Chronicles of 2011

Laziness is obviously evident in this blog if posting is the basis. Haha! I won't talk much about it but on the moments I have saved on my phone and pictures found  in Facebook. I missed some photos that weren't uploaded and are still sitting in my camera's memory card. For now, here's my 2011 chronicle. Yes, I know this is a long overdue which was set to be published last January 1 but due to technicalities was put on hold. Yeah, reasons and more reasons. LOL

JANUARY

I attended the first bootcamp of Nu Skin with my close friend, Nikki at Chateau Royale in Batangas. It was a rewarding and motivational experience.





I was able to travel during winter in Macau. It was my second time in this country. The first was in April 2008 during Spring. I didn't expect it was that cold and I came unprepared. Good thing there were some thrift shops in Senate Square and bought myself a "pretty in pink" coat at around 2000 pesos. Still not that cheap, though. I would love to go back anytime again, so join me.

FEBRUARY

It's the love month. I was looking for pictures to match an event but couldn't see one. I guess there's really not one as there's no sweetheart to celebrate it with. Hahaha

MARCH

I attended my goddaughter's and close friend's birthday party.






My sister, Mau gave birth to a cutie boy who was named after St. Clare and St. Francis. MONCLAIR FRANCIS





APRIL

We celebrated my father's birthday and sister's pregnancy at the farm. Unfortunately, pics are stored in the memory card and can't upload them yet as of now.


MAY

I officially rendered my resignation after almost 12 years in the company. Yay!

My family welcomed my sister's boyfriend who flew from US.




JUNE

We celebrated Cheska's birthday at Friday's.



Cheska and my sister, Mye attended the Miley Cyrus concert while my parents, my other sister, Mau and I had dinner at Gumbo in Mall of Asia where the concert was held.





Cheska lost her two front teeth. Had to take this picture as a remembrance. Hehe



JULY

My siblings minus one who was pregnant travelled to Vietnam. It's always fun travelling with them.






My brother-in-law's family and ours just had fun at Hotel Vida.




Bad news from my sister, Maricar. Her four-month twins lost their heartbeat. While she was confined at Medical City in Ortigas, my other sister, Marinel and I sampled some of North Park's dishes.





AUGUST

We celebrated my mother's birthday and house blessing of Maricar and Mikel.





Nu Skin's getaway in Baguio City.






Went to Aurora for the fiesta. Barangay fiestas would always have different pageants starting fron children to young adults. I was asked to award a kid. Forgive me for my outfit. I had no idea I'll go up the stage.






I enrolled in a gym to prepare for my sister's wedding but never lost weight. Sigh


SEPTEMBER

My childhood friends end up in a bar to celebrate, Riza's birthday and saw these foreigners strip dancing.




Resorts World trip.



Japanese food trip @ Niji in fields ave., Angeles City.






Monclair's six months



Nu Skin's Success Seminar
OCTOBER


Fiesta @ our barangay where I headed the committee. It wasn't that successful because of the rain.

Gloria Maris food trip. My sister, Manel always dreamt of serving herself Taho whenever she buys from a street vendor. A dream come true for this food trip. She enjoyed doing it and told me there's this kind of feeling everytime she scrapes the Taho. Haha!

Watched Sound of Music at Resorts World.

Enrolled in a make-up class at MDA with my sister.

NOVEMBER

All Saint's Day @ Starbucks after paying visit to my grandfather's and uncle's grave.

Celebrated my birthday in Manila and attended my sister's, Zha wedding shower.

Wedding of Zha and Joel.

Surprise birthday party given to Zha by his now husband, Joel.
I have to end this post to November before I may not be able to post it anymore. Haha! Anyway, December deserves a separate post. In conclusion, 2011 wasn't bad at all since I learned new things and gained new friends. I was able to travel twice abroad and within the country. I had more bonding time with my family too. The downside of it though is I gained weight because of too much malling and dining out. Hehe! I should be saying Happy New Year but it's no longer timely so I'd say HAPPY LOVE MONTH instead. May I find my true love this year. ;D
