Though summer has just past and it will take almost a year before the next summer arrives but Dulce and I are already making early summer plans for it. Since we both want to try surfing, you might end up with a Spanish immersion Costa Rica holiday. We are both huge fans of the TV series “Heroes” and we were inspired to learn Spanish when the character of Maja, a Spanish hero, was introduced. Having a Spanish immersion holiday is like shooting two birds with one stone.

We have to make this early planning because we didn’t get to spend a good summer holiday this year. This is because we didn’t get to save enough money for a good vacation. Anyway, we’ve learned it the hard way and now we are no longer making the same mistake again. Next year is going to be a good vacation for the both of us and we’ll be spending some quality time together. I just hope we can get the work leave that we need to be able to go to such holiday.

I recently found a great tool that estimates the value of my blog. This I don’t know how this tool calculates the value of blogs but I did like the result for my blog. Here’s How much my blog is:

$1,693.62! Yeah… That’s a good amount of money already. How about you, how much is your blog worth?

Dulce and I are going celebrate out first year together this month and before this, she would like to introduce me to a few of their family members. Before this, the only one from her family that I’ve met is Rose who is one of the top Arizona living trusts. The meeting with her turned out well and I think we did like each other. I think she does like me for her cousin. Soon I’ll be meeting some more of her cousins and to be honest I’m not quite sure if I’m really ready for that.

This meeting of some of my girlfriend’s relatives is something that’s not usual for me. I mean, my friends also have relationships that are probably already more than a couple of years but they never met their girlfriend’s relatives yet. Well, I love my girlfriend and I don’t mind doing this absurd thing for her. I’m probably just going to keep quite and not try to impress too much. This introduction to her family is going to be this weekend and I hope everything will turn out well.

Here’s something that I’m currently trying to learn. With the help of my friend Jeff, I’m slowly making it into the world of free running. Here’s a video you can watch to understand free running more:

We’ll, kind of cool huh?

Next week is already going to be Christmas and as a tradition, our company holds a small Christmas party for its employees each year. This party is probably the only event that employees in our company really look forward to because the company gives away cash prizes, gift certificates and grocery package. The employee awards night is also going to be held in this event where employees that showed exemplary performance will be given recognition and rewards.

Aside from gifts and prizes, we also look forward to the games where we get to have fun. Our Christmas party is not just a party for celebrating our savior’s birth but also a great team activity for us. We get to know more about our co-workers and make friends with them. This event is where I actually got introduced with my current girlfriend; another thing why men in the company likes this event. Anyway, the best thing about this is there’s going to be no work on that day!

Have you ever felt that you wanted to get a new life and start it all over again to make things right? Well, I just did and it’s just said to think that no matter how hard you wish that it could happen, it never will. What’s even worse is that you can see what should have been your situation if you just did things the other way. Yeah… Life sucks this much and it hurts like hell. Since I can’t get a new life, what if I just go to a far new place where no one knows me. Like taking Spain holidays and just staying there for good.

Well, I’m not expecting that a lot of people will understand what I feel but I just needed to let this out. I’m having a mix of emotions and I’m probably going insane. The thing is I don’t exactly know what to do and where to start to fix things. All the bad things that happened in my life have all piled up and it cannot be considered as a challenge any more but plainly bad luck. Anyway, I guess there no point it this either. I guess I better sleep and try to forget about these things… (hiccup!) Forgive me for the effect of alcohol.

This urban term refers to our day job, or a job that help pays the bills but it’s not what you really want to do.

What’s your clark kent job?

 

This term is basically derived from the story of superman where a super hero disguises as an ordinary guy who’s working for a company as an ordinary employee. Something that he does not like but he needs to do.

While at home and doing nothing but day dreaming, a knock at the door puffed the cloud above my head. This was definitely a bad time to disturb me because I was in the middle of a nice dream. I went to the door and found out that it was Liza, an old friend I used to hang out with. According to her, she just visited be me because he was in town to visit his parents. We had a small chit chat and she told me of her travel experiences like Ixtapa vacations and cruises.

Our conversation lasts for about a couple of hours and that was probably the quickest two hours of my life. Time flew like the wind and she was leaving in a blink of an eye. We had to say or goodbyes for now because she has an appointment to rush to. We exchanged digits and promised each other to get in touch more often. I can’t really explain what I felt because of her visit but it was definitely positive. I hope this is not going to be our last meeting as I’m already looking forward for the next one.

Being cool doesn’t only require your outside appearance to be good looking but you also need to be cool inside your body. You can also be cool from within if you keep yourself healthy. I do workout in the gym three times a week and I maintain a healthy and fat-free diet. In addition to that, I drink Uji Matcha tea everyday instead of coffee. Drinking tea is something that my grandmother taught me. I didn’t like it at first but I came to realize how drinking tea is healthy and I just got to learn to drink it regularly.

If there’s anything that I really avoid, it’s eating fast foods. This type of food is full of fat and salt; two components of food that are totally unhealthy. The human body should also get enough sleep so I get at least eight hours of sleep. Others say that you are sleeping a third of your life if you sleep eight hours in a day. But I’d say, you are going to live longer if you give your body enough rest to recover. So, are you cool inside and out?
