^ june 24, gigisingin ako dapat ni lolo e. ang usapan ay 530 ... well, he did try to wake me up but i was so out of it and my cellphone was a little far from me ... nagcha-charge kasi ... pero tama na ang dahilan ... nde ko narinig ang tawag nya - period ... fortunately, for some unknown rison, nagising ako ng parang gising na gising ako around 550 ... first agenda was to haul my luggage downstairs ... our building doesn't have an elevator ... we live on the 5th floor ... the steps in our stairwell are uneven .... good thing my luggage wasn't that heavy ... it took me less than 5 minutes to accomplish the deed ... prepare prepare ... prepare prepare ... few minutes before 7am, i woke up tonie to tell her i'm leaving ... went down and saw mr. wang - my sundo - waiting for me ... sakto!
^ ngumanga nga ako all the way to the airport ... kelangan pa akong gisingin ni mr. wang ..
^ the queue was a little long ... good thing i have a book with me (odd thomas) ... yung ikalawang tao sa harap ko, isang ale ... she asked me - "ni qu manila ma?" (you're going to manila?) ... sagot ako, "dui" (yes/correct) ... and then she just said, group check in? ... i said, really? she said, yes, yes .... asking for my ticket and all that shit .... i was too dazed to ask - "why? do i have to? do i really, really have to?" .. and then i noticed their bagssss .... i asked the woman - "your bags are too heavy, right?" ... she said, it's ok ... i thought, yeah right ... it was a good thing that the lady was smart enought to get me a separate luggage claim stub ... kundi, i had to wait for them sa pagkuha ng gamit ko ... i wish they just told me that they need me to cover for their extra luggage ... i felt used ... *haha*
^ since manang with the bagssss did my check-in, i have no idea if i got an aisle seat ... i told her that i wanted an aisle seat but i'm not sure if she understood ... the plane was big ... buti na lang ... seating arrangement was 2-4-2 ... i was seated sa middle ng 4s ...
^ since i've been dealing with mvp, shortness of breathing is not new ... but it scares me to think that i might experience it sa plane .... the take off part was too long ... we had to taxi on the runway for quite some time and it was making me agitated ... iniisip ko na ngang uminom nung gamot na binigay sa akin to make me relax pero i decided to control it ... i don't want to be dependent ... i survived ...
^ during the flight ... on my left was a pinay worker who broke her contract ... working for a family as a helper ... she decided to go home because she's been feeling sick ... she's a frail-looking lady and she recounted na everytime na magpapalit ng cover ng bed, gusto ng amo nyang babae na baliktarin nya ang mega-laking kutson ... to my right is a mother who worked for an "ama" (old grandpa? grandma? i forgot ...) ... and to the right of the person on my right is another caregiver, i think .... they were sharing their sad stories ... and they were close to tears ... their employers weren't physically abusive ... but verbally, yes ... they had to deal with some rude "brokers" as well .... tas i also found out na to hire caregivers, the doctors have to sign the papers of an old man/woman bago sha makakakuha ng caregivers outside taiwan ... kung kaya pa daw ng matanda, nde usually pinipirmahan ang request nila ... while i was talking to these other pinays ... naisip ko, maswerte pa ako ... i bitch about my work time and again ... complaining that i'm doing things that i don't really want to do ... but hey, i am paid well and i am treated well ... i even get a lot of perks ... so what's there to bitch about, right? from that moment on, i've decided to stop bitching ...
^ so i survived the flight without any mishaps ... immigration and luggage claim was a breeze ... jerry was waiting for me while jeni beybi and grace are going around the airport while waiting for me to arrive ...
^ first stop, visit ate sa ospital ... she was on duty at that time ... went to max's for lunch at around 4pm ... pambihira, halos lahat ng makita ko sa menu ay masarap! what's up with that, right? winner nga pala ang bottomless na sago't gulaman ng max's ... punta kami sa san pedro para makita ko sila raprap at riane ... tulog ang mga bata pero being the salbahe tita that i am, ginising ko ... bad trip sila ... lalo na si riane ... ayaw sumama sa akin ... pero nung paalis na kami, nagbabay na ang bata at tumango nung sinabi ko na sasama na sha sa akin bukas ...
