I said god damn...god damn!!! -- Mia Wallace after sniffing coke
on running, 2008, meeting high school friends and the list goes on…
December 11, 2008i am so glad that i was introduced to running this year if it weren’t for my friend bulak i would never really know how to “jog properly”. i am so happy…? i think happy is an understatement… basta mixed emotions - i cant believe that i was able to finish my first ever 4k run this morning… when i quit the “corporate” world last year - it has been my routine to bring my daughter to school. and instead of chitchatting for three gruesome hours i thought of things on how to maximize my time. initially, i would go to SC - go online for about an hour then go to the chucrch. but then, i finally gave up because i don’t know what to do anymore - meaning which website to visit, whose blog to read, whose photo to comment to and what not…
and so, jen introduced me to running. i was elated when i finally learned the proper way of running. dati kasi ang lakas lakas ng bagsak ng paa ko sa tinatakbuhan ko. para akong nagmamarathon palagi na hindi ko maintindihan, pero it’ll last for mga 30 seconds lang. and so everything evolved. it started sa pa-isa isang round sa acad oval (NO STOPPING) at kanina nga, na-break ko na ang record ko! natutuwa kang ako… i haven’t been myself in 4 years… i have been complaining for 4 years…
i have been stuck in so many other things… trabaho, pag-ibig, college life, financial freedom at kung ano pa. pero kanina parang kanina - all of my apprehensions about life were washed away. it made me feel that 2008 is indeed a fruitful year. the first quarter was tough. really tough. i made a big switch from getting an amount that would certainly put food on the table for a family of 4 to nothing… as in wala.
look. i had to put this blog into my “to be posted” list. apparently, when i decided to finish this entry parang wala ng coherence yung thoughts ko. anyway. Salamat po Lord.
