things to be happy about

baka kasi masabihan nanaman akong life full of hatred, here are some of the things that make me happy and would make me look forward to waking up to a new day"

1. my dates with ate gail.

now that she's taking her time off from law school, she was sweet enough to pay me a visit last thursday. we had merienda at red ribbon, then shopped with her at national bookstore. i'm happy to hear that she's doing so well in law school and in her love life. on friday, we'll be watching cabaret together! yehey! :D sadly though, it's gonna be her birthday exactly a week from now, and i still am having a hard time thinking about what to give her...

2. I'm finally losing weight and controlling my appetite.

until yesterday, i've limited my intake of carbohydrates. i have only taken brown rice and a pack of magic flakes french onion chive alternately. i have been skipping breakfast and dinner. no junk food. product? 5 pounds less in a week-and-a-half's time.

3. my friend and i are making plans for misa de gallo.

this year, i vow to complete the nine nights. must. should. obliged. required.

4. my newly acquired cds--best of sergio mendes, regine velasquez's cover, and freestyle's once in a lifetime

listen to track one of freestyle's album--sa ayaw mo at sa gusto.

regine's version of di bale na lang is a duet with andrew e. the intro sounds like a barbie-ken conversation as my friend puts it.

i love her version of araw-gabi and the ogie original (track 1).
