Pre-New Year surprises

Cerrone came all the way from his place to have lunch with us.
It's very nice of you to do this Cerrone. Thanks for being our family and friend here. Happy New Year to you and your family! Our warmest hello to your pretty mom. We hope she'll get over the slight car accident soon.

Wishing Agnes was with us too.
But there's always next time right? Awesome sushi and seafood lunch! Thanks alot. We'll do this again okey? Heheheh...

After the lunch, Cerrone, My LAA and JB went to Brian's place to help put together a new road bike. While I rushed for downtown NYC to meet the family of my former CIE students who are here, state-hopping for the holidays.
Gosh! I'm sitting on a dining table again!

A.J. Emit and I.
AJ was in my Global History and Economy Class in Centre for International Education SY 1999-2000. We went to Baguio together with the rest of Level 12 to attend the National Rizal Youth Leadership Institute in 1999.
And now, 8 years after, we're here in Chinatown, Manhattan. Just awesome! Thanks JMJ.

The Spoiled Princess in my Friendster network. AJ's lil sis who was also in my Economics and Entrepreneurship Class in CIE. G, what was the product you made and sold then?

AJ and his cousin Mark from Columbia, MD---in the subway.Getting an E train from 51st Street Lex means going down this steep escalator.

I have given up asking my holiday to be people-free. After that humbling homily I decided to just enjoy the gift of people. Thank you Lord for good friends! May their New Year be blessed.
