furtive glance of my life

Because I’m not allowed to post my official engagement photo yet, I have compiled all the detail shot to give you a sneak preview. Sorry for my long hiatus…Here’s my quick post :)

Hope you are having a great weekend! xoxo

It’s undeniably, i’m too close to walking the aisle. whew!

A week ago, Bobby and I went home to comply with the requirements in church, apply for marriage license, finalize with my wedding planner, search for perfect bridal shop for my entourage, do the first fitting of my gown, celebrate daddy’s birthday, catch up with family and friends and to finally do the engagement photoshoot. Just imagine how I mananged to pinch all in for 7 days..hehehe.

If you can still remember my previous post how anxious I was looking for the best photographer that suits us and our budget..Well, I am so fortunate that I found him. He got a brilliant imagination, knows how to feel us at ease, and brings such a different dynamic. You can visit his blog to know more about himhttp://eightespino.com/weddings.php

Anyhow, enough for that! I’m just so excited to share some of the raw and behind the scene pre nup shots. Enjoy!:)

Lovely isn’t it? How can I not thank the service and effort that was extended by my wedding planner. By the help of Jill Gascon, I have a total of 8 pre nup themes. All packed in 2 days. Here’s the link in case you want to hire herhttp://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1061563890&ref=ts

She personally arranged and created every detail of the picnic concept without expecting any in return. 

Thats Jed Nasol in orange shirt, the videographer who has so much in mind. Should I say, a quick-witted man. 

Because Julie Simbajon makes me beautiful :) Visit her facebookhttp://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1235596837

Thank you Eight Production Team.

Who says summer isn’t here yet?

Though the weather has been bipolar lately, nothing can stop us from hitting the beach. Thank God for the Lenten break we were able to visit the well-liked island of Singapore..SENTOSA

This time we joined the sassy crowd of Azzura Beach Club. 

Here’s some of the candid shots taken by Bobby and Rain…

This is LIFE. Dancing in the rain….

More photos to share!! :)

Happy Easter everyone. xoxo

February is a month of LOVE. I know its kinda late to blog about it but I’m enthusiastic to share something before this month ends.

If you were to ask…What is LOVE?

I know its a difficult question for others. It can mean different things to different people. Perhaps the answer lies in your own experience.

I have a simple definition of LOVE. For me, it is magical, a choice, and a gift. 

When a good friend gave The Love Dare book, my perspective on love has expanded.

It is a daily devotional book for engaged and married couple. Made to be read and shared daily with your significant other which requires unwavering mind and a constant determination. To be honest, I didn’t have a hard time convincing my other half to spend his time and made a commitment of sharing thoughts everyday. 

When I started reading this book, I realized that my definition to love is just too superficial. For love is more than an expression and not just only a plain emotional attachment to a person.

Let me take you to day 2 of the book. Love is life’s motivator. It says, when love invades your heart, you are empowered to endure deeper pain, willingly pay a greater cost, and run risks to your reputation for the sake of another. Just like our gracious God who send His only Son to die for our sins. Thats how sturdy love is.

I was reminded of 1 Corinthians 13 verses 4-7,”Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.” The dare is to replace the words “love” or “it” with your first name. :) I have to admit..its not that easy!

I may not giving the perfect love that my other half deserves, but I am more willing to give the ideal love that he can never imagine. I know the sole purpose of having The Love Dare is to enrich our relationship to each other and to God.

Love is meant to be expressed everyday. And who says Valentines is for in-love couples only? LOVE IS FOR ALL.. whether your are single, unofficial lovers, in a complicated relationship, taken or in a steady relationship..Its how we celebrate to make it extra romantic. 

Nothing remarkable happened last 14th except that he left some of his stuff in my table and took me out for a lovey-dovey dinner at 7,107 Flavors. Just like back home, enjoying the savoury flavors of Philippine cuisine.

I was enthralled to have witnessed the Asia’s biggest for Aviation Finest- The Singapore Airshow. The event which I thought will only be appreciated by men. But the moment I stepped in the ground of Changi Exhibition Area yesterday, I was totally astonished from the high-handed aerobatic flying displays. Truly, a one in a lifetime sky-high experience.
