Francesca in France

Sunday 8am, hop out of bed, clear things, put to luggages and checked out of Western Eden Hotel. The front desk asked us for breakfast, I said no, we are in a hurry.
Excited ako, marami pa kami puntahan!
We took a tram way, 9am,
less people yet,as some must still be sleeping.

We are in the Tram stop when three french speaking people join us.

Good enough we discuss in English, so they cant spot us coming from France for holidays.
But the way they speak! Mama Mia, so foul that Michel is ashamed to be one of them! LOL
Must be Belgians, hehe

Anyway, the tram arrived, we hopped in, get down at Central Station, put our luggages to the lockers, pay 5.70 euros, for 24 hours, and voila, back to the tram,
Went to Rijksmuseum.
There, we got free entrance. The lady guard is annoyed, as I am taking pictures, everytime Canon Ixus flashed, she said three times to me, no flash please, hehehe.
Tigas ulo ng lola nyo.
Michel moved farther as if: hindi ko kasama yan!

Then we proceed to Vincent Van Gogh Museum.
He is famous in Holland, and in France.
He is a bit coucou (crazy,) so they say,because he shot himself, due to depression, and no money.
Well, 18th century is hard life, harder than what Afhganistan is experiencing at the moment.
The one that took profit of his painting is his brothers' widow, then the Dutch Govt took over of some( not all) his painting.

Going to Van Gogh Museum, it was raining! Jori told us to bring an umbrella. We did! But was locked at Central Station, hehe. So we run and hop for shelter, and inside the Van Gogh museum, we cant take pictures, so I cant post whats inside, only the posters that we have.
Hey, one painting original of Van Gogh is 1o5 million dollars!
Not worth for us to own one.
First, we dont even have a centimes of a million.
Second, even if we have, no way, it will cost us our life.Manakaw pa yan!
Third, to own one is to hire people to secure it.
Saan namin ilagay yon?
Sa closet?
Whats the use?
Kaya poster na lang, 15 euros lang hehe.
Busog mata na.
After that, gutom na kami, 1pm na pala!
7 pm ang flight namin back to France!
Takbo to tramway, hop, show our card, and drop at Damrak Station.
Hanap ng resto!
Wala magustuhan si pihikang Michel.
Daan sa Feta fast food.
Drop two euros coin, open the glass window, get our pick a food (parang apple pie in mcdonald, but inside is veges, meat or cheese.
I took only one.
Michel ate three! Panay dukot ng barya!lol
Gutom na pala, tinitiis lang.
Then go uli sa tramway station, hop in to one passing by,tanong ang driver sa mic: please show yuor ticket please...(kasi deretso upo kami sa loob, hehe) then go down to Central Station.
Hanap ng Canal cruise.
Nakita namin, Holland International Canal Cruise.
Pasok sa gate, pakita yong AMsterdam card namin, bigay ticket namin from cashier.
pasok sa boat, upo, eskayted (hindi excited ha) ako!
Ikot kami for one hour, ganda tanawin.
Michel bought some drinks in the machine.
Nakalimutan ko, may asawa pala akong gutom at uhaw!
Ha ha, super excited talaga eh!

After one hour canal cruise trip, drop by sa Damrak
Reklamo na si Michel, he wanted a decent meal.
Hanap, hanap.
Ayaw ng Shawarma!
Its not because of the food, but because of the : It is an Arab Cuisine.
He do not like to give his money to the Arabs, hahaha!
We found a fine dining Italian restoran.
Along the street near Amsterdam Diamond Center.
Sarap ng seafood spaghetti.
And the yummy bread and butter with herbs.
Nag beer si Michel.
Nag mineral water ako, naalala ko kakauhaw pala ang lakd ng lakad!

Then go back to Damrak Station, may Perya.
Sarap sumakay, kaya lang sabi ni Michel ow, ow, ow,
thats for children only.
Ngiih,
So ikot pa, sa likod pala non, Mme Tussauds!
Punta ka don, be like Jennifer Lopez attire, hehe.
But we didnt go in.
Wala na time, 4pm na.
We took the luggage from locker, look for the train to Schipol Airport.
Ask namin mga Train station Guards.
13b lane daw.
Aba, 3 mins na lang, dating na train!
At nawawal si Michel!
Yon pala, nasa Albert Hein shop,
hinahanap yong Pain de Boulogne ( holland brown bread)
Almusal daw niya sa bahay, Ngiih,sabay ng keso na nabili namin sa Cheese Farm.
Ang hitsura ko to go to airport,
Bitbit ang isang boquet ng Tulips.
Van Gogh box of poster.
Luggage ko.
Feeling tourist talaga! hehe
Pagadating sa airport, hanap going to Nice sa panel.
Yon, Gate 28!
Punta ng gate, sabi ng babae, don daw sa kabila.
Reklamo nga si Michel: Bakit doon, di ba sa iyo ang check in?
Sagot ng girl: No Sir, there at the end.
Punta kami sa end, taka yong mama.
Sagot ni Michel: the girl at the end do not want to entertain us.
The man took our Eticket mail copy, punch in the computer and issue us the ticket.
Voila, kaya pala, wala kami boarding pass, nasa pc pa.
Then go to B19 daw, para sa scan ng gamit.
Oy, wala kami biling Cannabis ha?
Lusot naman. Asar pa yong Police Imig sa akin, kasi pinadaloy ko pa tulip flowers ko sa running machine! He hehe
Si Michel naman, nag tutut ang scanner.
Biro ko, take of your gold belt!
Ngani nganin kong sabihin, show then your gun, kaya lang, baka ma hold kami dahils a biro, hehe.
Buti respectable naman ang suot namin, kaya okey kami.
Aba , ni hindi na nga hinanap ang passport namin!

