Pre-Valentine Date!

I'm not very accustomed to celebrating occasions like this. I literally hate people schmoopy around, just get a room! Anyway, since i can't help but deal with the occasion, i'd rather spend it with my close friends. It just happens that both of us, me and Ryan, share the same perceptive to this kind of occasion. It is not that we are bitter, but we just think of it as the same day we give our heart out to our love ones. There is not much of a difference actually with days i spend with my wife and be totally sweet on that day.

First choice was Rafael's farm but unfortunately it was exclusive for a wedding party. So no choice but to stick our butt near this place. Don't get me wrong but there are a lot of decent dating places here in Tacloban. We just like it far and absolute solitude place to hang out. So, the decision was made and they choose Brod pitts Although, typically not my kinda place but somehow it will do. I gotta say though that we always love their mouth watering, crisp, and very scrumptious Crispy Pata. Other than that, are very appetizing. Here is a lil pic of us:

   

its OVER... WEIGHT!

My New Year Resolution is to loss weight.. Yeah, probably heard that a million times from anyone with a waist line of 40. lols. However, lets cut the facts (or Fats) and get down with it!

It has been 4 years that my life has been stagnant, idle, sedentary and inert like a rock mounted over by a big rock and just sits there allowing nature to do its Job. Well, without a doubt Nature did its job! My exact weight before was 65 kgs and now, a staggering 80 kgs! Not much of a difference of course in kilograms, however, convert that to pounds, from 143 lbs to 176 lbs. Yikes! I could not care less about my weight before or never checked how i weigh to be exact. By the time i realize that my jeans and shirt does not fit anymore, i got totally frustrated. Then it suddenly came to me that maybe its time to loss weight. Trim all the fats and be active with my life. 

Frustrations sometimes helps you get into shape, relatively, by weighing more on the facts rather than the appearance. Really it does! When frustration sets in, you wanted back what was there and that keeps you going no matter how hard it is.

In the meantime, i am working my ass off to burn a lot of fats. It has been a month since i enrolled in a Gym and surprisingly, i lost 10 kgs!  Hm.. not bad for an amateur. Lols. However, i do not want to effusively praise myself over that sheer number of weight loss. Well, because i do not want that to get way over my head coz from the outside it does not show at all. Maybe 3 months from now there will be visible change. Well, it should be, i will be damn pissed if that is not gonna happen! I'll post something if i everything goes well with my weight, hopefully.

Inauspicious start to my Year 2010!

So, if you've been wondering what the hell was going on behind my 4 months hiatus. Well, i should say it was one helluva months! After numerous blunders and unfortunate events, i have to admit that it is inauspicious start for my year. And i have a feeling there are more coming our way.

Even before meeting the end of year 2009, i had encountered several misfortunes. And most of it has something to do financially. However, i was expecting it since December is considered as hibernation for most. lols. And instead of going to small business like our internet cafe, they prefer malling. Just to add, Me and my lil tykes birthdays are in December, so, shelling out is really necessary. So, just to make both ends meet i got a loan and, unfortunately, give up some certain possession.

Now that December was over its time to pay it all up. I'm very confident that i can get through with this easily, however, it slip my mind that January is time for renewal of papers for our I-Cafe. And i realize the amount of payments are just equal with the loan i made. OUCH!

But here comes the worse part! All of those things i stated are nothing compared to losing my BAG! Along with it are my wife's cellphone and mine, i-pod, digi-cam and wallet! The moment i realize my bag was gone, it seemed like my whole world came crashing down around me. (er.. not really, just to add some dramatic effect.. lols) but what really upset me was that my bag was placed right in the middle of 5 people and not a single one of em noticed who took my bag! They never thought someone would dare reach my bag over the counter.

The thief really hits the jackpot! Well, from my count, all of those stuff were worth 30k all in all. By now, i think all of those stuffs are long gone, who knows where they might be right now.

Now that its February and so far so good. We are now trying to recuperate from the financial loss by, somehow, doing every lil thing we can to replace the items without inflicting damage to our family financial cash flow and at the same time spare a lil something for ourselves. In the meantime, we have an ideal place where we could buy cheap replacements with the help of our friends namely Mae and Ryan. Thanks!

Well that is it! Somehow, i'm feeling kinda relieve now that i got it off my chest. I hope this reminds my family to be vigilant with our things. Especially, since we encounter unknown characters everyday we should simply need to watch out with those kinds. Hmpf!

Ryan's Birthday Treat

Aug 17 2009, Ryan's Birthday. Surprisingly, he treated us out for a snack at Cafe Urbana. Again ,as usual, it always turned out like a double date. I'm not really sure of his intention bringing us with them, but i might figure it out later. But anyway thanks Boss for the snack. I sure did pig out.


Carbonara - overly coated with cheese (cant finish the whole plate)
The old rabbit ears prank (come on guys grow up!)

We won't leave the place without a group pic!

Quick Trip to Caluwayan Palm Island

Well, a few mishap here and there but we certainly manage to get there in time. Although the weather was not in the mood, not even a single ray to pierce through the thick clouds. But that's not important, we are in a quick getaway anyway from our busy life.

So far the best beach i ever been to. Nice cozy cottages and very satisfying food! but I recommend you not to go swimming in the beach its jellyfish season, their everywhere! yikes! take a plunge to their infinity pool instead. And not to mention an Absolutely breathtaking view! In the end, i still cant get enough of the place but, unfortunately, i was all worn out and i have to drive back home.

Here are some few pics.

where the hell is this, cant seem to remember where my wife took this?

AHh... the infinity pool i was was talking bout.

You can avail this exclusive for 6 person, i heard that there is a jacuzzi inside..

me with the gang..


After all the fun, my wife took one last shot of caluwayan *sigh*
(no! those are not orbs these are droplets of rain!)

UFC 101 anderson silva vs forrest griffin

Its an Inevitable defeat to Forrest Griffin not to mention his most embarrassing defeat in his career. Forrest Griffin came out short with his fight with Anderson Silva. Judging from the punches he have thrown to Silva, not even a single one landed on him, which was clearly predictable. anyway. On the other hand, Silva was dodging every punch waiting for an opening. Well, Silva landed one making Griffin wobbly at first and eventually, landed another one right to his chin leaving Griffin flat on the canvas. Merely, without breaking a sweat!

The conclusion to this fight ,well,of course, still the undefeated Anderson Silva. Twas a remarkable display of feat for Silva on the other way around, an indelible stain in Griffin's record.

Chill out this sunday out on the Beach

ohhh.. cant wait til sunday! after the hustle and bustle we utterly can chill out this sunday! Its time to wash out all stressful things in my head and rejuvenate. Although, we have not yet decided where (too many beach resorts to choose from around leyte) we must still go on whatever, whenever or wherever the road will take us *crossing my fingers*. Well, i hope our number is enough for the trip. We will certainly have a problem if one more of our group backs out. (got me worried at the moment). Here is the group i speak of: Me, Kat, Ryan, May, Vic and Siote

Looking forward to our escapade.. whoopeee beach here i come!
