Catching Up

yeah, i know. all these long days of no posting in between. what have we missed?

• i drove to new york on my way to swim training. i don't really drive in new york. but my friend sheila, who usually drives in, was having a bad day and convinced me to do the driving instead. if she only knew... maybe she wouldn't have asked me. =) well, we got back and forth in one piece!

• the brick. finally, i got a sense of where the term comes from. it's part of the triathlon training where you bike, then you run. first of all, our course began with this steep incline, where i had to get off my bike coz i simply ran out of strength to break out of the g-force... so we were biking loops around central park. the hills, which weren't big or steep hills, were wicked. my thighs and legs were aching and i'm not sure where my breathing was going. on the way back, we have to go through the same steep incline. frankly, the way down was scarier than the way up. i felt like i was going to fall head over heels off my bike and that would have been the end of the dream... so after all that, we ran, which started with going up a set of stairs. and i had to go ever so slowly coz my legs felt, like... tada! bricks! yup, that's it. move along.

• my younger brother vir moved out from our apartment. sigh... well, he is getting married soon so he needs to do his thing.

• i had a hair cut.

• my obsessions. jack bauer and 24. he is way too dangerous and cool for reality. i'd like to download some schematics into my pda... daddy yankee. el cangri, king of reggaeton, latino jaugernaut. music is brutally hot. he assaults the mic so hard he should get thrown in jail... entourage, my favorite show from last season is coming back from vacation. oh don't we all want to take that ride...

• my birthday is coming really soon. (just so you don't miss it.)

stay tuned!