Hintay one hour before take off.
Naisip ko, sana long stay pa kami sa AMS;
Ganda ng saya don, all are alive!
May life talaga!
Bukas, got to see Butler again and his silliness.
Miss ko na rin ang pusang si Chico at rabbit na si romeo.
Got home 11pm.
Wala na Bus regular.
We have to get a taxi to go home...

I thank talaga Cuddles and family sa accomodation nila sa amin to go places in Ams.
Super talino ng kids nila. Speakining Dutch!
Daig pa ang nanay at tatay.
Husband is a Physicist in the hospital in Amsterdam.
Wife (Cuddles) is a teacher in Cebu, Philippines.
No wonder, talino ng mga anak!

Miss ko na kayo Cuddles!
Hope you like it I post our pictures here.

Pick a treat food, where customers can drop one euro coin in the slot, the glass will open, and voila, there's your One piece cheese soufle/meator vegetables fried in bread crumbs.It was very delicious, good for us to try as we are on the go, to visit more areas, and we just drop 2 euros for 2 of those in the glass. Very convenient eh?

amsterdam, Holland, a very busy city, where people seems do not sleep at all. Two am they are still by crowds in the street, mcdonalds and kfc are still open until midnight but maybe until there are still peopl coming in. Lots of canals, endless, when we took the canal cruise. The red lights city is busy too. Cafe shop is for coffee, but coffeeshop is a bar/coffee shop where you can have cannabis.

one of the painting, Rijksmuseum 

The famous museum, RIJKSMUSEUM, a must to see when in Amsterdam.Here inside the museum, you can admire Rembrandts' famous "nightwalk",and many other Dutch Old Masters.Michel was fascinated by the ivory guns made in 16th centuries! Beautiful! Unbelievable that Holland is a very small country but the Dutch are very clever to create and maintain their treasures.

me and Michel, amsterdam 

In Zaanse Schans, where famous windmills (trademark of holland)are still on operation, producing cheese,(delicious gouda cheese), mustard.The old shop of Albert Hein , farm animals , antique farm tools can be found, also dutch type houses, We enjoy the day trip with the help of Cuddles and family.We enjoy their company sooo much, wish we have stayed longer. Im waiting for her approval to post our photos with them.

central station, amsterdam. Here the tram ways , train and buses always stops.

Okedoks?
Thanks, cuddles, see you !

In France (and Monaco) the lenten holidays starts (to some company) Friday afternoon.
To give way to those who will be out of the country for long.
Some already off to Paris.
Parisians are already here in South of France.
Germans are flooding Italy.
Italy border to France got heavy traffic.
Italians goes to France.
Usually not to spend, but to show off their cars, fur coats, jewelries etc etc.
They cant do it in their country, so they go to France, or in Monaco.
Especially in Monaco.
They sit in cafe de Paris, for 5 euros (350 pesos) coffee, chat long time , have their picture taken as souvenier, and voila, naka show off na.
During holidays, visit Monaco.

A lot of fancy cars parked in front of Casino.
By some show offs!
Tourists flock to have a picture taken with this fancy cars.

Meanwhile Monaco residents goes away from Monaco.
They are fed up of tourists.
Even Italians goes to Carrefour, took a big caddy (stroller for grocery) go round and round, with only a can of tomatoes in side the caddy.

My Madame complains: Why cant they stay in their own country?(She was annoyed, she cant get through between to chatting Italians...)

Some EU countries hates the french.

But still they go here for holidays.He hehe

Kasabihan na na ang mga asawang lalaki ay head of the family.
Oo, agree ako dyan.
But...
Ang wife naman is the neck of the family.
When she wants the head to turn left she can do so.
What say you?

Ay, ma post nga itong topic na ito sa asawa forum.
Lets see what the men says about this topic, hehehe.

Madame arrive thursday from italy.
Im expecting Butler to call me again in case catastrophe occurs.
Nothing.
Good, means we did the house clean and acceptable.

Today Butler asked me why Madame is in a good mood.
I said: "Its lent season today, so she is peaceable.
Very much Catholic, our Madame, you know."

At 12:30 I heard Madame , in the kitchen,telling off Butler.
So I get near to have a good hearing on whats going on...(tsismosa ako bah!)

Madame questioned Butler, why the salad thats been in the fridge for two days is still there, when she told Butler to throw it away, it is two days expired.

Butler in his dumb dumbness, answered: Because maybe Monsiuer will still wants to eat it.
(Ha ha ha, ang tawa ko, pigil lang!)

"WHAT!!!!!" Madame screamed!
"You want to poison him!!!!!"
"Throw it away!" Madame said.

Olaaahh, nakikinig lang ako, but I was really laughing.
Pakakainin ng expired si Sir, eh millonaire yon, kung magkasakit sa tyan yon for 1.52 euros lang worth of green salad!

Ang tawa ni Michel nang nagkwento akoh! LOL

"He said, come on, you dont do that to a millionaire, where is his brain that one?"

tonight, we attend a memorial service.
Meeting ito, for memory of the death of Jesus Christ.
Then after one hour holy mass(reunion) we went to a resto in Nice Zone Pietone.
Umuulan!
11pm na natapos ang meals.
Ganon sa resto, kadami courses kung kakain.

I thank pala my friend MENG in Japan.
She had been my suporter in the net, since 2000 pa.
We met sa Pinoy Central website, then nag yahoo, then nag asawa forum, until now she still supports me in my blog.
When I was still in Pinas, she sent me a dress, a bag, a wallet, from Japan.
I brought them with me in France.
Then when here in France, she sent me a fur coat!
The one I wear when in Barcelona.

I dont keep many friends.
They usually come and go.
But I treasure one.
Meng.
This is for you, Carmen.
Hope you find happiness in life.
Know what makes you happy and do it.
You deserve to have the best in life too.

Good night,muah!

