GEP Seminar and Survey

This was taken after our Admin meeting with other Church Leaders and their core groups.This was in Greenfield District.

it's Christmas time in the city

with my new niece Angel

So my visit to my family every month has continued because I have been constantly going to and from Manila this year!After a few weeks my infant niece has become bigger and heavier to carry!very cute!Me and Jesse stayed at my mom's home and watched Kalye Serye.

Answering survey 

Come Sunday morning we rushed to QC to attend their Sunday Service and we just made it on time!I'm not used to the Manila traffic and long hours of travel just to get to one place.We saw married couples from our batch- Jen&Arnel,Jing&Andy,Tess & Benjie ,even Ruchelle and Alvin.I met Ate Meanne and her sister Ate Lalin and kids.I also met Hilde and her bf Patrick.I even had a short chat with Minky.I'm glad to see people still serving in the ushering ministry after all these years!Right after the Worship service, we ate lunch with Lorna,M-Beth and Mary Ann at GateWay Mall.I haven't been there for years.

MLCC with John Luis

After lunch, we headed straight to the venue -AFP Theater Camp Aguinaldo- of the Good Enough Parenting seminar sponsored by HOPE Worldwide Philippines.We answered a survey with about 400 items!And we were advised to use the first thing that comes to mind so we don't have to spend too much time on it.So ,I'm glad I finished it.It was just distracting because the place was hot ,maybe because it was really full of people.

Me and Jesse will be back soon for the Holidays!I hope I can talk to my good friends and even former classmates again.

nth Birthday 2015 in two lovely places

This year ,my younger sister gave birth to a baby girl on the 4th.After going to church, I rushed to Manila  (to think that I'm still recovering from tooth extraction and I read that I had to limit my activities).

She stayed in the delivery room for a day because there wasn't any available rooms yet.Me and mom thought it was better that way because my sister just had a C-Section so there were many tubes connected to her and she won't be able to rest well in the ward with the baby crying a lot.She was finally transferred to the ward in the afternoon while I was having a class in the waiting area with my student.

My mom was frantically moving our things from the waiting area to the room my sister was just assigned to.In the process, she unwittingly took away my wi-fi device so I lost my connection in the middle of my class.The next day, I had to cancel all my other classes because there were so many people in the ward and it was so noisy.I think it is a very busy hospital.

I was awake in the wee hours of the morning to look after the tiny baby. There were chairs in the area so you can sit and watch.Babies were crying their hearts out in the middle of the night.And when one cries ,other's follows suit.I just wished I had brought a book.
