Froze for a while waiting for the guys to pick me up from the airport...from hot Cincy to frosty Sanfo. Jerry and Roehl were my officemates from Sara Lee, and I got to stay with Roehl for this visit. Since I had two cams and I have not loaded all pics yet, these are going to be a jumble of what I had taken.
Lunch at Ongpin with the two families and before I could even burp or yawn, off we went on a marathon tour of Sanfo..Whohoo!

yes, Sean Connery at "The Rock" with Nicholas Cage. This scene was when he was talking with his daughter, right?

No, but left her purse though. Seriously, I hope you find your heart in San Francisco, the romantic city by the bay.

ah..maybe I will pose that somewhere here...because on the way to the airport Roehl cracked a joke - sabi rin nya yun nga daw nangyari sa akin..imbis na "I left my heart in San Francisco.."...it became "I left my cards in San Francisco"...patawa...hahaha!

hi Choie! I hope you get to meet more of the people I have known in the future...am lucky naman when it comes to folk...most of them really turn out to be friends for life...so far wala pa namang maniac..*grin* except if maniac sa kain or inuman siguro...
I am also very happy to have met you and your family...with all the good things happening to me on this trip...kung i-balance out man with something bad to happen (kc am a great believer in balance of life)...it was acceptable for the credit card wallet to be misplaced...
now...only..if may darating dito na hearthrob sa Pinas para ibalik sa akin ang wallet na yon..aatakihin ako sa puso...*wink*

Mga tall, dark, and handsome pala ang type mo. I have two of those qualities: dark and handsama (ang sama). Pasado ba?

e kasi naman, BNK, alam mo iyang si Cat, I discovered, masyadong generous...meron na ngang ipapakilala yung mga friends nya sa kanyang eligible bachelor, nung may narinig na damsel in distress na kelangan din ng lovelife, gustong ipasa yung guy na meant for her to this other girl...
Balita ko may crush na nga sa kanya! tama ba yon, Cat??
But then again, since I also don't know the guy, I don't know if he is anything close to "tall, handsome in the dark..."

I just placed it sa calendar ko...for either May 17 or 18. I haven't had time to blog and I wanted to at least remember the key activities for the week I was there so I just outlined what happened per day.
Oo nga e...tapos si Sir B din..what can I say? misery loves company hehehe...
joking aside, its just one of the things which makes my visit to Sanfo very memorable...at least nawala sya pagpauwi na...of course, di na ako nakapagshopping...which is not too bad of a thing too..hehehe...

naku Choie, wag kang maniwala dyan kay Roehl...joker yan...mga taga Sara Lee naka-assign sa operations/tech support before have a very weird sense of humor...at di ako kasama non (disclaimer kaagad)...
besides, parang love of his life si Roehl eh...(buti di naman yata masyadong nag multiply si Kuya Roehl dito...otherwise..sasabihin nya - "mismo!") ehehehe

thanks Kaiyen! the city by the way is always beautiful no matter who the photographer would be...so am at an advantage...
btw, off-note lang konti...naninibago ako dito sa posting natin na naka group according to the comment one replies to...is it just me or do you also feel mahirap ma trace ano yung bagong post..I preferred the previous way..at least all I have to do is look at the most recent entry..pwede naman ma quote original message ah...

I suggest you filter the replies so that you only see those postings with replies you haven't seen yet, and not all entries. This way, each time you go to "My Multiply" you only see those postings with replies that you haven't read yet.
Here's how you do it:
Go to "My Multiply," click on "Custom"
Under Custom Filter, in People in your Network, check YOU, CONTACTS
In Filter by Type: All Posts, check SHOW ONLY UNREAD
Finally, click OK

Cat that's a good idea..me I left my hear in SFO..that's why when I found the DVD of the " Almost Heaven" with Reese Spoon...I bought it at once cause all scenes were taken mainly in SFO..and almost like fairytale colours..
I forgot to tell you that somewhere at the passage where this Sourdough is, straight ahead, may Chinese who makes this Leather Brush technique and writes one's name with letters in like a tree or an animal..I got one for Anna and Julian..

hello! its always nice to have friends of friends wander around in my site.
No, I'm not with Sara Lee anymore. Actually I was with the direct selling division of Sara Lee in the Philippines. It used to be called "House of Sara Lee" and yes, competed with Avon etc. I regret to say I am a bit forgetful na nowadays (chalk it up to age) but I don't think I came across Angie's name. Was she in a particular department like HO (Pasong Tamo) or one of the branches? There is also Sara Lee manufacturing (Hanes at Playtex ba yon?) at atbp pa...
I heard though that the direct selling business was purchased by Tupperware...
