AYABYU

I was about to have my lunch when my phone rung this afternoon, I knew at once it was my husband calling. After a little chit chat we end up the call with our magic words – I love you and I love you too.

Husband and I say that magic words countless times a day. Consistently, every morning before parting to work, on the phone, on YM, on emails and before sleeping – a kiss and a whisper of I love you…

I have a husband who is very sweeet and much more flirty than me! So this shall be my share for today’s theme of “Have I told you lately” at CC! Happy CC Everyone..

PS: And for the title? That’s how our daughter yena pronounces I LOVE YOU. For my husband who for sure is reading this – AYABYU Daddy!

Sleepless Night

I am so uncertain to leave home this morning. Though I know my parents house is just a few walks away from our home I feel so cautious every time we leave home; especially every morning when we have to go and my little daughter is still sleeping.

I wasn’t able to sleep last night. I have been waiting for husband, who spends some drinking session with his cousins, a continuation of the celebration of his favorite cousin’s wedding. I was so restless the whole time waiting, I worry too much that the gate and the main door weren’t extra locked. If only we have ADT at home I wouldn’t worry too much. I would put an ADT security camera near our living room window and the other one near the kitchen window. It should be particularly secure especially when husband and I aren’t home.

We leave home during weekdays; my daughter often spends her day at my parent’s house. My mother would always lock the house but still am worried of intruders. On weekends we spend our time with my in-laws so the home is still empty. We just need to put up an ADT security system so every time we are out of the house we feel secure.

I know what you did last weekend

We had a very hectic weekend. I took a vacation leave last Friday coz I offered my service as a flower arranger for husband’s cousin’s wedding. We went to buy the cheapest roses at Dangwa and I had a grand time decorating them the whole day.

The wedding happened the next day, Saturday and it was a blast. I was a proud mother when my daughter walks down the aisle; she was one of the flower girls by the way. When the bride walks down the aisle everybody was moved to tears.

After the wedding, we went to meet a very dear friend who came from Japan. The details of that I have to share very soon. We went home tired but still wanted to have some TV time. Husband used to watch basketball game but is still longing for more sports. That’s the main reason why I have been looking for a DIRECT TV near us.

There will be lots of options on our viewing time and I would not be bored on choosing over 2 channels. I have been asking one neighbor who has a DIRECTTV and I am thinking if I should get their service too. I need a Direct TV Satellite before March; I want to watch Manny Pacquiao fights versus Cottley at home. For sure husband would love the idea!

Looking through your eyes

Husband and I can read each other’s thought by looking through each other’s eyes. Sometimes my being transparent betrays me – he knows me very well. He can hide his feelings but his eyes will always leak what’s on his mind. But now every time I buzz him at YM and begin with ‘daddy I have a question’ his replies would be..

Of, course I love you..

I miss you too..

We will have another play mate when yena turns 3..

As if answering all that’s running in my mind. Hahah.

Husband likes mestisa, sexy and long haired girls. But he will tell me which one is sensual or which one has no sex appeal. Husband is very sweet, he would never let a day pass without saying I love you, kissing and hugging me even in public. He is very funny guy but sometimes misunderstood by my friends. They thought I was under him – if only they knew the truth. He is overprotective of me, scares a lot when am out for dinner with my friends.

He enjoys the weekend watching movies and playing basketball with his cousins. He loves to cook and stays most in my little kitchen. Making KILAWIN is his specialty. He loves to create a whole-lotta-mess around the house – I think that’s what he does best above all – he is not a neat-freak.

Husband doesn’t drink coffee, only milk. His choice of drink when lunching out is pineapple juice and iced tea. He eats everything as in everything EXCEPT kare kare. He loves Filipino food, spicy dishes, vegatables and fish. He loves fruit salad and biko – that he can consume a kilo all by himself. He prefers Jollibee chicken over McDonalds. He loves Max’s as much as I do.

He is very particular with his undergarments and pants. He only has bench briefs and levi’s pants – that’s where he loves to spend. But he is very miser -- most of his tshirts, he bought from UK (yes, ukay ukay!) He seldom gets sick – actually he just got back to work now. He has fever since Monday night. He never fails to attend mass every Sunday.. He has a faith stronger than mine. He plays the guitar very well and sings well too.

He loves/adores my highschool friend Daryl. He likes my blogging kumares so much, he knows them all by name.. he knows who lives in Japan, US or locally. He embraces blogging because he knew I would be happy when he updates his blog asap. And that’s a hint, hey daddy update your blog! I have been doing free advertising for you.. Mukang ambait mo sa post kong ‘to, hahah.

So the list will go on and on. I can brag about how well I know my husband but am afraid you will fall to sleep.. SO there! Happy CC! See you around guyz..

Naked Weapon

I miss TCP! It’s so good to be back.. For last week, I have to agree that AVATAR really leads 2010 blockbuster movie. It is one of my favorite films of all time not only because of the papable Jake Sully but also because I watched it with my most papable husband, Yobib lol.

When kikamz told me about this week’s theme I only had SO CLOSE in my mind, my sister and I love that film so much, we watch it over and over again. But since kamz featured it already I have to share my next favorite girl power film – NAKED WEAPON.

What I dislike on the film is the brutal trainings and the part when the three girls were raped by Madam M’s guards. But the film has a ‘so close’ charm because the lead characters are pretty but deadly. You don’t mess with girls like them..

