Summer is again over!
The rainy season is about to start. A part of me is liking the end of the hot summer nights and the start of rainy days and stormy nights which would want you to curl in bed, under the covers and wish for Signal No. 3 so that you're excused from going to the office. But a part of me will definitely miss the summer season and its sunny skies which makes you want to get into a bikini and hit the beach and just drink cold shakes on the sand.
This week signalled the start of classes. As usual, my schedule will be full of group meetings and case studies. Last friday was my first Marketing course and I am very fortunate to have Anton (
who's about to get married in a few days) and Trexyl (
who will be my wedding date to Anton's wedding) as classmates because it means that I won't fall asleep in class. But the drawback of having them as classmates and seatmates also mean that I am again part of the "noisy group at the back of the class". No wonder our professer transferred Trexyl to a different group.
Aside from starting with my graduate school courses, I have also enrolled in
Slimmers World with Connie. Since Connie and I got the 2-year program, I went to Nike Park Glorietta to purchase my first-ever Nike rubber shoes in pink and gray! Karir! I have officially worked out in the gym for 2 days. I have to tell you that going to the gym is definitely a lot of hard work, perseverance and patience. I love using the treadmill. The hatest equipment that I have to do is
The Transport and the hatest thing that is also in my program is crunches. Dear God! Crunches hurt like hell. But I guess if there's no pain, there's no gain. From the time I started working for Select until this day, I have gained about 6 lbs. For a lot of people, this number is so miniscule and can be shed off in a few days. But for a petite girl like me, 6 pounds is A LOT of FAT! So aside from going to gym, I'm cutting down on my food intake, skipping dinner and avoiding fast food like the plague. I am hoping that by the time I walk down the aisle I have already attained my fitness goals such as smaller tummy, smaller arms and thighs and toned muscles.
Speaking of weddings and getting married,
my college summer fling, Claude, will be getting married on January 2007 also. According to chinese beliefs, he should not attend my wedding nor I attend his because this would cause bad luck. Talk about BUMMER! As much as possible, I want all my close friends to be at my wedding and Claude is one of those people. Unfortunately, a belief is a belief. So even if I am not chinese, I have to respect Claude's decisions. I'm hoping that before January 2007, I will be able to convince him and his fiancee that we just need to wear red underwear to counter off whatever bad luck would come during our married life.
So what else is new with me? Well, I recently saw
X-men 3 with Red at Greenbelt earlier. Last week Red and I saw
The Da Vinci Code and we also bumped into Tina and her friends at ATC. The week before that, Jas and I saw
Aquamarine starring Jojo.
Last sunday Jas and I went to BF Homes for dinner at a japanese resto, a little shopping at BF Ruins and a little pampering at
Medispa. BF Homes is my home away from home. It almost has everything in it except a shopping mall and cinema. It's so commercialized in an urbanized way. It's contradicting but I just can't explain it. I like to live in BF Homes again and by the time I can afford to buy a house there, I hope that there would already be water readily available. By the way, BF Homes already has
Sinigang Express which serves very cheap
tapsilog and all the
silogs you can think of.
Sinigang Express is fondly called "SEx". So if ever I tell you,
"Sex tayo.", it just means I want to eat at
Sinigang Express.
It's already a sunday and I still haven't finished this entry. I'm still bored so I guess I'll stay online for a few more minutes and hope that Leny gets back so we can resume chatting.
Maan @ 1:16 AM
