As usual, cramming ako so I did a lot of last minute shopping an grocery for tom hehe

Tom we decided for dinner, chicken wings, molo and sana Salad.. kaya nabili ako ibat ibang gulay 😉 Buti na lang hanggang 10pm ang SM Makati kaya may goto grocery na ako bago umuwi anyday..

Excited to see you tom again.. still praying mapanaginipan ko kayo so we can have that decent conversation ☺

Alam na saan nagmana hehe.. see yah Dad!

Hi Dad, i visited my first hub in Gen Trias.. kung buhay pa kayo mapapagusapan natin nasan ito hehe, pero alam ko nakasubaybay naman kayo :)

As usual late ako sa meeting time namin haha oh well buti a few min lang haha

Sa afternoon sa Lazada WH naman kami. First time to visit the Lazada Cabuyao WH, we definitely need to wear mask kasi maalikabok pa.. grabe yung daan delikado dahil nagliliparan pa ang abo... delikado rin kasi baka pumasok sa sasakyan.. matagala pang mararamdaman after effects ng Taal eruption 😑

Hey Dad! It's another Monday.. madness hindi dahil traffic kung hindi dahil mag rerecover pa mga tao after initial eruption of Taal. No work for those near areas, for NCR maraming nag work from home kaya walang traffic.. hindi maganda air quality ngayon so need mag mask. Dapat daw n95 to filter fine particles na hindi kaya ng surgical mask na lagi nating gamit.

Pero saw in the internet a hack to mimic n95 filtration using just our normal mask pkus 2 sheets of tissue.. and thanks to you, marami pa kaming supply for both 💪🤣 haay, talagang inaalagan niyo pa rin kami lagi, Love you Dad! To the moon and back!

DAD!!!! Mt Taal erupted this afternoon.. a shocker to most but apparently Level 1 alert has been raised for more than 2 years. It's just that it escalated quickly to Level 3 then 4.

Nagkaubusan ng mask in almost all stores, pati sa mumuso.. medyo mahihirapan kayo kung nandito kayo kasi madumi air quality, there's fine particles in the air coming from the ashes that Mt Taal spouted. Kawawa yung mga malaalapit sa Mt Taal, para yung nangyari sa Mt Pinatubo... pati Tagaytay nagiba ng itsura..

Hopefully humupa si Taal, but for now need to be vigilant and prepared. We will stay safe here don't worry.. kayo ingat din dyan 😊

Hi Dad, late naako umuwi today, 4am hahaha, had fun playing Switch with Marx, Andy and Richie. 10 yers ago, if hindi ako nag message sa inyo, hindi siguro makakatulog si Ma hehehe, ngayon sanay na siya :) and ofcourse pre occupied siya kay Saoirse and with missing you 😊

Full moon pala today.. took this shot outside McDonald's Tiendesitas while waiting for my Grab... bigla ko lang kayo naalala dito.. wishing this fullmoon with pronounced rings have some magical powers to enable to talk to you again.. wishful thingking, but quite hopeful 😅

Luluwas pala sila Ma today, magaayos kami ng prices ng resibo hehe.. Matagal na nga itong natambak sakin kaya need ko na gawin :) Sige Dad, gabayan niyo kami lagi :)

See Yah!

Another weekend, and the next will be your 40th day 😔

Adulting kami ni Marky this weekend.. nagpalit kami ng grease trap dahil may butas na yung dati. Si Marky ang nag prepare halos lahat Dad, you'll be proud of him.. unti unti he's maturing haha

Also today Andy and Richie invited me to have dinner in Andy's condo.. spend some time and catch up.. Marx was also there and we ate Chinese food hahaha Sincerity!!!!

In succeeding posts will upload our Just Dance video.. masaya siya Dad, naisip ko pwede excercise ni Ma at syempre sasabayan ni Ahia at Saoirse.. kailangan lang bumili ng switch hehe

Ofcourse chicken, kiampong 😍, oysyer omelette (surprisingly good) and Crab Foo yong (malasa naman, slightly salty).. masarap pa rin kahit malamig.. comfort chinese food haha

Hope you're also having fun there 😊 love you Dad!

Hi Dad, another late post haha.. sorry it took a while, got loaded at "work" 🤣

Hell day Friday pala mag commute esp rush hour. First time ko na try mag commute from Magallanes to BGC and super haba ng pila sa MRT, hanggang kalsada 😭 oh well.. since may dinner kami ni Angkong, at ako ang nagyaya, had to find a way.. Nauuso na dito ang motor-taxi.. may Angkas, Joyride and Move It. Ifiirst tried the former bigger 2 to no avail kaya i also tried the smaller Move It. Luckily dito pa ako nakabook pero 1 hr late pa rin ako sa dinner haha

Pinatikim ko kay Angkong ang Kichitora for 3 reasons hehe.. 1) Zomato gold so b1t1, alam mo namang kuripot ako haha.. 2) Sila lang alam ko na may TanMen, makita niyo sa video parang lighter/healthier Ramen.. 3) Gusto daw mag try ni Angkong ibat ibang Ramen shop and hindi pa nila ito na try..

Ang verdict ni Angkong... "ok naman", at kung babalik pa siya.. "maybe" daw 🤣 syempre Yushoken parin :)) dahil yan sa impluwensya niyo.. mag-ama nga kayo haha

Happy Weekend Dad! We miss you a lot esp Mom, she's been counting the days.. your 40th day is nearing, madami kaming i prepare haha.. See yah!!!!

