The Real Deal

Posted: January 1st, 1970 | No Comments »

Yesterday I saw another doctor and what was great about this guy is he tells things as they are. It was like having a session with a shrink, minus the shrink and the crazy person (I’d like to think I’m not crazy.. yet.) Anyway, he said that there is nothing wrong with me. He told me to go back to my usual routine, that is, going to the gym almost everyday, eat all the food that I like (though

Hiatus

Posted: January 1st, 1970 | No Comments »

I’m taking a short hiatus from blogging here in Yeah, Drew. Don’t worry, I will be back as I am recovering from my back injury that’s causing me dizziness and quite a bit of pain. I am slowly getting better and I hope to be back to my old self by the end of the month. Frustration and sadness are what I feel sometimes but I’m lucky to be surrounded by family and friends who love and support me.

Dizzy

Posted: January 1st, 1970 | No Comments »

My head is spinning!
I’m suffering from a bout of vertigo. It ain’t fun. It keeps me from doing stuff I love to do (such as work out), even stuff I hate to do (like real work). I can’t move around freely. It’s like I’m in a prison.
My meds sort of help in easing the nausea, but they’re making me groggy. Last night I slept for 11 hours!! That’s too much!! Hey Mr. Bert E. Go, give me my

Hong Kong Day 1

Posted: January 1st, 1970 | No Comments »

The day started out like any first day of traveling. Lack of sleep, waiting in long ticket queues, terminal fees here and there, not to mention the flights that suck the energy out of you. That pretty much describes my voyage to Hong Kong today. I’m here in the Marco Polo where I’m booked. My mom is asleep, doubly tired of the day’s events. She’s wearing a funny looking set of pajamas.This

Cebu This Week

I’m so pumped about going to Cebu this Thursday to attend the Cebu Blog Camp, a blogging conference organized by my good friend Winston Almendras.  It would be the first blogging event I’m attending in the Visayas region.   Friends from Manila and Mindanao are flying in for that too.  Should be loads of fun catching up with them.  My cousin Ria will be speaking about blogging communities while my

Blast from the Past

Universal Studios, Circa 1996The pic above was taken during one of the darkest eras of my life. Bushy brows, fake tan-like tan, gap teeth, braces and fake golf outfit. I found this souvenir pic sitting in my mom’s office storage recently. I haven’t seen it in a long time. It should have stayed that way until somebody decided to resurrect it out of its tomb! It’s ok coz I couldn’t help but

Precarious Saturday

Posted: January 1st, 1970 | No Comments »

I can’t quite recall the last time I saw or spoke to my uncle Rene. He is my mother’s first cousin, the son of my grandfather’s sister. He also happened to be my high school English teacher, of which I have fond memories of. Outside of the classroom, conversations between me and my uncle were limited, if not non-existent. At parties he would sit in one corner and not talk to anyone other than

I Dunno…

Posted: January 1st, 1970 | No Comments »

Looks to me that I have to become underweight to fulfill my dream. I am binging on a lot of protein lately to make up for the weight loss but my weight keeps dropping. Today I lessened my cardio to 5 minutes of jogging (about 1km) and spent the rest of the time lifting weights and doing ab exercises. I’m famished! Looking forward to a heavy dinner at a new Japanese restaurant I discovered.