I got emails from some newbies in the Asawa forum asking me about annulment.
One ask how is the judge that handled my case as she got the same Judge that granted my annulment.
He he.

She is a correct judge.
Try to bribe her, she will put you to jail.LOL

My lawyer , her frist time to encounter a judge that is sooo organized in her court.
Got time to handle 15 cases in 4 hours from 8am to 12 noon.
Kaya nyo yon pag kayo Judge?
Then her decision, is within Three months after the last hearing.
According yan sa time allowed to them by the Supreme court to decide.
All files are well arranged.

Mine was exactly 2months and 28 days, when she decides the annulment in my favor.
Of course, who else? he he he

How is it in the court during hearings?

All case to be heared will be called.
Lawyers of both parties must acknowledge "ready" to the court clerk.
Then judge start with the prayer, then she bangs her gravel: court now in session.
Tatawagin ang first case: Mrs .... VS Mr ..., case number, Nullity of Marriage Case.
Then judge will ask, if both counsel present,
the petitioner,
the respondent.
Pag hindi ready ang lawyer, then nag sabi before na ready siya to show evidence, nagagalit ang judge.Kasi wasting her time.
Dapat umuwi na ang lawyer kanina pa, hindi naman pala ready! lol

Then kung wala ang respondent, hahanapin ng Judge ang acknowledgement summons by registered mail if the respondent was notified, and the respondent signed the summons.
If no signature of the respondent, hindi pwede mag proceed ang case.
Papadalhan uli ng summons, pagagalitan ang counsel for respondent, bakit hindi inaasikaso ang respondent, lalaban pala sa kaso, hindi pumirma sa summons, kung alam niya na may case against him or not.
Kung may pirma, proceed ang case, basta may pirma si respondent na alam niya may case sa kanya, ayaw niya lang umatend.


Ang lahat ng case to be heard for the day, nakapaskel sa labas ng pinto ng court.
Doon malalaman kung sino ang mag aaway sa court for the day.LOL
Yong name namin ni Ex naka paskel during hearing dates!

May comedy, may cry cry, may nakakasuyang mga testimonya.
Yong case ko, naaaliw ang judge.
Para raw tele nobela.
Eh ang lola nyo, okey sa komedya, at tele nobela kung mag kwento sa judge ng nangyari sa first marriage ko.

But!
hindi ako in public nag testify ha?
Sosyal ako.
Sa Chamber room ni Judge ako nag labas ng sama ng loob ko.
Requested by my lawyer.
After all, my case is a family dispute, pwede i discreet hearing na lang.
Wala si Ex, kaya okey lang kay Judge.

Mga tanong ng judge to huli me of my intention to file nullity of my marriage:

May balak ka ba mag asawa, kaya ka nag file ng annulment?
No, your honor.
In love ka ba?
I wish, your honor.
May nanliligaw sa iyo?
Yes your honor.
Ilan ?
Three your honor.
Pinoy or foreigners?
Foriegners, your honor.

Judge to anybody in the room:
Why foriegners like Filipinas?

Me: Because they like our color and values, I think your honor...

Judge: Tawagin si Fiscal, if he wants to cross examine the petitioner.
Sagot ni court clerk, no raw , your honor.
(Si fiscal, nag yoyosi sa labas! lol)

So the judge, declared my hearing finish, set a date for my lawyer to submit all exhibits, and within 3 months she will decide.
Uwi na kami.
Nabunutan ako ng tinik.
Natapos din ang Q and A namin ni lawyer in front of the judge.
HIntay na lang decision.

Yan ang hassles ng annulment.
Madali, mag pasakal, eheste pakasal.
Mahirap kumalas!
Laki laki pa gastos!
Time and money ha!
I paid total costs 130thousand pesos, 4 gives in one year time.
I won because of my grounds after a year process.
I was lucky.

May secret to keep me young?

Butler! arhhggh!
No one else. Hu hu hu

Okey, see you in your own blog, kelan ba?
Eskayted na ako basahin bah!

My Boss is throwing nice books today.
It is about elegant wristwatches.
Books issued from Hotel Noga Hilton, Geneva, Switzerland, the land of beautiful watches.
I told you, the time we visit there, New Years day, everything were close, the only one that works, is the clock!
Trademark ng Geneva is good watches.

The book talks about Antique watches, beautiful, really nice.
Even the meticulous Michel who loves antique collections whistles!

Rolex watches, cost 13,000 euros (910,000 pesos)

There's Patek Phillipe gentlemans wristwatch , Geneva, Switzerland,
100,000-160,000 euros(7million-11 million pesos lang, hehe)

features:
three-body, solid, polished, and brushed, inclined bezel, triangular lugs, Matte silver, with applied yellow gold baton, and pyramidial indexes, outer tritium dots, 37 jewels, Geneva stamped Quality, Gyromax balanced to heat, cold,isochronism, and five positions, shock absorber,self compensating free-sprung Breguet balance spring,18K,yellow gold rotor.
Dial, case and movement signed.

Michel is dying to have one, pero walang ganong pera! LOL

I saw the book with the pictures of this antique gentlemans wristwatches, thrown, and Butler is putting it in the trash.
I said, I take it at home, for display in my center table.
Butler doesnt know what is good material.
Olaaahh!

Butler said, "I am not interested with those things.
I read only L06! "

Ngiih!

(LO6 is a newspaper, that is freewhich veryone got it from mailbox, a rubbish paper.)


Cheapu, Butler.

Today I got my medical check up .
Again!
I had my medical check up in France last December, for my residence card that allows me to work in France.
Then I decided to work in Monaco.
Another medical check up.
I got the permit to work in France, which Monaco accepted as valid, but!
I need to do the following steps.
Go to employment service, show the contract of work from employer.

