Mianhe. Sorry in Korean. I haven't posted for 3 years. How is this even possible? It's a travesty. My last post was settling in San Fernando. I will celebrate 3 years at LGC in March 1. Time flew by. It's still amazing. I'm still very much in love with this city, with this town, province. I've been around Pampanga, most of Bataan and now settings my sights in Bulacan. Central Luzon invasion. Trafficless, if there's even such a word suits me. I have perfect control of my time without worrying about meaningless stuff. I can focus on more time bugging Rye and the dogs (we have two now, Sash has tolerated the presence of Poopie or Margaux or Dewormie, such a monster pup). I can spend time on a hammock which totally fits my prayer time, stargazing moments at night. It's a great stress reliever. Over the moon grateful.
2017 was fun, I don't remember it now but yeah. 2018 was a dream I didn't want to wake up, I'm still in the pinch me now stage. I'm still stuck in that year I think. The best surprise was of course Atlantis basic musical theater workshop where one of the most difficult, most elated experiences I've had in my lifetime occurred by playing Fruma Sarah from Fiddler on the Roof and Fraulein from Spring Awakening and Pennywise from Urinetown. Dad, Ayla and Ate's separate arrivals.Cebu and Iloilo/Roxas trips with much bonding time. Turning 40 and having such a fun birthday celeb spearheaded by Thelma at Novotel, doing CNBlue poses. So I'm in a slow mo for 2019. I have to seriously plan this year haha.
This quiet season after much fanfare is healthy for me. I have to go down from the clouds and ponder what's next. It's my Mama's 20th death anniversary this year and I felt the need to write my memory book of her together with family. Help me Lord fulfill this plan.
Rye has been into weird genetic engineering topics thanks to TedX talks. He's a fun kid to be around. My travel buddy during our recent Malolos heritage tour, who held the umbrella when the sun was hot and patiently waited for me take photos of my NHI markers. He looks a teenager now. Sob, my baby...
The world has gone completely crazy with Trump and Duterte alternately providing news cringe that I don't event watch the news at all save for the feed scrolls.
I seriously needed to save for Korea. Yong Hwa will leave the military by November this year so surely next year will be a solo con. So Ju Sib is coming this March, my newfound Oppa from Oh My Venus.
I had an FB #konmari method - the act of tidying up what doesn't spark joy. Throw it out. Delete. For someone who has collected so much stuff before, this is such a new me. I thew out my clothes last December so only those that I still use and can fit in the drawer remained while I don't collect much now except for notebooks. Yey!
I developed my morning routine as well, Jessica Smith walking videos and some other Zumba, Kpop dance videos to get my muscles work out everyday for 20 minutes. I'm desperately trying to sleep before 11pm so I need to control my Kdrama addiction. Breakfast of oatmeal or cereals and fruits. Unbelievable right. I maintained my ideal weight I think. Thank You Lord.
The areas that I need to truly improve are internal issues and how not to react negatively and how to hold my tongue. Going to Mass helps me be good. I hope.
My friends are still the same - Eee and Mano were the recent additions but that's it. No more crap.
