It's About Time... Thanks! ^_^

Farewells...

Are not happy moments.

It's painful to say goodbye to someone who's been special to you. I hope this ending will be a start of a new me. A stronger me. As I pass on to you the last words and acts, I hope I have been a significant thing also in your life.

Goodbye Black Bunny... T_T

A Christmas Blessing... XOXO ^_^

Christmas day...

I heard her moving around her bin. I thought "Nag-minaldita nasad ay." So I left her alone and slept again.

12 noon... Looked at the bin and saw something on her belly. Took a closer look. Waaaaaaaah! It's a baby! I peeked over the small opening of the bin, saw three more babies.Waaaaaaaah! What to do?! What to do?! Immediately texted him.

Nanganak na si xoxo! Wat to do?! Wat to do?! X_x

He replied...

Leave her alon for a week or 2. Pila kabook hoglets? Make sure nga naa xay daghan fud nd water. Tagake pud og worm iya cage. 2 lang guro.

Ah okey. So I did everything he said. Food and water supply. Check! Everything's fine. Good job Xoxo and thank God for the safe delivery! Four cute hoglets for Christmas... ^_^

P.S.

Actual pictures to follow. Don't wanna stress out Xoxo. ^_^

Christmas: A Season of Forgiveness and Joyful Tidings

Christmas... A season of giving? A season where we forgive and forget? A season of joyful celebration... One of the most anticipated days of the year. 

Family gatherings. 

Gifts from loved ones. 

Noche buena.

Fruitcake.

Whistle bombs and Judas' belts.

Kissing under the mistletoe.

Kids waiting for Santa.

Amidst all of these, let's not forget the celebrant today, Jesus Christ. Happy birthday Papa Jesus! Christmas wouldn't be CHRISTmas without you. ^_^

May all of us have Christmas in our hearts. Forgive those who have wronged you. Give with all your heart with no expectations and regrets. Bring happiness to our family and loved ones.

Merry christmas everyone! 

Feliz navidad todos! 

Kurisumasu omedetou minasan! 

Maligayang pasko sa iyong lahat! 

Maayong pasko kaninyong tanan!

Because christmas trees also need to have a nice christmas sometimes, not just be part of it. ^_^

All I Want For Christmas Is You... ♥

Dear Black Bunny,

All I want for Christmas is a sweet kiss and a bear hug from you. I guess it's too much to ask for...? At least I tried. 3 days more to go! :)

Get well soon! ^_^


Love,
Abriella

Guess Who's Back?

Dear Bunny,

Guess who's back in my life? Nope, it's not Nick.

It's Red. It's been more than a year that we didn't see each other. Last time we saw each other, we were not in good terms. And he came back to ask if I've already forgiven him or not.

I forgave him a long long time ago already. Forgive and forget. And he told me that he missed me. I was shocked when I received a call from him last night and we talked for almost 5 hours. It felt nice hearing his voice again. We even ate breakfast together after my shift.

This is getting quite interesting... hmmm...

Love,

Abriella

Is This Farewell?

Hi Bunny,

I’m bushed. *sigh*

That’s the last time. Every time he makes me happy whenever I’m with him, he always does things after that that makes me want to cry. The year’s about to end and Christmas is in the air. It’s about time I make myself happy, at least for now. Is this farewell? We’ll see…

My bunny, please remind me if I'm out of control again. Yes, please make it the last time already.

Still hangin’,

Abriella T_T

Incubus is rock…

The Cure and REM are vintage…

The Used is so college…

Parokya ni Edgar is swabe…

Eraserheads is the inspiration…

Our Sweet Secret Escape

In my pursuit of happiness, I wanted to escape somewhere. This is one of the things I wanted to do before 2011 ends. Before Nick arrives. He doesn’t want the naughty me. So escaping reality will help clear my mind and hopefully my conscience as well. Ergo, to Wonderland I go.

On my way to Wonderland, I met the black bunny. He became my companion for this secret escape. We left reality and went to south of Wonderland. Feeling the sea breeze, the fishy friends companion, and found refuge under a bargained Nipa hut. Left everything behind in a spur speck of a decision. Nobody cared anyway.

From north, I went directly to the south. Told some lies and left without a trace after the lies. Does this count as being naughty? I hope Nick won’t hear about this. Phone turned off, itunes on shuffle and repeat mode, and Ace’s death in the Great War on the other windowpane. I was very careful of not getting tanned to avoid the questions when I get back. Good that Mr. Sun was sympathetic that time and hid his pride behind Mrs. Cloud.

