been a stressful week

I’ve been frequenting to the hospital these past two weeks. My sister suffered from HADD (hydroxyapatite deposition disease) – a disorder characterized by calcium deposit within the tendons of the rotator cuff. Given that situation, I had to accompany her all through out her visits to the hospital for check ups.

My tolerance when it comes to places like hospitals is really poor. I hate the ambiance and looking at different sick people makes me feel crazy too at times.

I must admit I felt really nervous looking at my sister’s condition at first. With her left arm frozen, her back all numb, I could have thought she is going disabled already. But I had to stay positive for her.

Thankfully, the laboratory test results requested to her turned out all normal and what she had to go through with her left arm is nothing serious and will heal in time.

At this moment, she’s already  in improved condition and is looking forward to go back to work again hopefully by Monday next week.

Mellow Yellow Monday #3 the street dancers

The street dancers on their brightly colored costumes – a combination of red, blue, pink and the brightest of them all, yellow.

They are one of the group participants for “indak-indak sa kadalanan” street dancing competition during the recently concluded Kadayawan sa Davao Festival.

Marvelous, isn’t it?

the most awaited box for the month has landed

I’ve been hoping to get hold of this box last Friday. I had a hunch it’s in the post office already. But I had to go to Davao, Thursday through Saturday so I asked my sister, Thea to pick it up for me however I forgot to leave her a note authorizing her to do so.  So I had to wait again till I come back to personally get it. I came home Sunday and picked it Monday.

So this is what… the 6th box for the year? Yep, I think so…  and to whom else will it come from than my avid fan and the most thoughtful man alive I know.

This is actually the standard bearer of this box… a genuine Microsoft Operating System. Now, I no longer have to suffer and worry about my computer crashing plus it will sure help me a lot while learning to do computer reformatting on my own.

But of course JK (the sender) felt it too unreasonable to place only a single item in this $56 worth flat rate box so he fill it with some other stuffs like what you see in the following pics below.

my niece’s were too quick to grind  a few packs of these chocolates before I could even take a picture of them all so no wonder why the rest are missing here :)

now this is a bunch of flavored rice… gotta share some to others

in preparation for the much awaited island getaway soon, LOL!

Oh and I also got a racer back yellow top. That’s supposed to be my next entry for the Mellow Yellow Monday meme but I forgot to take a picture of it… so sloppy me! Oh well, I still can do that later.

Ciao for now! Enjoy the rest of your weekend! :D

bonded with friends @ the Kadayawan Festival 2010 in Davao City

As planned, I really made it to the 25th Kadayawan Festival celebration in Davao. Thanks to my friend/former office mate, Anne for the warm welcome and for letting me stay to her humble place while waiting for the grand and festive Kadayawan day!

On Saturday morning, we (Anne, her house help, Jubix as she fondly called her and I) arrived at the scene a little late but that didn’t stop us from having fun while stealing a pose with some of the street dancers especially the so adorable little performers you will see in the pictures below…
