Our Little Sanctuary

Welcome and Come In!

 

Ever since we moved in to our new house I haven't really shared much about the house move and the house itself. So it's time for me to share about our little sanctuary!
Welcome to 8 Makenade Avenue,our little sanctuary, our humble home. It is a semi-detached house and was built in 1935. It is near the train station, town centre, library, post office, grocery store and above all it is just 10-15 minutes walk to where I work. Perfect location!
The previous owners of this house were an elderly couple and has lived here for 50 years. They both love gardening that's why we have this lovely front garden, two green houses (one was demolished), and plenty of plant pots (big and small). hehe
Now we have lived here for just almost 4 months yet it feels like I've lived here 4 years. I fell in love with this house the first time I saw it on our first viewing. And of all the houses we viewed this is just the only house I felt at home and instantly saw myself living in here.
And how we got the house? Quite a chased! I felt so sure of the house even though there were so much to do to update it in a 21st century standard. I told my husband to put an offer but he wasn't sure so we left it for a bit. But because I am dying to get the house, I had a look again through the Internet and it said it has been taken out of the market! Someone has fancied it and put an offer!
I was so furious and upset. I rang the estate agent and alas! he confirmed to me that someone had put and offer and the owner has accepted it! I hurriedly rang my husband, nagged him and just like a brat, I asked him to do something to get it because I wanted it so much!
I was so disappointed and I cried to my mother in-law. And as always she supported me that the house is the right one for us. Actually she liked the house as well, she was the one who saw it in the Internet and told us. Now as I felt hopeless, all I did was prayed and thought if it is for us by hook or by crook we will get it and I left it in the hands of my husband.
He rang the estate agent and put an offer to the house guessing it was bigger than what the first bidder offered. The waiting game was tedious but thanks GOD he planned this house for us, our second offer was accepted! Hooray! We got it!
And since then our bank account hasn't been recovered! haha..Updating it is expensive yet we know in the long run when we've finished renovating our little sanctuary, it's gonna be worth it! :)

Now we are enjoying and happily living in this place we call HOME!

♥ We Were Supposed to Have a Baby But We Had an Angel Instead ♥

To My Dearest Little Angel 

I was over the moon when I knew you were growing in my tummy.

I adore and love you so much even though I haven't seen you.

I carried you very carefully for the 11 weeks you were inside me.

Everyday I woke up with so much joy and excitement in my heart 

knowing each day I am getting closer to seeing you my dearest little angel.

But I don't know what went wrong,

I woke up with spots of blood telling me that my little angel isn't safe any more.

I was so scared, I can't imagine losing you, I wouldn't know what to do.

I prayed and prayed, asked my little angel to be strong and to hold on for Mummy and Daddy.

Slowly the pain elevates and just then I knew sooner or later I might be losing you.

I felt so helpless, hysterical and above all, scared.

I can feel the blood rushing out of me, pouring down the bed,

I couldn't move, I don't want to move,

I wanted to keep you so badly, so desperately.

Although my heart gets weaker and weaker every time I felt the blood coming out of me,

I didn't lose hope, I didn't want to lose the hope that you would be staying with me and Daddy.

The doctor tried to spot you with the ultrasound inside Mummy's womb

And for the first time I saw you,

My heart was beating fast, I was delighted to see you and more desperate to keep you.

Although the doctor told me he can't hear any heartbeat,

I didn't lose hope because my heart was beating for you.

I can bear the pain and all the blood loss,

But the thought of you leaving me, I can't bear.

The most painful memory was lying there on the hospital bed so helpless

Just waiting to lose my little angel.

My abdominal pain didn't seem to get any worse after taking some pain relief.

I wish it lessened the pain I felt in my heart, but it didn't, it just sent me to sleep.

After five hours of sleep, I woke up from my nightmare, which unfortunately was real.

Much as I was losing my blood, I was not losing my tears.

The pain covered me and a sudden melancholy invaded me.

I went to the toilet to relieve myself,

I felt something bulky came out of me,

And when I tried to have a look,

Right in front of me, swimming in a bloody liquid was my dearest little angel.

