weight gain, blogs of the stars and second hand books

Probably u guys did enjoy your holy week break.Good for you.Well I did not enjoy mine.After my shift last saturday,I went on a swimming with my family in one of the resorts here in Bulacan.Well I thought this is the break that I needed.I forgot that on a holy week like this, resorts were really crowded with people comin from nearby city.I can adjust to the noise and the crowd but what makes it more unenjoyable is that I've seen a familiar face na ayaw ko na makita.The whole time I was thinking na sana nagstay na lang ako sa bahay.haha.But I am glad I had enough rest and sleep the whole sunday and monday, had quality time with my nieces and family and I eat like there's no tomorrow.I so miss my mom's cooking.

I am really dead serious of my weight gain goal and going to the gym.The thing is since wala ngang itotone sa katawan ko so ang kailangan kong gawin now is to do everything to add weight on my skinny body.God knows how I wanted to have that lean and tone body esp during summer season.I am actually taking this chinese medicine which was advertised in Pex that promise I would gain weight in just a few weeks time.maybe out of desperation I took the risk of trying it out.Wala namang masama, marami rin namang nagtestify na effective daw.And so I took the drug.True, the first time I took it, maya maya ang pagkain ko.There was a time pa nga na sumakit ang panga ko kakakain.Ganun katindi yung pagiging matakaw ko ngayon.I am on my fourth day of taking it.I have not check my weight yet but I will update u guys about this.haha.

Blog hopping, I accidentally bumped into these "blogs of stars." These are online journals of some of local famous personalities (showbiz artists, writers, singers etc.).I am really interested on how they live their lives, not just what we are seeing in Television and what is written on the papers.Stalking is really my fave pasttime.hehe.I just realized I really have a thing for rich and famous people.because I wanted to be one.hahaI think lahat naman tayo ganun, eventhough some of us will not admit it pero at one one point in our lives, naging fan tayo ni (insert name of a showbiz personality here) .Minsan nahihiya lang taung aminin .I am at work so in between my calls and while my customer is on hold , I read some of these blogs.

Quarter Life Crisis

They call it the "Quarter-life Crisis."

It is when you stop going along with the crowd and start realizing that there are a lot of things about yourself that you didn't know and may not like.

You start feeling insecure and wonder where you will be in a year or two, but then get scared because you barely know where you are now.

You start realizing that people are selfish and that, maybe, those friends that you thought you were so close to aren't exactly the greatest people you have ever met and the people you have lost touch with are some of the most important ones.

What you do not realize is that they are realizing that too and are not really cold or catty or mean or insincere, but that they are as confused as you.

You look at your job.

It is not even close to what you thought you would be doing or maybe you are looking for one and realizing that you are going to have to start at the bottom and are scared.

You miss the comforts of college, of groups, of socializing with the same people on a constant basis.

But then you realize that maybe they weren't so great after all. You are beginning to understand yourself and what you want and do not want.

Your opinions have gotten stronger.

You see what others are doing and find yourself judging a bit more than usual because suddenly you realize that you have certain boundaries in your life and add things to your list of what is acceptable and what is not.

You are insecure and then secure.

You laugh and cry with the greatest force of your life.

You feel alone and scared and confused.

Suddenly change is the enemy and you try and cling on to the past with dear life but soon realize that the past is drifting further and further away and there is nothing to do but stay where you are or move forward.

You get your heart broken and wonder how someone you loved could do such damage to you or you lay in bed and wonder why you can't meet anyone decent enough to get to know better.

You love someone but maybe love someone else too and cannot figure out why you are doing this because you are not a bad person.

You go through the same emotions and questions over and over and talk with your friends about the same topics because you cannot seem to make a decision.

You worry about loans and money and the future and making a life for yourself and while winning the race would be great, right now you'd just like to be a contender!

What you may not realize is that everyone reading this relates to it.

We are in our best of times and our worst of times, trying as hard as we can to figure this whole thing out.

