I was browsing through my ATM transaction slips when I remember that sometime ago, in the year 2004 to be exact, something happened to my ATM card while I was away.
My ex-husband and I were still together then. We went to Cebu for a vacation. We left my house and my car to the care of my ex-brother-in-law (my ex-husband's youngest brother). I did not realize then that my LBP ATM card fell from my bag while I was in the car right before we departed for Cebu.
Upon our return to Butuan, I was relieved when I found that my ATM card was at the passenger seat of my car. To my surprise, my account balance was decreased by P1000 (don't laugh. P1000 was still A LOT then). I then inquired from LBP-Butuan. That ever gracious staff (thanks to her) revealed that indeed there was a cash withdrawal made from my account at the LBP-Butuan ATM machine... WHILE I WAS IN CEBU.
So, who was the culprit? I then remember that weeks ago before that incident, I oftentimes requested my ex-brother-in-law to withdraw money from my account. Hence, he knew my ATM PIN. And nobody knew my ATM PIN, not even my ex-husband (as I don't trust him that much), except me and my ex-brother-in-law.
So, to repeat the question, who was the culprit?

Trooping to the RTC
Last January 4, I got a text from somebody congratulating me for the positive result of my annulment case. Since the sender's mobile number is unregistered (I changed cp, by the way), I immediately assumed it was from my lawyer. I texted back that I might drop by the Regional Trial Court (RTC) Branch I as I was still in Butuan then.
When I was about to ask for my copy of the decision, I was told that the said document was already in the possession of my lawyer. It turned out it that it was not my lawyer who texted me. Never mind the identity, lest I might be cited for contempt. (ha?)
Fast forward: I got the document.. not from RTC Branch I but from the one who texted me. Who gave it to me is no longer relevant. I was given specific instruction not to tell anybody.
For now, I am awaiting for the end of that endless 15-day period. When would that be? I'm wondering...

i love you, my goodbye
if my memory serves me right, it was a week before christmas day when i texted my lawyer about the status of my annulment case. i was surprised to know that it was still pending at the regional trial court, meaning, the decision was not yet forwarded to the solgen (solicitor general) for concurrence.
my lawyer then promised to have it sent to solgen. that means, i would have to wait for another fifteen (15) working days from the day it was supposedly received by the solgen.
i could not wait for that moment when i will be using my maiden name again. i am so excited! i love it! my goodbye! :)

If I Were Jinkee...
Last time I heard from the entertainment grapevine, Krista Ranillo is already back in town. If I were not mistaken, it was reported that she eluded everybody in the airport by taking the path exclusively provided only for Pres. Gloria Arroyo and Manny Pacquiao. Hmmm, that's something fishy...
How about Jinkee? I have a hunch that she is still trying to nurse a pierced heart. Well, with all those nasty reports circulating around, regardless of whether it's true or just a haux, who would not be depressed of feeling betrayed by the love of her life?
As if everybody cares about my opinion (but i'll say it anyway), i do not like Jinkee. She seemed to be aloof, cold, and snubbish unlike her funny mother-in-law, Mommy D. But this time, Jinkee gained my admiration. She is purportedly standing by her man. I agree with what Ms. Gina Alajar allegedly posted in her Facebook shoutout that Jinkee should not give up her husband as Krista is not worth it.
Now I remember, I have to call my lawyer. He told me a month ago that the result of my annulment case will be released anytime within November. I haven't heard from him since then. I wonder if he meant, November of... next year? :(

she is still so lucky..
last saturday, i met dr. joy (a pediatrician) while we were attending a seminar. i later found out that, aside from the fact that we have the same three-letter name ending in letter "Y", we also share the same fate (almost!).. in marriage.
just like me, she got married twice (civil and church).
just like me, she has no children (thank God! we both agree, indeed, it is a blessing in disguise!).
just like me, she is financially independent from her husband.
just like me, she bought properties from her own pocket.
and just like my ex-husband, hers did not contribute for the payment of their domestic expenses.
and just like my ex-husband, hers cheated on her..
oh another thing! dr. joy discovered that she is just the 2nd wife. how did her husband do that? her husband applied for a late registration at the NSO and used another name. he was able to secure a birth certificate needed for the proceesing of marriage license, blah, blah, blah.
me? i believe i am also just the 2nd wife. unfortunately, i don't have a proof. i just hold on to what my ex-husband said days after we got married. he married lorlaine (check my previous posts re her identity) solemnized by the mayor (or the judge?) at the municipality of santiago, agusan del norte. according to him, the marriage contract was intercepted at the local civil registrar just in time before it was supposedly submitted to the NSO.
the only difference i noticed between dr. joy's fate and mine are:
a) her husband is earning much (he is an OFW), while mine, a government employee, who does not depend on his net take home pay (the lowest allowed by the government) but relied on the "donations" from the suppliers and his assigned agencies.
b) since her husband is also earning, he was not considered a leech to her, while mine.. never mind!
c) she did not change her name when she got married. good for her. me? i changed it (sigh!). i suggested to my husband (then!) that i would just be using my maiden name. he got angry! hmmp! if only i knew that we would just come to this point.. (sigh again!)
for now, dr. joy is just waiting for the decision of the bigamy case she filed against her husband. the decision will come out anytime soon.
dr. joy will be free again.