"Oh my Lord!", my heart was ripped and I didn't know what to do,

I wanted to save my little angel, but there was nothing I could do.

Desperately wanting to cuddle my little angel,

I picked up my little angel and lay it on a piece of clean paper.

I held my little angel and carried it with me to my bed.

I wanted to run away with my little angel, but I knew I had to face it and I couldn't do anything,

But trust my little angel to the hands of God, who does great things for us.

I feel so sorry, so guilty and irresponsible.

I could have been extra careful.

Now I don't know where to start, how to pick up the pieces and face life again.

I lost myself just as I lost my little angel.

We love you so so much our little angel,

You will always be in Mummy and Daddy's heart forever.

Some day at the right time,

Mummy and Daddy will finally hold you

and cuddle you in our arms.

Lots and lots of Love

Mummy and Daddy xxxx

We've Got the Date!

Finally after all the hard work, packing and sorting out necessary things to make our move in to reality, and postponing many times, at last we've got the date! 27th of April 2012..oh yes, the date is tomorrow! *wink*
Hunny booked a van to rent yesterday and we are going to have it tomorrow from 8am to 5pm. Yes indeed tomorrow is an early start for us. Good breakfast tomorrow is essential as we have a heavy day ahead. We have to have plenty of energy to sustain us from all the moving,carrying and lifting heavy furnitures.
After that unpacking and sorting out is the next thing, so our weekend will be fairly busy. After tonight we are officially at 8 Makenade Avenue and not 5 Well Close no more..it will be a bit strange at first but I hope we'll settle quickly.
I feel happy that finally we are moving to our own place but at the same time sad as I will miss my parents in-law. I know we are not gonna move that far and seeing them wont be a problem at all, but I mean the usual stuff we are doing together. Like playing card games at night, my MIL's cooking, the laughter, the good pudding, the luxury of having different flavour ice cream (lol), lots of things.
Anyway I/we will make sure we are going to visit them often, I'll be calling my MIL often as well for some food advice and of course we'll make sure we wont miss the Sunday roast that often.*wink*

How about you guys what are you up to this weekend? Whatever you do, enjoy and have a happy weekend!

Life in the UK Test

In a few months time my 2 years Spouse Visa will expire already. My 2 year probation will be finished soon and I will be naturalise for a  Settlement Visa or Indefinite Leave to Remain provided I will pass the Life in the UK Test. This test is mandatory for those who wanted to Settle in the UK. It is a test to see how much you know of the British history, culture and politics before and after the war to the present, and how much you are familiar with the British way of life as you wanted to settle in the country.
You have to pay £50 for the exam as what I gathered from some of my Filipino work colleagues who already took the test. They said it was only up to 25 questions (if I heard it right) but there might be some changes and they will add the number of questions, I don't know, hopefully not. You could get a reviewer to scan and study before getting the test. My work colleagues said that the 2007 Edition of reviewer is the best one to get. If you are not so confident of a self review, I browsed the net earlier I came across a site that offers a course, training and certificate for the Life in the UK Test. Click here for details. If you want to practice the test like you are in the actual test day, with a timer and some useful questions, you can do it in a free on-line practice.
It's nice to do it all, buy a reviewer or go to a course training if you have the money and if it assures you can pass the test. But well for me with a little tight budget, I need to pass the test in August by self review and borrowed reviewer!hehe..I know God will be with me and I still have plenty of time to review..

Hope this post will be useful to you ;-) xx

♥ Celebrating Hearts Day ♥

I was on annual leave last week yet I wasn't able to update my blog regularly as I wanted.My mind was too occupied on getting our house ready for us to move in soon. Although I had a lot in mind to blog about I wasn't that keen to write or rather type it. lol..
Anyways I have a lot of things and happenings to share and one of these is our celebration of hearts day. Days before that I was teasing my hunny what he will get me for Valentines day, maybe rather imposing what I want him to get for me..*wink* I really wanted him to get me the DKNY watch that I saw in Amazon but it was a bit expensive (I understand,,considering our recent house expenses) and too late noticed I suppose. Ang KURIPOT at PULUBI mo..I said to him..So juvenile of me, acting like a spoiled brat. *toink* So because of that I slept not in a good mood the night before V-day.
And of course because I slept in a bad mood the night before I woke up the same. Hunny kissed me and whispered his V-day greetings but I refused to accept it and acted like I didn't know it was Valentines day and went back to sleep! Echos!
Before he left to work he came back and gave me another kiss and greeting and handed me this

