Tired but Need to go On...

Since last friday, i don't think Ariel and I already had enough rest. We are so tired. Daming kailangang gawin.

Friday
Left the office with my friend Tere. She stayed in our house till 830pm to wait for his bf JB who is still in the office. Sobrang traffic galing office and pagdating sa Palapala, namatayan ako ng makina kasi nataranta ako when Tere said na amoy sunog na clutch. Kala ko ako pero yung car pala in front of us.

Anyway, nung pag-alis nya. nagwork pako till 11pm kasi i have a Project Revew on Tuesday and di pa complete mga data ko. At 4:30am, nagising ako and didn't find any updates from the people in the US kaya mega follow-up ako sa email then sleep again.

Saturday
Woke up at 7:30 to prepare bfast for me and popoy. Did some house cleaning in preparation for Ariel's arrival. Did check my email and was happy to find the updates I am looking for.

We left the house at 10am for a carwash sana but dami cars sa car wash kaya diretso na kami sa school ni popoy to pay sana for his monthly tuition. Unfornately, sarado pala sila pag saturday, nung bakasyon lang pala sila open ng wikends Dumiretso na kami sa NAIA. Wow, sarap mag-drive... Nakapagdrive ako sa Aguinaldo hi-way kahit medyo traffic. May mga nambabasa kasi. Diko alam if fiesta ng San Juan that day.

Nasa NAIA na kami at 11:20am. Sarap ng feeling. nakarating ako sa Maynila as a driver. Hehehe. AM snak kami ni popoy sa Jollibee while waiting. 11:35 pa kasi arrival ni Ariel. 11:45 na ata nakalapag plane nila then pass 12pm na sya nakalabas. Diko na sya sinundo ng car sa arrival area kasi diko alam how to go there from the parking area. Pinaglakad ko na lang sya hanggang parking area. Hehehe. Kainis po iyon. I was looking for him sa letter G kasi GO sya pero sa other side pala sya nagpunta para daw diko sya makita agad. Hmmp BAD.

Na-miss daw nya ko pati si Chinchin kaya sya na nag-drive sa SLEX. We had our lunch in NorthPark. Our bill was almost 720+ but was not happy with the most expensive item we ordered- Fish Fillet with Tausi in HOT pot. Di sya masyado masarap. Mas masarap and mas mura pa sa Kingbee (Chinese Resto near our office).

Anyway, he is sick that time. He has cough and colds. Na-stress and pressured kasi sya sa Taiwan. He was working for more than 15H / day. Sadista boss nya eh. May time na 3am na sya nakauwi tas pumasok pa sya ng 8am. Hay.Kaya ayun, nagkasakit tuloy sya.

Sa house, nilabas nya mga gamit nya then he gave me his pasalubongs- Gray Tshirt- cute sya, ankle support kasi lagi daw masakit paa ko, thigh firmer (unfornately di kasya sakin kasi masyado malaki hita ko...hehehe) and a fitness ball ( been planning to buy one dati pa pero lagi no budget and time).

After that .... then sleep us. kaso mga 4pm ata, tumawag boss nya tas di nako makatulog kaya nag-ayos ako ng gamit sa baba while he's sleeping.

He slept from 4 to 8pm while I am working and at the same time teaching popoy with his Math assignment. Last item na lang sa assignment ni Popoy ang di namin natapos kasi I can't explain how it it being computed.The elapsed time. Hay hirap talaga mag-explain. Di yata talaga ako pwede mag-teacher Hahaha. So Ariel did teach him how to do it while I am doing my project/work. 11pm na din ata us slip that day.

SUNDAY
woke up at 8am to attend a 9-10am mass. we just bought monay then go back home for some bfast. We left our house to Manila at around 11am. Diretso na kami sa Cubao. I drove from our place to Pasay Rotonda then I started feeling some cramps kaya nakipagpalit nako kay Ariel. Sya na drive till Cubao. Ariel gave his pasalubong to his Niece (Andee) - playdoh na pang-denture kasi both dentist parents ni Andee. Then his ate, invited us for lunch. We had our lunch in Max Gateway. Masarap sana food but didn't enjoy much due to my cramps. we finished our lunch at 230pm.

3:30pm nasa Pasig na kami, Ariel gave the UCB HOT perfume for my mom. Mura lang sya sa taiwan. parang less than 1K na lang ata sya. then I invited my sis JEN and Mom for a pedicure sa parlor. I also had my hair trimmed by an inch.

Sinamahan din namin JEN to her new apt. Hay..wala lang.

5:30 na us nakaalis sa Pasig then pa-GAS pa us sa may Kapitolyo (Mura kasi dun). then SLEX na us. Grocery lang us konti sa SM Molino then luto ng dinner then dinner na.Ayos lang us konti ng gamit then slip na us at around 11pm. Hay... at last.

