When The Training Turned Into Eating Marathon

2016-03-03T14:24:00.001+08:00

I'm Oh I must say I love Shanghai! At first I was not feeling comfortably with how most of the people cannot speak english. So I was stuck with how am I gonna speak to them?! In the long run the journey turned out to be appreciation of the culture. I was here for merely two days but looking around, curiosity gets the best of me. The more I want to learn to speak Chinese! The environment seems lay back to me compared to Singapore. Yes most of the time you feel the danger (lol), the traffic, cars coming from every directions. But deep inside me, I feel drawn. And the best part is?!

Eating Chinse food in China. The food is just so great. I want to try everything! I must get my husband come along with me next time! Here are some of the food I feasted during my two days stay here!

I don't want to blame my roommate slamming the door or the coffee I took before hitting sack neither. Coz if I want to sleep, I can sleep. I was so f-king sleepy, lazy and tired on my way to office and I was looking forward to this moment when my back would be touching my bed! But I.just.could.not.sleep!

What is wrong with me?!

Gods, please let me sleep now. I have a lot of work to do tomorrow.

Happy Anniversary To Me!

Oh yes! I am very very back my friends! (Kaway-kaway!)

At kung ang aking last post ay tungkol sa pagpayat na "how to lose weight take 2", don't fret my friends dahil aabot pa yan sa "take to the nth power" .

Yes yes yes, tama ang hinala nyo. Nakikita ko pa kayong gasping in shock. Not that the steps are not effective, it's because of discipline issues. Chararat!

Anyway highway, anyare pagtapos ng mahigit kumulang one and half years na pananahimik ng emotera?!

Well, well, well...naadik ako sa trabaho at sa wattpad. Bwahahaha. Lakongpake sa comments (oo, nababasa ko ang mga utak nyo) na ka-jologans ang wattpad. At binaon ko ang aking sarili sa dagsa-dagsang excel files.

But before we go in depth of what happened for the past 18 months to be exact, paki-bati naman ako!

It's my 3rd year here in Singapore as bagong bayani. Sa likod ng luha at lungkot, mula sa kaibuturan ng aking puson este puso, I am still thankful to my host country sa pagkupkop sa pala-away na nilalang - ako yon. At, sa aking ever loved bestfriend, Sharon. Thanks to her for opening windows, doors and covers of opportunities to create changes in our lives especially my children. Lab u bes!

I have gained enemies (na wala naman akong pake) but more importantly, I have gained a family.

How To Lose Weight - Take 2, Action

2013-05-27T06:52:00.001+08:00

Today is my first day of one of the many million regimes on how to lose weight - again! I have searched and searched since time immemorial but only this one that I have read that made sense to me. For one, it's fast. Second, it doesn't suggest starvation. Third, it also involved work out. And most importantly, it's free! Yoko ko ngang me bayad at lalong ayoko na yung presyo ang magpapayat sa akin (I don't want to pay and more so let the price slims me down).

As a backgrounder, let me share with you my monstrous pic before this regime as well as my irresistible vital statistics.

Age: 36 (oh yes ma-shonda na ko, e ano naman?!)

Height: Secret (ka height ko ang dating presidente)

Weight: Almost 60 kilos (oo na, I can hear you, I'm faaaaatttt!)

Vital Statistics: (drum roll please!)

36-33-35

But there's more,,,,

That measurement does not include my bulging tummy which is my main concern.

If you will let me wear a stripped yellow and orange costume, I will be the midget version of the infamous fast food chain in the Philippines.

Another drum roll please.

That's me folks!

Grabe noh?! My profile pic looks exactly the same with this one. Lols!

Anyway, please join me in my journey and hope fully something will happen out of this sacrifice. Before jumping into any regime, make your goal clear so you know what to achieve. Personally, i want to shed off those belt bag tummy, log-like arms and ultimately lose weight and fit to clothes that I really like.

