Lopez wedding: The youngest son of GALS

Most of my friends know who Tito Jim is. He is my mom’s younger brother and my youngest brother who is 5 years older than me. We basically grew up together with my cousins. We call that older child we used to play with our Tito. From Hip-Hop music to Rock music, riding the bicycle and skateboard, crossline, kalokohan & all.

New Year 2005

And then there's Paraiso ni Tito Jim. We felt like hanging out with him is like discovering a new paradise; paradise of reality. Paraiso! is something my cousins and I made up. It may sound as an excuse, but for us, it’s like seeing what’s ahead of us while being in tune with the current moment and having fun.

A glimpse of Paraiso in 2005

The elders used to ask, "Ano ba yang Paraiso na yan?"
We simply answer, "Ang realidad!" 

...And then Tito Jim told us that he'll be marrying his last girlfriend, April.

KCAT CAN: Our Best Friend's Wedding

Our best friend's wedding

I am so blessed because all of the close friends that I knew from when I was growing up are still the same people whom I call friends.

The lyrics “For good times and bad times, I'll be on your side forever more. That's what friends are for,” exactly describe the friends that I have. They grow in number but none of them ever left and empty their spot in my heart. And among these best people in my life are my longest and closest best friends Michelle and Daisy.

Blissful September

The month of September was full of celebrations and I can foresee that there will be a lot more happenings and celebration in the coming months until this year ends..

In the evening, there was a surprise birthday celebration for Mother Banix, Tita Ate Bel, prepared by Kariz, Kayze Batching and Kathreen (even though she's currently in Japan).. Of course, the GYA peeps were the visitors and not to forget the Tamagochi Katren Banix who is always present.
