Thanksgiving/23rd birthday of your Highness! **late post

“When you’re having fun, you feel great and you receive great things! Having fun brings the life you want…” — Rhonda Byrne

I'm just so thankful with these blessings, We know for a fact that i really prayed hard just to pass the NLE. and finally.. here it is.. JULY 8,2013-- an answered prayer. And yes, I just turned 23 last August 6.

Well yes, Folks! time flies.. before i was just a pretty bummer but now I still can't believe that i'm already a registered Nurse. :) ok.. enough for that.. i knew that I already said everything on my last Blog post.

Thinking back my August last year.. i know and some people knew that I'm so down last year.. that HABAGAT moments, heartbreak and so on.. Lots of things happened to me this month... i just don't know if i'm gonna be that happy because we all know that i lost a special friend. But on the other side, I mustn't quit i should've remain strong right? Everything happens for a reason and that reason would be the only way on how you can handle things the way it would be. (:

There is quite like a birthday to remind me how lucky i am for having such an amazing friends like them in my life. Thank you for celebrating with me on my 23rd Birthday :) It was really an amazing one! you knew it right? I'm just so so so happy being with these circle of friends. sersly swear!

define almost there!!! THIS! :)) i thought we're gonna be complete. or should i say kinda complete since we knew that there's one who got away! CHARAUGHT! :))) **from L-R --imak,me,jayson and jeca! mjhey and kevin are missing! we're gonna be complete! soon! MEET FRENELYNS 101! 

i'm just so blessed and thankful that i celebrated my another year of life with them. :) NOTE: konti lang po talaga ang pictures ko with my family kasi ako ang may pa event kaya ang focus na visitors! :))

I wish me all the happiness and blessings in life. THANK YOU LORD! 

My birthday just would not be the same without your warm and loving wishes. Thank you so much for all of them.

House Blessing *Batangas

“When we lose one blessing, another is often most unexpectedly given in its place.” 

― C.S. Lewis

2nd  day of March 2013. 

Finally, After so many years... BLESSED! 

You can't imagine that this could be happening! To think that way way back jurassic years.. it was a GREEN surrounding place, mango trees, chico, langka, macopa, banana, buko and whatsoever trees! a place where my cousins and I were used to play when we were kids.. now, it turns to be a place for the whole family to relax! The house with NO PLANS AT ALL!  my Uncle's like "gusto ko ng ganito, ganyan.. yung nasa magazine gayahin natin blah blah blah" 

Actually this was a big SURPRISE. not everyone knows that it has to be blessed! HAHAHA even LOLO was shocked (dahil ng flowers at ribbon sa gate? then may biglang dumating na pari?) HAHAHAHAHA. amazing! 

ribbon cutting with Tito Capt, Lolo and Tito Doc (they're like "hoy picture!!!" :))

at the event center? HAHAHAHAHA 

wow! amazing! the private pool!

 ka ching! :)) thunders!

IT WAS FUN! it's just sad that we're not complete. maybe they thought that it would be a BORING DAY or just an ordinary event! oh well i was NOT! everyone's becoming a camera addicts! err! :)) 

Family life is full of major and minor crises -- the ups and downs of health, success and failure in career, marriage, and divorce -- and all kinds of characters. It is tied to places and events and histories. With all of these felt details, life etches itself into memory and personality. It's difficult to imagine anything more nourishing to the soul.-- Thomas Moore

NEW YEAR 2012

we tried our best to stay simple. :) all i can say is, we're happy! 

Despite all those problems and whatsoever that our family have been through last 2012, we all know that it was just a trial. EXCUSE ME WE ARE MAGBOO AND ALL WE CAN SAY IS "LET THE PROBLEM WORRY ABOUT US!!!" hahaha 

What about my HEART? 

there's so much things and feelings to tell about but i don't wanna share it with you guys! It's for us to know, to keep and to remember. I'M SORRY FOR WHAT I'VE DONE!!! 

all i can say is "THAT'S SO LAST YEAR!!!"  I don't have to  forget, i just have to move on! If we're meant to be, then GO. TRUE LOVE WAITS, but if NOT then be it! All i want is someone who can accept me for who i am. Someone who is understanding and caring. I don't wanna ask something in return but  I don't wanna feel like a SPARE TIRE again nor a REBOUNDEE! :)

Never regret anything that has happened in your life, it cannot be changed, undone or forgotten. So take it as a lesson learned and move on.

note: this is my blog! i can say everything and anything i want! so JUST LET ME BE. :) 

HELLO 2013! this is my year! I'M CLAIMING IT!!! :)

Two Hearts as one. 

We all know that this day would come. 