And for those who haven't watch the film yet, here's a plot from IMDB:

Like a contagious virus, pretty and athletic girls in their teens start disappearing around the globe one after another. The mastermind behind these abductions is Madame M, who plans to train these girls into professional killers. After several years of gruesome training, only Charlene, Katt and Jill survive and become the world's most sought after professional killers. On a recent mission to assassinate someone in Hong Kong, however CIA agent Jack, who vows to help her reclaim her past by eliminating Madame M.

Expiration Date on Marriage

I heard the news today about putting an expiration date on marriage contract. Marriage term is like 10 years and it’s up to the couple to renew it after ten years. I shared the news to husband on yahoo messenger and I can’t stop laughing when I read his reaction..

So our conversation goes like this:

ME: have you heard about the news? About a law putting an expiration date on marriage?

HIM: oo, astig noh! Parang tanga lang ang nakaisip (yes, I heard about it. Seems like some moron thought about this!)

Yes, that’s how my husband answers things. But seriously, who would have thought that someone of sane mind would advocate such law..

Have they forgotten about their wedding vows of - - for better, for worst.. in sickness and in health.. ‘TIL DEATH DO US PART?

He made me really angry

Pardon my absence pretty please. I miss CC, I miss all of you. Thanks for welcoming back! ;) hahahah. So now I have to disclose what my husband did that made me really angry.. Hmmmmm should I share a past story? This will be very humiliating on husband’s part but for the sake of CC here it is, peace daddy ha! This for CC only.. heheh

Husband usually fetches me every afternoon at work. One night, I waited and kept on calling him on his cellphone but he was not answering his phone. He texted me saying he was on his way.. He arrived at my office looking very handsome, he wore differently his jeans and polo and that was the last time he wore it that way.

So later that night, I noticed him texting like crazy. Just a bit of information, husband hates texting. But on that particular night he went out of our apartment and bought a prepaid load, he must have been texting a very important person, that’s what I thought.

So while he was away, I secretly get the number of that someone he’s texting – It was one of his guy friends number. I saw that his guy friend has two numbers saved on his cellphone, I get both numbers and saved it on my phone. The next day I called that number and learned that it was indeed his friend’s number BUT when I tried to reach the other number, a girl answered.

I was really furious at that time and I remembered how much husband asked forgiveness and promised not to ‘have dinner with girlfriends’ ever again. You don’t want to see me mad, that I have to tell you. I am really scary. So I scared that flirty girl away, that I am very, very sure! It is really hard to tame me when I am mad, it will take a loooong time to cool me down. Husband did all things to bring me back to my sane self.. And I have been sane ever since. BOW.

Celebrate Anniversaries the CHEESY way

Husband and I celebrate two very special days monthly - our monthsary as lovers (the day we officially became an item) and as a couple (the day we officially became husband and wife). So when my friend, Ate Binx asked me to blog some tips on how to celebrate anniversary the non-cheesy way I declined. I told her am sooo cheesssy.. ;)

So here are my cheesy tips – those that husband and I already did and those that I am looking forward of doing.. hahah

1st year: Bonding galore

Husband isn’t into books, but we spent our first year anniversary cuddling while reading our books we bought as gifts for each other. We dined at our favorite restaurant and spent the whole day together..

2nd year: Romantic Getaway

Visit Coron, this is so recommended for couples who like some rest and recreation. Almost all the white sand beaches are secluded, you can swim, snorkel together and have all the fun under the sun, stars and the moon.. I highly recommend the cottage we stayed in – visit coron and stay at Krystal Lodge! You won’t regret it..

Oh well, the ff are my random thoughts on how cheesy I am when celebrating anniversaries well some are petty but sweet while some are grand..

1. Leave a love note on his pocket or to any secret place on the day of your anniversary or paste it somewhere he goes first thing in the morning.

2. Wake him up at 12AM, greet him and kiss him. Am sure this will lead to something you both love to do. ;)

3. Surprise him by sending roses at his work or wherever he may be. This is an ultimate ‘cheesy’ thing for men no matter how much masculine they are! Let the flowers do the talking..

4. Go to a romantic place like Tagaytay and spend the day holding hands while strolling. If you can stay overnight on a cottage, the better! Prepare him breakfast in bed. Ultimate cheesiness. ;)

5. Call him or email him you want to go out for a date. If you can make reservation for a romantic candlelight dinner, do it! Or eat on your fave restaurant or fast food chain. The place would not matter anyway..

6. Watch romantic movie together, go to a bar or somewhere secluded where you can talk or just stare at one another

7. Take another honeymoon to a destination that you both wanted to visit.. or just check into a hotel nearby.. ;)

8. Stay at home, cook his favorite food, light candles – create a very romantic atmosphere. Share your thoughts, discuss anything you want to. Tease him while talking..

9. Go on a picnic. Pack your picnic hamper and bring all your favorite foods. Communicate while feasting on the food. Stare, kiss, cuddle and hug each other. Or talk about the old times when you first met

10. Call him and confess how much you love him. Email him or talk deliciously on chatrooms. Flirt with him like there’s no more tomorrow.

Choose on how much you are willing to commemorate the high and low times you conquered with your partner! Just don’t forget to CELEBRATE! Enjoy and cherish each other’s company. A grand date or you simple you-and-me time together could do wonder to make your anniversary more memorable!
