I need to do something to please and be sorry for what I've done to Ian last Saturday night. So I ask my friends on what are the best surprises or the best things I can do to him just to forgive me. The first thing in my mind was to treat him dinner with matching cake and flowers then I ask him to rank the following restaurant according to his favorite. The choices are John and Yoko, California Pizza Kitchen, Shabu Shabu, Sentro, Banana Leaf, Bubba Gump and Chilis. After 10 minutes, I received a text message from him informing that the top choice for him was John and Yoko which is a Japanese Restaurant. As all of you know that Ian really loves Japanese foods. Next in line was Bubba Gump followed by CPK, Sentro, Shabu Shabu, Chilis and Banana Leaf as his last choice. Now I know where I going to treat him next. Haha.
Ian fetch me at the office around 5:30pm last Tuesday, then we walk off to Greenbelt 5 to have our dinner. While walking, we talked lots of things; he also shares his personal problems. I don't know what to say or how to help him with his problem; I told him that my presence and my love for him will not fade no matter what happened. So I decided to treat him to ease what ever the problem is.

We settled in John and Yoko who is situated at Greenbelt 5. It is a Japanese Restaurant. We we greeted by a polite waitress then assist us to our seats. The place was modern cool, the interior and stylish are also modern; it is also ideal if you want to sit down, relax and do some serious talks like what we did.


Since this is our first time to try this restaurant, we get a little bit hard to choose what to order. But since Ian knows some Japanese dish, i give him the right to decide on what to order, bu t I suggested him some best dishes that they offer, because I read some blogs and reviews about this restaurant.
The first thing we order was the Crunchy Squid Teriyaki for our appetizer. I insist Ian to try this one instead of our usual Caesar Salad.

The taste was really good; It's a combination of sweet and a little bit spicy.

Crunchy Squid Teriyaki Php 168.00

Ian ordered for Pepper Crusted Chicken which you can choose either rice or pasta. He chose to have pasta.

Pepper Crusted Chicken Php 238.00

I'm a little bit hungry so I ordered Bacon Enopi. It is a piece of vegetables I guess, wrapped in Bacon and served with sweet sauce.

Bacon Enopi Php 258.00

Gohan Php 78.00

We are both satisfied with the foods, as well as the service that they shown to us. Then, finally I apologize again to him and ask for forgiveness. Ian is very understanding person and he doesn't keep any anger or hatred. I love him so much and he loves me without any doubt and I promised to myself that I will changed my bad attitude for the benefit of our relationship. I want to keep this relationship forever. I also give him encouragement and promised him that I will be at his side no matter what happen. I know he has major problem today that makes him weak, but I promise him that I will be strong for him and we will face this problems hold hands. I love you Honey. Thank you for everything.

I asked JR if she can come with me during lunch time today at SM Makati to purchase Oven Toaster for my boss, luckily she also planned to go at SM Makati to buy some stuffs for her baby. After our walkathon and bu the Imarflex Oven Toaster , I received a simple gift from her. I was surprised when she gave me this little paper bag.


One piece of donut from my dear friend, JR.

Thanks JR for giving me this donut; I already have something to eat during our merienda time. ^_^

After our sumptous dinner at Shakey's, Ian and I decided to visit Salon and have our Foot Spa in preparation for Jap and Beth's wedding the following day. We left our things in our house first, then we go off to F Salon and Beauty Spa. This is also where we do our quarterly haircut. The stylish here is very good! I swear!

Since we arrived here around 9pm and I guess the store will closed around 10pm, we settle on to have Foot Spa Deluze with Pedicure, we are lucky to have 50% discount that they offer just for this branch only. Yahoo...

