooked. =)

The Dining area, 

 Master Bedroom, I like the headboard but I want it in red sana.

The Second Bedroom, for our future kids. =) Sana dumating na kayo, you have your own room na. =)

The Bathroom. I think we need a lot of work to with the bathroom. =)

Naii stress ako thinking of the things I want for our home, sana manalo ako sa lotto hehehe,, =)

Pangarap kong sumakay ng eroplano

Magandang umaga... yap Im still wide awake now at 1:14am...di makatulog kasi gising din ang kachat ko...hehehe... malamang kasi 6:15pm pa lang ng hapon dun...ganito lang kami basta feel namin ang presensya ng isa't isa,,,solve na... busy sya eh may baong trabaho sa bahay...sipag... kung andyan ako gagawan kita ng snacks...may masahe...at kiss : -* pa...

Im counting days again, finally masisilayan ko na ulit ang Pilipinas kong mahal, at makakasakay na ulit sa eroplano....

Di lingid sa inyo na hindi kami mayaman...na nung bata ako ang telepono, eroplano, corned beef na imported ay pang mayaman,,, hehehe,, ewan ko kasi nung nagkatelepono kami sa bahay tuwang tuwa ako, e kaya lang naman kami nagkatelepono nun sa bayan namin ay nagpromo ang GTS, basta sobrang mura nya na kahit sino pwedeng magpakabit ng linya ng telepono hindi katulad nung unang una na ilan lang, parang ngayon na lahat ay may cellphone na. 

Yung corned beef na imported masaya din ako pag nabibigyan kami dati, yung asawa kasi ng tyahin ko ay nag aabroad kaya pag may dala binibigyan din kami, tapos yung bestfriend ko naman na si Carmina basta may package yung lola nya ipinagtatabi nya ako nun, kaya hanggang ngayon favorite ko yun palagi ko binibili yung Libby's.

 At yung pagsakay naman ng eroplano pangarap ko din yan dati, kasi nanunang mag kinder yung mga pinsan ko sa akin tapos nag field trip sila di ko alam kung saan basta nakita ko yung picture nila sa eroplano tapos nung time ko na iba na yung pinuntahan kaya frustation ko yun dati, tapos pag may dumadaang eroplano talagang tinitingnan ko, kaya kahit ngayon everytime na sasakay ako sa eroplano ibang excitement pa din yung nararamdaman ko. Alam nyo ba na yung unang sakay ko ng eroplano ay papuntang Bacolod, dinalaw ko din si Mark dati, at yung unang international flight ko e nung papunta dito sa Singapore, Singapore Airlines yung sinakyan ko, libre lang yun ng unang company ko dito, dahil sa takot ako o ilang tinanggihan ko yung meal sa eroplano wahehehe, takot ata ako baka may bayad hihihi basta yun bloopers un, natatawa ako ngayon sa sarili ko siguro yung katabi ko pinagtatawanan ako o yung stewardes hehehe buti na lang mahigit 3 oras lang ang byahe, basta feeling ko nun katulad ng first time ko din kumain sa hotel  dahil may inattendan akong kasal ganun na ganun. 

7 days to go...HaPINAS na!!!

Dreams do come true, kaya keep on dreaming. Nothing is impossible with God, keep on believing and praying. God bless us all!!! =)