^ off to tagaytay ... to sonya's garden (http://www.viloria.com/viloria/angel/food-20010116-sonyasgarden.html) .. the place was fabulous ... it was a little hard to find ... liblib ang feeling (muntik na kaming mag-decide na bumalik dahil sa kalibliban nya) pero the trip was worth it ... too bad we weren't able to sample their dishes ... pano, closing time was 800 and we got there at around 810? 815 ... we ended up eating at breakfast (they "serve lunch and dinner, too" :P,http://www.eat.ph/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=66&Itemid=57 ) ... their servings were big! ... i ordered stir-fried vegetables on top of crispy potato chips ... and jeni ordered boneless bangus .. ang dai! ... it was ok ... masarap-sarap naman ... pedeng balikan ... their restroom felt like it was out of a horror movie ... pang-bates motel ba ... sleeping time ... sleeping time .. we stayed at estancia (http://www.travelmart.net/philippinestagaytaycity/estanciaresorthotel/) ... we got the nipa huts at 3300 Php, i think... not bad, really ... walang ercon pero malamig naman e ... at ang winner, ang tanawin pag lumabas ka sa veranda ... taal lake ba yun? too bad i didn't bring my camera ... oh well, babalik na lang ako dun .... maaga kaming nagising ... tas breakfast kami sa bag of beans (http://www.clickthecity.com/cityzones/?p=436) ... ang dai pa din ng servings! ... i ordered cheese waffles and jeni ordered buttermilk pancakes ... sayang ang fud ... di namin naubos ... what i like about bag of beans is yung ambiance ... ang cozy kasi nung place .. i'm so-so about what jan and i ordered, though ..
^ uwi na kami ... pero dinaanan muna namin sila ate sa san pedro ... mejo nakakalaro ko na si raprap at riane ... yey! ... after nyan, hatid lang namin ni jeni si grace tas take out sa kfc *madaing madaing gravy!* at punta na ng kalookan ... ate alma is still limping a little because of her operation pero she's fine ... at shempre pa, na-kiss ko na din si roi at ann taba! nde ko alam kung feeling ni ann e ako si ate pero nakukuha ko sha agad e ... nakakarga ko .... although nagpapababa din agad at tumatakbo sa mami nya ... pero pede na ding jammin ...
^ anu pa ba? anu pa ba? umuwi lang kami ni jeni sa kanila nung gabi ng sundi ...
^ morning was work ... afternoon was a little work and running errands ... sa gabi, ini-meet namin ni jeni si ate at chai sa nu skin ... shempre, napagastos ako but it was ok ... tas nag-scan ako sa peys ... may isang wrinkle, madaing uneveness ... nakalimutan ko na yung iba ... tas bio photonic scan ... to tell you daw just how healthy or unhealthy you are ... i was at 21, jeni was at 22, ate was at 21 and chai was at 16 .... bumili ako ng lifepak nila ... tignan natin kung aangat ang rating ko ... wag ko kayang inumin ... pero sabihin ko sa kanila na iniinom ko ... tas tignan natin ang reaction nila pag nde ako nag-improve? hmmmm ....
^ gagawa ako ng "flyers" for ate ... para makakuha sha ng downline .... o ikaw na nagbabasa nito ngayon, interesado ka ba? 15 tawsan pesosesosesoses onli! hehehehe
^ after the nu skin experience, the 4 of us ate sa old spaghetti house ... masarap ang fud nila ha! at nde mahal ... tas kung anu-ano lang ang napag-usapan namin ... masaya ... very relaxed ang mood .... tulad ng sinabi ko sa isang blog entry ko ... delicious food, great company ... what more can a girl like me ask for?
^ at umuwi na kami ni jeni sa bahay nila ...
^ i'm beginning to be a little sad ... malapit na naman akong umuwi sa taipei ...
