happy...i got my sign

i feel so happy...i never expected this to happen too soon...

i woke up in the morning feeling a little bit strange. i got a txt message from my boyfriend asking me a weird question. he gave me a hint when he asked me that question. but nevertheless, i just brushed the thought off my mind and spent the day as normally as i can.

noon came, and he texted me again asking me another strange question. my suspicions are getting stronger but at the back of my mind, i never thought he would do it this soon. i tried calling him but there was no answer. i was wondering, "wait a minute...a few seconds ago we were just txtng each other and then suddenly he can't answer my call?" hmmm...something fishy is going on.

he then called me and tried his best to act normal. and i thought to myself, "ahhh, i might be imagining things". so i went on with my work and stopped thinking about the strange signs.

he fetched me at the office at around 7:00pm. we were supposed to go to ATC, but he suddenly said that we should just stay there since it's already late. i agreed. then later on, he said, "kain tayo ha, minsan lang kita i-treat". ok, i agreed. he first bought me the shoes i was craving for and then we went to the restaurant. when we arrived, i noticed him glancing at the manager. hmmm...what the hell does that mean? i shrugged the thought off since i honestly do not believe that he could actually do it. and so, we took our seats and then gave our orders. after a few minutes the waitress gave us our drinks, and just a few seconds after, the manager took it away...sabi nya "ay baka hindi sa atin yun". ok, nothing there...a few minutes have passed and i am starting to feel really strange. our conversation was unnatural. he seemed tense and the scene was really weird. a few minutes more and the manager approached us and told us that everything was already arranged. i asked him why we had to transfer seats, ang sabi nya "mainit dun eh". so i just followed him and to my horror, we were heading to the function room. i don't know what to feel and think. "why the hell are we heading here?". and as we approached, i saw that our orders were already there and we had the room to ourselves. hmmm....

so we ate, and talked. he explained that he had it arranged since he missed me so much and wanted to spend time alone with me. we had another unnatural conversation, talking about his work, calculating how much the bill would be and actually telling me that he might not have enough money on hand to pay for it (which was all a drama, by the way) talking about a friend who recently broke up with his girl. throughout this conversation, i cannot seem to focus. there is something strange here...

he started getting all serious, talking about things that i have never heard him talk about before. he said that he feels sorry for our friend and was wondering if he was able to propose to the girl before they broke up, etc..etc.. he told me that he did not want the same thing to happen to him.

and then he reached for my hand...he started talking about us, about celebrating our 10th year, about how much he loves me and how much he wants everything to be perfect but can't seem to think of a way to make things even more perfect. at this point in our conversation, i was already feeling uneasy, i know something's up. i even tried to stop him from getting so serious because i am not used to it. but he just won't stop. he kept saying things that, honestly, i do not remember now. all i remember was when he asked me if "papakasalan mo ba ko?" i said "yes, naturally. we have been talking about it already". but then he repeated the question, "will you marry me?" i said yes...and then he showed me the ring and said, "then you'll have to wear this." at that point i started to cry...i don't know why..i'm just so happy because i just got my sign...God is good.

he slipped the ring into my finger, but i can't seem to look at it. he kept telling me to look at it but i just can't. i was just so elated! i was still crying...all i was able to say was "i love you"...

i am overwhelmed. i am happy...i cannot believe he planned all of that...and was sorry that the ring was not really the ideal ring.though admittedly it was not my dream proposal (and he knows that),but what the heck! i have him, don't i? for me that's enough. seeing him get all teary-eyed when talking to me, hearing him say things that he hasn't said before, and making me feel truly special (eh imagine, nakayanan nya magrequest na maoccupy namin ung function room!!! who wouldn't feel special about that?) i don't even care whether he proposes or not...we're going to get married and the proposal was just a confirmation that we ARE getting married.

i love him...that's all i can say...and i am happy...i love him, so much!

My Mommy Entry # 7

My In My Womb 3d/4d Ultrasound Experience Last Saturday, we had our 6th checkup with our OB-Gynecologist. So far, everything's ok. I passed my Glucose Challenge test, but I still need to cut on my sugar intake. We were also able to hear our little one's heartbeat. Next week I will be having my Tetanus Toxoid shot -- scary!! After the checkup, we proceeded to Makati for our scheduled 3d4d ultrasound at In My Womb. I have heard lots of great reviews about this ultrasound center so we have decided to have our ultrasound there. Their center is located at 2f, The Link Bldg, Ayala Makati. The building is beside Landmark. Before proceeding, we had our lunch first at Ineng's Special BBQ -- great food, terrible customer service! After eating, we then proceded to the 2nd level. We were greeted by a courteous nurse and I told her that I was scheduled for an ultrasound with Dra. Ramos. I would actually like to have the procedure done by the owner, Dra. Shiela Illescas, since i

Troubles and Trials

It's been a loooonnnnggg time since I last wrote down my thoughts.  Times are hard and it's very challenging to keep up with the demands of life.  Sometimes I can't help but wonder why other people are luckier than some.  And then I go on thinking if I am part of the "luckier" ones.  Yes, I may have problems and and challenges that I have to go through but at least I am still alive.  My loved ones are still with me and I can still go through each day, albeit one day at a time. I wake up every day thinking if I can still go on another day pretending that everything's ok.  And then I finish each day thinking how I was able to go through the entire day without giving up. And then, I look at the people I love and I know the answer.  It's because of them that I keep on struggling and I keep on fighting.  To the words of my husband, "you are not helpless because everyday you choose to fight". Life is tough.  But I am tougher. I can. I will.

Transformation

What do you think of when you hear the word "Transformation"? For me it means changing and evolving for the better.  But how does it really feel like when one undergoes the transformation process?   One thing's for sure -- it is not an easy process.  When you undergo a transformation, it means going back to basics.  Unlearning what you know and accepting new ways.  Sometimes transformation can hit you pretty bad that you think it is not necessary.  But in the long run, it is always important to understand the need for such change.  You may not believe and understand it now, but at least try to give it a chance. Sometimes hearing the word scares me.  Not because I am afraid of what it brings, but because I am too comfortable where I am now and I think any movement will cause me to fall down.  But hey, I have been through tougher times.  And I will surpass this for sure.