That's all for now fans. :-p

2012-09-23T07:08:00.003+08:00

ganyan ung panahon na nakasama ko si house husband. sa sobrang bilis, parang nilipad lang ng hangin ung oras at panahon - hindi mo namalayan hindi mo na mabalik.

for his entire stay, i did not write anything. sa sobrang saya ko, kahit na cliche na, words are not enough to describe my happiness - ganon din ang pakiramdam ko ngaun.

nag blog lang ulit kase wala naman na akong ibang gagawin maliban dito.

back to the same boring de-latang life.

back to being alone and lonely.

wala ring room mate.

pero wala namang choice kundi moving on. i cannot stop here.

rh bill sa aking emoterang pananaw

2012-08-18T22:04:00.002+08:00

ang rh bill po ay hindi red horse bill kundi reproductive health bill na sa loob ng 13 years or so ay pinagtatalunan na ng iba't ibang panig at grupo sa pilipinas. ito ay naglalayong mapabuti ang antas ng pangangalaga sa mga kababaihan at ang malalim na pagpapahalaga sa pagpaplano ng pamilya sa pamamagitan ng malawakang pagsulong ng paggamit ng mga contraceptives gaya ng condom, pills at iud. ang mga pro ay nagsasabing sa rh bill maaaring ma-kontrol ang sa ngayon ay mabilis na tumataas ng populasyon ng pilipinas at kalaunan ay maging sagot sa pag kontrol ng malawakang kahirapan sa bansa.

whew - ang lalim non. wala namang masama sa layunin ng mga pro. sang ayon ako. sabi nga ng congresswoman na sumali sa grand debate ng gma 7 noong may 2011, common sense lang yan. totoo naman. sa economist, law of supply and demand. pag marami ng consumers, tumataas ang presyo therefore maraming ng hindi makaka avail. sa unit ng pamilya, ito ay tumutugon sa edukasyon, pagkain at mga basic needs. pag marami ng anak, empre hindi na kayang i-provide with the same quantity and quality ang kanilang basic needs. may tama si congressman!

pero, datapwat, subalit,,,,sa ganang akin, hindi na natin kailangan ng isa pang bill - marami na akong bill-bil. kidding aside, may mga existing laws or bills na tayo na naglalayong maproteksyunan ang mga kakabaihan. hindi ko na cguro kailangan pang i-site kung ano ang mga iyon dahil mas maraming eksperto sa batas ang mulat na sa katotohanang iyon. nabanggit din ang isa sa mga bill o batas na yon actually sa grand debate - ang magna carta for women.

sa puntong ito, sang ayon ako sa mga anti. maliban lang sa sinasabi nilang ito ay abortive. ayon kay wiki, ang abortion ay ang termination of pregnancy. kung ikaw ay gumagamit ng alin man sa mga contraceptives, hindi ka na magbubuntis. abortion kung ikaw ay nagbuntis at pinatanggal mo.

so sa makatuwid, ang moral na premise kung dapat or hindi dapat isulong ang rh bill ay labas na sa usapan. wala or wala ang rh bill, dikta na ng konsensya at sariling paniniwala mo na kung gagamit ka or hindi ng contraceptives. wala pa man noon ang rh bill, libre na ang condom sa health center sa bago bantay quezon city. katunayan ayaw ng asawa ko gumamit dahilan pra kami ay mag withdrawal method na lang. ang pagpa-plano ng pamilya ay nasa masinsinang pag uusap ng mag asawa.

hindi ako balimbing at lalong hindi totoong hindi ko kayang manindigan bilang isang pilipino na nagta-trabaho sa malayong bansa para mabigyan ang pangangailangan ng mga anak ko. meaning, apektado ako. hindi ko man mababawasan pa ang mga anak ko pero naniniwala ako na noong sinabi ni Papa Jesus na humayo kayo at magpakarami, dalawa pa lang nga sila. galing no. nabanggit din ito sa debate. totoo naman e. pero binigyan din tayo ng Panginoon ng sariling isip at common sense. hindi porket sinabing magpakarami, kahit hindi na mapakain e ok lang. davah?!

so ano ang stand ko?

hindi na natin kailangan ng rh bill.

