Very Special Love

I never believed in love
I was deceived by love
I never had much luck with lovers before

And I couldn't compete
I seemed just part of the street
To be walked on by everyone but then

Then, I found a very special love in you
It's a feeling that's so totally new
Over and over, it's burning inside
And I found a very special love in you
And it almost breaks me in two
Squeezing me tighter
But I'm never gonna let go

You're not like the rest
I know you're one of the best
You give more than you should and take nothing in return

Stay always with me
And I always will be
The one person that you can count on always to love you

And I found a very special love in you
It's a feeling that's so totally new
Over and over, it's burning inside
And I found a very special love in you
And it almost breaks me in two
Squeezing me tighter
But I'm never gonna let go

And I Found a very special love in you
It's a feeling that's so totally new
Over and over, it's burning inside
I found a very special love in you
And it almost breaks me in two
Squeezing me tighter
But I'm never gonna let go

cool run

I always wanted to run and jog but my strength is not that cooperative. I palpitate and have a hard time breathing and so I end up just walking. I want to be healthy and lose weight but nonetheless I easily get tired. I end up getting turned-off. So I settled with my relaxing walks inside Ateneo campus.

I was surfing the net when I came across this site for a Running Plan. It is specifically designed to help beginners get used to running. I am quite excited to try it and I hope this will work better so I will be more strong and be able to run religiously.

This is a 9-weeks program that I have to do three times a week. No more, no less. The program is interesting as it doesn't require you push yourself too much. You just have to be consistent and be motivated enough.Oh I forgot! Discipline is much needed I guess. I plan to start the program next week. I'm crossing my fingers xx.

Week 1: 5mins warm-up walk/alternate 60sec jog & 2mins walking/ total 20mins
Week 2: 5mins warm-up walk/alternate 90sec jog & 2mins walking/ total 20mins
Week 3: 5mins warm-up walk/2reps of 90sec jog/90 sec walk /jog 3mins/walk 3mins
Week 4: 5mins warm-up walk/3mins jog/ 90sec walk/ 5mins jog/2.5mins walk/
3mins jog/ 90sec walk/ 5mins jog
Week 5: 5mins warm-up walk/5mins jog/3 mins walk/5mins jog/3mins walk/5mins jog
Week 6: 5mins warm-up walk/5mins jog/3mins walk/8mins jog/3mins walk
Week 7: 5mins warm-up walk/jog 25mins
Week 8: 5mins warm-up walk/jog 28mins
Week 9: 5mins warm-up walk/jog 30mins

*this program should be followed 3X a week for 9 months.

These books of Bo Sanchez is my constant companion. I love reading them. I gain strength and wisdom reading his journal. The approach of Brother Bo is very inspiring... very humorous. You will even be surprised that sometimes a specific post is very related to what is currently happening in your life.

I started collecting his books 3 years back. I used to buy kerygma magazines then eventually his books. The books costs P300-P400 but the value is worth your life already. The texts inspires you to be more closer to God and feel his unconditional love.

flats

I am a big fan of stilletos, mules and high- heeled sandals.. well, basically because it really does looks sexy and fashionable right? :D Until I landed on a sales/marketing job that required me to go out most often than not. That would me walking when visiting clients and attending meetings. For the first couple of months, I tried to tolerate even if my soles would then swell which is actually bad because my feet began look dry at times already (yuck!). Not to mention the threat of varicose veins. Bad.

I then resorted to wearing flats. I was initially weary and uncomfortable because I feel so short. (hehe, fyi my fiance is about 6'2" .. so I used to feel so short for him when wearing plain flats).

I found these really nice and cute flats last December when I went to Karl Edwards Bazaar. I am a self-confessed bargain hunter and tiangge freak! Aside from the challenge of getting the lowest bargain, I just enjoy looking around for unique and cute finds. I am amazed to see locally made trinkets also.

The back & white patent flats on the left are what I usually use everyday when I go to work. Very classic and it sure fits my corporate get-up. The beaded gold flats is what I usually wear on weekends or on a dress-down Friday @ work. These are my first ever ballet flats which I bought about 3 years ago in a tiangge selling items from India. Nice no? I can wear it without any accessories :) The bronze ballet flats with a ribbon is cute but I seldom use it.No reason. I juts don't feel like using it. The last two above (green/zebra) are my favorites. Very chick! I usually wear it with jeans and plain top. Cute!

These are juts cheap buys! Promise! :) No more than 400 except for the gold ballet flats.

wow! :D

not so far away

We went to Caylabne Bay Resort in Ternate, Cavite for our post-summer company outing. The place is about 2 hours away from Manila. Not bad for a nearby getaway. I was a bit weary if the resort was good enough to satisfy our employees' expectations but I figured we can do away with it. I prepared games for everyone to enjoy and I made sure that the resort food was good. Being a food-lover myself, I am more concerned about the resort more than the beach :D

The resort is a very private getaway I must say. It is very secluded and when I said that, I meant it literally. The place is not accessible to public vehicles. The buses and other public vehicles coming from Manila are only until Ternate town proper which is still about 30-40 minutes away from the resort. I was curious enough so I asked the guard from the entrance if trikes can get in from the town proper but it will cost you 300-400 pesos to hire a trike to bring you in. Expensive but fair enough, the trikes won't have passengers on their way back to the town proper.

The road going to the resort is very complicated. My officemate said that it was worse when she went there 3 years ago. At least now, the roads were cemented for the convenience of their guests. The security is very tight because you will have to go through two stops before finally entering the resort proper. Our things were checked because guests are not allowed to bring in food nor beverage. Funny that when I read our entry slip, the bananas that I brought for the games were specified on the list. That was when I assumed that the resort food were expensive.


The rooms were big but not ok. It is suite type meaning there's a sala and a kitchen that weren't very useful since guests are not allowed to bring in food. So rule is, you have to go to El Patio (clubhouse near the beach) when you feel like eating. The good part is, even if teh rooms were old and outdated, they were clean enough. I didn't catch anyone sneezing :P No cockroach, no insects, no creepy whatsoever.

The service & assistance of the staffs were good. One staff welcomed our group with juice drinks and shell necklaces ( <-- im wearing them in my photos :D )




The food served to us was excellent except for the dessert. Buffet meals were already included in our package and surprisingly the food were more than enough for everyone. In short, "di nila kami tinipid". Sorry friends, I have no photos of the food. Its either I was recharging my cam battery or I was busy eating the crabs!:D


We played games on the first day. Everyone enjoyed the obstacle course, sack race, tug of war and kayak race. (view more photos @ regenttravel.multiply.com) I prepared simple tokens for the winners. Well thought of. I got them sports tumblers, coffee mugs, towels, small pillows.

Overall, it was worth the trip & experience. And I can even recommend it to friends and families who want to go on a quick getaway from the city stress. (http://caylabne.com.ph)

Oh by the way, there's hardly a mobile signal inside.You have to go near the beach area to be able to catch one :D

craving for these doughnuts today! arggghh!
