A Day In.........

Hi! Christmas has come and gone.. My vacation just kind of went by and I just
ended up with this sniffle that I know will end up in a major case of the colds soon.

So, it's back to work for me.Two days ago, our family just had this sort of reunion on my aunt's place at Quezon City. My nieces and nephews were there. Some of my cousins were there as well. Nothing much... Although, I kinda miss the larger gatherings we used to have. Almost of my cousins are abroad now.Nevertheless, we did have fun....I kinda enjoyed being the Auntie to my nieces and nephews, and finally I did get to see one Rocky movie (Rocky 4!) starring a then younger and muscular Sylvester Stallone, get to join my cousins for some social drinking and swapping stories about some Kuya Bong and Kuya Roy's antics (promise, they are a bunch of pranksters) and got to drink Brandy with Sprite (concocted by Kuya Bong)! It was such a comfy family moment that they then decided to spend this coming New Year as well there. Whoopee, more time, drink to sawa!

Today: I just went to my friend, Marnelli's house to meet up
with Maureen. They are actually two of my best highschool buds, and we haven't seen
each other for several months. It's sad to know that Nelli still hasn't found a new job yet. But that's ok because they seem doing good, contrary to what Mau told me a few weeks back.Mau is still Mau...worrying about how she can go home without her mom noticing the proof of her spending spree. I really wish we could go out sometime, like maybe watch a movie or something...it would be a nice change aside from just staying at Nelli's house. To tell you the truth, I have the tendency to be sleepy when things get cozy, and just sitting at a couch, watching tv is no exception. Well, i just have to plan for a get together one of these days.

Right now, everyone is looking forward to the new year.But it really sucks because if you are watching the news, a part of Asia right now is in turmoil because of the earthquake that hit Thailand that caused a major tsunami that devastated 3 other countires, India, Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand, and even a part East Africa! As of this date, it left 15,000 people dead...and counting... Seems like 2004 has its last minute surprises for us..I really pity those poor people.. Mother Nature seems like taking its vengence..and boy its sure is a terrible revenge..

All I can do right now of course is to pray for those victims and to hope that there will be no more tragedies for this year....