Monaco will give a dossier de embauchage(hiring document) to be filled up my employer.
Bring back to emploi service the paper signed by employer.
Wait for appointment with the medical doctor.
After two weeks, appointment scheduled.
Check up, same in France> eye, chest, weight, height, medical history of parents, urine analysis. After that, if health is okey, they gave you a paper, stating your number, name, employer, and the result of exams:

APTE (french word,meaning I am able to work)

I gave the paper to my employer, so that the bank of Monaco govt will start collecting from my employer of my declaration money.

What a way to have this process for a Permit to Work.

Anyway, they have to approved me to work, they saw my Boss name, he is a well known person in Monaco and have been declaring employees for so long. Cant deny a good payer , him (for declaring employees)

They have his file and member number.

Just for info, to those who wants to work in a tiny country like Monaco.

Monaco is only 2kilometers wide (area).

But have 15,000 + employees working daily!

Pang 15521 ako, ayon sa permit to work number ko!

There are times, we got pressures in life.
Mga nang aasar sa atin.
Example ko si Butler.
Away kami today.
Slight lang naman, kasi, mahirap na, hindi ko bahay, kina Sir kami.

Ayoko sa lahat yong tinuturuan ako.
Kung ang turo eh, alam ko naman na.
From Butler pa?
Di bale na.

Sinabihan ako, mag silver cleaning daw ako!
Sabi ko, ikaw mag iron ng mga plantsahin ko?
Sagot niya: Yong dating Porutguese dito, nagagawa!
Me: AH! Saan na siya ngayon?
Nag walk out!
Narealise niya she is overworked here!
And I dont want to over work myself!
Huh! (Sigaw ko ky Butler)
(After all huh, I dontneed to kill myself, for that blooming silvers! Mas mahaba oras niya, siya gumawa non!)

Tuloy ko plantsa ko.
Nag sorry si butler.
Sinagot ko: Dont be sorry, just be careful.
O, di ba taray?

Katwiran ko, hindi naman ako natutulog don, may mga gawain akong naka priority, tapos utusan ako! No, no, no, no!

At ayoko yong i compare ako sa Porutguese na yon?
Anong tingin niya sa akin, wala ako brain?
Insulto yon ha.
Sabihin niya, introduce niya raw ako sa Portuguese para malaman ko mga tips sa loob ng bahay?
Sagot ko nga: NO, Got no time to see her and her tips.
I can do without.
Who is Butler to tell me on what to do about my work?
Ha?
Ganyan ba sa office nyo? Merong Bossy Boots?

Sa buhay naman, as a neighbor , do you know where you stand?


Pag may maingay sa hallway namin, nag kukwentuhan, iritable si Michel.
Lalabas siya ng pinto, silip, say Good evening.
Then hindi siya aalis, titingin lang ng next move ng kapitbahay namin na maingay.
Then they get it!
Binabantayan sila ni Michel kung aalis or not.
Aba hindi!
Tuloy ang kwento!
So, politely, sasabihin ni Michel, maybe, one of you can invite the other to go inside the house and have tea, its better isnt it?
Asar na umalis ang nag uusap.

Pasok si Michel ng bahay.
Tawa ako ng tawa.
Michel: If I just let them off, they chat and chat there long hours , why cant they do it inside their own house?
Oo nga naman.

Minsan naman , mga kabataan(boys and girls).
Nag tatawanan.
Same procedure, labas si Michel (nasa first floor lang kami kasi, kaya yong mga kids, tambay sa loob ng hallway)
Tingin, good evening, sagot sila good evening.
Hindi aalis si Michel sa pinto, nakikinig sa kanila.
Hindi sila maka kwentuhan ng tuloy tuloy, nahihiya.
Umalis.

Minsan, two men, hintay ng lift.
Labas na naman ang "Police".
Same procedure, good evening.
Sagot ng good evening...
Tahimik...
The two men, told Michel, the lift took long.
Michel said: Because you didnt press the floor number!
Oh, sorry, kaya pala raw matagal.

Balik na naman ang" pulis" sa loob.
Tawa ko na naman.
Katwiran ni Michel:
I just want to let them know, politely, na maingay sila, without any big fuss on the matter.

One time, mga kabataan, nag lalaro ng football.
Labas si Michel.
Sigaw :Ow, Ow, Ow, Sa Park mag laro, baka makabasag.
Takbuhan sa takot ang mga bata.

Kelangan lang daw sabi ni Michel: habit.
To let know the neighbors that a resident do not like noise when it is evening na.

Kaya nyo yan?

Ka chat ko anak ko. Siya ang nag aasikaso ng internet shop.
Eh nag pabili siya ng xerox machine.
Charge 1.00 peso per copy.
Malapit kami sa school, kaya ok ang business.
Eto na ang tsika.
Nagagalit ang ka competensiya.
Kasi singil niya 1.25 per page.
So sa amin lumalapit.
Of course.
Eh business ito noh!
Then sunod na order ni Daughter ko, 4 pc additionals.
In demand sa school ang term papers kung graduation na.
Bumili 4 na PC.
Haba nguso ng ka competensiya.
Deadma ni Daughter ko.
Nag pabili ng isang sakong bigas, sinakay sa tricycle,
Haba na naman nguso ng kalaban.
Paki ng anak ko.
Basta hindi niya inutang itong bigas.
Namana sa akin, she doesnt bother.

Then, nag apply kami ng PLDT line.
Approved!
Kasi nga, papers ko from France pa ang hinigi.
For sure na we can afford to pay.
Pati business permits etc etc kinuha ang kopya!
Pati marriage contract namin ni Michel!
Ganon na ba kahigpit ngayon sa Pinas?

Dati kasi PT&T telephone connection kami.
Wala sila DSL.
Hindi pwede hindi DSL kung sa gaming.
Uso ang larong RAGNAROK sa Pinas;

So dumating ang survey men ng PLDT.
Haba na naman nguso ng kalaban sa negosyo.
Eh, for ten years, na nag aaply sila ng PLDT,
Dis approved sila.
Ako, in a week, ito na , ready to install.

