Hey! We just watched that Air Supply Concert last Ssturday night at the Araneta Coliseum, and it was a great concert! Lots of people!
Guess who sang before the Air Supply? Well, our very own Charice Pempengco! She sang three songs, one of them was the song she sang when she guested at Ophra’s show, Whitney Houston’s song "I have Nothing". It’s the first time I heard her sing live, and she is amazing! ,
Guess who else was there to watch the concert? Well, it was the former First Lady Imelda Marcos. She was even warmly welcomed by the band.
Graham Russel and Russel Hitchcock have grown much, much older, but they still sang very well. The audience sang along with them in nearly every song that they sang. They were AWESOME! They even got off the stage to go around the Patron section, and the audience was so elated! I wished I was on that Patron Section!
It was definitely a successful concert! After their last song, the audience sang Happy Birthday song to the band. Graham celebrated his birthday on June 11, and Russel celebrated his birthday yesterday, June 15.
Congratulations to Air Supply, and Happy Birthday to both Graham Russel and Russel Hitchcock!

Just a few hours ago, I ended a day that turned out to be one of the most beautiful days of my life. At about 1am, my mom called me up and greeted me with a wonderful happy birthday. I was so happy! The very person who brought me into this world was the first person to remember my birthday! Later in the morning, I was woken by a series of missed calls and text messages from my friends, and my bestfriend, who remembered me this day, and honestly, it felt really good. I wasn’t expecting them to remember, since we have not seen each other for quite sometime.
I spent the afternoon waiting in line at the Land Transportation Office at East Avenue with my daughter, to renew my driver’s license, as it would be expiring today. I had to take a drug test and a medical exam before filing my application for renewal. (Read about the procedures and costs of a Non-professional driver’s license renewal here). After receiving my renewed license, we went off to pay our bills and to purchase a powerstrip that my Mr. Workaholic asked me to get for the computer. By 5:30PM, I was home, and really tired. We were having dinner out, and I realized that I didn’t have that much time to fix myself up for this special date with my family. But inspite of that, my evening was wonderful.
We had dinner at the Panciteria San Jacinto at Libis and the kids were excited. Year after year, I have celebrated my birthdays with both friends and family altogether. This birthday was special. It was just me, my Mr.W, and my children.. the most important people in my life. Food was great, and the service was good. After dinner, Mr. W approached one of the waiters to ask for a cake to be ordered from Mom and Tina’s Bakery Cafe right next to the San Jacinto’s. The waiter quickly called for a waiter from Mom and Tina’s who, in turn, came quickly with their own menu. I was simply awed! I chose a nice little chocolate cake, just to satisfy Mr. W’s insistence that had a cake, and, that I blew a candle on my birthday. The cake was delivered, and they sang me a happy birthday song (softly, I asked them, so as not too attract too much attention from all the other customers of San Jacinto), and I blew the candle… take note… JUST ONE CANDLE… I’m not announcing my age here ok.. haha!
It was just dinner, and just a few hours. But I can’t seem to describe how I felt every moment of that experience. We shared, laughed and enjoyed each other all throughout the evening. We were so bonded, so close, and it simply felt so beautiful. I thank the Lord for moments like these. I thank Him for giving me another year to live and share my life with this wonderful family. I’m so in love with my babies… all of them are my babies. They’re all I really have, and they’re all I ever want and need… and they truly, truly make me soooo happy!
These are the photos we took last night on this memorable family dinner date we had at the San Jacinto.

Psalm 23:1-6

The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
