    “SUNDAY HEYDAY”

    Posted by nona | Sunday Heyday | Monday 26 November 2007

    I mull sunday as my glory day! This is the only day of the week when I could possibly do my things-to-do list like….

    housekeeping, laundry, marketing, ironing ngekk! (naglista pa raw :) )

    Sunday is our breaker from a six (6) days run-of-the-mill runs in at work, ‘though we normally get back home @ 5:00 0′clock , nakakatamad nang lumabas ‘coz it’s already quite dark here and it’s freezing cold outside.

    We’d usually spend our weekend meandering, mall hopping or just simply sight seeing. Walang church dito kaya hindi kami nakakapagsimba.

    How about you guys, how do you spend your weekend?

    Happy monday! :)

    “HOME SWEET HOME”!

    Posted by nona | family, message | Thursday 15 November 2007

     Ang ganda ng umaga, ang aliwalas ng pakiramdam ko. Naisipan kong maglakad lakad sa bakuran. Wala pa ring ipinagbago ang kinalakhan kong lugar, this is the same place I used to lived during my childhood days! Malawak na bakuran, maraming punong kahoy…may guyabano, papaya, bayabas, ang mga nakahilerang puno ng malunggay sa tabi ng bakod…ang punong santol na may duyan sa ilalim at nakatapat sa balkonahe namin at ang mga alagang manok ni Tatay. Simula nang magretire siya sa pagsusundalo, pag aalaga  ng mga sasabunging manok ang naging libangan niya.

    Nagkalat ang mga tuyong dahon sa paligid, tila matagal nang hindi nagwawalis si manong Caloy. Sa bandang kaliwa ng bakuran, ang lumang sinehan na may kung ilang dekada nang nakatayo doon, at may 26 na taon nang hindi nagpapalabas ng pelikula dahil sa kalumaan.

    Napabuntunghininga ako sa galak nang matanaw ko ang aming punong mangga. Nakasayad pa rin ang ibang sanga nito sa bubong ng bahay namin. Mayroon kaming daan sa loob ng bahay paakyat sa bubong. Naalaala ko noong bata pa ako, madalas kaming magpalipas ng oras doon kasama ang kapatid ko at ilang kaibigan, may dala dala kaming kutsilyo, pinggan at asin…namimitas kami ng manggang hilaw at doon na rin namin kinakain habang pinagmamasdan at hinuhulaan ang iba’t ibang hugis ng ulap.

    Natanaw ko si tatay na nakatayo sa ilalim niyon, suot ang paborito niyang asul na shorts at kamisa-tsino. Tingin ko’y bumata si ‘tay, palibhasa’y dating sundalo kaya matikas pa rin ang pangangatawan ngunit bakas pa rin ang pagod na niyang mukha. Nakangiti siya sa akin, tinanong niya ako “saan ka pupunta“? sagot ko’y “dito lang po namamasyal lang“. Sabi niya na tila naglalambing sa musmos “kiss mo muna ako“! Natawa ako, ganoon kasi siya sa amin kapag may inuungot at hinihingi kami sa kanya. Humalik ako sa pisngi niya, naramdaman ko ang mainit niyang hininga na tumama sa pisngi ko…at bigla akong nagising!

    Nanatili akong nakahiga, tumutulo na pala ang luha ko…namimiss ko na si tatay, ang aking taga-ponytail ng buhok, ang loyal fans ko at taga palakpak sa tuwing magrerecite ako ng poem. Ipinagtitimpla ako ng gatas sa tuwing inaabot ako ng madaling araw sa paggawa ng mga plates sa architecture noong ako’y nasa college…matiyagang nag-aabang sa kanto kapag inaabot ako ng gabi mula sa eskwelahan. sa tuwing magbabakasyon kami ng pilipinas nakahanda na ang mga kakataying native na manok para sa paborito kong adobo-ala-tatay na siya mismo ang magluluto, at una pang natataranta kapag nagkakasakit ang mga anak ko. Ang tatay na hinintay lang ang pagdating ko saka siya umalis.

    Ipinaalala lang siguro niya sa akin, ngayong araw ang kanyang ika-siyam na taon. Rest and peace po ‘tay, mahal na mahal ko kayo.

    “FESTIVALS”

    Posted by nona | Ocassion...random thoughts..etc... | Friday 9 November 2007

    First, I would like to thanked Ghee, the original COOL MOM for passing this award to me…at least for her, I’m cool! ;-)

    I’m still overhauling my site up to this time, updating my links, etc…etc…kaya lang hindi ko siya matapos tapos in a snap, sa office lang ako madalas nakakapag-online wala pa akong internet access sa apartment, you know…limited lang ang pagba blog *kahiya kaya* katapat ko pa naman ang room ng boss ko…hmm, maybe they sense something kaya doon nila ako inilagay hehe..

    Puro kuwento muna ang mga post ko ngayon, madalian lang para at least kapag napadalaw kayo meron naman kayong mabasa.

    I observed different festival before when I was playing “Harvest Moon” in playstation hehe, oops..*buking*

    Last month, China celebrates their “Mid-autumn festival” also known as mooncake festival. Our company treat us a sumptuous lunch and gave us few hundreds as an “angpao” (gift cash) hmm, not bad huh, namimigay pala sila ng pera …wish ko tuloy araw araw may festival har har!

    Mid-autumn is also the harvest season here, fruits were fresh and very cheap! I was thrilled when I saw plantation of apples, pears, peaches and grapes along the way when we attend a meeting in Yantai city. Gustong gusto ko nang bumaba para magpicture taking. Sabi ko nga sa company driver “pull over please, I’d like to take pictures for my blogsite”!  weeh! feeling…nasa isip ko lang iyan ‘no, hehe…behave na behave po ang inyong lingkod kasi kasama ko ang mga bossing. Ako pa naman ang thorn among the roses, baka sabihin nila pasaway ako.

    Look what I’ve got during the festivity…

    fruits…fruits…lots of fruit…

     Naintriga ako sa isang eto, they call it ZAO. Its scientific word is JUJUBE, I like the taste it’s sweet and crunchy. I even looked it up in Encarta. To share a few words…

    *The common jujube, or chinese date, native to warm regions of Eurasia, and the indian jujube, somewhat smaller in size and native to India, produce fruits that are dried as sweet meats. The common jujube is widely cultivated in China for its fruit and is grown as an ornamental plant in southwestern regions of the United States. The lotus tree is a north African species that produces a meaty fruit used to make cakes*

    This is the Oldest jujube tree, picture taken from Chinese traditional museum.

    Last Week, I received an email greetings from a local officemate. hindi ko nga lang maintindihan ‘coz it’s written in characters *helloo…excuse me po hindi po ako intsik* so i’d asked him to translate in english ” today is our double 9 day, it’s a special day for us, people will climb up to a hill or a mountain…it will make us feel good” ayun, binati ko siya ng happy double 9 day…tama ba? :-P he replied, “thank you, there are two sun shining on us, we are two happy people, and blah blah…” makata rin pala ang mga intsik.

    That’s all for now mga kafatids, thanks for reading…saranghameda bo!

    Maligayang pagbabalik!
