The rain!!! Finally after how many odd months of blistering sun Trinidad is blessed with some rain, albeit a small amount but beggars can't be choosers. I wanna go out there and revel in the moister but instead I'm here in work behind a desk looking out longingly at the dark clouds that surround the building. Betcha I'll find some reason to step outside if only for a minute to feel the rain. :P
Update on my diet...ummm...so far so good, however i think i need a solid plan to get this thing kicked off the ground, i can't take shots in the dark, makes no sense at all. I'll be scouring the Internet to find a plan that suits me, nothing too drastic, i don't want to be munching on carrots all day like a crazed rabbit. Something simple that will show its effects over time. So here goes, BTW i'm superproud i was offered chocolate by a co worker yesterday and i *gasp* refused, yes I said No!!!...well i said no thanks :) I'm so on my way
Its Finally Here
Heavy
Grrrrr I'm 170LBS ...gulp i moved from a comfortable 150 to 20lbs heavier ..WTF...i need to go on a diet and get back to my original weight, i don't want to be large and in charge , i prefer small and rules over all. I've decided to make an online journal of my efforts at losing my "lazy fat" ,so today i pledge to reduce the amount of store bought snacks i have ( small steps), I'm also trying to include more fruits on vegetables in my diet, as well as include more movement in my daily activities.
Exercise is important -- I'm going to try and at least accomplish half hour each day and work my way up from that.So here's wishing me good luck in my mission...me hopes me is successful.
I cooked
Now that my PC is kaput, I can honestly say that my hours yesterday were spent doing what i do best...eating....which was followed by some "exercise" --I probably looked like a wild ape jumping around-- but hey anything to get the muscles moving and i did work up a sweat. Then i had my bucket shower, I call it that cause there is never running water, after this refreshing bath, i got the urge to cook....yup inspiration just hits me hard sometimes, so before i knew what was happening i was in the kitchen like a crazed housewife chopping and stirring and sometimes slipping in an occasional drink ...of ...juice..lol... the end result... Tofu in red curry sauce with corn and mushrooms served over a hot bed of rice . I brought some for lunch, i didn't take a pic thou but OMGAGA this vege dish was awesome, i cant wait to have It for lunch lol.......yummy
Elections
Its 2 years early but its here and by the grace of the almighty above, i hope that the present administration is booted out. I've seen too many crimes, too many injustices under this administration and don't get me started to the blatant corruption. I just pray that we as citizens stop voting in creed and color and look at the real issues. You may have guessed I'm for UNC/COP/TOP alliance, its the only way forward. I'm not a big political pundit or activist but i do have some common sense and i intend to use whenever the almighty Patrick decides to release the election date. Lets hope some of his blind followers see the light....
Computer Dead
My computer is dead * wails uncontrollably* * regains composure* The stupid UPS went berserk and probably fried the motherboard....The UPS was leaking, uggghhhh and to think it was supposed to protect the PC not cause its death. The good news however is that there is a great chance that all my files can be recovered, the other bad news ( yes there is more) I wont be able to afford a motherboard till maybe next two months, as per usual money is tight . For the time being I'll get my daily fix here on work, and whenever i can on my brothers PC. So there it is , I'm a wolf without a pc, hmmmm the bright side? I will have loads more time to get stuff done around the house and who knows if I'm really motivated drop in an hour of exercise....I'm way too fat for my height ( I'm a shorty)
Smoke
OMGAGA ( that's my new catch phrase) it seems like the entire East of Trinidad is covered by smoke, its horrible...really I'm so freaking scared its not funny...the sky is dark Grey not with rain clouds but with haze ...the sun in the sky is an eerie dull yellow...did i wake up in some post apocalyptic version of my reality where mankind screwed the earth over so many times that she picked up smoking to deal with the stress? I'm worried about the people with sinus and extra sensitive eyes ...fortunately I'm not one of those, but gosh it will be stress for them. Lets PRAY and HOPE that rains soon come to heal the land.
My PC home is giving trouble *sobs softly* it wont get past the windows loading screen, I'm sad and worried , all my files...ALL...is on that PC if i lose everything i will surely keel over and die for a couple hours. My friend says he will take a look at it later, maybe windows need reinstalling or something, i just pray it can be fixed and fixed soon.
Something is wrong with my bed, it just doesn't feel as comfy as it used to. I flipped, turned and rotated the mattress but nothing seems to work, everything in my rooms just feels dusty and hott, no matter how many times i sweep, mop, and wipe it down it just feels dusty..i guess i can blame the weather for having me a bit on the edge lately (BTW i don't have AC in my room although I'm seriously trying to save for one) so for now I'll have to suck it up and do my rain dance, which just doesn't seem to be working...guess i need to put a lil more waist into it....
Holidays are over
The Easter Holidays are over and tomorrow its back to the grind of work, am i sad.....yup...I'll miss the ability to stay up at night and sleep in the mornings. But i can always look forward to the weekend, and say what its a short week so no need to freak out, Saturday will be here before i know it.
I've noticed that whenever i am on vacation, my brain literally shuts down...weird...before this afternoon i was anything but energetic, now I'm filled with energy and able to complete a list of chores plus pack my bag for work....I'm in work mode now, all geared up and ready to *gulp* drive there in the morning...wish me luck!!
Best Song Ever
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0uzuNt2XImc
That's the link to one of my favest song on the album...its a sad one, but I'm a sucker for sad
Garbage: Beautiful Garbage
Garbage is one of my most favest bands, i thought i had heard every single song by them..but was i ever wrong. While cleaning up my PC's HD i came across their album "Beautiful Garbage" OMG I've fallen in love all over again....every song is super awesome and i cant get enough....My new obsession is this album :) Don't you just love when life throws you a great little morsel of happy ....yummy...
Not in the mood
Uggghhhh the place is just getting hotter as the days go by. I'm in no mood to write, i feel down....my GF has been giving not too subtle hints that I've lost my romantic side, that I've somehow gotten so caught up in the everyday activities of life, that I'm no longer putting the "extra effort" into our relationship.....I think she is right on so many levels...I'm so caught up that i don't even have time for myself...but at the end of the day its like i accomplished nothing, most of my time is spent on the PC...on Facebook, reading comics, watching cartoons....its all i do....i need to get away from this computer and set aside time for realworld activities...i guess in a sense she is right...I'm glad she feels comfortable enough to come up to me and discuss the problem so that we can both find a solution..i guess its time to put my 2 cents in ....
