Promise is the capacity for letting people down.
-Cyril Connolly

man, i've had to catch up on work so much that i have no time to update..hehe not that i update consistently..but still..now i've resorted to blogging at home..which is funny..i feel like i have more free time on my hands now that i don't need to study for any tests (hopefully i won't have to anymore once the test results come in next month)and since i've gone back to working out with my co-workers during lunch breaks and also over the weekends..when i get home it's la-la time for me..well at least for an hour..at 7 i finally get to catch up with my soap, days..haha..

anyways..today was funny..i was working at the "dungeon" (a.k.a, the center where all the traffic cameras are at and where we are 4 floors underground in city hall) all day today..and all of the sudden i'm looking at one of the cameras in downtown and it's shaking like crazy..i feel a little movement around me, but i just thought it was someone upstairs moving stuff w/ those big trash bins..haha then i was like..hey guys, i think we're having an earthquake!..freaking crazy how we couldn't really tell..what's scary is that being underground is the worst place to be during the earthquake..i think we've got like 2 weeks supplies of food and water down there for us and sledgehammers and axes and stuff if we need to dig ourselves out..ahhhhh scary thought which i hope NEVER becomes a reality!..but yah..can't believe it was an earthquake..ahah i called lou to see if he felt it and if he was okay..he was like "yah, it was fun"..crazy guy=P

you know what i can't stand? how nitpicky filipino families can get when it comes to weight..i know i gained the "happy" weight while i've been with lou..haha..but man..i remember when i went to p.i. like 2 years ago..that's all i ever heard..each auntie/uncle that i hadn't seen in over 10 years were like.."what happened to you??!! you're fat now!"..ha, well nice to see you too!=)..so i come back to cali..exercising and trying not eat so junkily like before..yah know..oatmeal for breakfast=P, figuring i need to get back in shape..now..i'm at a point where i'm content w/ everything..then i start hearing.."you're getting too skinny...or..oh you look better now, stay like that!"..haha then i get back from costa rica..one of lou's auntie's sees me.."belle, you're getting taba now!"...my response?..yah i know, hehe i ate so much over there...golly peoples..make up your mind!..hahahhahaha

funny how they can be so blunt about it when there are worse things that someone can worry about you know?..but what can you do..i just find it ironic how people can find faults in others when they're not so perfect either...sorry..i just seem to hear a lot of this and it's to a point where i need to vent..so i'm alright..my sisters and lou always tell me to just brush it off..and i do..but yah know when you hear it so often..eventually it gets to you..so yah..that last incident was my tick point=P..

anyways..dude, i'm sooooo overdue for a nice swedish massage..me & joe thought we could get cheap ones at costa rica..yah right..they are soooo tourist friendly and charge the same price=P...i feel a glenivy retreat soon..any takers? at least one more besides me..can't enjoy the mud bath if i'm all by myself..laughing at how funny me and all the other mud bathers look isn't funny if i'm by myself=P
