John's Serenade over the Celfone
Feb 18 was one of the memorable Friday nights I ever had. I always look up to Fridays not just because of the coming weekend but moreso because John and I talk over the celfone every Friday to update on each other's activities, especially to update him on our wedding preps since he is in Pangasinan and I am in Manila. Talk about long-distance love affair... and a huge Globe monthly bill! hahaha! But i dont have regrets, especially that Friday night. Somehow, John made up for his absence last Valentine...
Here's what happened... I called him last Friday and the first time i called, he was not answering... thoughts ran crazy in my mind... where he could have gone.... and with whom?.... gosh! so i dialled again, and he answered but it was very noisy so he couldn't hear a word... and so he hang up... then i called up again, this time kinda peeved and someaht irritated... then when he answered, he told me that he was in front of their compound, and as always, their neighbor is very noisy due to their videoke services and so he had to go to the back of their house so we can hear each other better.
And so after the usual "kamusta ka na Hon?" and "Kumain ka na ba?" and other pa-tweetums... i started hearing a sound... was not able to recognize it right away and so i asked him " ano ung sound na un hon?" And he replied "Gitara" ... and i asked again "Akala ko di ka marunong mag-gitara". His reply "Hindi nga, kinakapa ko lang"...
and then, with the cel sandwiched between his shoulders and ear, he started playing a tune...a tune very familiar to me... and so i started to hum... and then he began to sing..."Whenever I'm weary, from the battles that rage in my head...I'm holding a fortune, that heaven has sent back to me... I lose my way and still you seemed to understand... now and forever...I will be your man...and now I can rest my worries and always be sure... that I wont be alone anymore...if I've only known you were there all the time..." OMG! He was serenading me! and i just found myself crying in my bed while listening to him singing... and in my mind all I can say was "God, thank you for giving me this man to become my husband." Only when he spoke that I was pulled back from my reverie. I had to put down my celfone and wipe away the tears and clear my voice... I couldn't let him know I was crying...
That time I fell in love with John a thousand times over...the first time he sang for me was when we went to Pangasinan to attend their fiesta and unfortunately, our car broke down... but then that's another story that deserves a new post...
Until now, I still feel giddy about that Friday night serenade... and am looking forward to our wedding day when he will sing our theme song "All My Life"... I hope I can fight back the tears that might fall... but then... the heck with smudged make-up... I love him so much I'm not ashamed to cry. ;-)

A bridezilla cum QMR
Haayyy!! Just learned this morning that I'll be one of the QMRs for our company's application for ISO certification...i was totaly clueless about it and it came as quite a shock (well, not really as shock... just a surprise)...with 4 months to go before our wedding on june 18 and with the deadline for the ISO thing by mid-October, I'm wondering how will I be able to manage everything.... a bridezilla cum QMR... gosh! ISO consolidation meeting every Wednesday morning... that means I have to be early to avoid the Wednesday rush... wish that the semester will soon be over so that John can help me in our preps...

My Own Blog at Last!
At last I have my own blog... ;-) 4 months to go before our big day on June 18. Post Valentine fever is still around, at least for my friends who kept teasing and asking me whether John would be coming over from Pangasinan. I admit I was disappointed by him not coming over last weekend and not having spent Valentine with me, but as fellow W@Wie Data puts it, there will always be something to look forward to and be hopeful for... who knows John will make a surprise visit any time... knowing John as not that type, any antics by him would definitely be a surprise...
