easter weekend

i just spent 20 minutes editing the collage i wanted to post for my easter weekend...until i pressed the back button and lost it all...
ARGH!

i can't get the hang of this...anyway, photos in chronological order, kind of

 

 So this kinda captures the moments. I went on Friday to the Scala Santa. Saturday was walking around Rome at night, ending up with the most amazing ice cream. Sunday was a simple mass. Monday was a crazy day with Ciccio and friends, highlighted by his Bat fried. Old MacDonald and family invited us to the farm, and the vets and the surfer came as well. We had lots of great food, kite flying experience, ping pong matches and learning how to shoot some pool!

:D

and back again

just wanted to write this quickly before I succumb to the headache that is bothering me.
Sinigang na baboy, beef with ampalaya and alimasag..its official...im finally home

i so love philippine FAST FOOD home delivery service. indulging in all your cravings couldn't be easier...and lazier! i wish i could just stay here..... life here is easy when it comes to food....

*sigh*

tonight: giving into the craving of KFC! got a 6 pc hot and crispy with mashed potato and 2 large gravy! bwahahahaha...

today was very particular and it will most likely set the trend of my stay. I've been enrolled into the gym.
*sigh*

then i want to drive around as i don't know where most places are anymore. so many things have changed (in BF alone!) and the roads i used to know. if i'm gonna go out and meet people, i guess i have to know how to get there. I can't keep dragging my mom with me.

Easter 2012

This year, I had Easter with Weng, her family and Bubbles and her family.

L-R: Fabio, Weng, Bubbles, Jarie and Baby GMP

I've taken a shot of the table before we started wolfing the food down. But it doesn't do it any justice. You have to check out Weng's post for the event.

Lunch - appetizers. This is how Italians typically celebrate Easter Monday

Weng and Pochahontas (ignore the big belly)

moment

took my baby bro to the airport.... and i was dreading it.
Admittedly, I didn't get to spend as much time with him as I would have wanted but, I got to spend some time with him and that was amazing enough.
He met Boo and Sis and he was great to have around. We laughed over all our misadventures and even though I'm flat out broke this time, I don't mind it as much. I was happy to spend for him.

Listening to Adele, while driving away from the airport with tears in your eyes is not fun.
Adele's cover of "Lovesong" was playing as I turned the curb and he disappeared inside.

*sigh* I'm going to miss Ralph.

living with mom

means having breakfast ready, when I wake up and need to go to the office! no need to wonder why i'm gaining weight...

Merry Christmas!

Happy Easter!

Does anyone remember how we Filipinos celebrate the Resurrection? Holy Week is normally made up of suffering, suffering and more suffering. We don't even Celebrate much the Sunday, the Lord's Resurrection when that's the whole point of Lent. We were saved.

Anyway, I spent this Resurrection with Leo. We had gone to the Orthodox Church in Rome.

Made me almost guilty for not going to the Catholic one.

We were early and walked around the Roman Forum taking night shots.

This was Saturday night. At Midnight, the ceremony had started and we stayed 10 minutes. We went home and broke open the egg! :D

Sunday, we went out to have lunch and looked for houses. Since my mouth wasn't doing much better, Leo preferred that we take things easy. So we went home and watched Priceless.

Easter Sunday was nice just being with Leo. Easter Monday saw a gloomy Rome. Probably because I had to take Leo to the airport at 5.30am! I spent most of my day, blogging, updating my excel spreadsheet, catching up on FB and throwing in one batch of laundry.

Enough. Must do homework.

Now.
