I was under the impression that I don't have any improvement since I started doing work out. I was not able to build up the discipline of cutting my food food consumption. I still eat a lot. However,my friends often tell me that I am getting slimmer which I thought was all joke. So seeing this paper and the result was such a surprise. Anyway, I am looking forward to a slimmer me.

Life without sex

After a day of hanging out with KC and JR, we finally decided to part our ways and go home. We were at the back of the bus when KC suddenly opened the topic regarding sex. I know this is not the proper venue for us to talk about it but it was KC who made most of the talk and JR and I just listened so I none of us will mind.

We got to a point where KC told me that I need to have some sex once in a while. He said maybe it is the reason why I get easily stressed out and lose patience as if I am an old maiden. Well I did not take it as something offensive but I took it as an idea or suggestion from someone who is enjoying his life with an active sex life.

I asked most of my friends regarding this theory so as to justify KC’s idea. Most of them agreed that indeed, sex can relax your troubled mind and some how takes you off the feeling of anxiety. It adds spice to your life. They may enumerate a hundred and one benefits of having sex but I am not sure if I will understand most since I lack the experience. Yes, I lack experience, so naïve of me.

All I can say is that it not in sex that I will find happiness or escape from this exhausting world. Maybe sex can give them the ecstasy to lift them when their down, but I have my ways to shrug off the unwanted feelings that’s consuming me. Actually, I was under the impression that sex should be done when both are madly in love and it is their way of expressing the overflowing feeling they have for each other. Having this in mind, I will not do this act until I find the person to share the other side of my bed.

Post Birthday Celebration

My birthday celebration continues as my family and I went to do the ultimate taste test on the food at Mann Hann restaurant located at the trinoma mall. We ordered pata tim, fish and tofu, roasted chicken, shanghai rolls, mixed vegetables and yang chow rice. We also tried their leche flan and cheese cake. Also with us is my best friend JR, who took his time out and celebrate with us. KC should’ve been here as well but was not able to come because of his tight schedule. As the food flood on our table, everybody became silent as we savor each and every dish that is right in front of us. I really had a great time spending this day with them.

Few days after this, I also celebrated my birthday with my closest friends at Convergys. Right after our shift we went straight to Café Agogo at Ortigas. We had our breakfast and then take a few sip of lemon slush.

Simple yet fun filled day spent with them. These people actually have this ability to change simple day to an extraordinary and amazing day filled with good memories. I just love to be with them always!

When is my turn?

It was one steaming hot afternoon; I was heading home when I suddenly saw two guys at the mall. I thought they are just ordinary friends but my eyes gleamed by what I saw. I noticed that they were holding hands. I suddenly smile when I saw them. They seemed to be proud of what they were doing. I wonder where they were heading. Maybe they are about to go to some place where they could talk or probably eat. Maybe they’ll have a date or whatsoever. But one thing I know for sure, they are together.

I feel very ecstatic and happy whenever I saw two men together having special feelings for each other. I know some friends that are happily together and I often ask them how it started. Well, every one of them tells me their story and to be honest, I really adored each one of them. Also, it was amazing that those stories that you often see on the movie really happens.

As for me, I am still single and I am happy. But I don’t want to be hypocrite. I really wanted to experience the feeling of being in a relationship. How I often wanted to have someone who will restrict me from going out or doing something. I wanted to be with someone who will go out with me and have a dinner or maybe watch a feel good movie. I wanted to have someone who’ll talk to me on the phone for hours, even if I’m just talking about non-sense things. I always wanted to assume that somebody is waiting for me in front of my office building because he will walk me home. How I dreamed of a guy who will comfort me when I’m down and laugh with me when something is funny. I just hate the truth that the delusion of finding that person is really hard.

I have been on my own for 24 years already. I know how it feels to be alone and the worst part is that as time goes by, the feeling is getting worst. I always tell my self, good things come to those who wait. But how long should I wait. I’ve read some stories regarding the reasons for being single. Maybe it is indeed my fault that I am still single because I don’t go out often, I don’t socialize but I don’t know where to start. I mean should I change myself just to be loved? Am I that bad?

I guess I would have to leave it all to destiny (if there is such). So foolish of me, yes. Maybe I’m just confused or maybe I’m better off alone. Or maybe I just have to wait a little more. Well as for now, I am happy to see that people of my gender already had their chance.

As I close the door of my room, lay on my bed and stare at the ceiling, I wonder.. when is my turn?

A Glimpse of my 23rd year

Today is my birthday. I just turned 24. I stared at my reflection in the mirror and thought of things I have been though, things that made a significant mark in my book.

Last year was a year of adventure for me. I have been to different place I thought I can only see in pictures. I went up the mountains and feel the cool breeze of Baguio, fought the waves and swim in the depths of sea at Puerto Galera, then flew all the way south and felt the fine powder-like sand of Bohol.

I also made a lot of friends last year. I can literally count them in my hands but I know they are true. We’ve been thru a lot (I mean a lot) already and I know I can count on them thru thick and thin. This is one thing I can definitely thanks CVG for, because working with the company allows me to meet this people.

I was once an achiever. I always wanted to be on top. Every time I step in the glass doors of the office, I made sure that I will put on my signature on my works. I wanted to be remembered. I wanted to be recognized. Awards and certificate means a lot to me as they boost my confidence and morale. But all of this ended surprisingly bad but the experience itself taught me to be strong. I can say that that experience is one of the best and so far the greatest experience I can ever think of whenever I think of my days when I was still 23. I owe this all to you SIR!

My birthday wish?
All I can think of as of now is that I wanted to become a better person. I know I’m not perfect and I’m not the only one. In fact, everybody is. Well, I know I have been very bad and unreasonable but this coming year, I promise to make it up. I will try to improve myself and try to become if not best then at least better person.


I am looking forward to new experiences this year and I know that my best years are still yet to come.
