Dig Up A Hole

... and hide.  That's what I want to do, right now. I committed a major booboo.  I accidentally handed my husband's travel bag as a gift to my Tita.   It was packaged the same way.  So when I grabbed it from under the tree, I thought it was the right gift bag.  No wonder, I still have the gift I intended to give my Tita.  I kept on wondering what I gave her since she thanked me for such a nice gift.  When I figured it out, I called up my cousin about it.  Today, I will replace it with another bag.  I would have let it go, if the bag weren't so special.  Mapapamahal pa ko, because of my boo-boo. On hindisight, di ba siya nagtaka na may price pa and it was just in the store's paper bag? Still, it was my fault, my booboo. If you were in my place, what would you do? 

Javi and His Two Front Teeth

You heard the gist here . What happens next? I am actually undecided and uncertain. I consulted a dentist-friend due to the urgency of the situation. She advised giving paracetamol and antibiotics. She also doesn't recommend extracting the theeth. The following day, we went to a pedia-dentist. She recommended the same meds but she gave me two options. First is the cheaper solution: Extraction. Second: Root Canal and Crowning. The first option is the quickest way to relieve the pain. He will be given an oral sedative so the dentist can perform the extraction. He will only be groggy not totally asleep. The downside is he will be toothless till he turns 7. I hope it doesn't foster insecurity. Another downside is it seffect on the growth of the permanent teeth. The second option would entail several procedures. Though the procedures will attempt to save the teeth, it is obviously the more expensive option. Let's just say that I can already purchase an LV Damier...

The Highs and Lows of Last Week

Even though I don't have work to keep me on a schedule, I was on-the-go almost everyday of last week. There were lots of commitments concerning the THREE Festival and the joint celebration of last Saturday. Here are the highlights of the week: Johann's school party. We were supposed to celebrate with his classmates on the day before his birthday. However, he got sick. So, I cancelled my arrangements and moved the celebration to the following school day. Last Monday, I brought homemade cupcakes (Martha Stewart's choco chip cupcake with chocolate ganache ) and pancakes for the class' recess. I failed to document the simple celebration because I forgot to bring a camera with me. Apparently, there was one waiting for me in the backseat. Darn! Gram's Diner. I tried it and I wasn't disappointed. The whopper malt and the philly cheese steak were very good. I think I'll try it out with Vic next time we're in the area. Parallel parking. I rarely pa...

Insider Information

I was in Ateneo the day after the tragic incident in AGS. I noticed extra security upon entering the campus even at 7:30 in the evening. They were extra strict that night. Since we had no immediate singing engagment to prepare for, everyone was busy chitchatting. We were trying to get information our insiders. Insider 1 was bombarded by media-related requests the whole day. The big networks wanted to get into the campus to get insider information. Apparently, one sneaked in after saying that they'd be covering a football game. Hay. The victim's family didn't want to expose the incident to the media. Ateneo was trying to protect both families since both belong to the Ateneo community. Also according to Insider 1, the victim's body had to be recovered beneath the van. As for the other victim, the yaya, it seems that her leg would have to be amputated. Insider 2, on the other hand, would rather not say anything about the situation. She'd rather wait for ...
