Our Subic trip was great! Sobrang fun. :) Kaya lang mejo naspoil kasi sumama yung matatanda. Sobrang badtrip kami nung simula kasi si lola yung nagpasimuno kaya sila sumama. Hello? Alam naman nilang lakad ng mga bata yun. Ayun.. Sobrang nakakainis lang, ang KJ kasi. But they chose a cottage that's 20 meters away from us. At least they got our point. When we got home from a tiring but fun day, our maid told us that tatay called. Arriane and I were like "Oh? Bakit kaya?". We haven't seen tatay for 5 years already and the last thing we heard about him is that he now lives in Pangasinan. If he called, that means he's in Manila. We kept wondering if we'll be having a vacation in Novaliches. That house in Novaliches is where we usually stay everytime a magvavacation kami sa fatherside. Though the family who lives there is just our 2nd degree relatives, we were very close to them. We were thrilled to the idea of being with Ate Jewels, Ate Winchell, and Ate Arvie again. We were always together before and I can still remember when there was a big party and they made us dance Stop by the Spice Girls. Hahaha! Can you imagine us dancing in front of a large audience? :) It was really embarassing when I think about it. But we were just kids then! Haha!


Arriane and I found ourselves in that big, full-of-memories house on Monday [4/18/05] early in the morning. Yes, tatay picked us up and we were really happy to see him again. We were happy to see Ate Wes and Ate Winchell again. :) Arriane and I were shocked when Ate Wes and Ate Winchell told us the story why Ate Arvie wasn't with us. It's because she got pregnant and the father wasn't willing to take responisibility of the baby. Another surprising fact is that that man is Aldrin, the one Ate Arvie was gushing about 5 years ago when the bilyaran's still in business. The last time we had a vacation in Novaliches kasi open pa yung bilyaran nila and dun kaming 5 madalas magstay. We had crushes back then dun sa mga cute na nagbibilliards. I can still remember the name of my crush though hindi ko na maalala yung mukha niya. Mine's Gin, Arriane's Tyrone, I can't remember yung kay Ate Wes and Ate Winchell, and yung kay Ate Arvie's Aldrin. Siya pa naman yung pinakamabait tingnan sa lahat, hindi pala. Looks can be REALLY deceiving. Can you believe the guts of that man? When Ate Arvie informed him of her pregnancy, sabi daw ni Aldrin, "Pwede pa naman natin ipalaglag eh, if hindi mo ipapalaglag yanhindi ko yan papanagutan." Grabe! Tawag nga sa kanya nila Ate Wes demonyo eh! Argh. Naiinis din talaga ko dun sa lalaking yun. Ate Arvie's family isn't that well-off pa naman. You see, Ate Arvie and Ate Wes are actually our Titas but since they're only a few years older than we are, we just call them ates. Ate Winchell naman is Ate Wes' cousin sa motherside (Arriane and I sa fatherside) so we're not actually related by blood. And that house sa Novaliches is like a big, big bahay ampunan. :) Kasi most sa fatherside ko hindi masyadong lucky sa money eh yung mom and dad ni Ate Wes ang pinakamayaman sa buong angkan nila kaya yun.. sobrang bait nila Lolo Jesse tsaka Lola Lisa na pinapag-aral nila yung mga kamag-anak namin na hindi makapag-aral tsaka pinapagvacation nila yung mga pinsan and pamangkin namin na mga bata dun. So yun.. we had fun staying there din though namiss ko talaga si Erick.. :( We went home Thursday that week din kasi kailangan ni Arriane mag-enroll sa Friday. How I wish we never have to separate with tatay again. :(
I'll sure miss him and the fact that it'll take a long time before we see him again breaks my heart.


Saturday came. I spent the whole day with Erick, Arriane, Jen, Macy, Pia, Dane, Tin, Artus, and Carlo. Too bad Wessa, Karen, and Paul wasn't able to be with us that day. We had so much fun at Enchanted Kingdom! Yuck parang nagaadvertise. But we did have fun kahit na sobrang init and daming tao. I enjoyed they're extra-special fireworks that night 'cause of their 10th anniversary. :) I just love being with my friends! :)


I spent the past few days here at home with Erick. Oh yeah, last Tuesday nagpaxray na pala ko ng teeth for my braces. :) hihi. Pareho na kami ni Erick magmumukhang nerdy nerdy. I'll post pictures of Subic and EK trips soon. :) c ya!

Wow. Tinamad na naman ako mag-update. Haha. Almost a month na. :D Well obviously my 1st year in college is now officially over. Aww.. I'll miss my classmates. Ma-rereshuffle na daw kami next sem eh. Erick's finding a new school now because he has a subject na naiwan so di siya pwedeng magthird year pag di niya natapos yun, 1 year siyang mahuhuli. Basta something like that. Yeah summer's my favorite season but when I'm just here at home, boredom's killing me! That's why as much as possible I try to get out of my hole.


Wednesday: Oh my! I craved for books. Nabasa ko na kasi lahat ng books dito sa bahay. :D I wanted something nice to read. Here's how the conversation went:
Kristal: bi, punta tayong National Bookstore bili ako ng libro.
Erick: O cge. Gusto ko rin magpamassage sa celeb eh. Sa Katipunan na lang kita idadaan.
Kristal: OK.:) Para may mabasa na rin ako while waiting for you.
Ayun. :) After waiting for 1 1/2 hours, we finally ate dinner. Haha! We ordered A LOT 'cause we were both starving. YUMM!:D


Thursday: I spent almost the entire day at kabila [cousin's house]. We finalized our outing. Hehe. I was assigned treasurer. Haha. Dami ko tuloy pera ngayon. :) Erick came over at around 7 pm. Nanood lang siya ng TV sa kabila while my cousins and I were computing our budget.


Today: I woke up at exactly 8:15. Ate Weng and I were supposed to go to the market at 8! Haha. I guess I'm not the only one who woke up late. Grabe, sobrang dami naming binili pambaon namin tomorrow. And boy was it heavy! Pareho pa naman kaming payat ni Ate Weng. HAHA! Yay!!! In 12 hours I'll be on my way to Subic. :D Even though it's just Subic I still can't wait to get there and have fun with my cousins and of course Erick. Yay! It's going to be the farthest place we'll be into na walang kasamang matanda. Si ate weng na pinakamatanda and she's just 27. haha. While Ate Weng and I were on our way home she said, "Sabi nga ni Jonathan nasosobrahan na tayo sa bonding eh. Dapat daw magdisband na tayo." Haha. We just have these special connections with one another. We know that we'll always be close with one another.. till we get old. Awww.. Love you cuzs!:)


Just a thought: I am currently addicted to Full House but I just HATE the Tagalized version. ARGH. Grabe sobrang corny tapos iba-iba pa yung translation nila na naiiba na yung story! Lalo na yung 3 Bears Song! Sorry pero.. ANG CORNY. Pumapanget tuloy dahil sa kanila. Plus, ang DAMI nilang cinut. Grrr..