The black bunny became so confident with the sea, after flashingly displayed his newly acquired skills in the water. Flap flap flap. Paddle paddle paddle. Plok plok plok. Almost got poked by a spiny black sea urchin hiding under a rock. He was not lucky with the hook-line-sinker technique so he resorted to a more primitive way that includes letting me chase the fishes towards him and scooping them onto the sand. We watched older people went back to their younger selves and built sand castle. There were a couple of Russians too. I realized that Sims talked like them.

After three days and two nights in our secret place in the south of Wonderland, it is now time to say goodbye. We will definitely be back, if given a chance like this again. It sure was fun, that sweet escape of ours. And definitely one of the highlights of my 2011. Now preparing for my come back this Monday at Q. What a good way to start my December.

The Rape of Athena

Now that Tsoko’s home, he brought with him Xoxo. Preparing to have their own set of litters. Seven days and it's solitary confinement for Xoxo. In my room.

But as we were expecting Tsoko and Xoxo to do the deed, we were disturbed by the sudden commotion in Jiggy and Athena’s home. Jiggy’s getting hot and Athena’s not. 

Athena in distress and Jiggy at his horniest!

Meanwhile, Tsoko’s feeling lazy today and Xoxo is just on the other corner. *sigh*

Weebee My Bunny! I missed you, big time! Ice Queen, come back!

Hi Bunny,

Here I am again.

Writing.

Trying to ease the troubles in my mind... and heart. And as always, i need you to hear me out. Please?

This year, I learned to love a lot of things. Things that the Ice Queen hated…

I loved the mountains. The mountains and me fell in love with each other during the “love month”, February. Opeak is the name of the first I loved. Being the highest of Ubec, he took me to the peak of what became one of my addictions. It was not the best days to trek I must say. I even swore I’m not doing it again. But after the skies calmed and the fog cleared, I saw the beauty. His beauty. And then it was love at first sight. After Opeak came more rivals for the Ice Queen: Babag, Budlaan, Kan-irag and his majesty of the Visayas, Kanlaon. Kanlaon my love, I miss you! I’ll come back for you… soon! ^_^

I loved the art of Capoeira. Looking for a gift for myself after surviving 24 years on Earth was not easy. A new dress? A book? Can’t really find something I fancied that time. The Ice Queen visited me and I felt apathy engulfing me again. So at the minute her highness looked the other way, I thought of learning something new. Cooking? Nah, still not ready for that. Dancing? Hmm… My two left feet are still weak for dancing. Then I saw Eddie Gordo and got excited with his moves. The week after my birthday, I enrolled myself to Capoeira lessons. The next thing I knew, I was doing the Ginga. And it’s one lousy Ginga. Joined a few rodas and had my first Batizado last July. I am now known as Cigana, a.k.a. the gypsy after joining the Festa Do Mundo last last week. Ye Capoiera! Salve!

I loved a black bunny.  Have you remembered the times I called on you and you were too busy in Wonderland? A black bunny came and took me away. He was young and high-spirited. He also loved the mountains and the great outdoors. I noticed him before this year’s Freedom Climb, and thought that he was a cute bunny. Didn’t really imagined he’ll get close to me with the Ice Queen around. He came to me when he needed somebody to talk to. I listened. And after that, my life went 360 degrees. The Ice Queen left me. My life became complicated. Just constantly waiting for the inevitable to happen. Stupidity at its best! Slap me now or forever hold your peace. *sigh*

I love my Peewee, Jello, Jiggy, Athena and Tsoko. I remembered Mucha, my ever so cute hamster. I missed taking care of cute furry animals. Ironically, I bought a gecko and named him Jello. Jello the gecko. But I wanted someone I could cuddle or play with. Well Peewee is there, but he’s off limits in the house.  They’re not good friend with lola dearest. So Jiggy came. Young and fragile Jiggy. Now I have someone to play with. But he got lonely. I brought him Athena, and are now happily together. My family just keeps getting bigger and bigger. Tsoko on the other hand is currently not with me. He’s away doing an errand for the black bunny. I can’t wait to bond with Tsoko. I’m missing a lot of loved ones. I’m missing a lot of feelings too. How it feels to be hugged, to be cared. To be loved.

And the Ice Queen went away. But I want her back. Please help me call her back. Please? I need her help now too. Of course I need your help Bunny, but I also need hers. Sorry for letting you listen again to my rants Bunny. I missed you too, big time! Thanks for the time my Bunny. ^_^

Love,

Abriella

P.S. December dear, please be gentle with me. So looking forward for Nick's arrival. ^_^