Ang tsismis, dinaan ko raw sa pera ko.
Eh wala pa nga ako binabayaran?
Bat ako mag babayad, hindi pa nga na install ang telephone at DSL?

Anyway, deadma ang mga inggitera.
If I ask their permission everytime I make a move to improve my life and my children,
Saan ako pupulutin nyan?

Hayaan mo, Miss Taga Dubai, I will post more nakakatuwa.
Minsan pagod/Lasing ako sa trabaho as in worn out talaga.
But I try to make up sa blog ko, updating it.
Minsan while at work, sige ang punas dito at doon, naiisip ko ang mga kikays ko, sinusulat ko sa papel, para pag dating sa bahay, I can post it in my blog.

Keep reading girls, I'm happy I make your days happy too.

Muah!

May siamese cat si Madame.
Super tamad!
Datnan alisan ko tulog!
Kaya inaasar ko minsan.
Mag ba vacuum ako sa tabi niya.
Ayaw kumibo, uunat lang ng mga paa(paws) niya , balik tulog na naman!

Sigawan ko nga: "Chico, tamad mo, mag banat ka naman ng buto!
ALLEZ!"

Ayaw pa rin.

Hinayaan ko na.

Sarap maging pusa minsan...

(Once in a while, sometimes its nice to be a cat!)

Tulog lagi!

Ang kinakain ni Chico ay croquet!(parang cereals ba.)
One time may lunch ako, binigyan ko siya ng sardines na ulam ko.
Ang Chico, inamoy lang, then iniwanan!
Sa Pinas ang pusa namin, pag nakaulam ng isda, lalo na sardinas,
Pagkatapos kain, pinapahid sa buong katawan ang lansa ng isda.
Pa inggit ba sa ibang pusa!
Parang jewelry sa pusa ang isda, lalo na sardinas!
Pero itong si Chico, ay naku, hindi pusa ito.

Daga ata ito!

Nabasa ko sa blog ni MissT na buwan pala ng tanim ng mga pananim sa Holland.
So amoy popoh ang hangin, kasi lagay ng fertilizers ang maga farmers, eh dung ng animals ang fertilizers doon ayon sa blog ni MissT
.
Then darating kami sa March 26, bale yon ang "reception committee" sa amin.
Amoy ebs ang hangin!

Then naka Madame attire akoh! Waahhh!
Matatalo ang best perfume ng Paris!

What a glorious day for our holiday!

Akala ni Butler matakot niya ako!
Pag dating ko sa work, pakita ko nga sa kanya, beso beso ko si Madame!
Iba na ang may charms, and using it.
Of course, sa Madame, may sermon pa rin ako, normal.
Pero hindi talak!
Nakikuusap ang tono.

After two hours ko na work, cherie na ang tawag ni Madame.
Punta raw siya sa eglise (church) babalik siya agad.
Then nang bumalik, nag bihis, pasara raw ng zipper nag damit niya.
O di ba vibes kami.
Punta raw siya Vintimille, Italy, (20 mins ang layo from Monaco)
Au revoir, au demain na raw!
Bye, see you tom.

O saan yong boldjak daw ako?
Tanong ko kay Butler.
Sagot niya: Pero galit kahapon yon sa iyo!
Sagot ko: Bakit ngayon hindi!

Then sabi ni Butler: Kung gusto mo, pakilala kita sa dating Portuguese dito, para alam mo ang tips sa work dito!
Umasa boses ko: Lokong ito, akala niya hindi ako quality worker!
Sigaw ko: What for?
You are the one complaining my work, not them, why I bother to get tips from her!
Bano talaga, insultuhin pa ako!
At the end sabi ko kay Butler:

If they dont like my work, they have had said to terminate me long time ago.
But no. I am still here, counting my euros!

But if they want to, just they say so ha.
They are not the only rich in Monaco.

Taray ng lola nyo.hi hi hi

I ve been posting a lot of topics in my blogs, it didnt go to publish because everytime, it says, server cannot found !

Dami ko pa naman topic na itsika!
Kaya, mga girls/gals, kung wala kayo mabasa, sorry ha,
Either sira ang pc ko, or "lashing" na naman lola nyo.
Goodnight!
Muah!

Declaration in Monaco

If working in a society (business firm), kelangan declare ka, kasi legal papers hawak mo.
So kelangan may permit de travail ka issued by Monaco.
Iba naman yong permit de travail ng France.
Kasi ibang bansa na ang Monaco sa France.
So iba ang labor, iba ang sss office, iba ang health office.

Yong afternoon employer ko, since hired niya ako Oct 2004, tanong ng tanong bakit wala pa ako permit to work, eh I dedeclare nga niya ako.
So sagot ko , ewan ko, saan ba kinukuha yon?
Last month tanong k o kay butler, na post ko nga rito.

Monday, sabi ni Sir, eto na ang embauchage ko.
Yon ay hiring letter na nilagay niya sweldo ko, date of hiring and name and address of employer and employee.
Then binigay ko sa Emploi Service ng Monaco.
Hindi pwede sa emploi service ng France, kasi sa Monaco ang boss ko nakatira, where I work.
Kaya Monaco employment service ko lang pwede ibigay ang hiring letter ni Sir.

After a week, dumating kay Sir ang medical appointment ko.
March 23, Wed, check up sa doctor.
Reklamo ako!
Aba last December lang ako na Xray , ito na naman uli?
Sabi ni Sir, obligatory raw ng Monaco na ma check up ako para sa files ko for my permit de travail.
Aba, gusto ba nila masunog baga ko?
Besides, hindi naman ako nag sisigarilyo.
Grabeh naman yan!

