The more I explore, the more convinced I am that there's got to be more!

Yes, I entitled this post with a triplicate of the same word. SO SUE ME! My blog, my rules. 

Moving on. I feel so chatty tonight that I decided to share my day after what seems like an eternity of inactive blogging. 

Wednesday.

I slept around 1am from PM-ER duty and literally crawled out of bed around 5:15 am to shower and go to my requested AM duty. I keep telling myself I can deal with PM-AM duties since I live close to the hospital, but my body totally disagrees. Anyways, mid-shift I remember feeling bloated when I woke up and decided to check my weight  convinced I was gaining back  weight I already lost after two weeks of uncontrolled eating and plenty of PM duties + holidays making me unable to go to the gym  :( True enough, when I got on the scale it confirmed what I was hoping it wouldn't. 

Originally 129 lbs. then down to 125.5 lbs. to this!!!
CURSES!!! !@#$%^&* 

 Oh well. It was a pretty toxic day but I managed to survive. 

Since I was tired I decided to skip Pole Dance class to give myself a few more hours of sleep and just attend Zumba class.  I arrived 20 minutes late due to bad traffic and had to go to the back near the wall (which I hate) since a lot of people were in attendance. Around 15 minutes getting my groove on. LOL. I was surprised because Teacher Via called me and a guy to dance with her on stage. WAHAHA. I had to give it my all and pretend I wasn't huffing and puffing and tried to plaster a smile on my face even if I was getting tired. BUT IT WAS FUN! ZUMBA IS SO FUN! I LOVE TEACHER VIA! The class ended with a song by Spice Girls. I would have died then and there because of the pure awesomeness and girlishness of the moves we were doing! HAHA. And that was that = 45 minutes of sweat. 

Prior to going to the gym I searched for an establishment in Makati near the gym via Google maps on my Android that offers milk tea. HAHA. I had a sudden craving, go figure. I found Tea Farm with matching directions on how to go from there from the gym. Another pure awesomeness moment!






And so I walked and walked, went underground and surfaced again (underpasses) until I found the quaint little shop and began to decide on what to order. I read a blog suggesting their Cupcake milk tea which tastes like cake batter, or so they say. I wanted that. But when I asked the guy behind the counter what he recommended he told me to get their original milk tea so that I could appreciate the other flavors next time. And so gullible me went ahead and got the original even if I was dead set on getting the cupcake flavored one. WRONG MOVE. Haha. It wasn't bad mind you, but their Original was . . . yup you guessed it. So original it didn't satisfy the craving I had. Oh well next time then!



After getting the milk tea I continued walking around hoping to discover a new place to eat and hang out next time if me and my boyfie were ever in the Makati area. I eventually wandered myself off to Ayala Triangle and saw these amazing lights. Oh how I wish Jin was with me. The lights were so purtttty!







FORGIVE ME FOR THE PHOTOS. I HAD NO SENSE OF PERSPECTIVE. JUST SHOT AWAY SINCE MY PHONE WAS DYING ON ME.

I  continued my rendezvous and was in a street I was not familiar with so I walked a little bit faster since there were not much people around and I was being paranoid when I saw this: 


I WAS HUNGRY. SO I ENTERED.

AND LEFT WITH SOME FREEDOM FRIES AND A STEAK BURRITO.
DID I LEAVE HAPPY? WHATCHATHINK? :)