♥A sweet Valentines Card with a hello kitty chocolate lolly :) weeeeeh♥

I was so guilty, Although I only got this chocolate lolly instead of the expensive watch I wanted, I felt the great love of my hunny with this simple card and loll. With the usual pampalubag loob saying if di mo nakuha ang ini-expect mong gift.." It's the though that counts" (haha) I was relieved. *wink*

And that's when I realised I haven't got a card or present for him..Toink!toink! disaster!! Wala pang card sa usual supermarket na binibilhan namin, not so much to choose. Good thing I got a spare card at home and so I got him a chocolate..So I gave him this

 He got this after work though but better late than never isn't it?hehe..Mum prepared a nice candle light dinner for the four of us. Asian cuisine ready meal dinner *wink* with a good wine which we all enjoyed. We watched "When Harry Met Sally" during the evening just the 2 of us with popcorn and cider :).

Clearly our Hearts day was great!!

I have seen and read several of my blogger friends v-day celebrations, all seemed to have gifts from hubbies and interesting day :) .. L♥ve L♥ve L♥ve....Spread the L♥ve! *wink*

WE Need D.I. Y. Skills

The thought of finally moving to our own house soon excites me a lot. But nevertheless the refurbishment thought worries me a little bit cos of the few things we need to get to make the house habitable for us. And of course watching those property development program here, I am well aware of the cost and mind you it is expensive! I have a bit of experience with house refurbishment as I did it once when hunny and I renovated our house in the Philippines so we have our own place when he visits me. But although that's the case, the costs of the materials here, furniture's and especially the labour of builders or plumbers are more expensive than it is in the Philippines. And so because of that, people here are more on D.I.Y (Do it Yourself) when they are renovating their houses, unless there's major renovation that's when they get builders or plumbers. In our case we might need the skills of a plumber to do our dated bathroom and wc. That's the very first thing we are keen to do before moving. I always have this weird dream being trapped in a filthy bathroom or toilet, and I tell it's always a nightmare for me. So I told my hunny I can live with anything, dated kitchen and wallpapers but not a filthy toilets/bathroom! We have a lot to tackle but with the bathroom and wc renovated, the rest are all DIY skills which I hope my husband I will learn as we go along the work. Might ask some friends help and of course my in-law/ parents in-law are here to help us (bless). Hopefully there would be no major renovations aside from the bathroom and wc downstairs, and we will have enough money to fund the refurbishment. toink! Sana may mag donate na charity..nyahaha! Gusto ko kasi e renovate and buong house talaga, and take note we have to buy sofas, tv, dining table etc. I noticed kasi interior designing is one of my passion..totoo *wink*. May mga nag donate na, and thanks to you all..Sana meron pa..hehe. Sana the DIY book that we bought will be a good guide for us learning our DIY skills...We offer this plans to you oh Lord..Thank you sa blessings!

Me as a Wifey..

Haaay..I'm so overly busy na talaga ate Liz hardly have time to join this meme anymore.I've missed lot of entries already. But this week, I've got 2 days off so it's time to blog! Anyways it's nice to be back here again!hehe.. Hmmm..for this week's topic; What am I as a wife to my hunnybunch? Well the frist thing I can think of that he told me, he said I'm like a dog daw, "pag sa akin na daw ang buto, di ko daw bibitiwan no matter what!"hehe..You know when we are arguing, di ako nagpapatalo sa point ko na sometimes pointless!
waaah *wink*.  Yet in the good side naman, sabi niya marunong daw ako magluto which for me parang hindi naman kaya ok na rin.hehe..But seriously (hehe..pa rin) he said I'm caring and loving. Pano kasi parang baby tong asawa ko, ako naglilinis most part ng katawan nito (ssshhh) like ears, cut his nails, eyebrows at lumalabasang buhok sa ilong which I really hate, kaya tama lang na gupitan!hehe..Sweet kami sa isat isa, at loving ako, lagi ko siyang na totorture.haha..(joke) Ewan ko ba but lagi kong namimiss tong mukong na to, especially nowadays na I'm working. All in all I'm a good wife pa naman at he said He can't live without me..oh di ba..abangan na lang natin in the next few years kung ganon pa rin ang sasabihin niya sa akin, baka ipa deport na ako dito sa susunod na mga taon..haha..I lab u hunny! *wink*