Kaya lang nasa sulat ng medical doctor, kung I refuse ko ang appointment, never na ako bigyan ng chance, meaning wala ako permit to work sa Monaco.
Ganyan ka higpit!
Kasi baka raw my reason to refuse check up, eh may aids ako!
Ngiiihhh!

So, March 23, 11 am, punta na lang ako sa doctor.
Para matapos na y an.
Then yong panghapon ko, madeclare na rin ako.
Ang declaration ng Monaco (same as in France)ang employer obligado mag bigay ng 46% ng salary mo sa govt para sa benefits mo.
46% monthly!
Ang laki.
Ganito yan, (oy, taga France, correct niyo na lang ha, kung tama or mali hehe)

Example salary gross: 1000 euros/per month

Bawasan ng 21% so 210 euros yon, punta yon sa Benfits mo, (Govt Caisse Social )
So maiiwan na lang eh, 790 euros. Yan ang take home mo.
Yong employer , dahil declared ako sa govt, mag babayad ng 460 euros/month deposit sa pondo ko sa Govt.
Sariling pera ni Boss yon.
So monthly ang ipon sa iyo sa Govt, is 210(from your salary) +460 (from boss' pocket) = 670 euros per month.

Kaya kelangan may pera ang Boss mo to declare kundi, ano ibabayad niya sa govt for you.LOL

Yong 460 euros, kinukuha direct sa bank ng Boss.
Kelangan may bank siya sa Monaco.
Doon sila naningil, from the Boss bank account.
Through R.I.B. yon,( releve d' indentity banquaire)
Kaya wala ligtas! LOL
Kung tanggal sa work, stop na si Boss sa bayad ng 46%.
The employee will inform the caisse social.
So Caisse Social stops collecting.
Si Employee, wala work, punta sa caisse social, para hingi ng Chomage pay.
Ito yong salary ni employee until na makahanap uli ng work.
Pero hindi ito bigay, bawas ito sa retirement benefits mo.
Minsan ang bigay chomage pay, ang liit.
50% lang daw? ng salary mo ang ibibigay.
Magtrabaho ka na lang.

Sa boat, malaki ang sweldo pala ! ,nasa 3000 euros pa nga per month yong ibang stewards/dess kasi non declare sila. Eh byahe ng byahe naman ang barko kasi, kaya wala Monaco Residence.
Unless, may apartment sa Monaco, then pwede mag declare.
Si Butler kaya umalis hindi raw siya ma declare ng Ramses!

Pero di ako naniniwala roon!

Siguro liit ng bayad! Peanuts!

Today, afternoon employer asked me if I find her fur scarf.
I said, its in the closet of scarves isnt it?
None, she said, she already looked!

So I looked, she is right, nothing!
I look all over the house, nothing.

My mind is thinking, she did three dinners late evenings, whe if some of her guests took it.
Then ako ang pagbintangan!
Ay, hindi ko gawain yan ha!
But of course, sino pa ba?
Ako lang ang less category sa bahay niya.

So hanap ako ng hanap!
Akyat sa hagdanang de fold, to look all top closets.
Nakita ko!
Haaay!

Natakpan pala ng isang big scarf niya nag plantsahin ko at ialagay sa closet!

No wonder, hindi makita.

Happy ako kasi ng hinanap niya, same day ko nakita.
Kung next day ko pa nakita, baka sabihin /isipin non,
inuwi ko at binalik din.

Bah, hilig ko rin ang furs, but, hindi galing sa nakaw ha!

Our employers were off to Italy since Monday.

And stupid Butler call the boss yesterday, if they come Wednesday.

He is soooo stupid to call them.
I didnt know, bec if I knew he called the Boss, I walk out!
I dont like him calling the Boss, when will they arrive!!!
Estupido talaga!

I find the call: Unethical, create dishonesty, create suspicions, and that includes me, because I work with him, this Butler stupid!

Moi! Ako, sali sa eng eng niya!
Grrr.


At 6pm Butler called me.
He was surprised!
Madame and Sir arrived.
Surprise, no call, just popped in the house!
Butler called because Madame complains of the house, not good, etc etc.
I told Butler, you are lying to me.
He said no.
I insist you are lying to me, Madame complained of the house.
I know I clean the house according to their standard, and if I saw you did the mess, humanda ka sa akin!
Natakot.
Hindi naman daw galit si Madame.
Ah mabuti kung ganon.
Kaya raw siya (Butler) tumawag to let me know.
Para pag dating ko bukas, no surprise.

I told him, I am confident na wala palpak ag work ko, ewan ko sa work mo.
Bukas, malalaman natin ang kasunod na kabanata!
Bakit biglang umuwi mula holiday sina Madame?
Nag sususpetsa?
Bakit tinaon na wala ako? Saka sila dumating?
Hmmmnnn...
I smell a rat!

kagabi, nananaginip ako.
Una, may nag pa flashlight sa bintana namin.
Natutulog kami ni Michel and yong mama na nag flash ng lights niya, tumama sa mata ko, at nagalit ako.
Sigaw ako ng: AHHHHHH! sabay hawi kay Michel.

Poor michel na alimpungatan!
Yakap ako, at baka, hatawin ko siya uli.
Pero okey na ako.
Gising na.
At hiyang hiya, may tama si Michel.

So back to tulog...

At 5 am, sigaw ako uli: ARRRGGGHHHH!

Kasi, yong isang Pinay, kinuha yong Rayban ni Michel, binili sa SM, eh 5,000 pesos yon.
Kitang kita ko ng kinuha niya sa mukha ni Michel at sinundan ko siya, binebenta sa isang seaman sa Monaco, ng 700 pesos!
Takbo ako sa kay Pinay, sabay agaw ng Rayban!

Arrghhhh, kay Michel yan!

Yon ang tunog sigaw ko.

