DAYDREAMS

We are never too old to daydream. A few days ago i was in that daydream mode. I dreamt i was the chairman of the board of a giant conglomerate (naks! when you dream, dream big!) i said to myself, wouldn't it be something if i could make it into the overs of the big manila magazines? So i did just that. And ehre's how that daydream appears in full color:

Marikina, here we come!

When I was born, our family lived in Project 4 where my father built a two-storey house. That was in 1975. In 1983, We transferred to Cubao. The location was very good. We were within wlaking distance (as in one to three blocks away) from Manila COD, Ali Mall, Shoemart, Fiesta CArnival, Aurora Boulevard etc. Then, 4 years later, we transferred to San Andres in Manila where we would be staying fro twenty years. We will be moving next month (again!) and this time it will be at Provident subdivision in Marikina City. We are looking forward to our transfer. Updates to come soon!

BAGUIO VACATION

This summer, my siblings invited me, my sister and friends to spend summer vacation in Baguio. My friends, sister and I converged at Jacky G.'s place in Sanville QC and from there Poppo, Jacky, Zach, Ater Rosae, Aubrey and Noel proceeded to the Summer Homes of Meralco. We stopped to have breakfast at May Farms in Tarlac. We arrived in Baguio around lunch time via Marcos Highway. The guys (Poppo, Noel and I) immediately went to Baguio City Market to buy food which we will cook for our group. We whipped up a sumptuous dinner of barbequed chicken, sinigang na kambing and tuna pasta in tomato sauce with capers. After dinner, we played several rounds of Texas Holdem poker, after which the
others went on to play "in between". The next day, we prepared a breakfast of daing na bangus and longgansiang baguio. The guys spent the morning searching for fresh veggies which took us to La Trinidad Valley as the girls repared for our afternoon "pasyalan". For luncht hat day Poppo made a delicious Nilagang Baka and (again) chicken barbeque (what can we say, we had lots of charcoal and chicken!!!). That night, we had dinner witht eh family of Ate Ruth and Kuya Vic at Atenara Restaurant, a cozy, out-of-the-way eat all you can pasta and steak buffet). The next day, before heading tback to the hustle and bustle of Manila, Ate Ruth and Kuya Vic invited us to have breakfast with their family at the Baguio Country Club. From Baguio, we proceeded to my mother's hometown of Aringay, La Union where we had a filling lunch of inihaw na tilapia, inihaw na baboy, talaba, dinardaraan, fresh shrimps and veggies! Truly, trhat trip will be etched in our barkada's memories!