hindi dahil sa puntong ito ay imoral at hindi sagot sa pagkontrol ng kahirapan. wag ng ipasa ang rh bill dahil binibigyan lang natin ng butas or chance na magkaroon ng bagong paraan ang mga kurakot sa ating bansa na mangurakot pa. baket?dahil sa rh bill, bibigyan ng pondo ang programa. para ano? bumili ng mga condom at iba pang contraceptives na ipamimigay kuno sa mga taong hindi makabili nito. sigurado ba tayong makakarating yon? baka matulad na naman sa mga fertilizers yan. wala pa ang rh bill, may pondo na para dito kaya nga may mga contraceptives na libre sa mga health center noon pa e.

ang kailangan natin ay paganahin or reinforcement ng mga existing laws na may mga layunin na katulad ng sa rh bill. country-wide awareness na dapat na matagal ng tinatrabaho ng mga naka-upo sa gobyerno - mga politiko at empleyado.

sa ganang akin, marami ng nasayang na panahon at efforts sa pagtatalo about rh bill. mga panahon at efforts na dapat inilaan na lamang sa pag educate sa mga tao ng advantage at disadvantages ng pagkakaroon ng malaking pamilya sa bansang katulad ng pilipinas. pera na dapat inilaan na lamang sa mga natapyas na budget sa edukasyon at social service. kung matagal ng enforced ang mga existing laws for women's health, di sana nag slow don na kahit papaano ang ating population growth na eventually will cause slowing down of poverty rate sa pinas.

common sense.

so anong nangyari sa condom na binigay sa aming mag asawa?

ginawang lobo ng asawa ko at pinalaruan sa anak nya na noon ay mag isa pa lang. baket daw hugis etits.

house husband goes to sg

count down timer widget returned.

yes, my husband's passport will be finally renewed - on the day of his flight.

so there will be some challenges as to time so he should make it.

otherwise.

my tigang stage will never end!

guess excitement is an under statement but i am feeling a little depressed thinking about the children.

literally, they will be orphans for a while that my husband will be here to make pasyal at the same time try his luck to find some serious jobs.

the second reason is more of a gamble and there's harm in trying. i do not want to elaborate coz i do not want to spoil the excitement.

count down removed!

2012-08-08T20:28:00.002+08:00

tinangal ko na ang count down.

ang sakit.

hindi na tuloy si house husband.

napunit ang passport ni junakis 3.

dahil sa lumbay at paghihinagpis, nag inom ng 2 araw.

hindi inasikaso ang renewal or kung anong gagawin sa lintek na passport nya.

ayon, sa pag eemote nya lalong natagalan at tuluyan na syang hindi aabot para sa flight nya this aug.

nakakapanghina.

17 rules to live by

2012-08-04T09:48:00.004+08:00

From A Better Way to Live BY: OG MANDINO

1. Count your blessings. Once you realize how valuable you are and how much you have going for you, the smiles will return, the sun will break out, the music will play and you will finally be able to move forward toward the life that God intended for you...with grace, strength, courage and confidence.

2. Today, and every day, deliver more than you are getting paid to do. The victory of success will be

half won when you learn the secret of putting out more than is expected in all that you do. Make yourself so

valuable in your work that eventually you will become indispensable. Exercise your privilege to go the extra

miles, and enjoy all the rewards you receive. You deserve them!

3. Whenever you make a mistake or get knocked down by life, don't look back at it too long. Mistakes are life's way of teaching you. Your capacity for occasional blunders is inseparable from your capacity to reach your goals. No one wins them all, and your failures, when they happen, are just part of your growth. Shake off your blunders. How will you know your limits without an occasional failure? Never quit. Your turn will come.

4. Always reward your long hours of labor and toil in the very best way, surrounded by your family.

Nurture their love carefully, remembering that your children need models, not critics, and your own progress will hasten when you constantly strive to present your best side to your children. And even if you have failed at all else in the eyes of the world, if you have a loving family, you are a success.

5. Build this day on a foundation of pleasant thoughts. Never fret at any imperfections that you fear may impede your progress. Remind yourself, as often as necessary, that you are a creature of God and have the power to achieve any dream by lifting up your thoughts. You can fly when you decide that you

can. Never consider defeat again. Let the vision in your heart be in your life's blueprint. Smile!

