.Day 85 -86. My 26th birthday

dear Gelo Belano,

Birthday ko na! (ahahaha) Ayun got no plans to go out or eat out since the entire NY was filled with snow yung ibang daanan malalim pa snow at wala pang nag-plow. So ang mabait kong tatay bumile ng hipon and salmon at chocolate cake.Then si mama bumile ng candles and baloons. Well si Tin wala sa mood magluto . Ayun nagkaron bigla ng handa.

(other pics)

Then nung afternoon naglaro kame ni tin sa snow. Ahahaha! Masarap maglaro pag nasa ground na yung snow. Unlike nung bumabagyo ng snow. (:P) . Gawa sana kame ng snowman kaso sinipon na kme sa lamig, malakas pa din kase hangin. Aliw humiga sa malambot na ice.(hihihi)

Hay 26 nako! Hopefully I can accomplish all my goals by the time I turn 27 next year. I pray for more blessings, for my relationship with you to last a lifetime, for my prayers to be answered.

Thanks for the "scrub"! (ahahah! +muah+)

I love you so much asawa ko! +hugsies+

Love lots,

Rian Ruiz (Belano)

.Day 84. Snow Storm

dear Gelo Belano,

Eto na ang pinakahihintay kong araw. Ang mag snow, since first time kopa lang maexperience yung literal na pagbagsak ng snow kaya naman pumayag ako sumama kay mama and daddy na magshopping. So todo get up ako (1)Tanktop (2) Long sleeves (3)Fleece Jacket (4)Bubble Jacket

(5)Bonnet (6)Scarf (7)Tights (8)Jeans (9) Snow boots (10)Gloves. I got your snow hubby, nasa plastic cup nga lang.(parang scramble lang) Try ko gawa snow man mamaya sa rooftop.

So I walked in the snow, felt the snow, tasted the snow, touched the snow.

Ganun pala yun masakit pag yung hangin sasalubong sayo may kasama pang yelo.

Seryoso how I wish may goggles ako. Yun talaga kulang.It was crazy, at first matatakot ka lumabas kase wala kang ibang makikita kung snow at malakas na hangin. Kahit gano ko gusto bilisan lakad ko I can't kase baka madulas ako. Pasaway si mama pinilit nya talaga ako picturan sa snow. Mamaya ipost nya sa FB malamang.

Snow Storm = Signal #4 Bagyo. Pagkakaiba lang instead of tubig ulan eto naman ice.

What an experience. Nahirapan pa kme umuwe kase ang tagal ng train namen pauwe. So lipat kame sa place na merong bus pauwi. Kaso wala din pala bus (since puno na snow daanan). So balik nanaman kame sa train station. Bute meron nang dumating. One more challenge maglakad pauwe sa apartment,2 blocks away,sidewalk filled with snow. Natatawa nalang kame ni mama, kase naglalakad ako pabaliktad since pasalubong ung hangin sa path namen. We got home naman safe, muka nga lang akong kawawa.(huhuhu)

*smiles* Ok na naexperience kona snow, New Year nalang then pwede nako umuwe.(heheh)

Thank you sa birthday greeting! (PH time) I love you so much! +muah+

Love lots,

Rian Ruiz (Belano)

.Day 83. Christmas in NY

dear Gelo Belano,

We celebrated Christmas Eve with just Sparkling Apple Cider at kung ano mang natirang food sa ref.(hehehe) Then we attended Christmas Mass (Spanish and English) and then bunawe nalang kme ng Christmas Lunch Chinese Take-out. (busog) Simpleng handaan lang na kame-kame lang. First time for me pero it was meaningful because I get to spend it with my parents and Tin. It feels nice lang to end the year this way. Im looking forward on spending next year's Christmas naman with you,hubby ko!

Look what I found in the grocery "Phineas and Ferb" yogurt!!!

I bought the entire pack, it just reminded me of you (ahahah)

Infairness it taste good my fave strawberry flavor, may mixed berries din. :)

Christmas afternoon picture taking:

I got my christmas gift a chainlink body-shoulder purse.

(well mas mura kesa CHANEL)

I miss you so much! Ilang days nalang I hope you'll never get tired of waiting for me.

I'm still waiting for the snow storm tonight! * * * * *

Baka mag casino nalang daw kme.hehehhe!

Back home we always celebrate Noche Buena at Tita Myr's house since all my pamangkins will be there. I remember nagtrip kame nila Ate P and Carlo and drove to Tagaytay, then when we got there sarado lahat. Ang bukas lang eh Pan de Manila. So kumain lang kme pandesal and 3 in 1 coffee. (haaay! memories)

.Day 71 - 73. Drama Queen Wifey

dear Gelo Belano,

I'm fine now, Naiyak lang talaga ako sa inis (lalo na pag pinagtutulungan ako). Again thank you for listening to my drama. You have been really supportive and understanding. May mga times lang talaga na I feel like people around me think I'm tamad, irresposible, happy-go-lucky, and a brat. Nakaka-frustrate lang when people close to you judge you. Well that's life kelangan ko lang hindi masyado magpaapekto sa mga critics sa life ko.

