Timeline : February 1, 2004

5:00am - Walking home from St. Peter after completing the
floral arrangements we made for the aisle for the 25th
wedding of Ong-Lim, a client.

5:45am - Dozed off

8:30am - Woke up and did the arrangements for the bouqet.
style was reminiscent of Lea's own wedding bouqet... it was
dark roses tied together. Very raw... very natural.

10:00am - Packed up, got ready for the mass!

10:30am - Arrived at St. Peter in time for Offertory (Arrgh)

11:00am - Asked Popoy to drive me to Makati to deliver the
bouqet. Glad he said Yes! Vangie and Kai agreed to come
too. So we all went to Forbes to deliver the flowers. Hirap
pala dumalaw sa Forbes... Had to wait a long time before we
entered! Finally, delivered the flowers.

12:00nn - Hungry na so we ate at Superbowl. Heavy Food!
Yum...

12:30am - Theresa Ong Lim called and asked me to cover up
the whole stems of the flowers. They didn't want pala the
stems to show. Got to go back and pick up the flowers.
Haay...

1:00am - Picked up the flowers. Buti naman this time we
were able to enter kaagad. I was their "ID"... hehehe

1:30pm - did the flowers. wrapped them in sinamay and
attached a silver ribbon. that did the trick.

2:00pm - rested... slept for a while too...

3:00pm - woke up and went to st. peter. practiced a few
songs in chinese. after this, it was a haze... briefed
those who offered, gave the flowers to the bridal
entourage, gave jeff the sinamay to accentuate the seat
where the couple will be seated, changed into my chinese
costume but since it was so wrinkled i had to find somebody
to iron it for me. buti na lang an ate from the kitchen
volunteered to do it for me. buti n lang cause the material
was linen and i really don't how how to iron it... anyway,
changed back to my shirt and went around the church to help
a bit, changed into the chinese costume again and finally,
canon in D was playing so it means the mass was about to
start... finally, normality!

5:30pm - After singing, had to rush off to Baclaran Church.
Have you ever stopped and notice the leaves swaying with
the branches? it's such a sight to behold. parang the
leaves are chimes and it's moving to the rhythm of the
wind... ang ganda.

6:00pm - Arrived at Baclaran Church and went to the
sacristy to test the powerpoint. Ang bait ng operator.
Sayang forgot the name pero she saw the slides and she was
touched... we showed pictures of aborted babies, fetal
development and slides of hope naman. Many people were
informed. Sabi sa akin ni kuya jimmy mga 10,000 people were
there. It really felt great to inform people about the
truth and to see them being moved.

8:30pm - RUSH, RUSH, RUSH! Had to rush to my house and get
changed... it was Aileen Chan's wedding... at EDSA Shang...

9:00pm - Changed into my pink sari. Waited for a taxi pero
ang hirap sumakay! Buti na lang my sister was there so she
drove me to Edsa Shang.

9:30pm - Arrived at Edsa Shang and met with Joni. Kakatawa
kasi I heard a bit of the program then goodbye na! =) But
at least nakapagpicture kami with Aileen (may evidence na
nakapunta ako)... and saw a few of my Bikol friends. Got a
souvenir (yehey!) ... it was a love song collection CD in a
cute bag with a butterly accent.

10:00pm - Home na me! Grabe sa bilis!

Although it was a LOOOONG day for me, I was so blessed pa
rin... Thank you God for being with me the whole day... I
offer all the thanksgiving, sacrifices for your glory!
