Longest time


(I hope you are not eating while you read this entry)

Have you had the longest time of your life? My question sounds crazy, I know. I know what crazy means . . . well at least for the last two days maybe.

It was my first time to taste white cream cheese. It was yummy and of course, very creamy. It was so nice with pandesal and hot coffee. It was so good that I ate three pandesals! That was about 10am.

Come 12nn, I still feel full. You see my digestion is not that efficient so when I eat much, I don't easily feel hungry after a number of hours. So I guess, its normal. 3pm I ate bread again. All is normal, as far as my tummy is concern.

I will be attending a meeting at 7pm that night. I was supposed to leave the office at 545pm but I was out by 6pm. Why? Because my tummy started to feel crazy! At maybe about 4pm, I felt a terrible pain. I just can't move but after a few minutes it was gone. I felt relieved but not before I decided to leave the office. I went to the "throne". That helped. Went to the meeting as normal. And before I slept that night, I visited the "throne" again.

The next day, I feel good. Back to usual routine at work. All is normal.

And then yesterday afternoon, my tummy went crazy again. I have to meet a friend at night and we decided to have dinner before listening to the message at church. Once again, I visited the "throne" before I met up with her. Thankfully, all night was good.

At 1am this morning, I was awaken by the crazyness inside me, that is, inside my tummy. I immediately got up from bed and seated on the throne. Oh man, I was there for almost one hour! The pain was really, really terrible. I felt like I was going to faint every time it attacks. I was already thinking of waking up my father to bring me to the hospital. But that was one o'clock in the morning! So there I was, sitting on the "throne", silently suffering that one-hour excruciating pain. That was the longest one-hour I waited in my life! I decided to get back to bed, thankfully I was able to get a good sleep. When I woke up this morning, I felt weak but not really, really weak. I went to work late. I told my boss I was not feeling well that early morning and he understood.

So far, I feel "sane" inside. Haha! I hope that crazyness won't attack anymore. I still don't know if it is because of that cream cheese because I was the only one who suffered that pain. About 10 of us ate that cheese. Anyway, I hope my stomach is on its way to normal. :)

By the way, we have ice cream at the office today. Choco pinipig flavor. Aaahh, too bad I did not eat. Need lots of self-control there, hehe. As my bestfriend said, better safe than sorry. :(

Once in a while

Jason Mraz, a 31-year old American singer-song writer. I like the sound of his music, relaxing and pop is one of my favorite. I'm not an avid fan so I don't really look for the lyrics. Until lately I often hear his songs and since Im a bit in the "boredom" mode, I looked at his profiles. He's an achiever, no doubt about it. I'm not sure if he is a believer but his website says that his songs are about what he sees in life. Got some of the lines from his songs:

Title: I'm Yours
Well you dawned on me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks
Now I'm trying to get back
Before the cool done run out
I'll be giving it my bestest
And nothin's going to stop me but the fine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn to win some or learn some
But I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours

Title: Remedy
When I fall in love I take my time
There's no needto hurry when I'm making up my mind
You can turnoff the sun but I'm still gonna shine
And I'll tell you why
Becausethe remedy is the experience.
It is a dangerousliaison I say the comedy is that its serious.
Which is a strange enough new play on words I say
The tragedy is how you're gonna spend
The rest of your nights with the light on
So shine the light on all of your friends
Because it all amounts tonothing in the end.


And he is cute in this photo. :)

For a Change . . .

Updated the skin of my blog out of boredom. Haha! After my long vacation, I couldn't believe I will still have time to get bored. (yeah, I should count it as blessing...)

Why such a title? I read it again. The only reason I make another entry is because of the changed template but as I read my title again it reminded me of the changes that need to manifest in my life.

Another year is coming and along with that is another change in my age. Why can't the aging stop? Hahaha, is this a question or a plea? Whatever! Anyway, I'm getting older (though not obvious, so much about the humility preaching from church yesterday, haha!). My trip to Australia has somehow affected my view of the future. When before I don't think of leaving my beloved country, but as I look at my age . . . oh my golly, what will happen to me? I'm not yet worrying or panicking, but that time gave me a chance to reflect and to start asking God to lead me where He wants me to be.

For a change, I enjoy watching TV with my Tatay. He likes basketball and boxing and news and all those boring TV programs, hahaha. But yes, I started to like commenting with the things we watch together. I miss my Nanay too, I used to watch telenobela with her. But for now, I'll savor my bonding time with Tatay.

For a change, I started learning from the past - lovelife speaking. Ha? Did I have a lovelife? Not from past relationships though, but learning from the old ways of things when it comes to love department. I'm not a guru on this topic, but yes I was at times got trapped and fell. It is just a cycle, especially when I let God stay at the side. Now I'm learning to trust Him and listen more to Him.

For a change, I hope to become more patient and loving towards my family. I pray to share Jesus to others. I want to involve in caring for the less fortunate. I just feel like I have to exercise my faith and salvation.

There are a lot more to change and I hope to change for the better...

Fully loaded

Current Mood: soooooo tired

An unplanned trip happened last Friday. God gave us the chance to see Sydney!

We were supposed to go to Queensland but the fare is quite expensive so my sister looked for the Sydney trip. We contacted Tita Laura and Joanne, fortunately all was set before our flight.

That four-day trip was really fun. We visited all the popular sites: opera house, Harbor bridge, Darling Harbor, Queen Victoria bldg, Sydney Olympic Park (where Hillsong conference is held), cruise along the city shore, and many more. Joanne is a good tour guide, and libre nya lahat! Yaman di ba? Hehehe.

One of the highlights for me is the "chatterbox" (this is Uncle Bill's term when we have long chats). Joanne and I did a lot of talkings, daldal pala namin. Hahaha. In the train, while walking, when we were shopping, while eating (oopppss, don't talk when your mouth is full!), when we watch tv - or should I say, we talk when we are awake. Hehe.

Pero grabe, ang haba ng lakarin. Walang sinabi ang pag-ikot ng ilang beses sa megamall sa paghahanap ng Sbarro, or ang pagsha-shopping sa buong Divisoria. Nabanat ng husto ang mga binti ko! Keliliit pa naman (haha!). Bilib ako kay Joanne, ibang klase ang batang ito. Di marunong mapagod. Well, di ko alam if after we went back eh plakda na sya. Salamat ulit sis ha, sana maulit muli. Hahaha.

It is really getting hot in here. Today 32C ang temperature. Yung ilang weeks that I was so balot na balot, in just a matter of days, sunog agad! Ibang klase ang init dito. Parang bigla kong na-miss ang lamig. Hehe.

The whole day today, my Tita toured me around Melbourne city. Ang saya kasi nag-tram lang kami. Pero as usual, naglakad na naman kami ng mega haba. But after that, before we went home, she brought me to a newly opened shopping mall near her place. Nabuhay na naman ang spirit ko especially when I saw the big SALE marks. Hahaha. Kaya lang di pa ako sanay sa Aussie dollar kaya konti lang nabili ko. Paano ba naman, I always convert the price to peso, ang mahal pa naman when coverted. Kaya sabi ko kay Tita uwi na kami. Hehehe.

And since we never had a good long rest yet, I took mefenamic acid. Grabe sakit ng katawan ko kaya now I feel sooooo tired...
