Ms.Earth Philippines

Last wed I headed to subic for work. We had an exhibit in the Subic Trade Convention and except for me driving balikan, the whole trip ain't that bad. (Sztex rocks btw, MNL - SUB only takes 2 hours) Anyway while manning the booth, Ms.Earth contestants suddenly appeared from nowhere and headed straight to me. It's like an axe commercial or even twilight zone! Ok the headed straight to me part was another day dream of mine but I swear the contestants were really there! See the pic up there? That's Ms.Philippines asking me to take a picture with her. :p ok she din't but I din't too. My boss forced me into the pic and of course i had no choice. Professionalism ba kamo?? Honest to goodness they wern't all that... I mean they look good on tv and in pictures, and she sure hella made me look like a freaking hobbit, but trust me my friends - my head didn't turn that much. No offense to the contestants but there were only a handful i found jaw-droppingly hot. Maybe my opinion would've been different if they were there in their two-piece... Yeah... They should've been... :)

It's not Goodbye, It's see you later (T_T)

Hey buddy? Sup pal? How you doing champ? The guy in the peechur right there is no other than "The Jerome Ortiz". He's a very good friend of mine and he's on the way to Canada as I'm making this entry. :'( he says he's coming back but dude that's the way to the future right there... so just in case he can't come back and decides to rough it out there - SALUDOS my friend. It has been a good run. He may not always be available during barkada trips but one thing's for sure, he gives our group its "color" (black). hahaha... he's the smartest and mots outrageous one. The last message i got from here was "popo air force one na me. kkk powe powe mwa mwah hegz." That speaks for itslef. But seriously now, wish you all the best my friend. We will miss you but that's just the way it is. Sorry Canada, you have Jerome now. Sucks for you!! :p
LOVE YOU BROTHER (in a non-mj gay way). KUDOS!

Weekend Warriors

Last weekend, I headed up to Baguio with my warrior friends. It all started as a radical thought. Gaguhan lang ba? Hahaha... "John Baguio tayo!", "GAME!", "OK". It was as simple as that. So we headed to Baguio friday night. Our bus left at 10:15 and Sarte barely made it (so much for Fast and the furious). After 5 hours we got to Baguio and from the moment we stepped out of the bus, I was SMILING. No matter how bad my back and butt hurts, no matter how sleepless i was since my bus buddy was too magulo, it didn't matter. The cold air ironically gave us a warm welcome so to speak and i right there i knew that it was going to be a nice, easy weekend. Warriors all the way! Saturday we woke up at around 10am. Fooled around in the room as usual and then headed out to Minesview Park. (SARTE: ano yung minesview park? ano meron dun?) Bro park na nakaka view ng mines bro. Hahaha.. It was his first time so spare him please. (retard.. joke lang) There we took pictures dressed as igorot, ate inihaw na mais with asin and butter, had a picture with the awesome st.bernard and went around shopping for bling blings. Me and fran got a frog bracelet, john got batman bracelet, joanne stole my anklet, sarte got warrior bag and matsu got another warrior bag! After that we headed to Camp John Hay to play mini golf. John and Joanne's team was totally stumped but they were saved by the rain (sorry john no 7mins in heaven dare) but as WARRIORS would do it, Matsu, Sarte and i stayed and finished the track. Since it was technically a day trip, we decided to end the day in Sessions. Ukay-ukay rocks. We all got something and to add to the things we got, we also ate uber dirty hepa fishballs, suka soaked green mangoes, and slurpee. Init eh. Walang pakialamanan...That night, we decided to close our little warrior trip by just taking it slow. As you can see in the peechur, we had hot chocolate and roasted mallows around the fireplace on a cold and steady Baguio evening. That's just life right there. Times like those just makes me want to pull my ear and hope it stops time. Or better yet, i wish i had the "Click" remote control so I could slow motion and replay the scene everytime. 1 Million mallows with good friends... nothing beats it. (Playboy bunnies can work too...) Joke lang shempre friends first. :-) So there it is. Sunday we woke up early morning, with no money since we got our bus tickets home in advance and there goes our little vacation. Yes... SUPER BITIN. I don't know when we can head back there, or experience a different place but i am hoping I get to go to another warrior adventure with my friends. Cheers to the Baguio weekend!

