rudney arrives

april 22.  johann and i together with my uncle and cousin fetched rudney sa airport.  sa byahe pa lang papuntang airport tulog na si johann.  nag-drive thru muna kmi sa jollibee for sure kse matatagalan pa sya bago lumabas tsaka gutom yun sigurado.  past 11 pm na sya nakalabas. nagising si johann nung sinakay yung baggage ni rudney sa sasakyan.  i told him na wag nya muna harutin kse bagong gising baka umiyak.  so nung byahe namin pauwi nakakalong sa akin si johann tapos nakatingin lang sya kay rudney.  so kinuha sya ni rudney sa akin tapos maya-maya nag smile na si johann. ayun nagkulitan na sila sa byahe.  dumating na kmi sa bahay past 12mn na.  ayaw pa matulog nung dalawa kaya nagkulitan pa.

la union

*~side kwento– days before we went to la union rudney went to his office to submit his papers for his visa application.  something happened there which caused rudney to have his left eyebrow stitched.  jealousy doesn’t bring anybody good.  ang excuse nya hindi nya sinasadya, di lang nya na-control yung emotions nya.  a**hole~* 

april 28-29.  by 7pm express way na kmi.  we were with nanay, his siblings and his cousin as tour guide. we’re going to la union to visit lolay and tatay.  once lang kmi nag-stopover sa jollibee sa tarlac ata yun or lagpas pa.  wala namang hassle sa byahe namin.  there was one check point lang na pinahinto talaga kmi.  malapit na yun sa kanila.  dumating kmi sa house nila past 12mn na.  eh magulo daw yung house nila kya dun kmi natulog sa house ni ninang lydia.  hindi tumabi sa amin si rudney natulog.  nakipag-inuman sya sa mga kapatid and pinsan nya.  nung morning na, pinakilala na si johann sa mga baka, manok and bibe na nandun.  after nun nag enjoy na kakatakbo. lawak kse ng tatakbuhan nya. pati yung sa kapit bahay nila rudney naging playground nya.  nagka-gasgas tuloy sya sa mukha, hindi kse sya nakailag sa sanga ng puno.  then nag-aya si cheney sa ilog.  di ako prepared, wala ako dala pang swimming ni johann and wala ako dalang sunblock.  eh since minsan lang yung oppurtunity na makapag-swimming ang anak ko sa ilog eh so hinayaan ko na.  sila na lang ni rudney ang nag-swim at ako ang nagkuha ng pictures.  as usual pahirapan paalisin dun si johann.  eh kaso nagiging magka-kulay na sila mag-ama kaya pinaahon ko na.  hay naku, major iyakan.  pagdating sa bahay pinaliguan ko sya sa poso sa may batya. dun hinayaan ko sya maglaro ng matagal.  after nun nap time na nya.  so naligo na rin ako, then lunch, then sinabayan ko na sya matulog.  nung nagising na sya tsaka ko sya pinakain then play na muna sa loob ng bahay kse mainit pa sa labas.  bitbit namin yung laptop so nanood cla ni cheska and ng ibang bata dun ng video.  nung pwede na sya lumabas ayun nakikipag-agawan na ng bola dun sa mga naglalaro ng basketball.  nung tapos na sila mag-basketball naghabulan naman cla ni rudney.  nung late afternoon na

In turn, please send this e-mail to as many people as you possibly can, especially those who are ill, depressed and in despair. Thank you.

Jim Castle was tired when he boarded his plane in Cincinnati , Ohio,that night in 1981. The 45-year-old management consultant had put on a week-long series of business meetings and seminars, and now he sank gratefully into his seat ready for the flight home to

As more passengers entered, the place hummed with conversation, mixed with the sound of bags being stowed. Then, suddenly, people fell silent. The quiet moved slowly up the aisle like an invisible wake behind a boat. Jim craned his head to see what was happening, and his mouth dropped open. Walking up the aisle were two nuns clad in simple white habits bordered in blue. He recognized the familiar face of one at once, the wrinkled skin, the eyes warmly intent. This was a face he’d seen in newscasts and on the cover of TIME. The two nuns halted, and Jim realized that his seat companion was going to be Mother Teresa! As the la st few passengers settled in, Mother Teresa and her companion pulled out rosaries. Each decade of the beads was a different color, Jim noticed.