Sakal, Sakali, Saklolo! (wahaha)

First CC enrty for the month of March, hopefully ma complete ko sarap pa naman ng topic Quarrels!waaa magaling ako diyan pagdating sa asawa ko(wink). Yeah sa kasamaang palad it's slightly true, ewan ko sometimes feeling ko may pagka sadista talaga ako. Sometimes if my hunny and I seems to be ok for quite a while, feeling ko jahe walang aksiyon, na bobored ako (toink toink toink). Kaya yun seems like nakakahanap agad ako nang rason para awayin siya, kahit wala naman sa rason. Wawa hunny ko :( especially pag monthly period ko, haay naluluka asawa ko sa akin. haha..Someitmes sabi ko nga maybe totoo yong definition ko with my zodiac sign, na I can twist someones arm in the most engaging manner. Kasi sometimes kahit kasalanan ko na titwist ko, like in the end hunnybun ko ang lalabas na may kasalanan..waaa, Sabihin nyo cruella devil ako noh? I love my bunny so much just that feeling ko may pagka immature pa rin ako. Just yesterday lang nagtampo ako sa hunny ko, kasi sabi ko nga sa blog ko nagkasakit tong bunny ko and yesterday he's just on the way to feeling better but not fully. Eh suka nga nang suka, so I kept asking him what he wanted to eat or drink, tsaka maligo na kasi medyo may amoy na siya. Ayon ini snob ako, feeling ko bah nakulitan sa akin, wag ko daw siya kulitin kasi sakit daw ulo niya! Abah concerned lang naman ako tsaka worried cos he hasn't eaten anything and he's been vomiting a lot! So yun I left him alone talaga, I didn't asked at all I just stayed in our room and watched " Mutya". Kala niya ah, pero honestly para akon iiyak kahapon kasi lungkot agad ako. Every time inaaway ko tong mukong na to nalulungkot ako kasi he's just my only friend here na malapit sa akin, he's my bestfriend and if we have misunderstanding la na akong makaka-usap at kukulitin. I like tickling kasi, cuddling and laughing with him. Kasi mga Briton lam niyo masyado reserve at seryoso, kaya this way bunny gets to be opened with me. Anyways, in the end di ko siya natiis, kawawa eh, seems like a little angel (ngeek) asking me to come over him.Haay I'm just a woman who is in love of him so much, so I'm weak.(toink!) Kaya pinakain ko at nagbabath siya na parang baby. (smile)And I can't sleep anyway when we are not ok, kaya yun after that we slept with so much love in our hearts (naligo na eh..di na mabaho!wahaha.joke)! Teka ang haba nito ah..hehe

Let me Tell you Our Old Bad Habbit!

 Hello there everyone, Happy New Year and welcome back to me here at CC! I've been missing loads of entries so far so it's good to be back. Very interesting topic we have this week eh, "Our Old Bad Habits". Since it's new year as what mommy Liz said, we always make resolutions..hmmm, I don't tend to vocalised my resolutions but I always have a few in mind. And as always losing weight is number one in the list, said it last year and the year before and the year before that but it doesn't work, there's always yummy food around. (toink). Anyhow I'll share to you some bad habits I want to get rid of. Think..think..think...