Neways, 10 days nalang Pasko na!

Lookie, me and Tin decorated our Christmas Tree (ain't it pretty?! may dalawa pa syang bantay.hehhe!)

Yesterday it snowed (brrrr! nasa below zero na temp dito) I went to the rooftop and checked how cold it is...Para akong nasa loob ng freezer!!! Onti palang snow and then umaraw din agad kaya natunaw na sila. Ayun po, I haven't tried to get out of the house...I feel weak and lazy during winter.

UPDATE: I'll be home by Feb. 2, 2011 @ NAIA 7pm (PH time)

Hubby ko, ingatan mo sarile mo dyan ha! Wag na masyadong clumsy. I know na hindi ka masyado cautious when it comes to your health and injuries. Pero seriously I'm worried bout you! Kahet na sugat lang yan. Ok? +hmmmmuah+ Love u,Love you Gelo Belano!!!

Love lots,

Rian Ruiz (Belano)

I know you don't really celebrate your birthday, but then I thought maybe you should.

Celebrate for 29 years of existence, for being a blessing to other people's lives, for making others feel loved. You are one of the few who is true and sincere. You are Makulit-Down to earth-Caring-Sweet-Loving Guy. I am so lucky that God gave me you. I love you so much! I'll see you soon...*Muah*

Syempre ikaw ang bida ngayon kase birthday boy kana soon! Sayang wala ako dyan, pero i'll make sure na memorable ang 29th birthday mo. :)

Tinag ako ni Tin sa isang picture namen nung fashion event. Then yung CEO ng event pinili pala nya yung pic namen na ilagay sa online magazine nila. (lookie) Yung bf kase ni Tin isa sa photographer dun sa event. (siguro kaya pinili nya kase kame lang Asians na andun sa event :P )

Naginquire na pala kame ni mama sa travel agency regarding the rebooking of my flight. Ang tentative date January 9, 2011 (January 10,2011 dyan ang dating). Sa monday kopa makausap yung agent na magaayos ng flight ko. I'll update you nalang po. (hihihi!)

Gumawa pala ako ng Waldorf Salad (apples,celery,grapes,walnuts in mayo dressing kagabe), nagustuhan ni mama and daddy. Ang comment ni mama pwede na daw ako mag asawa! (ang kulit..ahahaha! salad at pasta lang alam ko)

Ayun po! +hugises+ i love you so much!

.Day 63. ilang tulog nalang Pasko na

dear Gelo Belano,

Malapit na ang Christmas!!! Sorry I won't be there to celebrate it with you, pati sa birthday mo and birthday ko. Actually first time ko lang magstay dito ng December. First punta ko dito June-October 2005, Second October 2007 ,then now October-January 2010.

Yesterday, we went to church and stroll around the bazaarnear our apartment. Kakaaliw may mga kabayo and mostly mexican stalls (etong community kase namen madame mexicans and puerto rican). Kaya minsan feeling ko wala ako sa US rather nasa Mexico. (wala kang makikita na pure puti dito sa community namen). Actually dito sa NY iba-ibang lahi na talaga nakatira.(so diverse-kaya nakakaaliw naman and nakakainis din minsan)

Bumile na din pala kme ng Christmas tree (yung totoong tree). Mga 5 inches tall, nakakaaliw naman kase i love Christmas and the entire month of December..Now it feels better na seeing the tree!!!

During family meeting madame kame issues na napagusapn. Mga properties ng parents ko sa pinas. Mga future plans namen magkakapatid and sila din. Mas relieved lang ako now kase I get to open up my plans in the future and ayun naintindihan naman ni mama. (natuwa naman sya nung sinabe ko na ok lang naman sayo if hindi pa ako uwe and kampi ka sa kanya). But then I need to act regarding my situation , negotiate and change the plan again. She has an open mind now na eventually magkaka pamilya na ako and all that (big girls na ang tres marias nya).

Ayun excited na din ako to fix my life, grow up, decide on my own and live the life how I wanted it to be. Still thankful for all the support that my parents have been giving me. I thought na its time naman for me to work hard and return all the blessings.

Soon I'd be 26 na! I need to be independent and mature enough to stand on my own (lalo na financially!). I need to be a saver this time. :)

That's it for now...

I love you so much! +muah+

Love lots,

Rian Ruiz (Belano)
