the lowdown...
again, i sucked in the gym today.. sigh.
though i wanted to finish this week with a bang, things had just been downhill lately.. not only that, i also have to nurse my right shoulder as the pain is just around the corner if you catch my drift and, if i screw up my form one bit, it's gonna be sayonara baby!
what's more, i've been doing things differently the last few weeks or so.. like, i've been going to the gym a lot later so i needed to do a lot of hurrying up cos by then the place' startin' to get crowded and it'll be harder to keep things in track (i.e. equipments, machines, bars and plates). good thing i'm using the big plates and dumbbells.. usually, just a select few use 'em and they don't usually dare touch it when they figured it's me, "The One" using it.. hehe
i'm excited and yet apprehensive about my scheduled break as my attitude in the gym lately had been disturbing.. i haven't been like this before y'know, i always, always look at the way i do my thing there as half-full.. not half ass!
i don't know.. i'll figure something out when the time comes..

meanwhile, the island hopping we had was a "success." judging from the number of people who confirmed and pretty much showed up, it was right on the money.. have to give credit to Tina and Emily, my co-employees who organized everything.. good job, galz!
of course, there were some glitches.. we didn't have enough ice, we only had cheap brandies.. good thing i suggested we buy some beers and more ice or it would have been a bummer to most people, Emily forgot the coal thus delaying the much needed grilling of some seafoods.. fortunately, we were able to buy some in one island we hopped in... and the food, ouch! we had some shortages here and there.. the roasted pig didn't last five minutes after "the mob" took turns wastin' the poor animal..
now, when i came to confirmed joining them, i have to set my mind in advance.. keep it together and do everything in my power to restrain the other "me" from showing up.. if you've been around since, uhm, weeks reading this blog-novela, i bet you know what i mean.. otherwise, you need to order that episode where it was full of action, adventure, drama, thriller, etc.. etc..
but kidding aside, do you really wanna know that part?
yawn, i'm getting sleepy doin' this post...
anyway, so there.. i kept my guard up all throughout the event.. thankfully, though he (the other "me") tried in earnest, he failed miserably..
i really, really have to go.. more on this (again!) tomorrow.. if and when i can..
... to be continued.
