Goodbye summer!
With everything going on in my life right now, I just feel that it’s appropriate for my sanity to post something cheerful. So as tribute to this year’s hectic summer, here are pictures of me and my friends at a beach somewhere in Southern Cebu. And yes, I’m the chunky monkey in the blue swimsuit.
I used to be normal before I met these losers, lol.
Drowning all my sorrows in this song. Currently belting out this line as much as my little ol’ lungs could reach, hope the neighbors won’t mind :))
Someday I’ll wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind meeeee
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
High above the chimney tops that’s where you’ll find meeee

If you’ve lost one pound. If you’ve lost a hundred pounds. If you’ve kicked your junk-food habit. If you’ve eaten a vegetable today. If you walked a block today. If you ran a mile. If you put down a glass of Coke. If you drank five glasses of water. If you’ve cut 1000 calories or if you’ve cut 100, take a second to marvel at how far you’ve come and how far you’re able to go.
Love this. One step at a time…

LL Cool J’s Platinum diet and lifestyle (via fitnesstreats)
Time spent wishing something was easier is time wasted. The things worth going after will be at the end of very difficult roads. That’s the way life works. Don’t sit around and wish things were easier. Get better. People have a tendency to want to make the obstacle smaller rather than make themselves bigger. But you are the only part of that equation that you control.
After all these years, I can’t deny the fact that it’s still there. Raw as ever.