Gulat na naman si Michel.Nahataw ko na naman, sabunot talaga! lol

Tumayo na.
Kumuha na ng Tubig.
Over na raw ako bah!
Inumin ha, hindi pag buhos sa akin, hehe.

Then nag alarm ng 5am.
Sabi ni Michel, makapasok na nga sa work,
Ayoko na ng pangatlong sigaw ,baka bali na dib dib ko!
Punta siya sa kusina, gawa ng kape.
Ako naman, nag tataka, bakit dalawa pa ang sigaw ko?
Pagod siguro ako.

Kwento ko kay Pinay friend.
Ang Bru, kumuha ng ballpen.
Itaya raw sa lotto ang numero!

all the french made bread for coffee break /breakfast. 

dinner picture in Italy. Kasama si Pinay, mabait siya, at kalog. Ayaw niya sana sumama, kasi sabi ni Michel dala siya ng 300euros! Magsardinas na lang daw siya kesa 300 euros. Pero nalashing talaga lola nyo that night. We choose outside table, but covered by thick plastic on the terrase, kasi it is still winter.Anyone coming to France, and contact me, We will go there to have a meal. Just bring yuor 300 euros, hehe. Biro lang, but it was all fun to have a meal in Italy,the chef is very proud of their cuisine. Our dessert is the best they offer that night, Tiramiso with Dissarono wine.You are all invited, when here, just IM me, basta Sunday, we treat you like a tourist. 

our salon, in better shot, hehe 

full view of our apartment, first floor. Picture taken with school kids off to school. Masaya sa lugar namin, maraming kids lagi.Asar si Michel if they kick a ball, hinahabol sila ni Michel.Hihihi 

perfumes ko, kung ang iba collection jewelries, ako pabango, hehe, kasali na rin dyan ang parfums ni michel. Pic taken sa bathroom closet. Yong iba , wala na laman. So far, gamit ko ay Lalique, ubos na nga eh!  

Sweet siya.
Pag umalis na siya to go back to Italy, ang daming bilin sa akin.
Lambing na niya yang, bitbitin ko ang handbag niya until going out to jump to her private car.
Ang driver naka suit with tie.
Kasi very rspectable dapat, Madame ang pasahero.
Then lagay ni Butler ang mga shopping bags niya at the back.
Ako naman nasa door side, i oopen ko ang door to let her in.
When she is in, saka ko ayusin ang mga gamit niya near her.
Hand bag, scarf, personal makeup, etc etc.
Kaya naman niya gawin yon, kaya lang, para nga akong PA eh.
Personal assistant baga!

Kulang na lang red carpet!
Kontodo ngiti ako, kasi paalis na siya, bye bye sweetly dapat.

Then sasabihin ni Madame: Fait bien la maison, ha?

Ngiih, of all na gustong sasabihin, yon pa.

"Linisin mabuti ang bahay ha?"
Para bang hindi malinis kung datnan niya.

Feeling important talaga.
Bagay she deserves it.
She is born rich!
Not just a somebody rich.
But really rich.

Kaya gusto ko matuto mag Italian eh!
Oy investment din yon ba!
Palagay nyo?
Sino na may alam mag Italian, share naman o!

Oo, meron na namang tennis match sa Tennis Club de Monaco.
Nabasa ko sa panel board to day.
15 euros/entrance/person

From 10 am, April 5- 17,2005

Yong dati kong emlpoyer, libre entrance sila, ring side pa.
Nasa Monaco news paper pa nga pictures nila, na nag cheer sa player nila.

Kasi depositor sila ng Hongkong Shanghai Bank, kaya libre entrance fee, all days of the match.

Bangko ko, wala?
Wala!
Wala kasi sila kita sa akin, hik hik hik.
Alam niyo na kung bakit.

MONACO – A photographer has been jailed for four months and fined 3-thousand euros for taking unauthorised photographs of Princess Caroline. In 1996, Luc Goursolas took snaps of the Princess as she drove along the A-8 motorway. At the time the royal was suffering from a medical condition that had resulted in her losing her hair.

Ask ko si Michel bakit ikulong, after all she is a public figure?

Michel: Because he should not take advantage of the Princess on her own down situation when having hair loss. The photograper make money on top of it, on the expense of the Princess. He do not respect the privacy of the person,when she was down, but instead sell her pictures in the tabloids and magazines, he do not show respect, he should be penalized and put to jail.

Ah.

Evenif she is not a Princess, the law in France, if one violates the privacy of the person, he, she can be sued and put to jail.
No one should mock a person , make money out of her, and put to shame.

Ay, ganon pala yon?

last post for today: Michel, putting back the barrier in the parking lot. Naiinis na sa mga aliens na nag oocupy ng parking lot namin.I took this picture from our window, and you can see the trees, it is winter time so trees has no leaves, when springtime comes, during /in May, they will have leaves again to give shades on the cars being parked.
Ay oo, ganyan ang seasons dito. Pati ang mga puno, walang dahon. Kasi laglagan sila, kaya nga may Autumn (Fall) Season.

Now after posting this, I go to wash my hair. Kasi bukas lunes na naman... waah, go to work again, hu hu hu. Vacuum Cleaner, here I am again.
Goodbye good old days with the wine and italy dinner and rides to go along the beach, grrr,One has back to reality tom.

And to pasaway na Butler.

And the Madame, lola francesca , in the walkway along the beach.As the olives feast didnt go today, kasi mali pala petsa tingin ko, hehe, sensya na, lola na talaga kasi, kaya gala na lang kami ni Michel along the beach. The scenery is beautiful, except sa lola nyong th (trying hard) taas kilay ko!
Summer (June to Sept) the beach will be full up. With tourists having sunbathing and enjoy the swim.

