On May 12, 2005, my brother and I celebrated late mother’s day with of course, my mommy! Hunbun and my aunt were there too. We ate at my favorite Korean resturant, Kaya, in Podium. “Gahm-sah-hahm-ni-da” (thank you) to the incredibly wonderful staff there. We then window shopped a little and ended up in Living Well - which apparently is the local version of Crate & Barrel. With the a little coercing from me, my brother and I bought pristine white Sleepcare anti-allergy, anti-bacterial pillow and comforter. I’ve been wanting those for a while now since I’m incredibly sensitive to dust mites and the like.

The next day was Friday the 13th and au contraire to most, I had a wonderful day! That afternoon about 4pm, Dianne and I met up at Rizal Library. We went to Mag:Net to check out their beautiful ethnic-inspired earrings and spend time catching up on each other’s lives at the upstairs cafe. We split an overpriced salad and I ordered fresh mango shake. After a lot of girl talk, Dianne noticed Jessica Zafra, her writing inspiration. Coincidentally, Jessica Zafra was having a Tw7sted book signing there. *lol* Dianne bought one and had it autographed. We then passed by Rustan’s Supermarket and waited for our ride in her nearby dormitory. Hunbun and his cousin fetched us there at around 7:30pm. All four of us headed to Eastwood, met up with hunbun’s childhood friend, had dinner at Ebisu, and watched In Good Company. The movie was so-so and it left me really hanging with the ending. But all in all, I had a great time! It was fun mixing girl’s night out and boy’s night out.

The boys slept over at hunbun’s house so understandably hunbun fetched me a wee bit late. Actually, a lot late! We had a dentist’s appointment and since I have very chapped lips, my dentist gave me a little pot of cocoa butter lip balm. It smells incredibly yummy - I just had to share that! *lol* Afterwards, I had lunch at QC with the boys. Hunbun and I had a little alone time finally and stayed at his house for a while. We ended up having a nap there. *awww*

I had no classes on May 19, 2005 since I got an A-exemption in FIS. That was certainly an unexpected surprise! Friday the 20th was my father’s 8th death anniversary. I accompanied my brother and mom to the temple. We brought along some food offerings, lit incense, and send our loving prayers. I hope he is happy in the afterlife… Then, my brother and I passed by the bank to settle some bank matters. *hehe* He also drove me to JV’s house where our SA21 group was meeting for the ethnography final project.

On May 21, 2005, I had brunch with Jen and Steph at Heaven And Eggs, a new country restaurant with an angel motif which i love! And the servers all have little tranlucent wings. We haven’t met for at least a year since the debut season ended. It was great to have girl time with high school friends. Too bad Vassy wasn’t there. I’m feeling a bit sentimental about high school right now. *sigh* Anyway, hunbun and I arrived at JV’s house again at 2pm. I worked on the project while he enjoyed the “guy game room” at the attic. We finally finished that project yesterday - May 24, 2005. And I’m finally starting summer vacation part 2!

Lounging at home sounds sooo good!
