Death and Funeral
My Paternal grandmother Lola Rosita passed away last July 22,2010.I’m going to Dipolog to see her for the last time. It’s a very and difficult time for our family. She was really very strict and very straightforward if she likes then she really likes you if its otherwise it will be wise to run to the other direction.
She and Adee ( My daughter shared the same birthday).She loved to read and from her I inherited my love for reading. She also loved gardening and I really hoped that I got her green thumb but all I got was the black thumb because I am unable to keep a living plant it just keeps dying on me.

Far from being absurd in the face of such a grave threat, dancing is actually a way to help save women from this fatal female disease. Fact is, a healthy and active lifestyle is part of the triad of cervical cancer prevention – apart from vaccination and regular screenings. Read the rest of this entry »

The Importance of Corporate Social Responsibility
Corporate social responsibility is becoming a relevant subject, and it appears repeatedly in the vast majority of academic and professional journals. Most of them have dedicated a special issue to it, and an increasing number of articles have been published concerning corporate social responsibility. In this paper, the authors ask themselves whether this is simply a new fashionable concept, as many others within the business argot, or, on the other hand, is it becoming a leading principle of top management and entrepreneurs’ behavior.

“THE WEDDING SINGER” ALL SET TO ROCK IN OCTOBER
9 Works Theatrical, one of the Philippines’ leading theater companies, proudly announces its forthcoming new production – THE WEDDING SINGER, a riotous yet heartwarming musical comedy based on the New Line Cinema film starring Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore. THE WEDDING SINGER is set to open at the Meralco Theater on October 23, 2010 and will run until November 17, 2010.
THE WEDDING SINGER is written by Matthew Sklar, with lyrics by Chad Beguelin, and book by Chad Beguelin and Tim Herlihy. The Tony Award-nominated musical captured the hearts of audiences all over America with its mind-blowing tribute to the 80s, its hilariously written script, and songs like “Someday,” “If I Told You,” and the phenomenal hit, “Grow Old With You.” The musical-comedy is set in New Jersey circa 1985.
When Robbie, a charismatic wedding singer, is dumped in the altar by his longtime girlfriend Linda, the protagonist becomes a casualty of love and plunges into the depths of dumpster-level despair. But with the help of his friend Julia, a sweet and caring waitress who is oddly engaged to a smug of a guy and Wall Street type named Glen, Robbie rediscovers why he was all about the “love” in the first place.

Salutations
Today is my mother in law’s birthday.. I sent her a small gift and I hope she uses it. She’s having a party and they invited us to go but Philbert is tied up at work and can’t go. (but somehow won’t is a better adjective and will not is even better)
Years ago I wished that Philbert would stand up for me and not allow his family to walk all over me. I waited for 9 years and suddenly just when I was resigned to just grin and bear it let it pass and make jokes about it. A minor misunderstanding triggered this cold war that he has with his family . (This has been going on for 7 months) To be honest I’m so relieved that he stood up for me and for that I am proud of him. But this is something that I never wanted to happen.
I never wanted him to be estranged from his family. I just wanted him to tell them off so that they could leave me alone. But never at this magnitude never at this kind of intensity. I feel sad for his family that they barely get to see my kids especially Adrianne. She’s such a charmer and because of this rift they really barely get to see her. In fairness to my inlaws they have reached to Philbert but he just refuses to budge. I do know where he is coming from and how he is feeling .
But now I’m trying to talk him into just moving on from what happened and to just make amends with his family and he just doesn’t want to.Maybe he’s not ready but I always tell him that life is too short and we need to do what we can while we can or it might be too late.

Equus the Long Review
For its midyear offering, Repertory Philippines comes up with another “first”: Peter Shaffer’s EQUUS. Multii-awarded – Tony Award for Best Play, New York Drama Critics’ Circle Award for Best Play, this riveting piece of theatre is at once relevant and mesmerizing in its storyline and theme. Psychiatrist Martin Dysart meets his most challenging case in a young boy of seventeen who has been charged with the crime of blinding six horses by gouging out their eyes. As the play unravels, one realizes that beneath the surface of the crime lies another dimension of the human psyche more terrifying than what it seems to be.
Equus stars a powerhouse cast: Miguel Faustmann, Jaime del Mundo, Dido dela Paz, Roselyn Perez, Tami Monsod – to name a few. Red Concepcion and newcomer Marco Manalac alternate as the young man Alan. At the helm as director is multi-awarded actor Audie Gemora.
STRICTLY FOR ADULTS ONLY. 18 YEARS OLD AND ABOVE.

BFF..
I have several BFF ‘s they represent different areas of my life. I choose not to have just one. I learned that the hard way.I guess it may sound selfish but it’s my way of shielding myself from the pain if and when it doesn’t work out. I didn’t want to sound imposing by just relying on one person. I know it’s weird but thats just me

Our Typical Day
Our typical day is when everyone is awake by 8am. Joshwa and Adrianne starts fighting about toys and the television.The kids have breakfast at 8:30am and takes a bath by 9:15 am to get ready for school. By 9:45am both kids are out the door to go to school. Joshwa is in SPED class while Adee goes to a playschool. By the time that the kids are out the door. I get 2 hours of ME time or until Philbert gets here. Both kids are home by 1pm and the chaos begins all over again. Joshwa has therapy 3 times a week which usually starts from 2pm to 4pm and Adrianne sits in and tries to imitate everything that they do. Fast forward to bedtime but kids are asleep by 9:30pm.
No one ever told me that this would be my life. I love it and I can’t imagine my life without my kids. Everyone thinks I’m crazy for wanting to have more kids. But I do..I really,really do. As
