This was inspired by a painting I saw at the Marina Mandarin Hotel Singapore,where we stayed last January, 2011. Since I couldn't afford to buy the painting that was on exhibit, I decided to make my own version of the three ballerinas.

My thoughts.......

Three friends ... In high school, I had two lovely ladies as my constant companions, Aya and Mitchie. The three of us were always laughing at the corniest jokes or the most insignificant trivial things, simple fun. After college, they both left for greener pastures and I was left behind in Manila. I got reunited again with them last June 2010. I was at the PAL check in counter at the San Francisco airport , waiting for my flight back to Manila, ...when I heard girls giggling... My two lovely bff's were right there at the check in counter, waiting for me and 'giggling'. We only had a few minutes to chat and take photos. But those were very precious moments. As soon as I boarded the plane bound for Manila, I started to cry. I already missed them. I said " I left my heart at the San Francisco airport." =[

Three more friends.... Dr. Aimee, Dr. Olive and Dr. Joey. My personal physicians. They are not just friends but family. They helped me take care, manage, 'treat' my ailing Nanay. Nanay suffered all the complications of Diabetes Mellitus.

These wonderful individuals , accomplished renowned physicians in their fields of expertise, were always around to support and help me, even listen to me cry all night. Thanks my dearest doctor friends... I miss you so much !!!! { i hope to find a nice photo of the three of you together , please send me one} =]=]=]

Dr. Sandy Alinas (ninang of Alvin), Dr. Lilet Galban, & Dr. Susan Academia... my dearest truest friends in dentistry. I used to go out with others, but through the years, I have dropped some from my 'real friends' list'. Only these three ladies have stayed on. They understand my moods, have kept a comfortable distance , accept and love me warts and all... fats and all. Hope to see you girls soon. {no picture of Susan here... maybe next time}

There are other friends, travel buddies, fb friends, schoolmates from st paul,..i'll write about you guys next time ...love, love lots, truly love....
