A Celebration with Butterflies & Flowers!


Spent our 5th Year Anniversary at Grand Villa Resort at Laguna. Thanks to Ms Rhea for giving us complimentary. It was a weekend of relaxation, being close to nature once again, with the butterflies, flowers, and some wild animals (hehe), and of course, with each other. Hmmmm, I am still in love with this guy each day, and every day, love deepens. There is a certain kind of feeling when you know someone so much. We have struggled through a lot already, and I know that we can get through anything together. Celebrating our 5 years together felt like entering a new phase, renewing an unwritten contract of love. :-)

One Month @ the New House

Its been more than a month - living at the new house, and I feel sleepy a lot of times. We need to wake up at 5 in the morning during work days, leave the house quarter to 6, without breakfast (which is fine with me, but sometimes Willy manages to cook his food while I still sleep in bed). With the RC service, I usually arrive at the office before 8am, then in the evening, leaving the office around 5:30 then arriving home around 8pm. Sleeping around 6-7 hours per night, this is so short for me! Haha. Well I guess, I can adapt to this soon. For weekends, I can sleep as long as I can.

BTW, announcement, my sister in law is pregnant, same with my Sophie (dog) and Sascha (cat)! All three soon-to-be mothers, in our parent's house in Aurora, and we hope to visit them soon, maybe end of August (long weekend)!

Despite the long distance traveled from house to office, 4 hours per day, it feels good that now, after 9 years of renting a place, I finally have settled into a place of 'our' own. Willy and I have plans to improve the renovated house, and I cant wait to see it finished. Our decision was right. And I do really hope that this decision will lead to some other things we have been wanting to have.

Tomorrow is our 5th Year Anniversary together. I bought a gift for him - a guitar for him to practice his skill, and teach me how to play it as well :-) ! Ah I hope we can go to Laguna tomorrow to celebrate it. For now, I am really sleepy. TGIF.
