New Project

I've been pretty darn bad in updating this blog that I forgot to blog about my recent addiction: Going to the gym.
I finally decided to grab this great company benefit that would allow us to enroll in Fitness First without using a credit card. Sayang naman kasi, it's at a discounted rate, the monthly fee is deducted sa pay in 2 payments and Lifestyle Passport pa ang membership so I can workout in any Fitness First gym (except for FF Platinum and FF Plus). I am thoroughly enjoying my time at the gym. I could stay there for like 2 to 3 hours just working out. I even go before work. The best thing about it is I get to shed these unwanted pounds. healthy living baga. hehe! So how is it so far? Well, a friend told me it's okay to lose like a pound a week. I started going June 1st and look what I've achieved so far (and to think I missed a week of going to the gym because of my period ):

According to iVillage my target weight is 150lbs and a BMI of 18.6 to 24.9. My current BMI is at 26.94 - still at the overweight stage but at least I am now off the Obese stage hahaha! I know I have a long way to go, but I guess I am on track.
Wish me luck on this new project. I'll keep you posted. Maybe even post a before and after pic hehe!

Locked Out

It's past 3 in the morning. I am supposed to be in dreamland now so why am I still up?

Because I freakin' locked myself out of my own laptop. How stupid can I be right? I blame it on the ever frequent changes of NT login passwords in the office. Plus, different passwords for different systems. I have a different password for Avaya CMS, a different password for IEX and another one for Witness Systems. Dang! I think I better write these logins and passwords down and keep them at a safe place.

Good thing the husband has his own laptop and I truly thank God for Google!

So there, I just wanted to vent out about my stupidity. I am now off to sleep.

"ME" Time

If Friday was me and the husband's time. Then Saturday night is all about "ME" time. It feels great having this time alone in my room. I missed having my own space.

The husband is out tonight with friends. And I am enjoying every bit of this alone time. It made me realize a lot of things. One of which is about striking a balance in my life. I've been too preoccupied with work. I need to slow down a bit. I have a mountain of personal tasks I want to accomplish and I need to go back to making a to do list of my everyday tasks. I know I would feel more accomplished and fulfilled if I do that.

So I am signing off for tonight and get back to enjoying my "me" time.

Still the Best of Friends

Today I took a leave from the madness called W.O.R.K. It's been a while since I had the chance to just chill and talk with the husband. You know, as in really talk, not just say our hi's and hello's during the day or send our usual text messages. How long has it been? Days? Weeks? I really don't know. But today was a good day. We reconnected.

It's amazing how we get through each day just talking about casual stuff and sometimes I feel like we have grown apart in some ways. But when we get the chance to reconnect, it dawns on me...we are still the best of friends...

Catching Fire!

Oooh! Another movie for me to watch out for! Catching Fire will come to theaters November 22, 2013!  Here's a sneak peek of the releas...
