A New Day Has Come


Makikisingit muna ... mga Greetings!
First of all to my brother Aris ... Happy Birthday! Maayo ka pa giahtagan ug 1T ni tatay.
Secondly to my friend Mayang who is currently in Munichen(Munich),Germany together with the HIMIG singers! For everybody's information, the HIMIG singers won first place in their first choral competition there in Germany! Congratulations sa kanila! They'll be going to other European countries after that to compete in other choral festivals. Let's just pray that they will sweep all the first prizes in all choral festivals they'll be competing and bring our country on the map...
Thridly to Kevin whose blog currently ranks #8 in Xanga's top 50 blogs... Hope maka-reach ka ug number 1.

Okay to the main event...

Yesterday I made a pact with a friend. We promised to change our "evil" ways and change for the better.

Well, what happened to me since I moved into our new room has been quite a drastic change. First of all, I became sick again... maybe because I was what you call this? "Nasubawan?", sorry for not knowing the English term... - well I could accurately describe what I have dealt with. My rhinitis was constant for almost a week. Most of the time, my nasal passageway was clogged with mucus and my nasal polyps are very much inflammed. During nights, coughing develops and I could hardly get enough sleep. But I thank now, all of these are gone now... and the house problems too... I repeatedly reminded our landlady to fix our roof and replace the burned out electrical outlet. The electrical outlet was burned due to a short circuit since water from the roof seeped into it... Well, those days came - a repairman and an electricial came and thank God that I don't have to re-arrange our sleeping area whenever rain comes...
I recently signed up in a local gym near our house ... well to lose weight. I was gaining a lot of weight nowadays due to the fact that I have been eating pizzas, pasta, ice cream and so on... I also take a weight loss supplement to speed it up. As to date I lost 6 lbs already, and that was quite a mere 2 weeks only of regular exercise - and I did check my diet too. I ate a lot of high protein foods like fish (tuna, salmon, bangus & ble marlin) and eggs... and they taste quite bland now ...nakakasawa. Maybe I should try to find another high protein food source.

Well and what about the first sentence in the first paragraph? What was that suppose to mean? Well, it's too personal to share but I tell you it is a good thing to start like having a new life again. I have never felt more peaceful in my life even though I don't have a job and I get to argue with people nowadays. Yesterday, I almost ended up in a heated conversation with an American (pirting English-English gyud!) until my friend pulled me out of the scene. Well, later on in the process I just found out that I have been frustrated with my life, why things seem to be unfair and why people take advantage of you (although they do it unconsciously) and maybe those are the reasons why I have been very moody, easy to flare up lately... Hmmm, I guess all is solved up and what remained in me is a hope to live and do my purpose of living... I have to find it out yet.
