Last week was quite eventful. It started with my long overdue dental prophylaxis last Monday. Looking back, I'm glad I stopped procastinating about it because I went to the clinic just in time I needed one. Nasermunan ako ng doctor slash brother in law ko. Haha. I saved a lot of money just because I decided to came by. It caused me a few sleepless nights, actually.

On Tuesday, I decided to go to zumba. Being on day 4 of intermittent fasting made me weak and dizzy at times. Minsan I experienced brain fog. I've always look forward to my breakfast, and yun ang nawala, because I need to fast for sixteen hours. I usually start my household chores in the morning till noon, and yet, I survived by just drinking black coffee and water. Sino ang di manghihina? Eto na, when Tuesday came, that's when my real struggle started. I need to eat at twelve noon because zumba time was at two o'clock in the afternoon. I need fuel. But I miscalculated the time of my last meal the other night. I should've eaten at six o'clock. Ayun, kinaya ko sumayaw without solid food. I was successful but I noticed I lacked coordination while dancing.

I brought with me my first meal of the day and ate at the car after zumba. Another observation was, I was so hungry but food doesn't taste yummy anymore. Yung feeling na nalipasan? Ganon. I eat just because I needed to.

It was in my schedule to have my facial after zumba. I got my voucher thru Metrodeal(p330 or $6.3) courtesy of my sister. Yes, another long overdue task. It was my first time at Dermcare because I used to go to Dermstrata and at my gym's in house facial center.
To be honest, saved for their low fee and my facialist, which was good, I don't like their facilities and the whole facial plus diamond peel process itself. You don't have privacy because you lie on a cot so close to each other with a stranger which was stressful. Eh di ba this is one form of relaxation kasi you should feel pampered one way or another. At Dermstrata, you'll be asked to lie down and they will do the rest. Dito ikaw pa ang magwa-wash ng face mo. Plus, the medicine(antibiotic) they put on my face after pricking, ang hapdi! Ouch! It was my first time to experience something like that. My facialist asked me to add P150 for the collagen mask which wasn't included in the package. I told her I have one at home, a gift from my sister. But she was too insistent. Sige na nga. In conclusion, I decide to just stick to my favorite and trusted facial center for years na talaga which is Dermstrata. They have great service, relaxing ambience and nice smelling meds too, that really works on my skin.
My husband which came from another location met up with me at five o'clock. We had our early dinner at Mesa restaurant. We updated ourselves about our day over these...

After dinner, I went to Dairy Queen to buy an ice cream sandwich to go for dessert. My husband just waited for me at the parking lot. As I was passing by a restaurant, someone behind me was shouting my surname repeatedly. I thought 'naku, another former student of mine recognized me'. When I turned around, it was my former batch mate in high school! Apparently, their section was about to have a meet-up/dinner for a balikbayan classmate who I knew, too. Ayun, nagkamustahan for a few minutes. They were very nice to invite me to dine with them but I begged off because my husband was waiting for me. It indeed was a pleasant surprise.
After my Thursday stint at the hospital, I decided to rest this weekend to regain my strength. I used this also as an opportune time to scratch off some major tasks for my upcoming trips that I was too lazy to do so in the past. I was able to secure the requirements I need and was able to book my accommodations. Next up is my itinerary. I'm so excited for my summer 2019!