As a ATE IRIS' cousin/friend/sister, i knew everything about her... (joke. hindi lahat! hahaha). As we grew up, I witnessed her ups and downs. Those hanging outs, playing under the rain, food trips, drinking sessions and what so ever. Being with her was such an exciting yet cute and memorable! WE ALL KNOW THAT WE'RE BOTH PRETTY *LAMANG LANG SIYA NG MGA LIMANG PALIGO! HAHAHAHA. 

I'm just so happy that she already met her destiny and a man  to be with forever named RUMESH. These two couple seems really happy with each others company. Though I haven't known Rumesh for such a period of time, I can feel that he's really sincere with my sister. I really can't imagine that these two different person with different nationalities and beliefs will crossed on each others path. 

--who knew that these babies in different nationality will meet and walk the aisle...and will be together as one... #only_God_knows... ^_*

As her Parents *Nelson and Mary Magboo* took her to her own LIFE.  YOU SHOULD BE PROUD OF YOUR DAUGHTER. :) She's now a woman. :)))

And yes, we can't imagine that this is really is it! CAN I JUST SAY "I DIDN'T SEE IT COMING!!  haha. The day has yet to come! As her cousin/friend/sister... We're really proud of her. Sad but Happy. Sad, because she's now a wife... She just turned to be matured enough for such things, we can't do the things that we happened to do when she was still SINGLE. She has the now more priorities than before. HAPPY because, she's now a woman with responsibilities... the beginning of real life, a life with her right man for the rest of her life. I know that someday, you"ll be having your own family, I mean a life with RUMESH AND WITH YOUR CHILDREN. I'm looking forward to it. :) 

BLESSED! :) 

Just keep Loving and Caring for each other. I hope your relationship would be as sticky as *kakanin* hahaha! 

In behalf of MAGBOO FAMILY... We're Hoping that you'll become a better person, a loving wife... and soon, as a loving and caring mother. We wish you much happiness.I know that you and rumesh are really meant for each other. NATIONALITY DOESN'T MATTER. OR SHOULD I SAY COLOR DOESN'T MATTER! *peace haha* But seriously, I'm really happy for you!!! Just stay pretty and cute like me forever ok! :) RUMESH IS SUCH A LUCKY GUY. He's lucky for having you, and i know that you're lucky too for having him! :) Take good care of each other ok! Just enjoy life.Always give love to each other, with lots of laughter and fun! ok? LOVE LOVE LOVE! 

all i can say is... " OMG. I'M SERIOUS!" :)

La Famille MAGBOO '11

"A lovely thing about Christmas is that it's compulsory, like a thunderstorm, and we all go through it together."
Garrison Keillor

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

Meet the FAMILY!

We're on our 4th year of Celebrating CHRISTMAS together.

We started this idea/party last 2008. Since then, we did this as a "tradition" or should i say " reunion?" whatever! haha.

Isn't it obvious that we've improved a lot? haha. from house ,to food, to outfit ,to LOOKS and to CAMERA? :)) The evolution was really perceptible.

I can say that this year's party was not really vivacious or should i say "a bit boring" ooppss. This is based on my own observation. WHY? because unlike our past years, we had EXCHANGE GIFTS which is the main event or moment of the party ,but I understand their reasons behind why we didn't have that this year! Then we have not even played GAMES that night, actually the only game that was prepared by tita Mary was PINOY HENYO! :)) what happened? Are we starting to be KJ's?? LOL peace. *guys, don't take it seriously, I'm just being honest , I know you indeed felt the same way :))

YOUR THE MEN! :) Tito Doc, Lolo and Tito Capt.

ARE YOU HAPPY? :) Lolo, tita josie, papa, mama, tita elsa,tito pabs, tita mary

TRES MARIAS! Mama Lina, Tita Cora, Tita Elsa

But despite of that, I enjoyed it, hopefully others enjoyed it as well. GAMES and GIFT are not the essence of Christmas. IT'S THE LOVE THAT WE RECEIVED FROM OUR LOVED ONES (haha. just sayin' LOL) The presence of everyone is more important. OK , so SHALL I STOP WHINNING? haha. LET'S STAY HAPPY. PROUD TO BE MAGBOO. :)

The best of all gifts around any Christmas tree: the presence of a happy family all wrapped up in each other. ~Burton Hillis

RED MOTIF FOR THIS YEAR, whew. I just realized that RED is so refreshing on camera. VERY CLASSY! :)) *like it? haha (cheers)

Meet Tito CAPT. :) THANKS A LOT.

Gentlemen, meet the PRETTY FACES ! :)) Picture addict! As we had no choice but to strike pose!

Introducing. DADDY COOL. meet our very own GRANDFATHER! well, isn't it obvious that he's a certified picture addict as well? :)) nice one!

