私の愛の誕生日 (My Love's Birthday)

Image
Yesterday was hubby's birthday. In the morning, surprisingly, I wasn't feeling *meh* at all. I had a goal in mind. And that was to get home and bring some "special" breakfast before hubby goes to work. I wanted hubby to have the best-tasting pancake I had so far. The nearest Pancake House from where I work is at Makati Med (hospital). Hubby was kind enough to remark that the pancakes' taste are nothing compared with what we usually eat at McDo. He didn't finish everything and I ate the leftover cake. In the afternoon though, I still haven't decided on where to bring him for dinner. I just wanted to go some place where I wouldn't feel nauseous. I had something in mind though. Thankfully, when we got seated at Yabu, the scent of the place was pleasant enough for me. I smelled a mild citrus-y and perhaps tangy aroma and I expressed how it's not repulsive. We had kurobuta and hire set, and my latest discovery - edamame! We al...

June 5 (Friday) was probably the most gruelling day of my life in recent times. I bought two home pregnancy tests (HPTs) at Mercury Drug on my way home from my night job. When hubby left for work, I used one and voila - the second line appeared! This can't be - I thought to myself. I was diagnosed with polycystic ovaries in 2013, same month. The problem lies with my follicles/eggs not "popping" out. I seemed to be going through what I read as "false ovulation" - all this time.  My husband and I knew we won't be having an easy time conceiving. We once got help from the ob-gyn to help stimulate my hormones and induce "popping" the follicles. That didn't work. Since we didn't have enough time for all the lengthy procedures, we changed our plans - and just waited.  A month at my new work, I noticed my period was delayed for 5 days already. I kind of expected it. The change in people's daily routine can certainly alter the way o...

Sky 100 @ ICC Tower Hong Kong

Image
One of the places we visited in Hong Kong on our honeymoon in April 2012 was the sky100 observation deck at the International Commerce Center tower, one of the tallest buildings in the world.  We got a tour package from a local travel agency and our first day was supposed to be our city tour and Disneyland visit. We chose not to go to Disneyland that day and found ourselves trying out the MTR, the buses instead, until we reached West Kowloon. We had fun exploring for the first time, another city's public transport system.

It's mid 2013, what's up?
