Last Friday was our second month, August 5, 2005 and we celebrated it by buying the brazilian slippers and eating at California Pizza Kitchen. Now, while eating, I thought of making a separate blog for all our restaurant experiences. I just saw a blogsite where a cooking lawyer, posts all her cooking experiences and new recipe, It has several hits per month, and it looks like a recipe blog.
I so so, love my havaianas, it is pink, I am really looking for a pink havaianas.
Irwin's havaianas were black, some guy were eyeing the black pair that Irwin was holding, so hindi na niya binitawan.
My pink havaianas however were given to my by a girl, who bought several pairs, maybe 3 of them, buti na lang hindi na niya kinuha yun pink, she gave it to me,
when I tried it on, I had to agree, gosh, ang sakto sobra sa akin.
Siyempre, feeling tall ako sa havaianas ko, as in noh, suot ko siya sa bahay, and I make it sure na malinis ang talampakan ko bago ko siya isuot.
Tapos last night, I was washing the dishes in my havaianas, ang tangkad ko, siguro mga 2 inches additional. Hehehe. It is fun to wash the dishes in havaianas.
Weeks have passed and we are almost 6 weeks married. My blog on Buhay may Asawa are more updated pero magulo pa, andun ang lahat ng kuwento ko. As in, adjust to the max ang buhay may asawa. Bahay bahayan ganun pala yun. Masaya, malungkot kasi namatay ang lola ni Irwin. Mabait pa naman yun.
I am seated beside two young girls, the other I think is seventeen and the other is nineteen both college students, whew! suddenly I feel old, halata pag sila ang kasama ko! Bwahahahaha!
There is this one girl, sa Episode na Model, she is from UA&P, richy girl, astigin at bratilla! Pareho sila ng katabi niyang student din from Letran. Haay, maybe I am just reacting kasi mga bata, I cannot relate, epekto siguro ito ng pag-aasawa.
Gosh, maya't maya nagpapa retouch ng makeup, as if it would make a difference! Nye, ako kasi accepted ko na hindi talaga ako photogenic, konting tao lang ang nakakakita ng tunay kong kagandahan! Naks! Sa personal na lang. =)
I am sporting a new hair, short! Similar to what I had a year ago.
Since mainit naman at tapos na ang wedding, why not have a new look?
Just got back from the shooting of Perfect Moments Episode 15, "The Reunion". I didn't informed my boss that I will be on leave today.
I was looking forward to this day, a day of makeup, retouches and rubbing elbows with the celebrities.
They volunteered to coordinate my wedding. At first I was hesitant kasi I want them to enjoy our wedding. I said I will hire a coordinator para hindi na sila mahirapan.
But they insisted that they do it. So sila na nga. I wanted my wedding to be simple lang, no fuss, hindi magarbo, hindi OA.
This wedding was prepared, 1 year advance but the actual preparation started when we booked our suppliers which was last December lang. but before that we've been through a lot of venue, bridal fairs, lahat ng bridal fair present kami, we have no difficulty naman kasi Irwin has a transpo. Alam namin kung ano ang gusto namin, cost effective na wedding. We would like to emulate a hotel wedding na hindi expensive.
Okey back to them, so it was like an OTD coordination, as early as two months or a month before the wedding, we were just discussing through mails or over phones kung ano ang mga gagawin, I had it all prepared for them para hindi na mahirap pero came weeks before the wedding when nobody responded to our RSVP, our problem began.
I would send everything through mails, tapos nag uusap kami ni Ish. Siya ang main point person. Actual meeting was Friday, because I called her and dapat magkausap sila ng taga Perfect Moment because they are covering our wedding.
Saturday, they went to the hotel and duscussed everything, lahat ng kulang, lahat inayos na.
It was hassle free for me, I had some mild tension because of the delay sa videographer and sa makeup artist pero everything was handled naman, Ako lang ang praning.
So how would I rate a coordinator friend, I'd say, it was like having a real/paid coordinator, maybe more, kasi they know you, they care for you, alam nila kung paano mapapaganda ang wedding nang hindi ka na maiistorbo. My wedding was like a fiesta, ang daming tao, ang saya, they were only like 3 or four of them plus my sisters and brothers, pero they were able to handle the situation. Bilib ang family ko sa kanila, even the guest, alam nila kung ano ang hirap at sacrifice na binigay nila sa wedding namin.
Considering I attended a wedding last June 19 with a coordinator, OUT of the BOX, sila Christine Daria plus her husband and 3 more staff, litaw sila kasi they were wearing pink tops, they handled the registration, and sa church, ay sus, ganun lang pala ka simple ang pag co coordinate sa wedding, kasi they have less guest, yung sa labas ng church kami pa ang natanong kung sila ang coordinator kasi hindi siya lumalapit to ask kung sino ang mag shower ng flowers. Then they asked for the signtures of the guest, then they collected the table number per table, simple lang pala. Kayang kaya.
Well, coordinators are there to make your wedding easy and hassle free, as for me, I enjoyed my wedding and so is everyone else.
Waaaa! Naiiyak ako, ang ganda ng mga kanta nila, as in the church ceremony was so solemn, everybody agreed, it was a great wedding. Church pa lang yan ha. Yabang ko.
You know they were so effective, that when they sang Panunumpa, sakto na pagpasok ko, kanta sila ng "Ikaw lamang ang pangakong mahalin..." it was so dramatic, well sabi nila. =) Umiyak si Irwin, Inipon ko lahat ng willpower ko to never cry, ewan ko kung paano ko ginawa, it was like a dream, na parang nag float lang ako. I never looked at anybody while marching, baka ako maiyak, ang bilis ko nga daw maglakad baka kasi if I see a familiar face, na umiiyak ako rin umiyak.
So I tried to walk fast, (shet sana mabagal lang) looked in front, naiwan ko nga yata ang mama at papa ko eh. Well, I also fear na baka madapa ako sa slip on sandals ko. =) nakalimutan ko nga silang i-kiss, shiyet, wala ngang kiss. Pero nagmano ako sa mommy at tatay ni Irwin, kasi nagmano siya kila mama and papa. Haay, if only I could do it all again...
Okey back to Madrigal Singers, one of their members at siyempre kapitbahay ko na naman, (Para bang gusto mo na ring tumira sa UGONG, Pasig) is kababata namin. Same community, church, kalye etc. Ninang ko ang tita niya.
Friends nila Mama ang relatives nila, kung baga parang kapitbahay talaga!
We were checking kung strings ba or choir. Siyempre, punta na naman kami sa lahat ng bridal fair, hanap ng magandang kakanta for the church, kung strings, church and reception nasa 10K. Okey na rin, then we asked the choir of Nuestra Senora, nasa 5K yata, may coordinator na. hmm, if I pay 5K for the choir of NSDG, why not ask Perlita of Madz kung magkano sila.
So I went to their, house, inquired and finally may price na, she was willing to give it to me at half the price, 6 singers lang, bawal pa nga yun eh, kung di lang niya close yung Manager nila, pero bawal nga talaga yun eh, pero nakuha pa rin namin.
Sayang lang she wasn't there.
I decided that it was Madrigal or nothing, I do not want anybody to sing in our wedding except them, buti na lang I can afford them. Buti na lang friend ko si Perl.
Buti na lang. Ang saya saya ko!
I even bought their two albums eh para pumili ng songs nila, Haay! Ang galing wala akong masabi.
I give them a 10 + 10.
