GYM HOPPING

26 Septemeber 2007
WEDNESDAY

After my church service, i took a nap. Then my mom woke me up beacause my uncle called to invite me to gym hop.

Kaya naman, we checked seven gyms all in all. Astig, iba-ibang instructors, iba-ibang lugar. There was even one wherein there was an indoor bball place and badminton court. Ayos!
But i'm eyeing this gym in philam with state-of-the-art gym equipment and an all-around insturctor. At a reasonable price (1000 pesos less than fitness first?, i'm currently convincing my mom to enroll me in. May boxing gym pa sa taas. hehehehe.

well, wish me luck.
sana may gym na uli ako by friday.


24-25 Septemeber
TUESDAY


since sumama ako sa Retreat, I wasn't able to make the handouts for a report on tuesday. I had no choice but to stay up until 3 am to finish the handouts

For the record, this was the hardest handout i've ever designed and made all by my self hehehehe.

EDUC nga naman.

21-23 Septemeber
FRIDAY-SUNDAY


KORO STIGMATINO Retreat
To start with, syempre late na naman ang mga tao. hehehehe. I was really hoping that since this was somewhat an outing, all will come early. I guess being late is really a KORO sickness hhhehe.

We left at around 10 pm, picked up ate joyce and ate grace at their places, travelled thorugh the night then at midnight stopped over a bulaluhan place. All this while i was sneezing my nose off my face. At Syempre, dahil malamig ang weather, hirap na naman ako mag-adjust sa temp (too much for my seasonal, and allergic rhinitis). Then, we continued on through a winding-foggy-mountain road that kept everybody awake. Kahit na may foglights, wala pa rin kami makita kaya nga astig si kuya derick kasi, for some reason, it was as if he could see the road as is--ala nightvision.


VILLA BRUNORA: Bagyo... kaya di rin kami naka-swim. Ay! retreat nga pala pinunta namin doon. Kahit na hindi nakapunta sa FR. Mervin, ayos pa rin kasi may dumalo namang 2 madre at nakapag-share naman ang mag tao. Dami ko natutunan tunkgol sa mga KORO memebers, kaya mas nakilala ko sila. Grabe. Adik mga tao! heheheh Ang saya-saya nila. Lanu na sila ate Grace, ate Joyce at ate Steph. Hindi nga halatang mas madami ang mga lalaki sa babae na sumama e. hhehehhe

Basta, madaming napag-kwentuhan. Ang daming nagawa. Nagtakutan, nagtawanan, nag-inuman (lasang robitusin yung 40%- alcohol vodka and sprite, worse: lasang redwine with tempra yung vodka and coke) nagdasal, nagkwentuhan, nagkantahan, nag-picturan nagkainan, naghabulan, at nag-volleyball pa. Malamang di ako nakagawa assignment kahit na nagdala ako. Asa naman!




Masaya talaga. At noong pauwi na kami, akalain mo na ang 3-hour travel from batangas to LP ay ngakaroon ng 4 na stop0over. ADIK! heheehhe. Pero ayos pa rin. Ang saya ng biyahe.

Natapos ang retreat sa isang misa sa Parish. Nagsimba kami sabay-sabay.
oo nga pala, nakilala ko pa ang pamangkin ni ate Grace na si Edrick- ang cute na 4-year old na napagkwantuhan namin sa biyahe heheehe. Excited na akong pumasa sa EDUC at magturo sa mga bata. Madali kasing makita si GOD sa kanila :->
hehehehehe

21 SEPTEMBER
FRIDAY

i'm poor with changes

After just 5 months of weight training, the local gym where i go to three times a week has been shutdown--primarily because of shifts in management. I actually never thought i'd feel sad about the sudden change.

Situated at the top floor of a building in Manuela, the gym's windows give you a great view of the Las Pinas skyline (no wonder that in every in-between sets, we often hang out by the windows). And with good ventialtion, enough lighting and nice gym-goers and trainers, the gym was really a home to me, home to my release of all my aggressions, frustrations and what not. Basta astig. Every gym day, i get so excited.

Letting go of a home is what i think made things worse. This actually is a perk of a local gym, the familiarity of the people--their stories, experiences, spotting, grunts and moans are oh-so-familiar. All these makes you at home.

Kaya dahil last day ko ngayon, nalungkot ako.

hay...
I'm off to another gym, i guess.
