2 weddings in a row.
A college friend, Rheena, last Jan 15 and my favorite cousin, Nandy, last Jan 22.
Nandy, my cousin, told me last year that he wants me to be his best man. I was never a best man before. I don’t know what to do and where am I needed. I just showed up there at the church, led the procession, brought the coins up at the altar during the ceremony and basically took away lots of behind-the-scene-moments pictures.
During the reception, I was called to give a speech for the couple. I didn’t write anything down eventhough Nandy texted me earlier to notify me. I just made some mental notes and I really have no idea what I was able to say that entire time. It was a blur. I do hope I can get a copy of their video.
Sad thing is Pen missed the wedding. Sayang talaga. Though it was nobody’s fault. Better to rest at home kaysa mabinat pa at lumala ang sakit.
A bit of trivia: Rheena’s bday was last Jan 14 while Nandy’s bday was last Jan 21. Both before the day of their weddings. 
Made my first major expense this year.
My officemate bought these dvds from the US and handed them to me this morning. Me and Pen bought the DVDs only and not the toys that came with them. The giftset are waaay too expensive compared to the ones we bought.
So we have the Green box for the Fellowship of the Ring, the Red box for the Two Towers and the Blue box for the Return of the King. 12 DVDs all in all!
Gotta make time to watch ‘em. 
Few hours to go before we bid farewell to year 2004. The last few days of the year is a shocker. FPJ died due to stroke (this is probably the first and last time I will be mentioning him in my blog), daughter of Joe de Venecia died because of fire in their house, and just recently (my birthday actually) a 9.0 earthquake hit the western asia causing tsunamis battering Sri Lanka, Thailand and Northern Indonesia. As of latest count, 60,000 people perished. I heard that the count may reach 400,000 according to estimates. And this early morning, stalls selling firecrackers at Bocaue, Bulacan were grazed with fire. Video captures from ABS-CBN’s helicopter showed houses storing the firecrackers exploding (just like your local action movies). What a way to leave 2004 huh?
What to expect with the year 2005? Just this January, 2 of our friends will be wed. Rheena and John with their theme wedding then my cousin Nandy and Cia where I will be his bestman. I hope Pen will be able to come to both weddings. She was just telling me earlier that she’s not fully recovered and there is a chance she might not yet go to work on Monday. 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Approximately 4 hours to go, here’s some gifs I will be leaving you guys..
Happy new year to all!
Buy ‘em while it lasts (and on sale!).
Got 2 more disney figures for Pen.
Both ToyTown and KidzStation at Glorietta are having their sale, I’m waiting for Toy Kingdom in SM to go on sale as they have 3-5 figures which are not in ToyTown and KidzStation.
I was not supposed to be there.
CDRKing was still closed so I thought to buy some time in ToyTown. And when I got there, a big ‘SALE’ poster was dangling outside the boutique. I went in and found that our Disney Magical Collections are on sale!
Originally priced 250 apiece, the sale price was just 150 pesos. That’s a hundred peso difference. Am sure Pen would love to be there.
Picked up a total of 8 pieces: 3 Caballeros - Donald, Panchito and Jose; B&W Mickey Mouse and Steamboat Pete; Minnie Mouse; 2 Kingdom Hearts Halloween Town Versions - Donald and Goofy.
Wow. Toy overload this Christmas. ü
Merry Christmas to myself. ü
My first DC action toy figure
SUPERMAN!
Got my gift cheques from office today! Woopee!
I can now buy Christmas goodies at SM! Now, if I only have time. Maybe I’ll just give it to Mom and let her take care of our stuffs.
I’m a good boy Santa.
…or is it unang gabi ng simbang gabi?.
Nope, wasn’t able to hear mass this early morning. I was spent last night from Math’s xmas party. I wasn’t drunk. Really. I just wanted to sleep a little bit longer.
Just like Jie, am beginning to feel the christmas season now. 
Official time-in today: 6:24am.
Earliest arrival here in office. I figured with the early time-in, I can escape early. Hehe.
Also, tonight is Math’s xmas Party. I got invited by no less than the Department Chair himself. I definitely would like to go and with Ric telling me that we have gifts from Dr.M, the more excited I am now. If I’m not mistaken, this is the third Christmas in a row that we received gifts from Dr.M. Last Christmas we got the whole Season1-3 DVDs of Sopranos. I wonder what we’ll be receiving today.
Speaking of Christmas gifts, I haven’t done any Christmas shopping this year. Zilch. Nada. I definitely hate to go alone and give myself serious headaches just for thinking specific gifts to the people I would give gifts. I’ll pass this year.
For Pen? Call me lazy, pathetic or unromantic, but I already bought her christmas gift last September. And for my defense, that gift is a should buy that time, if not, I will not be able to buy or even more, see it again. *wink*
To everyone who came to visit Pen in Asian Hospital, this blog entry is for you.
Pictures are included so I’ll just link you to the longer post inside
