my precious, beeR BeLLY

i was shopping all afternoon last Monday at Landamark, Glorietta and SM. I really had the best time being with myself buying presents for some loved ones and for myself too(xempre). I had the best bargains on all that i bought. haha I also dined alone at my favorite place, Pizza Hut. I’m actually not a im-gonna-die-without-pizza type but i just love the ambiance of the place. I decided to eat there while resting my feet. I just cant explain fully how i enjoyed my time looking for stuffs with no time limit. Whoa!

The Makati malls are obviously my fave place to shop, eat and hang out. It is very accessible. no doubt about it. I can reach the place within 15minutes or less. However, I always have a problem going home from Glorietta area. I just don’t know. Ive been living in Makati for more than 2 years already but I just cant seem to get the perfect and convenient way to commute. There was even one time that i walked long enough to realize Im already too close to home to even ride a jeepney.

But something amusing happened last Monday that even up to this point makes me laugh whenever i remember it. My last stop was landmark. I decided to go out and look for FX taxi there. I was thinking that since the taxi drove us there, then there maybe some taxis there ready to load passengers. So there i tried my luck. As usual I noticed a long line of passengers waiting for their turn. If im gonna be joining them, it would probably take me more or less than 30minutes to get a cab. and I dont have 30minutes. hehe So I did look for a cab, deviating from the long line. Fortunately, one empty cab stopped in the middle of the pedestrian lane and opened the door for me. Well…Im so lucky I thought. I thanked the driver for his kindness and all sort of emo thing..lol I thought he would just say thanks as that’s the normal response we receive from them. any idea? he said,

“well, if only youre not pregnant, I shouldnt have stopped and opened the door for you.”

WHAT???!!!

I asked him again just to check coz he must be joking. But he was god damn serious. He even asked me on how many months Im pregnant and all. I wanted to respond sarcastically but I just cant coz he was nice to me really. When the whole thing sink in, I just laughed with him. It was so funny. And i looked at my tummy..hmmm too much beer..haha I  guess it’s time to be very very very serious about working out. Lately, I lost weight already but it was because i was starving myself. I wasnt eating rice for quite a while already. I also dont know what happened. I used to really do a lot of things to sweat out. I think I have gone to be too lazy to even raise a finger.

What can I do now? nothing but laugh at it. Yes, im serious of getting my shape back but on the back of my mind, I shouldnt be too focused on it. It’s no biggie. I just felt the urge of writing this coz it’s kinda funny. My friends know me and my beer belly stories. It has been my struggle for years already. Up to the moment I can hear remarks like,

You’re ok now…except the belly thing..

haha! whatever. I love myself. Me and my precious.
