2-second descent

I've discovered yet another hidden talent yesterday! It all happened in a flash. I was in the bathroom taking a shower when i remembered not closing the door upstairs. In our house, children and adults-a-like would tend to pass through our maze-like passages whether to just pass through or to get something from our supply. Anyway, I just don't want to be surprised when after a cold bath and walking naked in our house, somebody would come in and see my rather unpleasant figure.

After locking the door, I walked back to the stairs going to the bathroom. As I stepped on the 2nd step from the top, my feet slipped from my slippers. There were no time to think, my body just reacted and tried to stop my sudden plunge with whatever I could hold on to. At last my throbbing bottom found the last step. I was surprised that I'm still holding on to my towel which solely wrap my body. I checked myself for any injury acquired, and thank God there were none..

I winced as I got up, every part of my body was aching. As I resumed my bathing, I found out that 3/4 of my left lower arm was covered with a reddish long bruise with scrape, a scrape on my right wrist, fist sized bruise on my right butt cheek, and edematous toes.

That was the first time I slipped from our stairs... It was quite an experience, I must admit. The usual 4-second descent on our 8-step-stairs took only 2 seconds for me. quite a talent, eh? ^__^ I'm not searching for my hidden talent though... ^__^

My mom's bday

Yesterday was my mom's birthday... Happy Birthday Mommy! I believe she had a blast on her 49th bday. On the eve of her bday, me, mom, her friends tita M, and P went to Greenbelt 3 and had dinner. Initially, I planned to have dinner at the Krocodile Grille since I was the one appointed to choose and organize it. But when we got there at 8pm we're on the 6th of the waiting list. So since our tummy's were complaining I had to come up with the next plan.

It's been a long while since I went to Greenbelt and checked on the new restos and bar. As we went down the escalator, I noticed that the Tavern bar where we watched MYMP with my friends including boyokoy, 3 years ago, was already closed and in its place a new restobar was opened. It's now called Tropezz Restaurant Bar. I decided to try that one, and since they all agreed, it was settled then. There was a Live Band which was a plus for me, the interior is good, the food is good (I like the blue marlin and their calamares), and they have a VIP room enclosed by a sliding glass door, where it' more lighted, and more quiet compared to the usual non-smoking area-- well suited for my 40ish mom and friends.

Yesterday though, mom treated me and my female younger cousins to a movie. We watched Kung Fu Panda while she was shopping. The movie was so hilarious that I cried for laughing out so much. Afterwards, we just had a small party for them. "Them" because my mom's eldest sibling was also celebrating his bday.

My mom, is not just an ordinary mom. She raised me and my brother well single-handedly. She's our sweetest alarm clock, my closest friend, my 1st teacher, our clown, our dancer, my mother. More than anything else, I want her happiness. Wherever and whoever it will be... I just want her to be happy.

tired

Been a while Echt...

I wasn't really in the mood to divulge what's on my feeble mind. Lack of interest, and purpose maybe. But Ham enliven my yielding spirit. So here I am, pouring my heart out, for those who would want to "hear" my story.

Since graduation from BSN last April, up until now, my breathing is abated... by worries. I reviewed the whole April and May for the Local board exam last June 1 and 2, but I don't think it was enough. A lot have said that it was easy... but not for me. I can only hope now for miracles... I pray that It's God's Will that I'll pass it. Haay.. I lift it all up to Him na lng.

Sometimes I'm thinking that I'm having future shock, doing things immediately and in fast pace. But then again I'm already 24, and at this age, I really should be doing double time in ensuring that my future will be alright.

But I'm tired now.
I'm tired of worrying.
I'm tired of being a pessimist.

Thy Will be done.
