I loved the ambiance though. Wrong choice of food nga lang talaga.
I chose the Bellini’s Set Menu for Valentine’s. It turned out to be like a sampler of what they offer normally in the restaurant, a bit of that and a bit of this. We were surprised how it was presented. I expected more. I guess, bottom-line is natakam lang ako sa binigay nilang food because of the quantity they served us. And the restaurant was quite busy that night and they were under staff. Jet though, still managed to find the funny side of our experience. And he vowed not to return again in that restaurant. I, on the other hand still wants to experience the real Bellini’s, the one I read on the reviews, the one that makes them say the best kept secret of Cubao…
(True enough, I found my vindication a week later!)
After our V date, we went to Gateway Mall bought a few stuff and went home. Jet, had a good time teasing me, “Bellini’s Bellini’s ka pa dyan ha! Sana nagbarbecue nalang tayo sa kanto o kaya nag Pares nalang tayo o kaya nagluto ka nalang…” Hahaha! At least he loved their sweet red wine and I loved their dessert! :p
There’s always a next year… A better Valentine’s date I hope… Hehehe!

Last Friday, Jet and I celebrated our fourth year anniversary.
Four years… another year of being together, having and loving each other.
Last Friday, Jet and I celebrated our fourth year anniversary.
Four years… another year of being together, having and loving each other.
Nothing special was planned. Okay lang sa akin. What’s important was, we got to celebrate it on the exact date. Luckily his rest day was Fri and Sat, good enough for me. We, as always, reminisced what happened the day we met. I remember I still have the receipt of our first date ever. I even kept the clothes I wore the first day we met! Maski luma na… Corny ko talaga! Hahaha! Of course I never told him about the clothes or else walang kamatayang alaskahan nanaman yan…
We went to Tiendesitas to buy the meds of my dogs. We strolled around the tiangge area. He was looking for something pala to commemorate our fourth year. I didn’t want any jewelry or anything fancy. Then he saw the scarf hanging from one of the stalls. He asked me if I like any one of them. I side I like the blue one and he chose the green one… And that was it… Our gifts… Hehehe! Mukha nga lang syang rebel pagsuot nya. I guess, nasa nagdadala lang yan at kung kaya mo panindigan. Why not!
Then we went to Bonifacio High Street our favorite place to walk around and people watch. We had an early dinner at TGIF. I was not in the mood to go on a food trip kasi I had colds. Kaya hindi ko rin naman malalasana masyado. Sayang lang to spend that much. He enjoyed naman his Grilled Chicken and I loved naman my Tossed Tomato Basil Chicken Pasta… On diet ba kami? Chicken? Hehehe! After dinner, we walked around, took pictures and people watched. I dog watched actually.. Hehehe! There was this big Minpin and I couldn’t believe it grew that big. I mean, it looked like a big log with tiny legs. I wouldn’t let my babies grow big like that and have them suffer from arthritis... Small dogs like that are not meant to grow that big. I pity the dog. I hate the owners who overfed their pets as if it is healthy and cute. Hindi naman kasi sila tao para makapagsalita kung ano nararamdaman nila. I mean, mahirap pag sila ang nagkasakit. Buti kung tao yun at pwede magsalita kung ano masakit sa kanila. There was also this beagle that acted as if he is a baby. You wonder tuloy who is the real master… Nagkakaron tuloy ng personality confusion if he’s a dog or a human. Hehehe! As if I’m not guilty of this! Well, before I was! Nakakaawa kasi eh… So I let them be nalang…
After, we just drove around the metro. Before going home I bought a cake and a few stuff for Nanay.
If it weren’t for our anniversary, I really didn’t want to go out anymore. Actually, for the last few months, we wanted to just spent the day at home, order in food or I’ll cook something and just watch TV or DVD in my room and Jet would sleep over and that’s it. I guess when you’ve been together for so long and you’ve been around already, going out to gimik places loses its appeal na.
Every now and then though, we like to go out of the metro, drive to Tagaytay, Laguna, Batangas, or try out new restaurants or just sit in our favorite coffee house. Juts be still together.

Four years… who would have thought I would last this long in a relationship (my mantra). I never did. Every years we get to celebrate it, really leaves me in wonder. I mean, I am capable of making something work with someone pala. Although there are times that I become all that bitchy and Jet hates me when I turn into one. He just ignores me and keeps his cool. Something that I know plays a great part of keeping this relationship sane. Hehehe!
I think Communication, Trust and Respect are the three main component of a relationship. And Love is entirety of these three. Jet and I talk about anything and everything we could think of. I’m not afraid to speak my mind out with him, I’m not afraid he’ll judge me or he’ll criticize my opinion. I talk he listens and vise versa. I trust him with all my heart and soul. I threw out my paranoia years ago. And I’m glad I did. Though sometimes I like to tease him about some girls and act like a jealous bitch. That brings up the spice a level higher… Hehehe! But I know naman in his heart he only has his eyes on me. And of course I respect him being a man that he is. I know there was a time that what I want, I get. Almost being like the man in the relationship, always in command. Years of being with him, knowing him more and believing in him, he tamed me more than anything else.
We’re not a perfect couple. Nothing is smooth sailing, not unless you work on it. We still have moments of not looking at the same direction. But it’s much lesser now. We’re quieter. Not unless boredom hits me and I create this ruckus that makes him crazy. Hehehe!
What I learned from this relationship is, admitting that you are wrong and saying sorry doesn’t make you less of a person. And it is also important that you have your own time for yourself and so does he. Everyday and each day you spend with him, love is the reason why. You love him and you want and need to be with him…
Hay… Love… Corny ko na…

Yesterday, I was still nursing my cold when Tet sms’d me that she was online; I was also but in invincible mode… We talked about our life again and stuff…It’s been a while since we talked. Then she asked if I want to go out later that afternoon for coffee… I also messaged Jai if she wants to come along and she did after daw ng binyag na pupuntahan nya, so she’ll just follow us nalang.
Tet and I have this thing when ever we’re together. We couldn’t decide where to go. So I quickly said let’s try Mogwai in Cubao Expo. I heard it’s a nice place. I just want to check it out. Mogwai is co-owned by Erik Mati. Good food and they have this theater on the second floor where in customers could see a movie. We were there from 5:30pm till 8:00pm. Jai was running late. Then we decided to transfer to Bellini’s also in Cubao Expo. I wanted to try it again to prove Jet that we we’re just unlucky the first time we went there. Jai arrived around 8:30pm… We were seated at the area that I wanted Jet and I to be, it has a nicer ambiance there. And I love the decoration and all… Too much to look at and I love it… Hehehe! We were in our own corner. We had a good laugh about our life and everything under the sun. Jai being horny and all… Me being sick but still craving for more food… Tet, just being herself… Who loves being crazy in the camera. We ordered good nice comfort food. Love the pasta and the pizza was something different. Love the fresh crust and how sweet the onions were. Plus! If you asked for a hot sauce, you’ll be given an olive oil with chilies in it – too hot! The appetizer… Salmon in Crostinis… love love love the sweet taste of the salmon against the very tasty butter and slightly toasted bread. Hay…. Sabi nga ni Tet, we already had our dinner at Mogwai pero ginawa lang naming appetizer yung grilled lapu-lapu! Hehehe! Food trip talaga ito!
Good food with good old friends… We left Bellini's at 10:30pm and went to Starbuck's AliMall for coffee before finally going home at 12...
