Quarter Life Musings

It’s my parents’ 28th wedding anniversary today. It’s quite a feat you know. I can’t even go beyond the 3-month mark with my relationships haha! I think their marriage worked because my dad is all too understanding, minsan to the point of being taken for granted. He loves my mom to death that I think he’ll pick her any day over me and my brother. I think that’s the secret to a lasting marriage - the guy has to let the girl take the reins, or at least let her think that’s what he’s doing. Then again, it’s only pure love that will drive a man to do that. Kudos to my dad! I’d be one of the luckiest women on earth if I can still find someone like him in this lifetime.

I think I’m a really bad daughter for not getting them anything tsk tsk… Last Thursday I had a Eureka moment; I thought of giving them a sketch of themselves. Then I realized that it’s TWO DAYS before their anniversary, I have yet to find one of their better pictures together and I have no idea how much it would cost. My brother said his future dad-in-law (naks) can sketch daw and he’ll ask how much it’ll cost. It will take at least a week before we get it. Bottomline, I haven’t found a good pic yet! Sigh. I hope they won’t mind if it’s a tad bit late.

My bro’s at the Fedex Subic hub for a meeting or something (or maybe he just felt like shopping for PX goods, I dunno) so it was only me who joined my parents for dinner. We went to MOA just to buy a new showerhead for the bathroom and found ourselves trying out Tokyo Cafe on the ground floor. Nothing fancy, and it wasn’t bad for its price range. The display by the door definitely lured us into trying it. We had the Demi Hamburg, Garlic and Shrimp Pasta and Chicken Barbecue Pizza. DEE-LISH! To cap it off, we had 2 kinds of crepe - Choco Strawberry and Manila Mango. Definitely a better alternative to Cafe Breton’s pricey selections! I was full, but not to the brink of puking or anything like that. Try it yourself

Before going home, we stopped by Chocolat and I bought the Chocolate Caramel Cake for tomorrow’s little celebration. Sheesh. Dieting is really way out of the question! It’s my lola’s birthday on the 21st and she’ll have a party here and my dad’s birthday is on the 23rd. Sigh…