Hey Dad, today past 9pm na ako nakauwi from office. Perhaps today is my most productive day yet.. to many more hehe. Late ako nakauwi kasi ang bagal ng laptop ni Ma 🤣 kailangan na mag invest ng bago.

Sarap talaga ng feeling na bago ka umuwi, nagawa mo na lahat ng urgent. Hopefully this is a start of my improvement, bawasan na ang procrastination hehe

Naglakad lang din ako office to mrt magallanes, kaya naman, around 5min chill walk :) So ang gastos lang is Mrt to Ayala then bus to Market Market. So far ok naman ang commute, esp pag late na, safe naman at mabilis haha

Will definitely strive hard to make you prouder 😊😌🥳 Miss yah!

DAD!!! Gisingin niyo ako sa umaga hahaha for the past days I've been arriving in the office past 10am.. though we're allowed, i want to arrive preferably 9:30am latest haha. Napapasarap tulog ko, hindi ko naman kayo napapanaginipan hehe... sana kung nandun kayo, well siguro nga kaya gusto ko pa itulog 😅

Again.. not a day goes by that I don't miss you.. a lot of stories I want to tell you. One of those is about a resigned employee who came back to turnover some details with me as I'm absorbing some of his prev tasks. I asked him what he will be doing next and sabi niya Fam business. Naturally i would then ask what.. sabi niya Agri.. agriculture, but it doesn't stop there 🤣.. real estate, tourism aka resort etc.. bigatin hahaha. I remembered na kung ikaw nandun, for sure na tanong mo na lahat ng detalye 💪🥳

Ayun muna for today! See yah!

Hi Dad, commuting is really time consuming but I'm still thankful mine is relatively short. Swerte ako na sa Ayala MRT ako nababa at hindi dito sasakay.. mahaba pila for sure lagi dito like what you see in the pictures. Good thing though that Filipinos are starting to learn how to line properly hehe.. hope this discipline continues to grow in all of us👍

It's been 30 days that we're not with you.. hope you're doing great there! Sorry hindi ako lagi nakakapunta sa puntod niyo.. def will visit soon :)

Sana Dad magpakita kayo sa panaginip ko :) esp kay Ma, one more time hope we cam spend a momment with you 😊 Looking forward to that!

Hey Dad, I tried a different route going home..

- Jeep to Gate 3 (Lawton)

- Jeep to Market

Atleast may options hindi lang mrt and bus. Cheaper ito since 18 pesos in total yun lang mas prone to traffic and mainit 🤣

Ito pala yung pila sa Gate 3. Past 9pm already so kahit may line, mabilis naman dahil maraming jeep.

Nakakamiss din palang maglakad lang pauwi hahaha, pero ok na rin ito parang additional excercise. Sana lang hindi mas humaba pila sa jeep or mrt.. well malalamaan ko throughout the months.

Wish me luck! Gisingin niyo pa rin ako ng maaga parati hehe.

Hi Dad.. It's the first sunday of the year and Ma, Saoirse and myself attended our usual afternoon sched in Aglipay. Again I prayed for the peaceful passing of your soul then the safety and better health for our family. More 'importantly'.. hopefully the family, especially Mom, can see you one last time.. even in our dreams. A chance to hold you, kiss you, hug you and say our good byes 😔. I know Mom is fairing better now but this would help her to 'let go' of her emotions... I don't want to say m*ve *n 😅.

This Sunday was rather ordinary but a bit productive. Saoirse is a bit cheeky today.. to smart for her age. I tried to teach her a lesson on patience but to no avail.. i need to learn more how to communicate with toddlers 😆 Tungkol naman sa PrintHaus, I was able to start pricing, but will finish it on Monday.. Promise!

Napaguspaan din namin ang budgeting and the need for us to be self sustaining. A lot of work is needed but excited for all initial plans. I know you'll be guiding us, esp Mom.. ito na yung chance na maging proud siya sa sarili niya like what we talked about. Naging emotional si Ma, but after naging ok naman.. we believe in her.

Also past midnight napagusapan lang ulit namin nila Ma and Ahia regarding your last few moments in the hospital.. still sucks i wasn't there but hearing their stories helps relieve that pain.. somehow hearing their cherished moments with you helps me remember all your quirks. How i wish i can converse with you one last time... miss you Dad!

Hi Dad! May bagong P2P bus route na, SM Calamba to Market Market and vice versa. I tried it today going home to Sta Cruz. Faare is 150, then the other bus from SM Calamba to Sta Cruz is 62 so total is 212. This is still cheaper than getting a Grab to Buendia then taking the bus there, I save on time and money hehe

Bus is operated by St Rose.. apparently they are still operating. Hopefully no more accidents 😬🤣. Seats were refurbished and clean, there's even a USB charging port. Only catch is there's only limited departure time. This might be my go to route going home.

See yah!

Hey Dad! I just finished my first work week. Medyo chill day coz we only did some On-boarding sessions. Plus we had a 2.5hr lunch with the CEO and CTO 😂 Pretty hip and cool dudes for their age 🤣 #goals

We ate at the Royal Indian Curry House in Makati Ave and the picture is a selfie by the CEO inside the van we rode going to the resto. We passed through Dasma Village and Forbes Park para iwas traffic. Houses were mix of old and new designs.. lot of uber rich peeps. Not part of my goals hahaha

Excited to contribute to this company.. sayang hindi ko na makukwento sa inyo harap harapan, but will keep you updated here. Plus I know nandyan lang kayo, guiding us 😊

Happy Weekend to us!
