T'was a day loaded with events and good happenings. 

Bernie, a brother who hails from Iloilo and is currently having training at a military camp in a nearby place, was given a moment to speak to us after the service. Soon he will be leaving for a new assignment in Mindanao so he wanted to address the church here prior to his departure. Alright, I thought to myself, but I had the feeling and a hint that he was onto something, yet of course I tried to keep that to myself. I looked around, and based on what I saw, everybody was seemed excited and eagerly anticipating what I have been anticipating. 

Soon after what we joked as an 8-page speech from him finally came what I was thinking all the while: He asked Sha-Sha to become his girlfriend! Gee! Love is in the air! Pagkahaba haba man ng pagsasalita, sa pag-a ask din ang tuloy! I could hear people (including myself) reacting and cheering in unison especially when SHA uttered her YES response to Bernie’s question! Sweeet! Everybody began to cheer…Wooot wooot!  

Bernie asked Sha "Can you be my girlfriend?" Sha said YES. We cheered.  We celebrated with the new(est) dating couple in the church CONGRATULATIONS!!!

*** Lunch was another thing that day. I had a sumptuous lunch with my best friend. Shredded adobo and sisig from Gerry's Grill - my best friend's fave :-). We still have time for further chit-chat before a despedida set that night, so we moved on for some coffee and drinks at a coffee shop where I had my strawberries and cream (my new favorite, plus a doughnut :-)

Thanks much best friend for a refreshing treat! Luveeet!

Finished the shredded adobo. My best friend's favorite sisig And my new favorite STRAWBERRIES & CREAM :-) plus, plus a doughnut