6. Let your actions always speak for you, but be forever on guard against the terrible traps of false

pride and conceit that can halt your progress. The next time you are tempted to boast, just place your fist in a full pail of water, and when you remove it, the hole remaining will give you a correct measure of your

importance.

7. Each day is a special gift from God, and while life may not always be fair, you must never allow the pains, hurdles, and handicaps of the moment to poison your attitude and plans for yourself and your future. You can never win when you wear the ugly cloak of self-pity, and the sour sound of whining will certainly frighten away any opportunity for success. Never again. There is a better way.

8. Never again clutter your days or nights with so many menial and unimportant things that you have no time to accept a real challenge when it comes along. This applies to play as well as work. A day merely survived is no cause for celebration. You are not here to fritter away your precious hours when you have the ability to accomplish so much by making a slight change in your routine. No more busywork. No more hiding from success. Leave time, leave space, to grow. Now. Now! Not tomorrow!

9. Live this day as if it will be your last. Remember that you will only find "tomorrow" on the calendars of fools. Forget yesterday's defeats, and ignore the problems of tomorrow. This is it. Doomsday. All you have. Make it the best day of your year. The saddest words you can ever utter are, "If I had my life to live over again..." Take the baton, now. Run with it! This is your day!

10. Beginning today, treat everyone you meet, friend or foe, loved one or stranger, as if they were going to be dead at midnight. Extend to each person, no matter how trivial the contact, all the care and kindness and understanding and love that you can muster, and do it with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again.

11. Laugh at yourself and at life. Not in the spirit of derision or whining self-pity, but as a remedy, a miracle drug, that will ease your pain, cure your depression, and help you to put in perspective that seemingly terrible defeat of the moment. Banish tension and concern and worry with laughter at your predicaments, thus freeing your mind to think clearly toward the solution that is certain to come. Never take yourself too seriously.

12. Never neglect the little things. Never skimp on that extra effort, that additional few minutes, that soft word of praise or thanks, that delivery of the very best that you can do. It does not matter what others think, it is of prime importance, however, what you think about you. You can never do your best, which should always be your trademark, if you are cutting corners and shirking responsibilities. You are special. Act it. Never neglect the little things.

13. Welcome every morning with a smile. Look on the new day as another special gift from your Creator, another golden opportunity to complete what you were unable to finish yesterday. Be a selfstarter. Let your first hour set the theme of success and positive action that is certain to echo through your entire day. Today will never happen again. Don't waste it with a false start or no start at all. You were not born to fail.

14. You will achieve your grand dream, a day at a time, so set goals for each day-not long and difficult projects, but chores that will take you, step by step, toward your rainbow. Write them down, if you must, but limit your list so that you won't have to drag today's undone matters into tomorrow. Remember that you cannot build your pyramid in twenty-four hours. Be patient. Never allow your day to become so cluttered that you neglect your most important goal-to do the best you can, enjoy this day and rest satisfied with what you have accomplished.

15. Never allow anyone to rain on your parade and thus cast a pall of gloom and defeat on the entire day. Remember that no talent, no self-denial, no brains, no character, are required to set up in the faultfinding business. Nothing external can have any power over you unless you permit it. Your time is too precious to be sacrificed in wasted days combating the menial forces of hate, jealousy and envy. Guard your fragile life carefully. Only God can shape a flower, but any foolish child can pull it to pieces.

16. Search for the seed of good in every adversity. Master that principle and you will own a precious shield that will guard you well through all the darkest valleys you must traverse. Stars may be seen from the bottom of a deep well, when they cannot be discerned from the mountaintop. So will you learn things in adversity that you would never have discovered without trouble? There is always a seed of good. Find it and prosper.

17. Realize that true happiness lies within you. Waste no time and effort searching for peace and contentment and joy in the world outside. Remember that there is no happiness in having or in getting, but only in giving. Reach out. Share. Smile. Hug. Happiness is a perfume you cannot pour on others without getting a few drops on yourself.