I want to explore the Bible, discover more about the scripture and know the order, kahiya kasi sa church natatapos na magbasa ang minister namin naghahanap pa rin ako =( tsaka my husband and my PIL knows every character ng bibliya at ang history nito, jahe minsan.huhu)
I'll start getting involved in the kitchen, I mean cooking wise. My mother inlaw does the cooking, di ako tumutulong parang jahe kasi kaya tuloy ala pa rin ako masyadong alam lutu-in na English food.
Babawasan ko siguro ang shopping (tagalugin ko nalang para di ma intindihan ni hubby kasi parang di ko ma keep..hehe) 
I'll blog more na and I might get my own domain name?
Magiging positive na ako sa job hunting, and sa life I have here in England (titigilan ko na ang drama ko na umuwi sa Pinas!) with my hunny in years ahead (adjustmentnt period lang naman to dba?)
Try ko nang magising with my bunny in the morning para ako na mag prepare ng lunch nya (not that I don't do it but not consistent minsan mother inlaw ko nag preprepare kasi tulog pa ako!haist)
I'll try to be more outspoken and more friendly at church
Bawasan ang pagka moody at sira ulo (nasasaktan ko tuloy yong asawa ko!)
Bawasan kong umutot nang malakas (oi ha ginagawa ko lang yan pag kmi lang nang asawa ko)haha
Stop comparing my life to otherss, (bakit sila ganito na at ako ganito pa rin na drama) one at a time ika nga..
Tatapusin ko ang  7 Books ng Chronicles of Narnia

 As to my bunny I already told him what I want him to change or get rid of..hehe
First bawasan din nyang umutot nang malakas!
2nd Stop picking his nose when he can't find something to do (nagiging hobby nya na to pagwalang magawa!eeew)
3rd get rid of his worst manerism (he knows it, hiya akong e-share..haha)
4th stop being too competent when we play (haay over sya nagagalit pagnatatalo, parang bata!)
5th Sana he could keep his pillowcase clean even just for the ist one week after we change it ( one day pa lang kasi yucky na..hehe)

Haay I think that's enough na pambubuking na sa asawa ko!haha..hopefully we could keep up to these and we will have a great life ahead.

I Wanna Grow Old with You

I'm the type of girl that hates to assume too much in a relationship. I don't know but I don't  like or want to play too important in a persons life or he to me. Just like talking about the future together with a boyfriend, how many or what gender of kids you like, or even just think of walking in the aisle with him! Duh! that' just too much for me! hehe..I don't know but I feel like for me if I talk to him about it he'll just think I'm that eager or I love him that much or kung baga patay na patay ako sa kanya! (toink!)Oh sya oo na ma Pride chicken na ako!hehe..In fairness red mah lips but the last thing I want a guy to think eh yong patay na patay ako sa kanya!N.E.V.E.R! But?when my bunny came along, kinain nya lahat ng pride ko!Ako pa atangpropose sa mokong na to, kasi ang TORPE, and hina ng radar!haha. .Anyways serious ha, my bunny made me think of me walking in the aisle which I never thought in my entire life. Feeling ko ang dyahe, tsaka isang lang malaking ka ek-ekan! But everything changed when I met James, even though we haven't meet in person yet that time I already saw myself with him. And lahat yun has been cleared when he came to the Philippines last May 2009 and met me in person. And by then we started to plan our future together. We never gave up even though we had loads of  failures on our way to the journey. January 2010, we applied for my fiancee visa and alas! I was approved in 3 weeks! But before I was approved I was so apprehensive cos bunny set our wedding date already, and I was so pessimistic with the visa. And I said to him "what if I'll be denied again, what shall we do?" and this was his answer " I'll come back in the Philippines  I'll find work there, and live there with you. And no matter what happen by hook or by crook I will marry you this year,whether it'll be in the UK or there in the Philippines!" Whew! those were the words that kept me going and I clung on to.God knew how genuine we were so He heard our prayer and now we are half way to the future we both planned. Get married here in the UK, finally met his family, get a job (which I'm still not lucky to have), have our own place to call home (working on it),have little Roxxy and little James in God's good time and growing old together. A glimpse of our future that is worth fighting for.

