back to OPM. may alam ba kayong radio station na nag-pplay ng puro OPM? yun ngang mga aforementioned ko na bands ha, hindi mga novelty songs, bwehehehe. meron daw sa NU kaya lang di ko alam kung anong day/oras.

ayan, kakatapos ko ang mag-rip. tama kaya ginawa ko? minsan, kinakain ako ng bagong teknolohiya eh... hihihi.

philippines, you rawwwwwkkk! :)

nalulungkot ako

TOXIIIIIIICCCCC!!!!!

day ONE

i'm going to do the south beach diet. haaaay. after the christmas break i found out na nag gain ako ng 2 kgs! hmph.

so what's the south beach diet? it's basically low carbs high protein. mas okay lang nga sya sa atkins kasi i'll get to eat good carbs din naman... eventually. based on my own understanding (ge, correct me if i'm wrong), the principle behind this diet is that because the body cannot burn carbohydrates as its source of energy (kasi nga you lessen your carbs intake), it would burn the fats instead. yeah, goodbye flab! and if i remember correctly from my zoo 10 class which seemed eons ago, fat is actually a more efficient source of energy than carbs. parang ganon kaya nga lang it's not as readily available as carbs.

the diet is comprised of 3 phases. during the first 2 weeks (phase one), there will be no carbs AT ALL. only lean meat. no fruits also because they contain sugar. by the end of phase one, i should have lost some 8-13 pounds already. phase two is when i start to introduce some good carbs back in my diet. like fruits and i think whole wheat bread. after each week of phase two, i would still be losing some 1-2 pounds. phase 2 lasts until i reach my desired weight. then comes phase three. i think phase three is when i can almost eat anything i want but since i'm not used to eating big servings anymore, i would be able to regulate my food intake unconsciously.

so starting today, i bid farewell to my best friends go nut donuts and chocolates! haaaay. i'll miss you all. i'll see you all again when i'm 49 kgs. tears... :(

according to this SITE, the medical reccomendation for my gender (F) and height (5'1") is 49-60 kgs. halllow! 60 is FAT AND BOCHOG na kaya for me. so 49 na lang, hehehe. my BMI (Body Mass Index) is currently 22.9 kg/m^2 and i fall within the normal range/ideal weight which is 19.1-25.8 for women. unbelievable! baka naman not for asians ito. but i feel fat na talaga eh so i'll really try to lose weight.

for breakfast today, i ate tuna flakes guisado and drank a tall glass of water only.

serioso na 'to! :p

ang pasko'y sumapit :)

the past christmas was my happiest to date. mejo matagal ko ng pinagninilaynilayan kung bakit... the answer: you're not gonna believe this (coming from me)! si jesus. :D

pano ba naman kasi, ako eh yung type na, yep i'm catholic, period. ganon lang. going to mass was just some kind of obligation, a family affair during saturdays or sundays.

but attending misa de gallo changed all that. yung pagsisimba every night made me feel light hearted afterwards. happy. ang galing, yung essence ng simbang gabi, which is actually a preparation for the self to accept christ's coming and love on christmas day, was not lost in me. hindi yung sisimba ka dahil masarap ang simoy ng hangin or masarap yung puto bumbong afterwards. :D

sabi pa nung pari nung christmas homily... love is the reason for this season. tama! kaya masaya ang pasko ko ay dahil christ gave me so much love the past months... buo ang pamilya ko ngayon, there's gerald, my imed friends who i never get tired of seeing everyday.. ganon. naintindihan ko na rin sa wakas. let me change that. i'm just STARTING to understand it.

i don't think i made any sense. hahaha!! i've barely scratched the surface of what i've wanted to say, of what i'm feeling. :)

eto o, picture!!! our church, on christmas eve:

kinda malabo, just from my trusty 6230. yung guy na andon, di ko kakilala, paharang harang sa camera! hehehe. kahiya naman patabihin di ba. :D

stuck in a rut

enter quasi-depression mode. i've been going nowhere in the past few days. not literally though. every other day, my family and i go out. i'm just feeling unaccomplished lately. i haven't done anything for my personal growth. reel from the shock and actually believe that maan de castro starts talking about personal growth. hahaha.

i've been wanting to change THIS layout for one. i have a concept already but it just wouldn't fully materialize. hay nako.

i said that i'd get to watch all the film festival entries. but i haven't even seen one movie. my family's too tamad to go watch movies.

ever since the vacation started, i've planned to study our lessons in preparation for toxicity galore. i've done nothing but schedule and line up all those that i have to study. i've only read like 5 pages of developmental biology and never even bothered with the other subjects. lagot ka maan!

i've accomplished two things though: baking a LOT of cookies (choco chip, white choco chip, macaroons--the best!, snickerdoodles and crinkles) and finishing she's come undone (whatta nice book!). there. seeing that in writing (typing) made me smile. :)

i can't wait for classes to start. some kind of loser i am. nyahahaha. :p
