a new day


"is it so small a thing
to have enjoy'd the sun,
to have lived light in the spring,
to have loved, to have thought, to have done
to have advanced true friends, and beat
down baffling foes".....?


at last! after more than a week of downpour, the sun graces us with her presence today. it seems like a new day to me. one of my electric fan is broken. one of the air conditioner conked out but i am fine with it. its part of starting a new day.

after a couple of month's hibernation, i went out last weekend and enjoyed the city. watched a couple of movies with friends and had a great time catching up. eating was not in the agenda, just coffee and tea to sustain our thirst and all. hey after being careful with what i ingest, i am happy to say that i can do it. not having sweets and stuffing myself with all those fatty and unhealthy food. it didn't went like a breeze but i am proud of myself and my self control. all i have to face now, is exercise and shed off some of all the unwanted pounds. not that i have illusions to be back with my post pregnancy figure, but just getting rid of the pesky love handles. besides, the hubby likes me fine being pleasantly plump. urrrgggg!!!!!

i hope i could put up with the promise of blogging from now on. i will try my best. it is so liberating to share some insights and my thoughts with this. or as i told a friend, maybe i will put my thoughts in a journal entry type. let us see if i will have the gumption to do it. anyway, have a great week folks.

a recluse no more

that's it. i am tired of being a recluse. i think it is high time for me to go out from my hiding place. my friends are all upset that i don't attend parties with them or watch a movie anymore. i told them that i was just bidding my time. i wanted to take it slowly while recuperating from my recent illness. i wasn't idle though these past few months. i rearranged the furnitures, updated my photo albums and covered almost all my most treasured possessions - books.

i am feeling fine now and super excited to do my christmas shopping. one thing i hate is doing it on the eleventh hour. i have to avoid the crowd and the rush. also, i have to expose myself again so that people will remember me to include in their christmas list. hahahaha

davao city has been wet for the past week. it's been raining everyday. but it won't stop me from going out again and enjoy the company of my friends and family. there are new places to explore and sights to be seen. will keep you updated guys. ciao!