Not as Often as I do

If  you wonder why I put this photo, it's because bunny and I are both Libra that means we both celebrate our birthday in October. Bunny was on 4th and mine is today 20th..yes today, another year to live, laugh and love!Thank you Lord!

Anyway this week's topic is "No dear". I hate this phrase! My bunny doesn't say "no" to me as often as I say "no" to him but everytime he says "no" it's mostly to the thing I oh so want to have or do.. phbtt. Like I want a certain dress, he will say "no hunny it's so flunging, don't like the colour, it's too exposed..(haist), When I tickle him he often says no (hehe..fair sometimes). And he said "no" to the 2nd crosstitch pattern I want him to buy me but yes to the first one!lol..And he's a big no no no of me drinking beer, cos he doesn't like beer. And above all I hate him is that when I asked him if I'm fat, he always say "no" which sometimes I think he's lying cos I gained almost 5 lbs already and my tummy is bulging now.grrrr..But aside from all of these I can't think of the time when my bunny said "NO NO" to me..Because sometimes I act like a brat!hehe..I love you hunny!

How about you, what's your "No dear" story? Share here at Couples Corner and get kilig!

I say "Yes" or "No" Justly..

Hooray! I'm back here in couples corner, wasn't able to participate last week. Bit busy SAHW since my PIL were on a holiday and that means I'll do the usual things my mil does like cooking.hehe.. Anyways now they're back and I'm back to blogging too and hopefully I won't missed any entries anymore. Interesting topic this week, YES Wife hmmm..oh well let me think, or I'll better ask my bunny if I'm a yes wife maybe.(wink) I guess it depends on what my bunny is asking to me, like if he ask me of buying more DVDs, he knows I would say no bcos he got loads here and some of them he hasn't open at all. One thing I like about my bunny is that he always confide things on me, every decisions he has to make he asks me, what I think, or if it's fine or not. I do the same, it's always great to decide things together anyways isn't it? Just sometimes I get so pissed off with him cos it seems like even little things he can't decide, just like where to put this and that (grrr..is ur husband's like that as well?hehe). And in terms of going out like somebody is inviting us or him, he always ask my permission and if I say no, bunny whole heartily accepts it. It's funny cos we always argue (cute,childish argue) if he's going to shower early in the morning before he works or not, or if he's going to change his top or trouser or hanky or not. In this matter I always say yes! hehe..It's just that here they are used to wearing their clothes back the next day, or having shower every other day since they don't sweat really and my bunny doesn't have bad odour (love his natural smell, he doesn't use aftershave, just deodorant) But now to avoid my nagging and teasing him mabaho if he doesn't go shower everyday, he doesn't ask me anymore he just go straight to the bathroom when the alarm beeps.hehe..And there's one thing my bunny knows I can never say no to..guess what? (wink) haha..

Hardest Days will Always be Better in the End..