That was not me....

WTF emo moment... hahaha... for the record the last entry was not me. It was Emostophagus, the spirit of EMOness. I was probably possessed by him or something so once again - not me! Going home yesterday, i was passing by a field when a COW looked at me and said "EMOOO"!!! I thought i was hallucinating or something but the cow really did look at me and called me "EMOOO"... weird.WAHAHAHAHA... Sorry i couldnt help myslef from posting this! So next time anyone EMOs, keep in mind that cows do it first. :-)

Warning! EMO content...

It's been long since my last entry but who gives? I'll write when i feel like writing. It sucks that sometimes things just don't go the way you want them to. I mean some things are forced while others just so happen. For example... my "Thin Routine". The past two weeks have been a total meltdown for my part. Thanks to work related trainings in Heritage Hotel, Beach Trip, and all the damn oily best tasting food in the world, I have officially dug a whole for myself. I guess I'm trapped? STUCK? I want to make a list of all the sinful food I ate but it's going to take forever. I know there's a long way to go and i have sufficient time considering i've already lost some weight but sometimes it gets so frustrating. Screw the "Thin Routine"... I'll just wait and see what happens come Dec 19. I'm not giving up though...

On the other hand, the real reason why im making this entry is to talk about the upcoming Baguio trip. This is actually what's making me EMO... and i HATE... i HATE being EMO. Hate is such a big word for me... literally big (HAHAHAHA demmit i need to focus) Seriously now that word is really not part of my system. I'm usually the jolly "chill" makulit person... and i am pro-LOVE (Interpret it anyway you want :p). Sorry i easily drift away from my thoughts but going back, this Baguio trip makes me EMO because it shows me that the world I am going into is very different from what i am acustomed to. It shows me that every damn thing is changing. The freaking world just moves too fast. (-_-) Yes, this is me, Burns being serious. This happens once in a blue moon so spare me. What I'm trying to say is that it makes me sad knowing that my barkada, is slowly drifting apart. Note that it's not because we started hating each other - its because certain circumstances make it hard - change is inevitable. This may sound gay but i miss mj limin so much. That guy IS the epitome of a perfect friend. Too bad he had to leave for canada. SOON, more of my friends are leaving for Canada. Damn Canada... In relation with the Baguio Trip, it was originally planned as a get together and semi-despidida for but it turns out that not a lot can go. Major bummer. My gf can't go too and i can't blame her. Things just change. Change sucks peas!Therefore thus nevertheless bagkus kunggayon kanya nga, Baguio will be emo time for me. EMO ba kamo? EMO nga kako. Time to get a reality-check and just... recollect? Think about my family, my career, my friends and my love-life. Sorry for the unhappy entry but like what i said in the start - some things just don't go the way we want'em to. I miss everyone. I really do. 'Nuf said. (-_-)

Beach Trippin'

Finally back where we belong! After the longest time we were able to go back to San Juan Batangas. That's Marta, John, Me, Joanne, Frances, and Sarte in the peechur. We were just 6 but nevertheless the whole trip was awesome and worth-while. It would have been fun if more people from our barkada came plus Joson the flaker. Haha joke lang twix! Anyway, I'm making a separate entry for the last weekend's beach trip since i have to share a major story. Overall the beach trip was really so much fun and tiring at the same time but of course! BEACH over FATIGUE any given day! Summary of the trip:

1. John gets skips our lipa exit and gets lost the second time.
2. John was very happy with the trip.... bakit kaya??? (Peace bro ;p)
3. King's Cup??? Shaggedy, HIP BANG, Simon Sez, Bottle
   
4. Beach ba KAMO? Beach nga KAKO! KANYA nga beach eh!! (Inside joke)
5. Sarte's skull and mine got crushed because of soldier boy. (X_X)
6. Frances super sleepy head and Marta hurting head.
   
