I got an email earlier last week that she is coming this way very soon. She also left her number so i could text her. As i want to really meet her even long time ago, i texted her and of course wanted a meet-up! And we did! Last Saturday (February 27, 2010, 5:30 pm)

We just asked any of the waiters to take a picture of us. This is just for documentation purposes but i cropped it to hide my big tummy. hahahaa Yen is very beautiful and in person. She got a very sweet and friendly smile that right away i feel it’s like we’re not meeting for the first time. We had a quick dining at Mandarin REsto at the Gaisano Mall.
Yen is the author of the blogs, Notablebistro and Around the World and Me and Mine. Something went wrong with her Me and Mine so the blog does not currently exist. We met online through blogging in 2007 (just when i started blogging) and it’s so nice to feel that after two years we met in person.
Thank you Yen for taking time to meet. I now understand how busy you are and at least this time you took time to see me. Nagkita na jud ta! I hope we meet again next time and promise I won’t be in a hurry to leave for an appointment.
This meeting made me wish for meetings with other online friends in the future. It’s great online kindness and friendliness be felt in the real world.

I had my hair cut. New look. New style. Hopefully it will give me a new mood. hahaha. I had my hair and pedi done at Reyes Hair Center. The woman assigned to me does not have a TLC touch. I loudly groan in pain when she tried to reach out the deepest side of my toenails to pick a dead skin. She has a sort of heavy hand. Even on my hair, she does not a smooth move. Thanks though she did cut it right to what i want.
While i was waiting for my turn, i can’t help to think of what transpired before i left the dorm. Haii mommy life! I wish am not yet a mommy now. I felt a bit bad about it but to give her a lesson, i did give her a very hard one.
Photo to follow tomorrow.
I already made peace! Am not the one who harbors anger deep in me. You are forgiven BUT it does not mean the pain was forgotten. (Do i make sense?)
I can still see you and smile with you and exchange pleasantries with you in the future, but, whatever you did before i forgave you — can never be forgotten. Though it does not also mean that i still will hate you now because i can’ forget that incident, it will just remind me that i should be more careful or cautious. (Do i really make sense?)
So, there is a tendency that the closeness before will never be that close again in the present time.

So much opposite of the text that goes with this devotional -
The Lord says, “Forget what happened before, and do not think about the past. Look at the new thing I am going to do. It is already happening. Don’t you see it? I will make a road in the desert and rivers in the dry land.” ~ Isaiah 43:18-19 NCV
This devotional peace was shared with me through email subscription and i just like to share the beautiful quote that goes along with it:
“The wise man gives proper appreciation in his life to his past. He learns to sift the sawdust of heritage in order to find the nuggets that make the current moment have any meaning.” ~ Grady Nutt.
There is one department here in school whose computers are connected to the internet through the wireless system. They thought that if they are using wireless, they are not prone to internet bugs. So they did not check on the latest wireless security systems because they thought they are safe. How wrong they are because last Tuesday, 4 of their computers crashed down and the reason is that their connection was not protected. As of the moment, the pc being fixed and hopefully it will be back on the system soon to expidite work.


I saw him only once last Saturday. I was suppose to see him again Tuesday morning but he died Monday evening. It was a sad happening but at least he is now resting in peace. When i saw him last Saturday, and knew about his plight, i just knew he is going to die soon. But not that sooner.

It was a beautiful morning. It would have been a great decision if i went to the gym that morning. But i did my laundry and ironing, so i have an excuse not to feel guilty about missing gym on a Sunday morning.
Yesterday i wrote in my facebook shoutout that how i wish that blogging can encourage sweat glands to work. hahaha I love the thought of sweating out when blogging or when thinking what to write. Then my college roommate replied that i should follow her weight loss program so that i too would lose lots in 3 weeks. I replied to her to send me all the info then who knows i would try.
Last week a friend of mine came to visit to introduce me to her new-found business. A networking of healthy green capsules. She wanted to endorse the product to me. Sounds interesting but I turned down the offer because am not in great financial situation. But i told her not to get discourage because who knows in the coming months, my finances will get better.
Another friend also told me that she is taking phentermine and so i told her if she was able to read online more info about this pill that some women are crazy about. She said yeah she has read it and has answered some questions. I can’t say yes or no in behalf of her because i haven’t tried Phentermine. The only capsules i did try was Green capsules from Rejuvination.
My Project 365 is being updated and you can checked it out here. I have 22 photos up as of today and that’s the total for my project 365 since i started early in January. I am suppose to do do clicking daily but because of too much work, I just forgot at times and also when am out I forgot my camera at the office. Just now, I posted my 22nd photo.
I’ve been doing my tasks one by one, from one blog to another and I realized that often I am doing nutrisystem reviews and i find it very informative. Informative not only for me but for everyone especially those who are on diet and weight conscious. Earlier i was invited to a birthday celebration at the HR office and before i could start eating, I saw a weighing scale at one corner and automatically I checked my weight and it’s unbelievable. It seems the weighing scale is broken or just too kind. hahaha

I can vividly remember the time i posted this card for my family here in the Philippines. I posted it a week after i visited the Great Wall of China.
I love my China days and up to now i still miss many of my happy memories out there. Even the bad ones, they are still worth reminiscing. It was also there that i have discovered how important natural appetite suppressants are to Chinese women that is why they are as thin as the bamboo stick. But really, i always tell my chinese girl friends to eat well and eat healthy so that they will look more beautiful.