 Another day of sharing about marriage life, I love this although not much to share in this week's topic.Pwede bang in engagement life te?hehe.. Since hunnybun and I were just married for 2 months, not long to be 3 months though.lol...So never had the so called "hardest days of our marriage" yet. But as couple, since we were engaged I guess there were few as far as I can remember. Oh well, the hardest days of our lives as a couple was every time I take hunnybun to the airport going back here in England.Oh dear my whole world stopped turning as soon as bunny starts packing his suitcase on his 1st, 2nd and 3rd visits, worst was his 1st visit. I didn't know it would be that hard, after all I was just with him in 17days and it feels like I've known and been with him ever since I've known the world. Haay I love everyday we spent but it scared me as well knowing each day means another day closer of him going back here.We cried so much in the airport, it makes me smile when I think about it now cos it was like a teleserye, we were crying hugging each other in front of the entrance,everybody was looking at us but the hell I care!We even had a long kiss in front of everyone! (shuks!haha) And then I saw a Filipina taking her foreigner bf in the airport as well but she wasn't crying like I did. Oh how will I forget what my hunnybun said before he went inside the airport, " I had the best days of my life here, I love you so much! ". See, how will you without his presence then, days seemed to passed slowly by then. Until we decided to apply for my visa. My hunnybun wants me to meet his parents first so we applied for a tourist visa to be quicker. After 2 months my bunny came back again in the Philippines for a week only to go with me in my interview.But then God tested our patience, the result was delivered the night before hunnybun's flight going back here, I was denied! It was again tear-filled night, I did cried but hunnybun cried harder than I did.(toink! Sabi nya laki na gastos ko!haha..kidding!) Haay nabihag ko ng bonggang bongga ang heart ng Briton na to, I said. Pano kasi  he cried more than I did, so I just stopped kasi di na makasingit ang iyak ko! (haist!toink!) Enough of the joke side, we faced life by strenghten each other and with our love. Dumating ang December he came back to the Philippines again for the 3rd time. I felt so guilty cos I was thinking my hunny worked so hard just to save it to send to me and for his plane tickets to visit me.God heard my plea he granted my fiancee visa. But it doesn't end there, I am not putting Filipino down but crab mentality and jealousy are always the bad side. Before I left our country sandamakmak ang paninira sa akin just to brainwash my bunny of marrying me and bringing me here. Bago nga pala ako umalis, my bunny built me a little concrete house which with my little creativity a lot of people liked it. Yong para may decent house lang kmi na uuwian bah. I didn't know such little house will cause chaos of jealousy to our neighbourhood (babaw noh?). Starting that my life was never at peace, maraming akusa which was really small minded to think yet it came to the point I had sleepless night cos my family was involved already and my Uncles are hunting those who were creating the rumours and gossip about me and then sending it to my hunnybun just like I have a kid, I'm a syota ng bayan,drunkard and me and my family is just after my husbands money. And the worst one was that I am not my father's daughter and is just a product of my mother's adultery! Oh dear this was the worst bcos they involved my mother, and I was feeling so weak and I tend to push my hunny away but he never left me, he said we will show those people they won't succeed. Haay it was the hardest days for us, I was emotionally, physically and mentally stressed and so was bunny. I even lose weight on those days due to those bitches!Hmmp! And bad things was that never enjoyed much of my last weeks back home with my family cos of the incident. But I know bunny and I will be facing a lot more,but we survived it before without each others presence, how much more that we are together =) ... I know life isn't always a bed of roses, but as long as I'm waking up each morning with the kiss and i love you of my hunnybun, hardest days will always be great in the end!

Be inspired and kilig with the different couples love story here in Couples Corner hosted by Ate Liz. Have a great night/day!

Love,Faith and Loyalty?We have it All!

 My bunny and I have been through a lot of trials to test our Love, Faith and Loyalty to each other. I know most of you guys can relate to me as being married to a foreigner. Having a long distance relationship wasn't easy. The only thing na pinanghahawakan ko eh yong faith ko na someday God will hear my prayer na sana si hunnycoy na nga para sa akin. Yong Loyalty ng hunnycoy ko, kahit minsan or most of the time paranoid ako 1 minute lang na hindi makaka reply sa chat namin. Nababaliw siya when I'm acting like that. And ofcourse I'm ever loyal to him, the commitment ring (which became our wedding ring) I have reminds me that I am happily taken, tsaka I changed a lot bcos of my hunny, never na ako nag gigimick with friends, kinuha ko na rin mga vices ko, I started a clean, fun life, enjoy it with my family and him (kahit chat lang kami). And that's also because I love him so much that I wanna be worthy of his love. And because he loves me so much too, hindi napakali dito sa England.hehe..4x umuwi ng Pinas sa isang taon, pero nung ika 4th sama na akopabalik! 

But before ako sumama sa kanya dito sa England dun na test yong Love,faith and loyalty namin to each other. Haay grabe if ma remember ko natatawa ako at naiinis. It was March this year my ex-bf's gf sent message to my hunnycoy na kung anu anong paninira sa akin, kesyo pinipirahan lang daw namin yong asawa ko and I'm just marrying him for visa. Dinamay pa pamilya ko, ok lang ako huwag na sila. And there's one lady who sent my bunny a message na may anak na daw ako at may kinakasama daw akong lalake while my bunny and I are on. I never worried at all kasi I know kung anu ang totoo, and I know God and my family knows the truth kung anu ako at sino ako. And my hunny believed in me, he said he saw who am I and my family, he have his own judgment to believe what people were saying. And because he loves me, have faith in me and is loyal to me, he prove those persons that they can never break us, not only them who will tore us apart.