Thought for the day

Ang ganda nito.I read this somewhere, hindi kona matandaan kung saan, naisave ko lang sa notepad:

" sige maging malungkot ka ngayong gabi, umiyak ka kung gusto mo, dedma ka lang ke lumabas pa uhog mo. Wag mong ipagkait sa sarili mo na maramdaman lahat nang yon...kasi iyon ang nagpapa-tao sayo. At kung bukas may mangyari nang Masaya...maging masaya ka ng todo..humagalpak ka ng todo."

when galera becomes laguna

I am back from vacation mode, hehe.You all know that I went on 2 day vacation leave (gee, its all over my blog).I did enjoy my leave however I was a little disappointed when I knew that the galera getaway will not push through.Unfortunately my college friends changed their plans and we ended up in some private pool somewhere in Pansol Laguna.I never been to galera that is why was really excited, you can just imagine the disappointment I felt.I thought I will really be upset the whole time but I was wrong - sobrang nagenjoy pa rin ako.

Only eight of my blockmates were able to make it - Rudy (class pres), Eugene, randy, Angel, Joan, Ice (but she's with her bf though), Florizel, and argel.Still I had fun.Btw,Most of them are working in call center just like me.So were group of 10 callboys and callgirls.

All the kodakan,kulitan, okrayan,sun-bathing, swimming, booze-drinking, food tripping,videoke galore,and dancing we're all that we need to get away from everything in the city.So these are the highlights of that Pansol Taralets reunion/gimik.

On day one, we wasted our time looking for a place na mura pero maganda.At siyempre kailangan 'yung may TV para mapanood ang Pinoy Big Brother.Dumayo pa ng Laguna manood ng PBB hehe.

Ang mamahal na ng private pool sa Laguna.'Yung nakuha namin is php9000, and we only stayed there from 10pm to 5 pm the next day.Buti na lang sinagot ni Rudy yung ibang expenses.On peak daw kasi ngayon,kaya kahit masama loob namin sa sobrang mahal niya, tumuloy pa rin kami.Nakakapanghinayang yung galera namin, kasi halos ganun din ang amount na magagastos.Natawa ko kay argel,because he kept on asking the whole time "ano kaya kung nasa galera tayo?"Disappointed din siyang katulad ko.hehe.So to cut it short, gabi na nung nakahanap kami ng place, it was 10pm na, tapos bumili pa at nagprepare pa kami ng food.We still had the chance to see Pinoy Big Brother. Congratulations keanna Reeves for winng PBB celebrity Edition.Fanatic hehe.

On 12 midnight till 6am swimming na, inuman tsismisan,at kuwentuhan.

We had this open forum, where everyone will have the chance to ask you personal question.At first I was really nervous kung ano tatanong nila.But I was also surprised myself that I was able to answer them directly, as in with all honestly.I will not divulge the questions they asked me but I am just so happy that naging totoo ko sa kanila.And I hope wala ngang makalabas sa mga sinabi ko sa kanila.

Then on day 2, we had some refresher Course on parlor games / Kiddie games.As in lahat yata ng larong pambata naisip namin dr. quack quack, shagidi shagidi,charades, pinoy henyo, one to three pass, agawan base, open the basket.Sobrang nakakatuwa.The rest of the day,were spent on picture taking, sobrang mga camera whore yung mga kasama ko.hehe.3 of them may digital cameras.

PLM CS BLK 3 Reunion

Somewhere in Pansol Laguna

April 1-2

We left laguna 4pm and I got home 9pm.manonood pa sana ako nung wedding special ni Claudine at raymart pero nakatulugan ko na.hehe.nagising na ko 12 pm the next day.

I almost forgot that it was Nicole's (my niece) Kiddie Birthday Party.She just turned one year old today.So from Bulacan I went to Valenzuela para umatand ng birthday party.Nakakatuwang, nakalungkot na umattend ng ganitong kiddie party.Nakakatuwa dahil napakaraming bata na sobrang kukulit. Pero attending a kiddie party like this will also remind me, that i am not getting any younger.May ganun?!

Tapos yung Jollibee mascot sabi ng ate ko may gusto daw sakin.Paano ba naman pagpasok na pagpasok niya lumapit kaagad sa akin at gusto akong ikiss.Tapos nung sumasayaw siya, lumapit uli sakin, lumuhod pa talaga, inaaya ako sumayaw.Pero magaling sumayaw yung mascot, dancer talaga. I have this feeling na bading yung nasa loob ng mascott na yun.hehe.pagkatapos ng birthday, diretso na ko apartment, natulog lang ng one hour then pasok na uli sa work.And here I am at work. Blogging as usual hehe.I so miss my officemates but not the toxic calls and irate callers that we have.=P

There , that's how I spent my weekend.=P
