I'm starting a new life...

... as me. Of course, but improved. You know, like Moe version 1.2. But I don't want to think of myself as a software that easily gets updated and can be downloaded by anyone.
Anyway, yesterday was my first day at the gym. Actually, I went with my mom. So you see, my question, which was published in Candy Magazine this October, was really... good for something.
Yesterday, I had a great time at the gym. In case you want to know, I really NEED to work out. Please, don't ask questions but I'm just glad that my BMI, which stands for Body Mass Index, is 19. If your BMI is 18 or less, you're underweight. So, I'm normal. But I still NEED to work out because, I have more body fat than I'm supposed to have. So, my mom and I hired a personal trainer that guided us and helped us with everything. (God bless him.) He was sooo patient and sooo kind. Although it was just weird because he kept on looking at mom's tummy. Hehe. ^___^
My mom and I had a great time yesterday. A really great bonding moment... and a good start to a new us. Hehe. It was a bit tiring and some parts are really... aching. But I know that's normal.
(I'm watching a show in ABS-CBN right now, and I realized that Danilo Barrios is still cute... and Jake Cuenca is hot.)
Today, we went to watch Trisha because they have this literary contest at school and she's the only representative for Grade 5. :D Of course, we're giving our all-out support. We've been there the whole day and we watched the whole literary and musicale contest. I saw my old teachers and others... Hehe. Our family's quite famous there... because all 5 of us went to study there. ^__^
Sooo... Trisha won! She's really a good actress. I was on the verge of crying but I stopped myself because I would look weird afterwards. She's like Nikki Tacata (in terms of acting) who is currently with the Harlequin Theater Guild. Anyway, I wish that Trisha will take after Nikki because, when it comes to dancing and acting (and everything else), Nikki is absolutely the best. Hehe.
After the contest, we went to SM Sucat to have some stuff returned and exchanged at CD-R King. I bought this IRDA thingy for my phone so I could transfer my pictures from phone to laptop but... it's not working. I've tried it using my bro's phone but nada. So I want to exchange it with another unit but they won't allow me because there must be something wrong with the thing itself since someone also returned one this day. They wanted me to choose for a substitute... and I chose a webcam. It's very nice and I hope that it will have a long life. And what's really fun is that it also has a built-in microphone. Cheers!
And tonight, I had a chat with a really good friend. Her name's Therese and she's absolutely great. I had a bout of depression and she stayed with me to cheer me up when she should be studying and resting instead. (Thank you so much!)
So here are quotes from her:
"i set out on a narrow way many years ago, hoping I would find true love along the broken road but I got lost a time or two, wiped my brow and kept pushing through.. I couldnt see how every sign pointed straight to you =) every long lost dream led me to where you are, others who broke my heart, they were like northern stars pointing me on my way into your loving arms, this much I know is true that God blessed the broken road that led me straight to you =)"
"and this is not the time for me to take a trip down memry lane and remember every John, Dick and Harry that took me for granted and made me feel like I'm damaged goods or that I'm not good enough"
"Sometimes I sit at home and wonder how it be if he had loved me, truly loved me yes, I learned awhile ago that kind of thing it never happens for me, and so I go around and just pretend love is not for me I play the circus clown around my friends make them laugh and they wont see that you never let them see you sweat dont want them to think the pain runs deep, lord knows its killing me"
"So i put on my make up put a smile on my face and if anyone ask me everything is ok im laughing cos no one knows the joke is on me cos im dyin inside with my pride and a smile on my face...on my face singing, la la la, la la, lalala, la la, la la, la la, la la, la la, la la la Laaaa"
"Sometimes i sit at home by the phone hoping he might call me but he dont call me but then I realize dreams come true arent for girls like me not like me, and so i go around with my head up like it aint no thing and when the boys around with all my friends im into other things cos you never let them see u sweat dont want them to think the pain runs deep, lord knows its killing me""Somethings wrong with any guy who looks at you and doesnt see that youre the kind of girl they should be spending their time and effort looking for"
That's not all, but I know that you see my point. We're on the same boat... and she was a great help for me. May God bless her.
*sigh* I'm so tired now... Ta ta for now.
Good night!

Exercise releases endorphins that make you feel better too, besides all the other health benefits. Nice to bond with your Mom, huh? Many people I know have discovered that their parents are people too, not just parents as they grow older and you encounter they same problems that like did long ago, often under more trying circumstances.
Hugs to you dear lady! :)

Anyway, hugs to you too!