Jap is one of our jolly classmate in FPPF Basic Photography Class; he belongs to group 4 or much known as "Hot Shots group" together with Ate Elsie and Joseph. Ian, Emman and I belong group 1 or the "Photogenics" while Jack, Ruel, Irvin and Kuya Mike D. belongs to group 2 or the "XPOSE". The first time we met Jap, we get surprised when he told us that he's presently work as a police officer. WOW! Police man at the same time photographer. Great!
We do lots of activities together like photowalks, monthly meetings, charity works last December 2009 at Hospicio de San Jose and now, the wedding of the year! I got a phone call from Jap last February, I remember it's Sunday in the afternoon, he asks for Ian's cell phone number. I was surprised when he told me that he invites us to his wedding on March 27. I was shocked when he also told me that he includes Ian as one of his groom's men. Haha. Maybe because this will be the 1st wedding event that Ian will participate in the ceremony.

After borrowing the Barong to Biboy, searching for his slacks and black shoes, purchased of white t-shirt, here it goes. My handsome boyfriend with his formal attire. ^_^

Of course, I make it a point that I will wear my glamorous dress for this event. ^_^

Can we ever forget to have a picture of us?! Definitely not, so here we are. Happy couples! ^_^

3 beautiful girls..

Mama Elsie, are you okay?!

The main event starts around 5:45pm. Beth is such a beautiful woman in her gown. I can imagine myself walking down the aisle while my hubby is waiting for me at the altar. How romantic right?! I know every woman dream to get married with the one you trully love for the rest of your lives. I saw the teary eyes of Beth while walking towards Jap. I know she is super happy to have Jap in her life same as Jap with Beth.


the bride

I think Jap is a little bit nervous but excited at the same time. Perhaps, this is the day that the 2 persons become one. I love them both. They look so in-love with each other. For now, I'm so happy to be with Ian in my life. I don't even ask for more. Maybe God gave us the right person who will complete the other half of you.

the groom

All of the people inside the garden are serious during the rite; they want to witness the wedding of the year, the tie up of Jap and Beth as one.

My F21 friends are also with us to witness the wedding ceremony of our dear Jap and Beth.






The ritual ended around 7:40pm then of course picture taking with families, relatives and friends. Of course, can we ever forget to take the pictures of newly weds?! So here they are.

Congratulations!


Jap and Beth :)


As usual, the wedding will not be complete without social gatherings at the reception.

there is a story behind this picture.. Haha.

For Jap and Beth, Congratulations and Best Wishes! Thank you for inviting us to your special day. We wish you happiness, success and more babies to come. We love you both and always remember that we are here for you. Again, Congratulations!!!

P.S.

Thanks Ate Elsie, JR and Jack for the pictures!

More pictures to come (from Ian's camera)

Thank God it's Friday!

I requested Ian last Friday to go with me at Waltermart Makati to canvass for my swimwear this summer. Actually, I already saw my dream swimwear during my dinner date with my parents last Tuesday at Max's Restaurant. Since my boss left the office earlier, I have a chance to the office early. I asked him to meet me at the Waltermart since he will be riding MRT, I told him to go off in Magallanes station too.

The first thing we do was to look again my prospect swimwear at Robinson's Department. Since I have limited money that time, I asked him that I will purchased it by April. Hehe. Since we are both hungry that time, we choose to have our early dinner because we planned to have our foot spa the same day in preparation for Jap's wedding.

We set off to have dinner at Shakey's in Makati Cinema Square since Ian is craving for Mojos.

Since we really love Caesar Salad, this is the first thing we ordered. The Chef choice salad they offers includes ham, grated cheddar cheese, crunchy croutons and hard boiled egg heaped on fresh lettuce served with a choice either thousand island or ranch dressing, but we choose our favorite thousand island of course.

Chefs Choice Salad Php 127.00

We ordered the most original and most famous of all combos that they offer, the Bunch of Lunch. It includes chicken, spaghetti, garlic bread, a slice of Hawaiian delight thin crust pizza and 2 pcs of mojos.

Bunch of Lunch Php 124.00

Since all of you know that I cannot eat without hot sauce, I asked the waitress to give me one.

We also ordered for Mojos n dip, the shakey's very own fried potato slices breaded with unique seasoning and spices. It is yummier when you dip them in zesty Caesar or garlic and spice or simply catsup.

Mojos Php 82.00

Of course our dinner date will not be complete without picture taking... ^_^
