Magnet Ka Ba?

...Kahit anong iwas ko ng tingin sayo, 

naaattract ang mga mata ko sayo.

I forgot when it started but I'd been gaga over ref magnets. They're just so cute to look at on our refrigerator door. 

Thanks to my friends, colleagues, and relatives who traveled to different places and brought me magnets as souvenirs of their trips - mostly because I insisted them to get me one.

I'm a Cry Baby

One truth about me is that I'm a Cry Baby. I cry for many reasons - be it overwhelming happiness or frustrations.

Quivering Cheeks, Locked Jaws, Frowning lips, and Watery Eyes --- Signs that spell C-R-Y-I-N-G.

When I start crying, I just don't know when to stop. But somehow crying becomes my means of releasing tension (happy or sad tension...whatever).

What makes me cry? To name a few:

Heavy drama on TV or in Movies

Achievements

Bruises/Blisters

Recognition of Good Deed

Comfort from Friends

Arguments

Birthdays

Disappointments

Heavy Traffic and I'm in a rush

Surprises

Weddings

Ingrown

Here's a recent souvenir of me crying over an ingrown on my right little toe. It was super painful to remove such. And I was on mixed emotions - I laughed, then I cried over and over. Jiemar took this candid shot while helping me out on my agony.

So this is how I look when I'm in extreme pain.

What a face!

Run the World

Okay. So we had our dance class earlier at Body Basics Gym with Dov Sandalo. He taught us new dance steps to the tune of "Run the World" by Beyonce. I had to admit it was one of those difficult routines and I just couldn't perfect the dance steps until the very end. Whew.

Thanks to my friend Lizette for these photos. First time that I got to appreciate blurry photos. Ain't they nice (my camera just couldn't capture movements perfectly)? plus the mistakes didn't look obvious on these photos.

Run the World!

Ending: Out of Breath. 

Here's a preview starring our master choreographer:

That fast, huh? And I struggled to learn those steps.

More practice for me.

Go lang ng go! 

This is gonna be another stiff neck moments for a few days.

Coconut Bay Resort

Jiemar's family was invited to a birthday party at Coconut Bay Resort. And I tagged along. It had been a long time since I sat foot on this place.

Coconut Bay Resort is located in Baloy, Cagayan de Oro City. It's 15 to 20 minutes ride from the city proper. It has open-air function halls for all occasions, cottages and hotel rooms at an affordable price, a swimming pool, a restaurant, and big aquariums.
