CyJen - Odds and Ends

Hi guys! I know it’s been awhile since we were able to post an entry.  Cyril and I were busy these past few weeks. We weren’t able to update our blog and to our readers, we apologize.  Today I will give you updates on what’s been happening with us these past weeks.

Cyril’s uncle passed away last August 02, 2008, his interment was August 06, 2008.  Upon hearing the sad news that he passed away, we hurriedly went home to Bulacan to pay our respect to the late Tito Cesar.  We were all very saddened about what had happened but maybe it was the plan of God.  As for my personal experience, four years ago, my father died after a long battle with Lung Cancer.  At first, it was so hard for us to accept things.  We were all burdened but eventually we recovered from our griefs and resumed our normal lives.  I know our life here on earth is only temporary and God is the only one who knows when it is our time to go.

It seems that I’m kinda late in posting about the Eraserheads Reunion Concert.  An event that will be sponsored by Marlboro Philippines.  There are already a lot of blog posts about the said concert, bloggers asking where they would be able to get tickets, since it was confirmed by Ely Buendia in an interview by GMA 7 that the concert will be free.  As some of the blog posts, it is said that you have to be part of "The Red List " of Marlboro to receive updates and "maybe" the ticket itself.

Memoirs 004

Last Sunday, July 19, Cyril and I thought of watching The Dark Knight .  At first I was hesitant because Cyril was sick for four days and I want him to rest.  He said he was already okay and would also want to see the movie.  So we went to SM Clark and had our lunch at Shakey’s first while waiting for 1:15 PM (The Dark Knight’s next show time on Cinema 1), since we came there at around 11:30AM.  I sent an SMS to my brother and informed him about the next show time.

Who wouldn’t want to have a surprise thrown for anyone celebrating their birthday!  Jen, never did cease to amaze me in conjuring surprises.  Though last year’s was a little "unsurprising".  Hehehehe!

This time, it caught me off guard and did not expect the surprise that they had planned.

Jen contacted my relatives in Bulacan and told them that she was planning a surprise birthday party.  She also told barkada from Tantra whom I haven’t been able to see for quite some time.  I did have a hunch that Jen’s up to something but it never occured to me that it would be that big.  My only plan was to go home on my birthday and drink ’til you drop, which of course happened.  The surprise that came with though was really unexpected.

Memoirs 002

High school life is one of the happiest days of being a student. I bet many of you will agree with me. Compare to Elementary life and College life, High school life is the best.

I have many fond memories during my high school life. I can say that for the four years I spent in high school I had many wonderful experiences. I also met my best friends here - Mylyn and Hazel. They are the best girl friends ever. I love them both. Of course, I won’t forget these wonderful people: Ruby, Ethel, Jugs, Jean, Lou, Lejan and Aaron. Most of them have their own families already, some of them are my kumares and kumpadres , but we still manage to keep in touch every now and then but with Lejan I haven’t seen him since we graduated. Last news I’ve heard is that he is already in the United States. I miss this guy a lot especially his jokes.
