My Favorite Couple

They are my favorite couple in the world. My cousin Sheila and her hubby Ricky celebrated their 16th wedding anniversary last night with a party with family and friends. It was a blast especially seeing them dance the moves and sing the tunes of their times. Ambaduy! But I cannot help but join them in the merrymaking. Soon I was dancing and singing with them tiI the morning. I am so happy for the two of them for lasting this long.

My Ate Sheila is my pretty and fashionista cousin. She seemed to always wear the nicest clothes, shoes and accessories. Though she's quite small, she can carry herself big by being presentable (except when she's home wearing her old ruggy pambahays). Aside from that, I admire her spirit because she's almost almost bubbly especially when she's hanging out with her daughter Geli. She's a cool mom to Geli. She enjoys her time with Geli except that she can be a bit techie-challenged to which she admits whole-heartedly. No matter how busy she is at work, she's a wife and mom first. I like her when she's very supportive of everything that I do, that she even tried wall-climbing with me. My conversations with her are very meaningful because I learn from what she shares with me, be it about fashion, work or life itself. I know how much she loves Kuya Ricky by just holding his hand or just snuggling him. Ang cute! No need for words, it's shown in her actions.

My Kuya Ricky, her husband, is one of the coolest people I've ever met. We were introduced when I was 9 years old. I modelled for Ate Sheila's thesis. Back then, he had already shown his support to Ate Sheila. I was not that close to him until they realized I was no longer a kid and I could already understand their conversations and jokes. What bonded us together is our love for food. We'd talk about places (like restos, bars) where there is good food while eating. I like him most when he's drunk, okay tipsy, because he can do the weirdest things and not remember it when he's sober. And when he's drunk, okay tipsy, he would always converse in English. I like his happy disposition. I've never seen him angry. He always took things in stride. He was the only man I saw who braided his daughter's hair. He's the sweetest husband, be it in words and actions. He would always make time for Ate Sheila and Geli. I hope I find someone like my Kuya Ricky.

I was a bit sad for missing David Cook and David Archuleta's concert last night. But celebrating the night with my two favorite people made me realize that true love in this world can last as long as you both work on it.



Here's to many more years of togetherness Kuya Ricky and Ate Sheila! God bless you both!