TO THOSE WHO ARE NOT HERE,

Though you're far away from home *parang kanta lang?* :)) , we can feel you're presence, distance isn't a hindrance for such things. :) You're SPIRIT,phone calls and FACEBOOK is enough :)

Perhaps, I have said all I wanna say. :) I hope you like it. :) From the bottom of my heart ! hoho

--May the miracle of Christmas fill your heart with warmth and love.
Christmas is the time of giving and sharing.
It is the time of loving and forgiving.
Merry Christmas to Everyone--

It's our 2nd anniversary- GROUP 55

__________Group 55__________

Celebrating our Group/Friendship Anniversary every 14th of October.

I can say that this year was just a matter of BALANCE, or should i say UPs and DOWNs. Ye, you read it right. There's no perfect thing, relationship and even life. Do you agree? Yes. In our case, we tend to have some quarrels, as in. We know it's normal but this year was so so weird. As far as i can remember, we mutually harbored resentment for about 1 month? 2 months? Why? Because our group was divided into two groups, the first half (Tine, Anna, Rose Anne, Gerald, Ziq and yours Truly),and the second half (Audri, Francis, Gelli, Anne and Ruth). Since then, we had a lot of conflicts regarding about duty, "GALA" and most especially about attitudes. Well it's because we are accustomed with each other (separate groups huh). We, especially ME, don't even talk with my other group mates because of some matters. It's better not to speak up. But hey! we just realized that we're GROUP! we were made to be ONE! We fixed those problems, right time, mood and right place is all we need. i know you guys experienced same thing? But of course happy moments really stand out! :) LOVE. LOVE. LOVE

We celebrated VALENTINE'S DAY. We're just so happy because of what our boys did. We're so surprise! swear. hm? ya, though we already knew that this was gonna happened! It's the memory and effort that counts. (:

--THE GIRLALOO OF GROUP 55 anne wong and ruth was missing??? This year, we had a very memorable duty, as i said on my past blog! i was all our first time! HAHA! *evil laugh*

RUBY 1,2,3,4 with ALEJANDRO? haha. since we're bored and even know what to do! hell.! picture-picture! :) i looove it. I told them to put on my red lipstick! :)

Duty,food trip, hanging out with the whole group after duty (especially the heart to heart talk at padis! cheers!), overnight staying, sharing of thoughts, everything! It all happened. Oh before i forgot, OUR CHRISTMAS PARTY was the 2nd most memorable of all, all wishes was fully granted!

and the MOST MOST MEMORABLE OF ALL, we all graduated with flying colors. We're so proud of ourselves. and lastly i just wanna take this opportunity to CONGRATULATE them for PASSING THE NURSING BOARD EXAM. :) Ruth and I are next! :).

Though Audri and Tine are even far from us, It's not a hindrance to our friendship. Distance isn't a burden! They are just a FACEBOOK away! HAHA! I know that we can still be with each other soon.

I miss you so much group mates. And i so love you. Isn't it obvious? majority of my blogs are about you guys!

GET TOGETHER AFTER A LONG PERIOD OF TIME!

After the release of Board Exam Results, ORIGKADAS planned to go out and chill somewhere.Since I'm not a fan of STARBUCKS, I keep on searching a nice, different and very relaxing place for us.Then one time my BBM friend uploaded a photos , being *stalker*,i stalked her profile then i saw that cute cafe which is NORITER cafe, manila. It's a nice place promise.(as what i've seen huh)

especially for BARDAKAS. swear. the food.ambiance and the like. :) perfect place..

when you came in .You can see this cute cups at the left part of the cafe.You can write or draw anything in this cups, you can express your feelings as well.But we didn't try it. It's not our priority! haha. We're more on the foods and chikas! :) But I recommend you to go at NORITER along College of Saint Benilde. :) You must try their best seller dessert which is HONEY BREAD. It's so perfect! haha!

MOVING On.

We're just so happy that day. Too much stories about board exams,Love life and other people(haha) I really missed those laughters. Laughing and listening to each chizumms was a blast. Though we're not complete because KARLA is in CHICAGO already, then CAROL is so KJ (haha) and MARK? i don't know know where was he that time! He don't even texted us! urgh? (peace.=)) We're still happy. There's still NEXT TIME!! (kuha mo?)

We took a lot of pictures. As in. :)) We don't even care if we are noisy! This is a FREE COUNTRY! (what?) =)

After Noriter. Actually, rona and i are about to go home but Eunice told us that we're so KJ! haha. So, we went to LUNETA around 7pm i think. WALK.WALK.WALK.It was our first time.And we're so amazed.. especially me! LOL . When i saw that fountain with lights ( i don't know !!!) very relaxing. We went through the PAID PARK! :))) . we just seated there,PICTURE.PICTURE! and uh. "i wanna go home! i'm so tired. " it's already 9pm!!! hahaha!
