it's 2005!

the following day, it was back to gotcha... although we had dong & randy open the store, we came in after lunch together with my family who wanted to drop by gotcha before they went home to the province. especially my younger brother junggy who hadn't seen the store yet. afterwards, we decided to bring them to glorietta so they could walk around and maybe buy stuff that they needed.

they were impressed with the landscaping in greenbelt 3 and said that it compares to other malls they've seen here and in the states. junggy said that he prefers greenbelt to megamall because of the wide open space, trees and walkways. i do too.

then we parted ways at around 4 p.m. they didn't want to arrive in cabanatuan at such a late hour especially with the new year ahead. so ricky & i trooped back to gotcha.

after closing, we were still billeted at edsa shangrila but we went to his sister's house for our media noche. i sampled the soup they cooked using the bones of the roasted calf ala bulalo at grabe, malasang-malasa, iba talaga! ang sarap ...

after dinner, ricky played a couple of games with his nephews on the PS2 then we went back to the hotel. we watched the festivities on tv (parties of the different networks) while checking out the fireworks displays that we could see from our hotel window. we were together for the new year, calling up family and texting friends. it was our first new year together as husband and wife.
