Just an Update

It's so nice to be back here in the whole, wide, blogosphere. You might be wondering why the heck I hibernated from blogging and reading your posts. Finally, after 1 month, my internet got fixed just yesterday. Yep, it took me a month before Smartbro's contractor came by to visit and check out my internet cable, only to find out that Smartbro (my internet provider), redirected the signal sector that I should be getting. They shoud've told me earlier, instead of exhausting all means of troubleshooting with them. The contractor said, Smartbro was aware of that and was just cost-cutting. What a bull! It's just sooooo frustrating. I was on the verge of disconnecting my service with them, just thank God, I still have enough patience to wait till the 24th. I'm definitely filing for a rebate for this.

Anyway, so much had happened to me for the past 3 weeks.  Didn't do much cooking, but I had been a little busy getting back my social life - reunions, parties, birthdays, weddings and taking care of my brother in the hospital, a few eatouts, etc.

Hubbylito's bandmate just got married last July. It was a solemn, emotional, classic, and a simple celebration. It was nothing of a flashy, jazzy, themey, and a show-off wedding. So as expected, no overwhelming preparation and bridezillas, obliged tasks and contributions or whatever (I remember being impelled to pay for my bridesmaid gown. Money wasn't a thing, but being obliged to pay is a different story). The church (forgot the name), is also where the  bride's baptism took place.  Here are a few shots me and Denz have taken. 

Finally, after 10 years, my highschool friends, and classmates held a dinner/cocktail reunion party. It was nice seeing old friends, classmates, and teachers. The geeks had turned into, still geeks. The pretty uptights have their own families already, and the easy-go-lucky are still the same (but at least some have changed, some drastically the opposite of what they used to be, some have become a couple). High school has the most memorable and fun moments. Every person or group has labels - the geek, the cheerleader, the rockstar, the bully, the popular, the jockey, the dork, the outcasts, etc, etc. It was just so nice to see everyone hanging out. 

My Highschool BFFs and I also had a separate get together dinner, since Grace, may not be able to attend the grand reunion. Well, all of them have kids already, except for me. Twas fun catching up with them too. Just hoping that Moksha and Lish will make it next time...

My brother Jay just had his hemorrhoidectomy a couple of weeks ago. It was nothing much serious, Jay just availed the free full medical insurance his company provides. At least something he could avail for free big time, just before he decided to leave his company. I stayed at the hospital for 3 days, with my sister. Good thing, my inlaw's girlfriend, Nikki, whose also a nurse (like my sis) is assigned at the same floor where we stayed. She pretty much took care of Jay's discharge.
