05/14 – Day 173: Dinner with old friends

I had salad and pizza… drank an alcoholic beverage after 2 months and ate as if I am not on a diet. I walked along the streets of Bacolod and talked about random stuffs and gossips. I laughed big time during dinner and I must say that was again the most stressful dinner that I had after the Boracay lunch that we had together 2 years ago. Stressful — yes, you can not eat seriously because you are laughing almost all the time.

Anyways, I am out with my college friends, the people that made my senior life in college funnier and memorable. I met them when I joined the yearbook team and I guess losing the senate position was surely a blessing as it paved way to my life as an associate editor. It’s been two years and the friendship is still there, I guess we really clicked as a team that after graduation we still clicked as friends. We still met up once in a while and tonight was one of those crazy meet ups that we have. Whenever we are together, we are indecisive on where to eat and will take us a couple of minutes to an hour just to decide where to dine or where to go after unless one will finally take charge because it’s been taking too long for us to choose the place.

It was an epic night because of the random bloopers that we had in a mexican restaurant. We call it the “Salsa Rojo” incident that will be a private joke that we will surely remember for years along the “Tearrified and Moonwalk” jokes.

Oh well, glad to have awesome friends that can surely make you laugh your ass out of your seats. 😉

03/25 – Day 123: ChocoChip Madness

Okay, starting this week I will try to eat something healthy but since I don’t care that much with my calorie intake anymore I decided to spoil myself. Well, thank you to my good friend and previous teammate who supplies us with Chicken chips and chocolate chips cookies — I think I’ll be gaining those fats that I shed for the past 2 weeks again. 🙂

23, food, life, writing

03/24 – Day 122: Summer!

Oh yeah finally I tried Mc Donald’s summer medley floats. It’s refreshing — YES. Well this picture is really more than that…

Let’s talk about summer, not the movie but the time of the year wherein all you want is to chill and run on the sands of the best beaches near you. You definitely have the time to do what you want to do… the freedom from school works, projects and meetings. Well, that was years ago and now I am employed to a company wherein holidays and definitely summer is not a time for us to take a break. It is still work, work and work to meet the business needs of course. Welcome to the cruel world! Oh well… life as we definitely know it.

Anyways, this summer I want to decide into something that will make my life change. Maybe try to make up my mind if I will really take up Master’s degree or not, try to venture out and look for a different career opportunities that will hone my skills and make me the best that I can be and also to be free from all the responsibilities for a week.

Retrospectively speaking, I just want to try something different, my ability is on a par with my ambitions. What I have now is something I can enjoy for the moment but I know this will not last for long. My mind may be into it because I want to excel in everything that I do but I can never cheat my heart. I tried to fall in love with my work but then I am here because I fell for someone. Oh, it did not make sense — just don’t mind me I’m blabbing again. Sorry!

Summer — right.

Day 122 is awesome because of the USLS – CRCY Senior’s Tribute. I salute all the seniors who dared to make a difference, who spent their free time doing worthwhile humanitarian activities all for the love of Red Cross and who never quit despite all the odds. The odds indeed was in their favor though. They surpassed it all victoriously. Thank you to those who were inspired by my impromptu speech. It’s been a while since the last time I gave one but whatever it was that I have said last night, I mean it. All the good memories you had — cherished it and all the struggles you have faced on the way — just smile as you have overcome it. I hope that graduation is not the end of it all. Please do continue to take care of other people and support the causes of the premiere humanitarian organization. I just can’t let go of something so inspiring… who I am today is a product of what I have learned from my past.

This is the start of my summer. The time wherein I am inspired to inspire. Live. Laugh. Love.

P.S.: I’m thinking of an awesome beach trip… WHERE TO? 🙂

03/21 – Day 119: Magnum

Magnum chocolate.

I remembered I began tweeting about this like a month ago before it hit the market when Raymond Gutierrez began tweeting about it. I am more of a Cornetto lover but of course I won’t deny that I always scream for ice cream as it’s the best pick me upper after a long and stressful day. Anyways, I tried Magnum ice cream for the first time. It is a bit expensive compared to its competitors but I can say that it’s the best treat if your day had been so totally messed up with that you just want a royal treatment. The chocolate coating and the vanilla ice cream inside is really yummy. It is the best source of sudden joy because it is indeed chocolate-y.

Oh well, Cornettos are still irreplaceable in my heart. Magnum is good, let’s eat it just once a month!haha so save up… 😉