7. GREAT beach day - weather and water.
   

I'm stopping there since it's gonna take forever. Let me just mention the most unforgettable experience during the trip. My friend RJ SARTE lost his slippers while throwing the frizbee forward and trying to catch again. I mean who the heck loses his slipper in the sand while having em on?!!?! And who plays frizbee alone anyway???!!! He was doing it for 10 seconds then he realizes nawawala na isang slipper niya. He looked for it the whole afternoon and never found it. The only thing he found was the quick way to get sunburn. After realizing that his slipper probably dug a whole and escaped his hobbit feet, nowhere to be seen forever, SARTE decides to sit under the shade of a tree and decides to rub sand all over his body.... thats just weird.. but laugh trip nonetheless. Sarte, that goes to my record book! CHEERS! (Retard...)

With regards to THIN ROUTINE.... WTF is "Thin Routine"???? It was totally abolished that weekend. Liempo and rice galore!!! then chichirya and our own version of sober club after!! Partaay! Speaking of food, it's still abolished up to now and i know i'm gona hate myself for taking a long bad break from it come wager time. Owell moving on... Today was a TOTAL DISASTER for my deit shmiet stint. I stayed in Heritage Hotel the whole day and it was buffet galore... i don't think i want to describe what happens next. Tomorrow is our last of training there and i'm probably going to inlfate myself again with cholesterol and calories.... sucks for me......... but after seeing the beach pics and I'm proud to say i finally see my jaw back and according to Therese some cuts (Yeah yeah she was sarcastic.... so what she still said it!), I feel like i really do have a chance to go back in time. Maybe.... After all it's doesn't look so far away from before..... :-)

Conclusion - ROUND 2 here we come!!!!! By then, I'd be fit as hell. (-_-) Zzzzzz

My stick figure friend...

Confidence... heh... more like a bluff. After all my trash talking last time, i am very humbled to say it was all but a pile of crap. Tuesday went well but a.k.a superwoman treated me Burger King, double cheeseburger with go large REGULAR drink and fries. What a friend! Yesterday was also relatively ok. Hit the gym, and drank a large ZAGU. Demmit. I just had lunch today and I had a rib-eye steak and a vanilla almond Haegen Daz ice cream bar for dessert. (WOW rich... that's coz my dad paid for it). No matter how hard I try, and i believe i can stop eating, certain EVENTS just make me eat. When people treat me, i don't want to be rude so i HAVE to eat. So to everyone out there PLEASE treat me all you want after Dec 19. Heck i'll even treat you!

On a positive note though, it's been around 2 and a half weeks since i started THIN ROUTINE - i haven't been that strict with myself (not at all actually) but after i weighed in yesterday...

----DRUM ROLL PLEASE----

I have lost 3 pounds and I am officially 162lbs as of now. Woohoo! Probably behind schedule but 3 pounds for me is like 1 MELYON! this calls for a celebration!!!! PIZZA NIGHT!!!

So that's what's up with me. I'm feeling a little great about losing 3lbs, feel bad for having a few pitstops with my diet but hey, all's well my friends. I am STILL very confident i'll make 15lbs by Dec 19.

Now this part is for MJ LIMIN. For those who don't know him, he's my kabarkada who headed to Canada because of his surpassing intelliegence with IT related materials... lets leave it at that. Now we have oppositve problems. He can't seem to gain weight. My dear brother, I will switch bodies with you anytime.... Ok I'm just joking you scrawny bastard. MJ = stick figure. He asked me how the EFF do I motivate myself and requested if i could motivate him with my words. So here goes my friend listen up and listen well. You'll be back here by April, that's about 7 months away. In 7 months i believe you can EASILY gain around 10 to 15lbs? Hell I'm losing 15 by Dec so i'm giving you an easier time. I don't think simple words can motivate you to lose weight so here comes the pain.

IF YOU DON'T GET TO GAIN WEIGHT BY APRIL... YOU WILL...

1. Give the barkada a ps3.
   
2. Treat us 5 lunch meals and 5 dinners of our choice.
3. Get beaten up.
4. LAStly, I will upload all the videos I made for you here, in multiply, facebook, and youtube for everyone to see. (X_X)
   

So to you my friend! GODSPEED.. You can negotiate the terms if you want. NOT!!!!!
