Birthday countdown..almost over!

7PM:
Exactly! Just perfect...the eve of her birthday when my "Sugo" with his screen name, Maxwell finally arrived at their home. Medyo nagkaproblema sa visa niya kaya nauna nang dumating ang gift bago siya =) Dumaan pa siya sa Animal Industries for some inspection and sanitary permit! Hehehe. His duty, he will be witnessing the opening of the mystery gift that Cay has since the time it arrived (July 8). At 12:01AM of July 28, he will allow Cay to open it. Talk about the agony of 20 days waiting before she can open it kahit walang bantay! Hehehehe...

Time well spent with Maxwell! Worth killing the time isn't it? =)

11:55 PM (July 27)
Ok, today is the eve of her birthday...and together on the phone,
we are connected to welcome her birthday (Edmonton Time Zone)...

"Talk about the most exciting birthday countdown! Para bang yung countdown na tipong may malaking ball na idadrop in the middle of Time Square….mala-New York ang dating! "
- Cay (quoted from the Cosmpolitan Magazine)

All the anticipation and mystery will be over in a matter of minutes!

10...9...8...7...6..5...4...3..2...1...0.. countdown ends!

My babe can now open her gift while im singing my own rendition of Happy Birthday To You!!!
Yahoong yahoo!!!

With these words : "Will you marry me?"
Baby Cay's answer: Yes I will!

In a lot of ways, 20 days really was a long wait pero kinaya ko!!...para sa 'yo babe!....I know that whatever it is, it'll be worth the wait!.....20 days is short nga compare to 13 years that we waited to get to this stage of our lives.....ngayon I realized that even more...i love you..
- Cay (quoted from the Bridal Magazine)

So much happiness and joy as Cay cuddles Maxwell after opening the best gift ever on her birthday! Can't wait to marry my baby next year!

This is the song that i have sent to her on the eve of her birthday.
Song: True
Artist: Ryan Cabrera representing Jeremy Gallardo (hehehe)

I won't talk I won't breathe
I won't move till you finally see
that you belong with me

You might thinkI don't look
but deep inside in the corner of my mind
I'm attached to you..mmmm...

I'm weak it's true
Cause I'm afraid to know the answer
Do you want me too?
Cause my heart keeps falling faster

[chorus]
I've waited all my life to cross this line
To the only thing thats true
So I will not hide
Ii'ts time to try
Anything to be with you
All my life I've waited
This is true....

You don't know what you do
Everytime you walk into the room
I'm afraid to move

I'm weak it's true
I'm just scared to know the ending
Do you see me too?
Do you even know you meant me!

[Chorus]
I've waited all my life to cross this line
To the only thing thats true
So I will not hide
Its time to try
Anything to be with you
All my life I've waited
This is true

I know when I go
I'll be on my way to you
The way that's true

[chorus]
I've waited all my life to cross this line
To the only thing thats true
So I will not hide
Its time to try
Anything to be with you
All my life I've waited this is true ...

July 11...a prelude to Cay's Birthday Countdown!

Ok, my monthsary and my mystery gift for Cay's birthday arrived earlier than expected (July 8)! And since then, the countdown begins, I excluded Saturday and Sunday, starting monday, I have one rose for her, exactly 18 days before here birthday! Magdedebut pa lang kasi ang baby ko! At isasayaw ko siya for 18 days, ako lagi ang first at last dance niya. Hahahaha!

And the week after that, after recovering from diarrhea and flu and been absent at work for 3 days, i received something that I've never expected. Since I am away that day it arrived, our office secretary received it for me. Guess what is it?

They can't be seperated, all their life were spent hugging each other! *LOL*

Dyaran!!!!
Two huggable and cute bears! Now it is a "bear" unlike the one i have sent to her, two singing "piggy bear"! Hahahaha! Now, I will call them "Hugz and Thugz" from the label it came from.

When I feel cold, it reminds me of how my baby is just hug away if I need one =)

Puerta Real Garden bridgeway main entrance

"These small but lovely gardens are laid out by the remnants of the defensive moat that used to surround Intramuros. From here you catch a glimpse of Puerta Real, the royal gate that was reserved for stately processions, and a section of Intramuros' moss-covered walls. With their highly evocative atmosphere, Puerta Real Gardens provide a fitting venue for Intramuros Evenings, a series of cultural shows staged annually under the management of the Intramuros Administration. "

Come here, you will see the light at the end...

On 9th of December 2006, this garden along Calle Real del Palacio (Gen. Luna Street) is ours!

Seventeen Months to Go!

Quite confusing huh! In my previous post it's 11 moths to go, now its 17 months to go!

In this journey called "life", only time has the final say, there may be storms and sunshine ahead of us... but there is one thing for sure...our promise, our dreams for each other..will be finally fulfilled on the same place where "the journey" has started.

We never went wrong on our first journey together and we will never be wrong because we started it in His place. He is guiding us in our journey. And come 9th of December 2006, we will meet again to fulfill that promise...our promise to ourselves and our promise to God.