Sharing Things Together

James and Roxxy tandem is always fun. I like how my bunny and I mixed up, we build up each other in many ways. If we work together on things it means fun! I like it cos it's not hard for us to delegate each other a certain task. Like on weekend, we always share all the things we do since we can't on weekdays when he's working. When we clean our room, he makes up the bed, I do the dusting, he'll hover this Saturday, I'll hover next Saturday. And we always make sure we go shower or have a bath together on weekends and if we have a chance on weekdays. I scrub him and he'll scrub me after. I clean his ears, pluck his eyebrows, cut his nails and toes. Yeah I always sort that things for him cos he's a bit lazy on those matter for himself. What he does is, put lotion on my dry skin, dry my hair, tidy up my mess in the room like the clothes to be washed and my towel to be hang.hehe..And when we're on a hurry for church on Sundays and seems like I don't have time to do my beauty session, my bunny patiently tidy things up for me while I do my beauty session. An don the kitchen I do the washing he'll do the drying, he gives me a dirty clothes from playing 5-a side football and I do the laundry,. Just sometimes I don't like his work on tidying cos it doesn't seems to fit my standard (shhhh)hehe. And there's a game in the pc that we play together and  help each other passed the level. We like sharing things together and helping each other in many ways and through that we also build up each other.

Happy Week! Enjoy more kilig thoughts of couples at Couples Corner hosted by Ate Liz.

Never Sleep in Grievance

 Sorry seems to be the hardest word at times. Especially when pride is a friend of yours. Moodswings is my bestfriend, haay kakaloka esp. when bloody mary is visiting me.That's the start of my hunny's misery, but he never ever give up on me. Sometimes I know I'm too much, just like a spoiled brat little girl if I behave. It's just that I am easily pissed off and lost my patience in him most of the times. He's a bit childish too sometime, and I'm reacting in my juvenile ways as well towards it. So no good, my bunny always says sorry to me as soon as he feels I'm mad even though at times it's my fault. Sometimes kasi hirap naming mag gets ang point ng isat isa kaya naiinis ako sa kanya, but now I want to act maturely at things, give more patience to my hunny cos he deserves it. Ayoko ko namn nag aargue kami, minutes lang hindi kmi nag uusap kahit we see each other, miss na miss ko yong briton ko, haha..and we promise to each other not to sleep wihout patching things up and we always stick to it. And we both enjoy our kiss and make up ;). Do you?haha

Wanting a thing and Having it!

Hmmm..Let me think about this issue.hehe.. Well, I know myself very well when I want something of course, just that I can't really tell about my hunny cos he seldom buys for himself, it is even me who remind or tell him he needs something. Just that one time we went shopping for , we passed by HMV which is a video store here and oh he wanted to buy loads of DVDs cos they were on sale that time.He tried to used his convincing charm to me like asking me in a kiddie manner but it didn't worked. Because for me, we don't need loads of DVDs my condition was, he has to finished watching all the DVDs he got and so we can buy one again. And we have a special sign to each other for the special thing we want (wink)..haha.

And on my part, when I want something I try to be oh so patient to my hunny, (not so patient to him on normal days) hehe..But I'm trying to now even thought I'm not asking something, bcos I know of all the people he's best deserve it. It takes a week for me to tell him or give sign to him that I want something because I'm so shy esp. when I need to send money to my mum in the Philippines.I think about it many times first, when is the right time to ask my hunnybun, till I ended up in nega thoughts where in fact my bunny doesn't mind at all. He's great and really so understanding. But of course I still used my sweet, low tone voice when I asked him. And anyway,  I don't really ask him to buy me this or that when I don't need it. I said to myself that I can have those things when I have my own work and earning as well. And with the lifestyle cost here in England, I need to be thrifty and be wise.
