Going Low Carb

Yup, I am trying out the low-carb diet as part of my quest to lose some weight. I have started this week and i am quite happy with myself. Had a few slips here and there but now that I'm feeling this new "regime" I'm quite confident I will be able to maintain this for at least 2 more weeks.

Friend C and I have been discussing weight loss and ideal weights (while having buffet dinner in Brazil Brazil, hahahah!) and one topic was about eating depending on your blood type. I got curious and checked it out in the Net. I have yet to check on my blood type though (I think it's a B). Also, she told me the ideal size of the arm is 9 inches. Mine's 10.5 inches. Hahaha. If that's true then I should rid of that 1.5. Didn't discuss about weight loss pills, but we discussed a bit about Mikaela and losing that 1.5 if diet will not work. Harharhar. Thinking about exercise but I don't know. Maybe I will, maybe I won't. Whatever. Hahahaha.

Anyway, good luck to me. I checked out recipes from Atkins.com and the recipes look really good. Will try them next week.!

Double Black-Eye

That's what hubby said last night. He had double black eye obviously becuase of two things:

NOT GOING HOME TILL OCTOBER
========================

Yup, barely two weeks before his scheduled sign off from his vessel, he was advsied if he can extend his stay until last week of October. He accepted without much hesitation but of course, he was not ok with it. His bags were all packed and all. I guess when I joked him that since there's no advise yet of his reliever, maybe he's not yet coming home. I guess I'm in this business well enough to know that is a possibility. I tried to make jokes out of it but when reality sets in and it's confirmed, it's just so hard to accept. *Sigh* Oh well, that's life. The good side is he'll be spending Christmas here. He has asked for some requests too so I hope their office will accept.

CANNOT CONTACT ME
================
Because of this news, he tried to call me. There was no answer. He tried calling our landline, no answer too. He tried to call for 2 hours but no one's answering. He called my mother-in-law, asked her to help him contact me. he called my Mom and my sister too. Even hsi Captain was alarmed that we cannot be contacted. Everyone got so paranoid. Sister went to my place to check us out. She was thinking of the worst already and was crying on ehr way to our place. When she was finally there in our lobby, she didn't want to go up, so she asked the guard to call us up first. Of course we answered. She was soooo mad. When she came to our palce, she threw a lot of things at me and was very teary-eyed.

Reason for us not being contacted? Eanna played with all our phones. My mobile phone was "dead" and our landline phone was in disarray. Helper's phone was being charged too so I guess it was off as well.

When I finally got to talk to Enrik, he was sooooo high-blood and he was angry. REALLY ANGRY. Refused to talk to me for a long time and kept on saying I should always be accessible and all. It was funny, but not funny for them I guess.


*Sigh*

I'm trying to sound light and all, but beneath, really I'm so sad and disappointed. I will never get used to this kind of arrangement. *Sigh*

The Ghost Chair

There's a ghost in our house! A ghost chair, that is!

Finally, after months of thinking whether to get one or not, I decided to take the plunge and get myself the Louis Ghost Chair. I got one first to "test" it but if I really really love it, then I'd buy a couple more pieces and be our dining chairs. Hope hubby gives me the stamp of approval... or else! hahahaha.

Anyway, Eanna loved the chair that she refused to let me sit on it. She wanted it to be her chair.






I only got to sit on it when she was asleep already. She was pushing me out of it while she was awake!

Still No News

Weeks have passed and there are still no news on our planned business proposal - do we get the bid or not? I am getting a bit anxious already after the initial excitement and sleepless nights. Yes, I was that excited. Too excited that my mind kept on thinking, working, planning, imagining, and dreaming on our possible business. The layout of the place, needed items (do we need a cash register? or should we be more modern and opt for barcode scanners?), what products to sell, etc.

I received a phone call from my agent and I thought that there would be news already, but no. Still, no confirmation. Ack. It's killing me. I want to know if we get the slot, or if I should just check out bags and get myself one (out of depression). Hahahaha.

ONE BIG FIGHT!

A yellow game for the Ateneo - La Salle game. It was a mix of blues, greens, and mostly yellows... as a sign that the game is for the late pres. Cory Aquino.

Thank goodness we won. Lots of heart-stopping moments, disappointing turnovers, bad moves, and the like. At first Ateneo seemed sooo "kalat" but I guess the turning point was the kick by Webb (La Salle). Ateneo picked up and eventually won... after 5 additional minutes. Good game though, La Salle.

Anywayz, here's my bebe cheering on during the game.


One Big Fight!!!








She was shouting too when I was shouting. Hahahaha.

Gothika The Movie

I got to watch Gothika again on AXN, and boy oh boy, Robert Downey Jr. never fails to amaze me and sweep me off my feet. Hahahaha. I have always been his fan no matter what has happened to him (drug rehab and all). He's a great actor, aside from his killer looks. There really is something about him (drug abuse aside).

Anyway, on to the movie. I liked this movie but I can't shake off the fear that gripped me everytime I watch this film. You get to think about the people you thought you knew but then they have these dark secrets you'd be really shocked once knowing. In the end, "justice" was served, in a gruesome and ghostly kind of way.

Gothika however will be capt my quota for suspense thrillers for the year. I prefer to watch light movies or action films now.
