Today is Day 40 of the Foundation CrossFit "Get Right For The Summer" Challenge. So far, so good. Results may be really subtle but I feel more active, which was part of my goal. I'm excited until I reached that goal though. Working out CrossFit style is a little different (well, duh!). It's pretty high intense (duh!, again) It's like... I feel incomplete when I don't work out. But I guess, it's the routine that you get use to, right?
My fitness blog still needs to be updated tho. lol! My bad.
lol
This weekend, I hope to do these. Maybe. LOL:
1. Tabata This
2. 21 (to compare time last week)
3. Angie (100 - pullups, pushups, situps, squats)
4. As many squats as you can for 10 mins

April Fools
Ok, not really. The moment has past wayyy to far. I've been slacking on this blog thing. Oh well, it's as if anyone cares really. HAHA.
This month has been pretty hectic and busy. Mommy Lorna, Daddy Albert, Biboy & Kokie arrived from the Philippines (4.2-4.5). So, it was pretty much 3-4 days of family outing, driving, family gathering, laughing, shopping, driving... it was pretty exhausting but worth it. As it should be because of the 8 years we haven't seen each other :)
This past friday, I got dragged to go to Sakura-con at the Convention Center and oh me oh my... that was quite interesting. Should've stayed at home since it was a good friday but Janie called me and wanting mt to hang out with her and some other people because she was going through a break up. So, we ended up at Baltic. It was kind of weird not having FASA people there...well, it's not like I'm there when they are there anyways. Opps. It was a pretty "weak" night for me just because I had about 3 drinks (2 of which are midori sour) and I was buzzin' like crazy...even drove to the wrong side of a one way. OPPS, again. Glady, I made it safe driving to chinatown by myself and driving to Richard's to sleep by myself. LOL. This is what happens when I only had 2 sandwiches for the day.
Furthermore, finally ordered my bridesmaid dress @ David's Bridal over at Southcenter for Jiezel's wedding this coming June 20th. Then, from SC... drove back to my house... so I could eat (my tummy was soooo not happy with me) & get ready for Shadee's debut. Rolled hella deep, MILL CREEK. Should've carpooled. Twas fun. Felt intimiated because Pao, Andrew & Tita all had their DSLR while I had my tiny NIKON P5000 :( I want a DSLR, damn! Someday, I will upgrade!
Speaking of photography leveling up, I've been doing different photo shoot sessions and getting back to the groove of taken different angles and perspectives of a shot. I need to make me an agenda of this self education process of learning about photography I need to be doing. The technical and mechanics can wait for now... maybe, yeah?
Also, speaking of wedding... Damn, I need to loss weight for JUNE. I know it won't be a supermodel skinny but I just need to. It's not even trying to be pretty but trying to be healthy. I need to drop my bad habit but it's been hard. After 2 days of cold turkey, I start getting cranky and/or grumpy.
I need motivation. I need support. I need strength. SIGH.

Something just triggered it.
I'm such in a weird mood lately (yet, again). Maybe it's this stupid weather or that I'm allergic to life because this allergies or cold (or whatever it is) has been with me FOR-EV-ER!
1. Dont tell me how to live my life in my 20's. Something tells me that I'm getting looked down on cause I'm out all the time. Even with that silence, I could still tell... dammit. Maybe you're just jealous because I have better friends than you do. Let me be. At least, I'm not pregnant at age 23. Yeah.
2. I'm envious of ppl who are in vacation outside Seattle. I was suppose to go out of town this weekend to Oregon with Mary Ann and couple other people... but there are just things that stopped me (mainly money, SIGH). It's been 9 months since I've been out of Seattle and at least 2 months I've been unemployed... and it's just been dragging me down that a lot of people I know are on vacation to Philippines, California, Vegas, Hawaii, Florida, drgmreoidfjvdfmgdrg. I need to get out.
3. At least I'm starting to observe more on how to be a "girl" or do girly things (e.i make up, hair, clothes). I guess it's about time.
4. I NEED A JOB DAMMMMMITTT. Honestly, being stuck seriously is pain in the ass. I fucking hate it. That's it.
WOW. negativety much, again?! My bads. I've just been on a trip lately. Oh well. As if anyone really reads this anyways. HAHAHA.
On a side note, I am going to try to make routine. It's listed. Let's put in work. GET YOU LIFE TOGETHER, MARY!
Thank you for reading my rant. Bye.

Starting Over. Again.
Every year, I make an effort to "change" something for someone. Call it insecurities. This past year was definitely a lesson learned. Thanks to my friends, who never fails to be there for me... I am once again slapped in the face of what could've helped me out of my funk.
For now...
I'm at a point of self-reconstruction...Yes, Again. A point where I should be focusing on me. What I truly want can wait. God will make time for me. God will give me the right time to love unconditionally and have it return. Someday, I will win at this game. I can't and shouldn't be around people who plays me for a fool. I should be done being hurt. I should've learned from my past, right?
As of now, I have to stand up for myself. FUCK EVERYTHING ELSE. I've done that one too many time. I have gone hell and back (physically & emotionally) for other people... and what has THAT got me? nothing. nowhere I want to be. I can't keep playing the mediator. I can't be the pingpong that gets toss around back and forth because you want me too. I can't be a shadow that can mimik what you do.
I've lost myself one too many times. Given my heart plenty of times. And where does that got me?
With that said, I leave you (or myself) with this quote:
"Self-love is the foundation of our loving practice. Without it our other efforts to love fail. Giving ourselves love we provide our inner being with the opportunity to have the unconditional love we may have always longed to receive from someone else."
