Chasing 13
Friday, March 16, 2007

And on to some related news... I'm not sure if I blogged this but my maternal Lola, Lola Lucy (God bless her soul) was very close to me and to our entire family. She was that one authoritative figure of music, discipline and knowledge. She was brilliant in Math, she loved and taught music and was a stickler for rules. She was a stickler for giving us money as well and making sure we enunciated words correctly. Anyway, her number has always been 13, Lucky no. 13 that is. For some years, this number has always turned up somewhere within our family.

1) Chime's birthday
2) First amount in pesos my brother got as commission in San Miguel
3) Our address... Corner 7th and 13th streets
4) Jasper's Car Registration... BOTH old and new
5) Jasper's address
6) Jidan's address
7) Our apartment number ... 6+4+1+ 2 = guess what
8) Our address... North 113th Plaza...
9) And others I can't remember anymore...

After I told my mom about this NIK news, my mom messaged me back that 7+2+4 (724Care, Nik's company) equals 13! And I told them the news on March 13! In the words of my mom, "Wala gyud ka baya-i sa Lola nimo Maude." Now THIS is freaky. My Lola was a force to be reckoned with. I regret not being able to introduce her to Joen because she would've fallen in love with him. I know, for sure, that Lola is still around. She's too stubborn to just disappear from our lives, hehe. I love you, Lola! Thanks for being our guardian!
