Muji, Chelsea and My Ninja

Chelsea

We flew to Manila via Cebu Pacific's 12 noon flight last October 29. I had mixed feelings because while I was excited to see Shanghai with the hubby, our flight schedule did not make it possible for us to get Jake from school. My only consolation is seeing him as a ninja for his school halloween costume party. Really cute! I had several pics of him wearing it just before he ran off to his car pool service.

Ninja for Halloween

We had 8 hours before our flight to Shanghai so Jerry and I checked in our luggage early and took a cab to Bonifacio High Street to drop by Muji. It reminded me of Ikea but it had more apparel than house furnishing and stuff. It is a pretty cool place with a lot of interesting things to tinker with, if not buy. Jerry ended up buying a pair of off-white sneakers.

Oh... and I happened to see Charlie Cojuangco too, lining up by the counter. I think I saw some hangers in his basket, if I'm not mistaken. He was with a lady. Hehe... Now I'm beginning to sound too showbiz.

Anyway, with enough time for an early dinner before heading back to the airport, we stopped by Chelsea at Serendra to have an order of salmon on baked potato and asparagus, split into two. Yum!

Angels Are All Around Us

by Junnie Metro Manila is still wet. Some parts are still with knee-deep waters. One thing we have going for us is that we have strong faith that this too shall pass, and that the Filipino will rise above. It is October already and it seemed that no one noticed that we arrived Manila last Monday at the heels of the weekend Typhoon Ondoy visited the country. This week we celebrated the feast of the Archangels - Raphael, Michael and Gabriel, and last Thursday, we celebrated the feast of our Guardian Angels. What a whole week of heroic deeds from Pinoys helping their kababayans, and for all the angels in our lives. :)

School and a Mixed Bag of Emotions

"You can’t imagine your life with kids, until you have them, then you can’t imagine your life without them." ~Author Unknown It's been a week since two of our three sons flew to Manila to attend their classes. Even with the (remaining) 9 year old son at home, doing his usual stuff alternately watching tv, tinkering with his Legos, cutting/ folding/ creating things with paper and playing with the iPad, and making a ruckus all by his lonesome, the house is, weirdly, quiet. I often find myself introspecting... about the nest almost empty now and other similar thoughts. And I struggle to stop myself from wallowing in a mixed bag of emotions. It's not a bad thing, except, I could waste hours doing that. I thought I was totally in control and could dismiss the situation as another milestone, like seeing your child lose his first baby tooth. Nothing a warm hug or an ice cream could not fix. On the contrary, that hug at this time just exacerbates the yearning. It

by Linnor When the boys are home, their room doesn't stay as orderly as the pic above.  Mistulang binagyo kapag silang lahat ay nasa loob ng kanilang asul na kwarto. :) Merong nag-gigitara, merong nagko-kompyuter at merong naglalaro ng Lego.  Sa madaling sabi, pag nasa silid sila, talagang di maiiwasan ang pagiging makalat nito.  :P Anyway, at least nasa bahay lang sila at hindi nagbabarkada sa labas. Pero sa totoo lang, after a long day at work or from school, it's always nice to come home to a clean house.  Ang sarap magpahinga sa maayos na kabahayan pagkatapos ng mahabang araw  di ba?
