Our Weekend

I thought that since we had a very hectic holidays we get to rest for all the weekends of January. But I was wrong. Last Friday, Hubby and I were talking about how disappointed we are in our Olympus Digital Camera (which we weren't done paying full yet - SIP is ongoing) since it's been at the service center three times already! It was with us only for almost a year. Then Hubby suddenly suggested and said, Why don't we get an SLR? I thought he was joking. But since our anniversary is coming in the next couple of weeks, I thought of considering it (yes nag-pakipot pa ako! LOL!). You see, I've been wanting it for months!

So, I read Ate Jen's post about her purchasing her Rebel in Quiapo and tried calling Henry's last Saturday. After the call, Hubby and I then went to Quiapo. It was raining then but Hubby said, "Rain or Shine, we will get our camera!" LOL! Our trip was breeze (through MRT and LRT 1). We looked for Henry's and then asked for the Rebel. And guess what my friends? They only had 1 left! So Hubby was rushing to get it! Haha. Me on the other hand was trying to delay the time just in case something happens with the camera, etc. You know, I already had phobias with cameras (after purchasing the Olympus). So, yes, we finally purchased it, and you know what? after we purchased it someone was trying to inquire about it and looked like they wanted to buy it too! So, we got there at the RIGHT time. I guess this camera was indeed ours. Wuhoo!

The Rebel - Canon EOS 400D

So now both Hubby and I have our official anniversary gifts to each other. Yes, hati kme. LOL!

The next day we attended a children's party. It was Alexs' and Red's 1st and 3rd birthday in Caloocan. It was around 3PM so after the party we went to hear mass. The party was fun, although we didn't stay long because it started to rain and that it was held outside. Hubby wasn't feeling very well too.

I started back to work last Monday (January 14, 2008). It means that I had 1 month vacation from work. That explains why I haven't been blogging. I missed working (even from home) and I'm glad to be back working again.

Anyway, there a lot to look forward to again next weekend and I can't wait to share it here. Have a great week everyone!
