muni-muni

tinamaan ako ng katamaran ngayong araw. magka-climb dapat ako, pero pinili kong bumalandra sa sofa ng nanay ko para humabol sa "uninterrupted sleep" na tatlong gabi ko ng ninanamnam. 

gabi-gabi ko kasing inaasam na makakuha ng 10 oras na tulog...at sa nakaraang dalawang linggo -- kung saan bumisita ako sa mga lungsod ng cagayan de oro, butuan, at general santos -- panay 5 oras na tulog lang ang nakukuha ko. 

kaya siguro ako hinila ng sofa ngayong araw. sabi ng katawan ko, "ayan, bawiin mo na ang sampung oras na pinapangarap mo!"

pero tila hindi ko pa rin nakamit ang pangarap na ito, dahil kahit gusto ng katawan kong humiga, ang utak ko naman ay tuluyang nagiisip, nagtitimbang, nagmumuni-muni. 

HAY.

ngunit sa kabila ng pagkabigo, kung tutuusin, gumaan din ang loob ko sa lahat ng planong nabuo habang ako'y nakahiga at nakatitig sa kisame. kasi, sa di-karaniwang pagkakataon, pinabayaan ko din ang sarili ko na managinip ng gising. mula sa mga personal na pangarap, hanggang sa mga pangarap ko para sa aking pamilya. kahit pambihira, hinayaan ko ang utak ko na lumipad.

sabi nga nila, DREAM BIG. kaya ayun, nanaginip ako. ng marami. ngayon, ang problema na lang ay kung papaano sila gagawing totoo. buti na lang, mahilig ako sa goal-setting. 

uumpisahan ko sa training regimen ngayong linggo.....and all the rest will follow. ;-)

What we do on Sundays....but would LOVE to do every day!!!

Great job Miel :-)

exercise weekend!

Saturday run!

....though i gave up at 7k, i was happy to have had the discipline to drag my butt off the bed and hit the pavement. thanks to cali and alex for bearing with my slow pace. it was great to be at the fort again, see new roads and sights, and sweat like hell!!! (special mention to how i turned beet red from the heat and practically collapsed from what felt like lack of oxygen in my brain).

Sunday climb!

....slash sunbathing, slash filmmaking! it was miel's first attempt to shoot a climbing a video, with alex (espina) as the "talent". naks. got entertained with dennis' youngest, rain, who verbally abused me all the way ("I SAID, MOVE BACKWORDS, YOU IDIOT!!!!") buti na lang nakatapos ako ng 2 boulder problems at nakakuha ng tan to make up for it. ;-)

Monday vote!

......yes, i exercised my right to vote! 2.75 hours in line, but i just can't get myself to complain because i know how much worse the other polling precincts are. other than the stinky creek, over-talkative fellow voter, and a slightly strained lower back (maybe there's something wrong with my posture), i survived the line and even finished the book i was reading. cheers to a morning of accomplishments!

now it's time for those smartmatic machines to do THEIR work!!!!!

who are you voting for this may 10?

in all honesty, i am not fully decided on my president and vice president. 

this long but necessary post about why gibo (not gordon, and definitely not noynoy or villar) is her president* provided great insights.

do you have other similar links? other analysis about who to vote for, and why? lalo na sa senado, ang daming pagpipilian, pero sino ba ang mga okay talaga?!?! 

IKAW, SINO IBOBOTO MO AT BAKIT?

anlapit naaaaaa........god, do help all of us choose wisely!
