November 12, 2008.  Wednesday. I woke up with my whole body aching.  As if I had a strenuous workout the day before.  I was still exhilirated and at the same time, tired. What happened to me yesterday was just only sinking in today. I was just feeling it now.  And I allowed myself to cry out to God with thanksgiving.  Yes, I cried thanking God for what happened to me.  It was totally unbelievable! And it happened to me! -oOo- I took the day off from work, calling in sick.  Somebody told me that my episode would air either this Friday (Nov. 14) or on Monday (Nov. 17).  It aired on Monday.  (Please see my previous entry, And On With the Show ). -oOo- Your grace is sufficient for me.  Your strength is made perfect when I am weak.  All that I cling to, I lay at your feet.  You grace is sufficient for me.

It's the Spelling Bee for the 3rd Time

-
Yes, I saw The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee for the third time last night (Saturday, December 5, 2009)!  And with me was my best friend Ruel whom I was with the first time I watched the musical (the second time, I was with my officemate and her friends).  And what's the difference the third time around?  Well, I became part of the musical!  Yep, you read that right!  I was invited to be one of the guest spellers, along with another audience participant and two celebrities--Ana Capri and Toffee Calma (just in case you are wondering why they were there, Atlantis Productions was staging an adult version of The Bee that night).   So how did it all happen?  Ruel and I bought our tickets early... around 6pm.  And Hoagy (one of the production staff) ran after us when we were just about to go and have dinner.  She asked me if I'd be interested to be part of that night's program.  I told her that I have been thinking about it ...

Remembering Mama

It was May 10, 2003, Saturday, when my mama passed away. I remember the date so well because the following day was Mother's Day. A day that was special to me and mama.  I somehow always find a way to celebrate the occasion.  Like, I used to buy her a card when I was a little kid. Then when I can afford it, I treat her out. Or buy her favorite food. But on the eve of Mother's Day, five years ago, she left me without even saying goodbye.   I remember I went to the hospital that morning and stayed there to take care of my mom (it was my turn to do so). I think my Uncle Bine and I changed mama's diapers. Then my uncle went home to rest. I was left to watch over mama.  I remember cleaning her eyes again, putting eyedrops; I remember removing a strip of dried skin off her lips and applying Chapstick on it. I remember that this time around, her lips didn't make an "o" shape as if it were being applied on with lipstick. I remember think...
