Rainbow Bridge
February 23, 2008Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.
When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.
The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.
You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.
Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together….

the puppies died
Nag-labor si tria kaning madaling araw. It was my dog’s first time. Since we just moved in to a new house wala ako masyadong alam na vet clinic na malapit. it was around four am, when I saw something coming out, I panicked. I rushed her to a clinic, which was just a block away. The vet used to sleep there. This time walang vet. So we moved to another (sa my e.rod), luckily, there was a vet available to attend my dog. binigyan sya ang pangpahilab, which was injected. After a few minutes ‘di pa din lumalabas completely, so hinatak ng vet yung puppy. The puppy was adorable. Female red minipin. Not breathing. pinunasan ny ang bulak, i was looking for something na panghigop sa nose. kaya lang bulak lang meron sya.the vet said na patay daw yun. naisip ko, siguro naipit or something kaya patay.
Then came the next pup. nahihirapan yung si tria kaya another injection. Something was out again, a balloon watery thing, pinilit uli hatakin ng vet, pumutok tapos tubig yung laman. sobrang worried na ko, sabi ko wag na hilahin, kase nasasaktan yung baby ko. After a few minutes, hinatak uli, may bilog pa na kulay darkdark red, I was worried na baka pumutok uli. nagtanong ako, “doc, di ba baka mamatay yung puppy pagpumutok yan” hinihila parin, then may intervals tapos hila uli. pumutok nga, blood na yung lumabas. takot na ko nun. tapos hinihila parin nya, sabi nya deformed daw yung puppy. kaya he keeps on pulling. then nakalabas na. napaiyak ako, when I saw the puppy’s head crushed. Male black/tan sa kakahila… then i begged na half na lang payment, kase dead naman yung puppies. pumayag naman, tapos pinapirma ako ng waiver, di ko na masyado naintindihan, sa antok…pagod.. Depressed…
then i rushed my dog sa vet nya before back in our old place. pinakita ko yung puppies sabi nung vet kamamatay lang daw nung red. buhay daw yung nung nilabas kaya lang di daw binigyan ng oxygen. kase di naman daw talaga minsa himihinga yung mga pups paglabas, you have to revive it pa. tapos yung isa pinilit hilahin. its obvious.
Its so depressing… its my first time sana to have puppies from my dog. i have prepared things the puppies might need. sobrang excited panaman ako. Since wala pa kaming baby ng husband ko, sobrang mahal na mahal ko yung dog ko. It’s our baby’s puppies, kaya were keeping all of it. kaya lang this happened.

preggy tria
February 19, 2008
It’s Tria’s 61st day of pregnancy and I’m super nervous to the nth power. Feels like I’m the one giving birth. I don’t know what to do. Grrrr… I hate this feeling! I can’t help the always-tense feeling even at work. We’re always looking for the possible whelping signs so that we can rush her to the nearest vet available.
Some people advised me to have her board the vet clinic so that anytime she gives birth, the vet will be there to assist. But I don’t want her to get stressed, because they might just leave her in a cold cage while waiting for it. She’ll be more comfortable here sleeping in her bed.
I have prepared everything. The vitamins, right food that’s best for the puppies and stuff that I think is needed… puppy bed, towels, bag (which includes the taxi fare and house keys) that she’ll be in on her way to the vet. So that if ever I’m not home when it happens, the maid can bring her to the vet.
Call me over exaggerated. But I think it’s the mutual feeling of first time moms (or should I call grandmom?) of my ever dearest furbaby. Her x-ray says that she’ll have two, but its not that clear, Bryant says that she’ll probably have three. But for me, I don’t care of how many puppies she’ll bring into this world as long as they’re all healthy.

"i wanna be a supermodel"
February 1, 2008“I don’t care what my teacher says
I’m gonna be a supermodel
And everyone is gonna dress like me
Wait and see
When I’m a supermodel…”
First stanza yan ng paborito naming kanta ng best friend kong si kookaii, when were in high school. Inspired by the movie “clueless” (ang corny noh, yan ang usong movie nun, ‘di ka in pag ‘di mo pa napanood yan!), sabay naming pinanangarap na maging ka level sina tyra banks at naomi campbell (sama mo na rin si alek weck).
Late November last year when Kitten (also a high school friend, now works for a bridal magazine) texted me, pictorial daw…
“saan?”
”…San Juan.”
“kelan?”
“ …bukas. bring white tube, hair and make-up lang for tatin’s story…”
“Sigurado ka? ako?”
“Oo ikaw!”
Hmmmm… “Sure! experience lang!”
The next day, I asked Mark (seatmate ko sa office), na ihatid ako sa studio after the show.
Late na ko nun,walang kasama, walang kausap.
Pinaupo na ako sa harap ng salaming maraming ilaw para ayusan… pang-model!
Nakakahiya. Ako lang ata ang hindi model. Ang galing nilang mag-pose.
Nyaiks… wala akong tube. Hmmm… improvise! Tinupi ko yung sando ko. Presto! Tube na!
Ako na… ‘di ko alam gagawin. Buti na lang magaling mag-motivate yung photographer. Ang gaganda ng picture ko sa monitor.
Next session… ako na uli. Motivated na. Parang manikang madaming nakatutok, sinisuklayan, minemake-upan, inaayusan… sarap ng feeling…
Iingitin ko si kookaii.