Monday
Naka-OB (Official Business) si Ariel kasi he just arrived last Saturday. I also took a time off para makasama ko naman sya.
I woke up at 5am to prepare bfast and baon of popoy. 6am, dumating na service nya kaya sleep na me ulit.

we woke up at 9:30 am. ate bfast then konti linis house. Ariel also set-up the wireless router he bought from Taiwan. Yipee. pwede nako mag-work, surf, blog, internet wirelessly. Yung Smart Wifi kasi may cable pa rin kaya hassle pa din. Buti na lang nakabili na si Ariel.

11am, tulog ulit si Ariel. Laba naman ako ng mga pants and jacket/blazers ko. 2 days kasi cycle time sa laundry kaya nilabhan ko na din muna.

130pm we left the house to popoy's school and paid for his tuition. We went to BDO to settle some financial matter. Had our lunch in Wendys. Bought medicine for him. Some chocolate for his pasalubong sa mga friendly friends nya sa office. paid our Smart Wifi Bill in SM payment center. Had our very own Chinchin a bath after 3 weeks. Bought chicken and some tinola ingredients sa mini grocery near our place. Cooked dinner. Had some dinner at 6:30pm. Ariel helped popoy with his assignments while I am rehearsing my presentation for Tuesday. We sleep at around 1030pm. Hay... tired na.

Tuesday
woke up at 5am. siempre prepared bfast and baon of popoy. 5:30am bath na us. 6:05am left our house. 6:55 nasa office na us. 8:20 pa presentation ko pero want to be early para medyo relax ako sa presentation. It will be a phonecon presentation but siempre nakakakaba pa rin noh.

Hay..ok na sana but..... di pa ko nakaka-boot ng PC ko when I got a call from a secretary telling me to log into the bridgecode. I told her that it's not yet my schedule. 7am pa lang and I am scheduled at 8:20am. Hmmp. Pero wala ako magawa so I logged. I was informed na na-cancel yung 2 presentations before me kaya na pull-in yung schedule ko. My Gooly.. Buti na lang ready ako. tanungin ba daw kung ready ako. Kainis noh. They asked me kung sino pa kailangan ko for the presentation. I told them of the names. They did call them kasi nasa US din naman yung mga taong yun. Medyo nairita nga Business Unit Manager namin kasi di nga iyon yung schedule namin pero buti na lang free sya that moment in time. So ayun., nagpresent ang lola nyo. Ok naman, everything went smoothly except for one item na di ko napaghandaan. Sabi kasi nung unang boss ko.Dapat daw N.A. yun. Hay.... so I need to present the data they are looking for within the week for me to close the status of my project and move to the next milestone. Grabe ha... Sobrang pagod ko na ha?!

Just right after my presentation... got the bad news from Ariel. His Lola passed away. She is Ariel's grandmother from father side. Nagpaalam kami sa mga boss namin na halfday lang muna us. Need to go to Mayon Q.C. Ariel was one of his Inang's favorite apo kaya malungkot din sya. However, di na sya umiyak kasi dinalaw namin si Inang last December and we saw her and think na di na talaga sya tatagal. She is so weak and old na rin kasi.

Kaya...paspasan na ang trabaho para di matambakan the next working day. 12nn alis na kami sa office. Drive thru lang sa Mcdo then delivered clothes sa Laundry Shop then diretso na kami sa QC. Pero dumaan pa kami sa SM Centerpoint kasi we need to buy some pastries.

3pm nasa Mayon na kami. Wala pa kasi sa funeral chapel si Inang kaya sa house muna ng tito nya us nag-stay. 4pm na us pumunta sa Nacional Funeral Chapel. We stayed there until 1130pm and able to meet some of his relatives. Pure Chinese si Inang and some of their relatives informed them that the flowers should all be white for the 1st year. Eh may pink na flowers yung binili ng ate nya kaya nasayang lang. pinatapon lang yung iba. Madami pa daw customs mga Chinese but they don't know if they would like to follow all of them.

Anyway... kahit 12mn na kami nakarating sa may place namin, we still drop by 7/11. Kasi "Pamahiin" daw is wag didiretso sa Bahay from Lamay. We just bought SPUDs then uwi na then sleep na din. Pagod na talaga us.

WEDNESDAY
woke up at 5am to wake my dad and ask him to prepare Popoy's baon. I asked my dad to stay in our house yesterday so somebody can look after popoy. I woke up at 6am. Paalis na si popoy then paalis na din si dadi...

hay...until today.... we are still so tired.... then sa friday punta pa us Herona Tarlac for the Libing of Inang. From Cavite, we will go to Nacional then Tarlac. They plan to leave Nacional at 5am so we have to leave our house at 430am... hay...it would really be a day.... siguro sa saturday pa us talaga makakapahinga ...sana nga....
