PINOY GATHERING AT RUEBEN'S 5TH BIRTHDAY

Happy 5TH Birthday Rueben!

First things first, Rueben is the first son of my dearest friend Raquel here in Malaysia. Eto kami ↓↓↓ nung 2010 sa Singapore ☺☺.

L-R Raquel, YoursTruly

We've been friends since 2009, we met here in Malaysia, then 2010 she moved to SG. From then on, tuloy pa din ang friendship namin hanggang sa nakapag-asawa na sya at nagkaanak, ngayon may 2 beautiful boys na sya ^.^ Did I say she's one of my dearest friends? hehehe, dearest talaga ^.^ And in addition, magkumare kami. Mas matanda ako kay Mars but she spoils me like her younger sister. She's beautiful inside and out. Thanks Mars!

Last saturday, together with other Pinoys/families here in Muar, we drove to Johor Bharu(169 km from Muar) to celebrate Rueben's 5th birthday.

With 4 cars and a total of 16 people, we started to hit the road at around 2 pm.

This is us ⇓⇓⇓, one of the four cars.

Team Shades! hahahaha
With our wide smiles hehehe
L-R Dennis, Rene, YoursTruly, Flor

We made a pit stop at Machap R&R- Rehat Dan Rawat in Bahasa- in English it's Rest and Treat.

It's one thing that we like the most when travelling here in Malaysia, they have R&R along the road where you can rest, take bathroom breaks and if hungry, buy some snacks and refreshments. Also for your car petrol topup/refill and inflate your tires.

After reaching Austin Towers Condominium Club House(the venue), as Pinoy Kaugalian, tulong tulong kami sa set-up. Joining our creative minds and helping hands, we finished setting up the place with happy smiles and full of laughters. 

It's Chow time! After being busy setting the place, it's time to eat! Buffet style. The most awaited moment. Kainan na!

Ayan, nakakain na kami ^.^ kaya kulitan time na, kuwentuhan, tawanan at picture-ran na hehehe.. Pose dito, pose doon. Nakatayo, nakaupo, lahat nakangiti. We're all born to be actors and actresses, always ready to pose and smile whenever there's a camera ready to capture every moment.

Before heading back to Muar, we decided to have a coffee and choco break. It's Starbucks Time! Kanya-kanyang hanap ng puwesto. Kuwentuhan ulit. Time to charge-up our needed caffeine for the day. 

But we did not stayed there for too long, because it's a bit late and still have a long way to reach Muar. After some clicks, we went to hit the road again. We arrived home at around 1:30 AM, after confirming that everyone reached home safe and sound, it's time to hit the bed and take a rest ^.^

In a nutshell.
      Whenever you're given the chance to gain a friend/s, grab it by the hand. Put your heart into it. You may never know when will be the next time that you'll have this great chance again. It's a two way relationship and differences is a part of it. I am happy to have this chance with my Mars and with my other dear friends. I may not have a long list of them but the most important is I have the true ones.
    Thank you!
