Wow, it really has been ages since I've updated...*cleans dust off blog*
Gosh, where do I begin? It has certainly been a roller coaster ride since my last post...lots of really highs as well as lows, but that's life now, isn't it? Even though there are things that made me sad, there are also many MANY moments where I'm so grateful for what I have. Really heart the saying that we take in the good with the bad. Without the bad things, we wouldn't really learn or be thankful for the great things that happen, no?
Can't really think of what to write at the moment...guess this is what happens when we go into 'hiatus' for such a long time. But somehow, sitting here at my grandfather's place and reminiscing about the experiences that I had the past few months just makes me feel like getting off my butt and at least write something. Yes, I'm alive and well...how's that for starters? LOL!
Work has been ok....pressuring sometimes but certainly bearable. A wise friend said to me, "Think about the money you're getting" and somehow it does help. LOL! Yeah, materialistic I know but if I can't get the job that I like, might as well stick with a good-paying job no? *wink*
Let's see...what else? I've lost some weight...YAYY! Classes in Samba, Afro-Brazilian dance, Body Sculpt and Capoeira have paid off *grins* Still long way to go but it's really great to to know that I'm slowly getting there :) Love that I can now fit into clothes that I couldn't before...really scary to think that I've let myself get so unhealthy that I couldn't fit into the biggest sized clothes before. Am deeply thankful to my instructor, Lilica for always pushing and encouraging us to go the extra few reps (even though we're already screaming and cursing her silently in our heads while enduring the exercises!) every. Single. Time. I might be 'hating' the pain at that particular moment, but I know it's a good kind of pain :)
Ah ok...enough of the gushing and what not. Here's to more posts in the future. I will need to be more disciplined and spend at least some time to blog more. I kind of miss this actually...:)
