From OPI Summer Flutter Minis!

So I am not really obese or anything. I am just a bit heavier than what I am supposed to be. Normally I am okay with a few extra poundage but right now, the “extra” is taking a toll on my self-esteem. Seriously.

I know I need to exercise more. But food is yummy and I love being lazy. So everyday is a battle for me. (Yes I know how to rhyme)

Yuck, I sound like some kind of addict. Maybe I’m addicted to being lazy? LOL! Nina, that’s bad ah! Don’t be lazy! Exercise!

I’m trying my best and loving my new hobby which is biking! What’s the correct term – biking or cycling? Whatever! It’s not like I aim to join marathons or what, I’m just trying it out.

My New Bike!
(Thank you, Randy for my bike!)

Oh that’s not Randy! That’s our friend Jerome who took us to the place where we bought this bike. Thanks also, Joms!

That’s another thing, I do not like photos of myself being taken lately because I feel really fat and I’m not happy about it. My low self-esteem is showing in the photos and I hate dislike it.

I have not been to True Yoga in a while but I suppose it’s okay, my contract with them is ending anyway and the sales people in the place are just plain annoying! But to be fair to the instructors, they are uber nice. I bought a Yoga mat so that I can do poses here at home. I have about a month ’til our family vacation and I expect a number of photos to be taken on that time span so I am really working hard to lose the poundage. I need a vain inspiration.

I am working on it. Promise.

I am currently hooked on OPI Minis. Everytime I see a new collection in Sephora, I just can’t resist them! I can rationalize the amount spent on 4 different colors in tiny 3.75 mL bottles than that of a single 15mL one. Errr, right?

More OPI Mini's!

Randy said I just used all my fingers to picked my nose.

Gross.

To which I replied “actually, plema ko ‘to.”

Mas gross.

I spend to much time with this guy.

“Now you know how to greet people in Lolspeak!”

That’s how Flickr greeted me when I logged in a minute ago. LOL!

Ate is already complaining why I have not been updating my blog. It’s really Twitter’s fault! And now there’s Foursquare! It’s not me, Ate! It’s all these Social Media sites! Hahahaha!

Anyway, here’s the past month in Photos

Warning: There *might* be too much of Randy. I do not like taking photos of myself lately (because of the fatness). Hence the Randy’s. Don’t say I didn’t warn you!

Randy’s Manbag
Randy's new man-bag
Eversince Randy was diagnosed with Gastritis, his been carrying around my BYOB bag that I bought from Fully Booked in Powerplant. But lately, it started to stink – with all the different kinds of food and bananas he stuffs in it. He claims that he has been putting it in the washing machine regularly but it didn’t help at all. Then on a random trip to The Body Shop, I found this! “Green is not a colour. It’s a state of mind.” Fits perfectly for this green-blooded Lasalista! Hahahaha!

We Rule
We Rule
OMG, I was hooked on this game for a couple of weeks! It’s like an online Age of Empires minus the wars! Then they started to have all these upgrades over the weekend that have been preventing me from logging in during the most boring hours. So I got frustrated and started to move on. But I still log-in every now and then.

Negative 14 degrees Celsius in SG
Snow City
For about a year I have been nagging Randy to take me to Snow City. And when we finally got there we were like “This is it?!” Seriously, not worth it. We spent a few extra to get the photos so that at least we took something with us. (Personal cameras were not allowed)

Former Baristas
Randy with his idol
Wheeee! It’s been 5 years since the first time we met – in Starbucks!

Hola Drea!
Drea!
Breakfast with Drea at the Ritz Carlton! 9C Gluttony revisited!

The Sims 3
Sims 3 Ambitions Expansion Pack
After a short break from this game, I have finally caught up with the expansion packs! I always look forward to Lazy Weekends! But promise, I control how long I play the game. I don’t go beyond 4 hours straight anymore ;)

I don’t think I need to comment on this

This afternoon at Borders
Fffound!
Hahahahahahah! We went inside Borders and separated because we had different tastes in literature. When I was done with my purchase, I was going around the huge bookstore for about 5 minutes when I saw this at the Graphic Novel Section. Kid at heart?

That’s it for now. I haven’t uploaded all the photos. Will try to blog more, Ate ah! “Try” being the keywork :P

Some people think to highly of themselves and they do not even stop to ponder how they are living a life of deceit.

Listen sweetheart, I could not care less about you but stop stomping on my friend! Stop trying to fool her that she’s one of your closest friends when the moment she turns her back, you get high and mighty all over again.

You are one of those whom a lot of people can live without.

FYI, just in case you are unaware it.

Whatevs!

PS: I almost wrote “Task” instead of “Tsk.” Aaaaaack! No work stuff please!

Shared this dish with Randy. Mmmmm!

And so that I can try more dishes, I ordered from the Kid’s menu. Hahahah!

I luv Santana!

I’m adding her to my list of fave Glee folks along with Kurt and Sue Sylvester!

On a semi-related note, bathroom dance anyone?

ZOMG. Mama now has Facebook and Twitter! I still do not know how to react to it.

But can I just say how proud I am of Mama? She is now an Apple-convert. She got herself an iPad. Everyday I receive an email from her and her signature goes “Sent from my iPad.” Hehehe! In addition to that, she knows how to work a MacBook better than the original owner, Papa. I think Papa is handing over his MacBook Pro to Mama and will buy himself a non-Apple. Sigh!

On a different note, I just need to transcribe the conversation I had with Nina earlier…

Me: I have new games in my iPhone. I will let you play them when we see each other.
Nina: You have Plants vs. Zombies!
Me: Yes, how did you know?
Nina: I read it in you blog!

Hahahahahah! She’s so cute!

I miss them!

I found his little prayer at the the St Paul store in SM Davao last December. I always see to it that I start the day with this prayer. It keeps me grounded and reminds me to have faith.

Sweet Jesus, lay Your wounded hand upon my head and bless me.
Stretch forth that same dear hand and bless each on at home.
Give me Your staff.
Help me to go around in Your fold just for today doing Your work in Your way.
Push me back when I would go wrong and make me go forward when I am afraid to do right.
Be with me in my dealings with each person with whom I come in contact and grant that each day I may know, love and serve You better for having passed me by.
I want to know love and serve You above all things.
And when life’s little day is ended and its task complete, give me a place at Your feet to rest for all eternity.
My dearest Lord, what do you send me today? Humiliations, contradictions, physical sufferings, bad news which I do not expect, an aching heart, a failure?
Shall I see myself misjudged, wrongly suspected, despised?
All that You wish, O my God; I accept them in advance, and if I weep through weakness, regard it not; if I murmur, check me; if I am forgetful, punish me; if I am discouraged, raise me up.
But through it all, teach me to say, “Thy will be done.”
Amen.

Prayer Tex by Richard Card. Cushing

This is a simple and beautiful prayer and I recommend that you also start your day with it.

Have a blessed week ahead!
