Top 5s #3

I actually have more than 5 I think, but will stick to the title of this post.  My week is packed as usual.  Blessings and answered prayer, left and right.  So without further blah blah, here are my top fives of this week!

• New bag, new shoes! I love shopping festivals!  And in this part of the globe, it’s the shopping haven ofMiddle East.  From the knock-offs to the most luxurious. DSS officially kicked off.  Although the malls are usually crowded during the weekends (Friday and Saturday in UAE) yesterday was more crowded because it’s a 3-day holidays for us, well at least to those who have Friday and Saturday off.  I’ve gotten myself a new Kipling bag in bright turquoise and red Lacoste snickers. Its 40% off for the bag and 50% off for the shoes.

• Answered Prayers! One of our dear Sis-in-Christ returned to UAE with all her work documents arranged.  Though it was a long process, still we believe that all work together for good (Rom 8:28).

• Licensed Architect brother.  I was not that anxious before his exams but found myself anxious waiting for the results. It was released last Thursday.  I was waiting for it and I kept on refreshing PRC’s site.  As my phone rings and that it registered my sister’s number, I knew already that its good news. It is an answered prayer also. :)

• Surrounded by nice people. This is a treasure. Though we see almost everyday, I never get tired of being with them even up to the mall.  Last Friday, after the church service, we went to City Center.  Its chaotic and its more chaotic in the food court.  Its pass 9pm and still people are not yet done with dinner!  It took us more than 10 minutes to find a place.  The dinner was free and its so nice to have a feeling of a family when you are away from your own.  Putting all those tables together like a long dining table, we prayed and eat 2 buckets of KFC Chicken.  After that we head to shop! The boys got their Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 while we got our shoes at Lacoste with 50% discount!

• Early Salary.  Got our salary for June! Its so in time with DSS which is rather a bad news if I don't spend it wisely.  The next one will be after more than a month and so its more difficult to budget (as if I do this). haha!

Top 5s! # 2

Alas! I've got another of my Top 5s.  Nothing about Kpop or Kdrama as I am in fasting mode (at least for kdramas). Still a lot of things to thank God for!

Drum roll....

• Bro's Archi exams.  One down for him, its a 2-day exam.  The first one was yesterday and the second one will be for tomorrow.  He told me that he hardly got a sleep the day before his exams.  After a decade of college, now he faces another challenge.  A lot of people are praying for him.  I think I am more excited for him.  For passing this exams it will just manifest how God works, in His time and how prayers works!  Good luck dude!


• Dad's Birthday.  I honestly wasn't able to call him, but I called the day before.  They (he and my mom) are in Ilo-ilo, my mom's hometown to visit our relatives.  Its my birthday gift to him as it was his first time to travel through plane.  My dad is such a handyman in which I wish my future hubby will be like that - among other things of course.  I thank God for having such a father like you! lovelots!


• Bible Studies.  We got 2 this week yay!  One is with Ate Leny and its a send off get-together also for Liza who will be away for 3 months (hope this girl will get well soon).  I miss the leading of an older and matured Christian.  And the lesson about Forgiveness.  A very timely lesson, for all of us especially to myself.  I'll probably gonna post about it.  Its good to hear that the ladies got blessed by the lesson.  I thank God for using me and I am bringing all the glory to Him.


• TGIF.   We (the Alpha Gwapas) had dinner with our Pastor.  Too bad May have to miss it and so are Liza and Lai. I had the Wicked Chicken and got a share of all the rest of what the ladies ordered.  After that Coldstone!  Not really fan of Coldstone.  I once got disappointed and never gave it another chance till Friday.  Of course I love to see the ice cream flying before landing on the floor cone!


• Blog's New Layout.  A clean and a summery feel for my blog this time.

Top 5s - June Entry

I know, this blog have dust and molds all over.  Its June and I can see that my blog posts are going down. I don't think that I owe any one a post, but still, its a responsibility upon signing up to wordpress.  Our cnbluedubai site is even worse! We could have re-blogged some news about CNBLUE, but its not personal.  I also planned to put up another page or tab on my blog, featuring my top 5 happenings (at least in my life) on a WEEKLY basis and so goodluck to that! haha!  As I write this I cannot even think of my top 5s! haha.. so in no particular order:

• Being transferred to head office.  This is an answered prayer.  I raised this on our prayer list, and viola, Sunday morning, I received an email that I am coming back! Glory to God!


• Post birthday gifts!  Have 2 Mango bags! Thanks... Thanks... Thanks!


• Got our salary! It was blown out from my bank account in a week, but glad that I was able to pay off what I need to pay.  Hope my Ma and Pa, will enjoy Ilo-ilo and that the weather will be nice to them, after all its my Pa's birthday, and will be his first airplane ride. Happy Father's day Pa! I love you!


• New hair color! eeerrrr... It doesn't really show, but its nice that it covered some white hair that I got from stress.


• Church anniversary is over!  Yes its over and as our theme says "Run Faster, Aim Higher, Be Stronger!"  Hope more ladies will be available for the ministry.  A lot of souls need to know Christ and be their Savior.

Some pics from anniversary and victory dinner.
