When We Were Younger...I'm still young at heart...
Alrighty then...Merydith/In-in wants me to dig into my old photo album for some pictures when I was young. Being the good girl that I am, I did just that...hehe. Anyway, I'm one who likes to collect pics so I tried to salvage all those baby pics that I can salvage. Some have holes in them already but the people in the pics are still intact so I put them away for times like this. Here goes....
This first pic was taken in front of our old house in Pampanga where I grew up which makes me a Kapampangan. Although we grew up speaking Tagalog my Nanay being Bulakenya. I'm not sure how old I was here but I was very young. See the mini dress....ha!

This second one was taken in church. See the veil. Yeah, we used to put veils on when we were in church back then. See the mini again??? Hehe

This next picture was taken in Baguio. My father was assigned there for a few months so me and my youngest brother tagged along.

This picture was taken at the end of my Gr. 1. I was in the honor roll and of course got the most coveted 'ribbon'...susme! This was the start of my 'long hair' saga. My hair was way down my beee-hind until college. I had it cut for my college yearbook picture. I never really had the short short hair. The shortest was shoulder length. See my dress...it was still above the knee...ha!

This one was taken during my elementary graduation. Can you guess what I was doing? I was doing a 'Balagtasan'. Guess what? There was a power outage that night! Talk about bummer of all bummers. Actually, I was rejoicing inside because people couldn't see us while we were doing the Balagtasan. I was a nervous wreck, actually, I'm still a nervous wreck whenever I have to do something that involves public speaking.

Okay..this is me when I was pregnant...yep, I was covering it with my guitar. Nah, I was not covering. ..but I was really pregnant. I thought I'd put some not so recent pics here kasi you might think na I didn't grow up...hehe.

And this us now. With my hubby and our little one taken early this year. I didn't change much except for the weight....huhu.

wow.. ganda ng young girl mo ah! and u three look very great a family! laki na pala ng "trophy" mo! hehe!
tsege... till ur next post! let me tell yah, i so enjoyed this post of urs! :)
Recel: Naku maraming salamat sa mga tinuran mong mga salita. Dramatic 'no? Actually yung pics ko pinadala lang dito ng family ko after my husband requested them to. I tried to take of those baby pics kasi I know how easily they get lost in shuffles.
Sweet-D: Maraming salamat din. I also wish na ang ating friendship eh magtatagal kasi you're such a sweet person.
Tess: Naku oo nga pala at inabutan ka ng lahar. Sana naman may na salvage kahit paano. Sa 'ming magkakapatid, ako lang ata ang matiyagang nagtago ng pics. Thanks for visiting..