Trampoline for kids: this is in St Laurent de Var, beach area, to teach kids to jump and fall with enjoyment. Cost 5 euros per hour, while mommies are in the bar in front having coffee and crepes.

restaurant asiatic, class ang dating along St Laurent de Var, Cagnes sur mer.
We have been there years ago, hehe, good food, they serve. Thai, chinese, Indian, masarap yong grilled Dorade fish nila.
This evening we went to our restaurant favorite in Nice. Kasi katsokaran namin ang may aring Chinese. Suki na kami don for 5 years! Along Promenade des Anglais, called Pailin Chinese Resaurant. Eto ang joke ni Michel to the owner:
Michel: I would like to have the young coconut juice but it is more expensive than the french wine, yuor wife must have it priced higher, to buy her fur coat, isnt it?
Owner: Ha ha ha, how did you know?
Michel: I got the wife that does the same, her (pointing me)
Owner: Ha ha ha, mind you, I went to a restaurant Hippocamp inside the Vieux Nice , a piece of meat cost me her fur coat price!
Michel: You must have order the whole animal, thats why?

They have a good laugh the owner didnt charge the drinks.

I told him, I tell your wife when sees her.

In English Olives Feasts: Today punta kami sa Cagnes S/ Mer, to see the Olives Feast. Ngiihh, hindi pala yon today. It is on Saturday, March 19(in the picture in a panel, it says Samedi Mars 19).Ganyan ang advert dito, in a glass panel board, class ang dating, hindi gaya sa Italy in some of their areas, nakadikit sa walls, luray luray na after few days bec of rain and shine. But here in France naka glass panel on bus and train stops .

Tawa ng tawa si Michel, over excited ako, next week pa pala yong Féte na yon!

So ikot na lang kami sa Port Area ng St Laurent de Var,(kung basahin( seng lorang do vah).We watched the beautiful yatchs on station ports and look around to the Zone Pietone (walkways) and looked on some classic retaurants there. Fantastic, even the asiatic resto, hindi papatalo.
Kumikita ang town area dahil sa mga yate na naka moor sa port areas. Thousands of it, mama mia. Kamahal I think mag maintain ng yate! Para kang may other family nyan, sagot i ni Michel.

Not a good thing to do.
Lots of embeciles around these days.
I was warned too to take careful.

But one silly joke landed to me at 12 noon.
He said I have to be careful, my blog will be next.
Ha ha, ignorance!
But I was annoyed.
It is not a joke.
A silly one I might say.
On a Sunday.

I said politely: Look, my blog is not that famous like asawa.My blog do not annoys, but entertains.
There are lots of website, famous as asawa website that boils the hacker.
I dont boil anybody.

And if my blog is hacked, I dont worry at all.
I can create a new one.
Always.
Unlimited.
My life do not( at all) rounds in a blog.
Buti na lang.

Di ba, mga girls?

Our terrase, in our apartment. Taken today. You could see how sunny bright it is today in Nice. People are all happy, good bye winter, springtime is coming in a week! We live in first floor. Just near the entrance of the building.We got four rooms, kitchen, salon and two bedrooms.I took this picture covers the salon and bedroom, the kitchen window at the right side of the terrace and another bedroom near the window next to flower pot .

Mimosa tree in one of the houses in Nice, near our apartment. Today is a very sunny day and mimosa trees are in full bloom. Only on sunny areas they lives full bloom. In the mountain of Mandelieu, near Cannes, 20 minutes from Nice, you can see them all over in vast areas growing with flowers. There is a feast of mimosas last month in the area. Europeans are putty about this flowers and they believe to bring good luck to those who recieve a boquet of it.The house is anohter burgis type, a Niçoise type of house.

Tinawagan ko si Pinay friend kung gusto niya sumama.
Saan daw?
Sabi ko sa Mneton lang, border ng Italy.
OO raw, at wala siya magawa, it is Saturday evening.
Michel told me: Tell her to bring 300 euros!

Shh, I told Michel.

But Michel was a joker, when Pinay Friend, in her best gear with coat and scarf,get in the car, he asked her:did you bring 300 euros? we invited you but it is you to pay, we dont have money...

Pinay friend, dropped her jaw, LOL

Then told us: Oh no, I go down and eat my can of sardines na lang at home, nakaprepare na yon.

We are laughing, bec she didnt get the joke.

Anyway, we reach Menton, I discuss with Michel in French, that we go ahead to Italy in DolceAqua as there is a nice resto their I had dinner with my long lost friend Diane a french.

Michel said ok, while Pinay didnt know.

She never went to Italy.
Takot siya, kasi wala pa siya papel, baka makontrol.
Then nong nasa Vintimille na kami, italy na, taka si Pinay!
Bakit daw ang mga shops, italian ang signs.
Sabi ko kasu nasa Italy na tayo!
Haaa???
Haba na naman ang mukha!
Then we tell her, we are going to have dinner in Italy.

Her cellphone rang;
Bf is looking for her.
She said, we are in DolceAqua, Italy.
What? Who are you with, may immigrations diyan!
Okey naman daw siya, wala naman control.
Sabi ni Michel tell him: There are lots of terrorist, but no Police.

Tawa na naman kami.

Then kain kami pizza for a start.
Masarap kasi thin crust.
Yong last piece, nag aalangan kami kunin sa plate.
Sabi ko kay Pinay, take it.
Sabi niya, masarap ano? But no I cant.
Goodie, I took it, share with Michel and Michel said, good you say no , I dont!
Tawanan na naman!

Meanwhile si BF of Pinay called, when is the dinner finished.
Pinay said after two hours.
I call again, bf said.
Hindi mapalagay ang bombom, kasi takot, baka ma control si Pinay;
Come one, wala na control ang borders ngayon.
Ako nga noon, mag isa, punta Italy, wala rin papel, for five years ha.
Bili fake Louis Vuitton, Gucci, bags sa market every friday.

We went home ten pm, and Pinay text me, On Sunday ha, lunch tayo again in Italy.
Ang Bru, nag enjoy!
