it's a not so bad trend.

well, well, well. back in the OC after a long week. my first real week at work in my new position and i feel that it's starting to click. thank God. it's about time. i did a little better this week. time to get better. it's already sunday and i'm already tired, and not ready to go back to work. thank God for no work tomorrow! yippee for 4 day weeks!

i love weekends. it was like being in good company - with lots of food, dancing, and good music. for sure. the best combination. and then there was the late night pit stop. and then there was the morning walk of shame. minus the shame. impeccable timing JD - her text message was greeted with a recap of events. woke up to a clean car in the am. yay i love when it rains and it washes my car! ghetto at its finest. drive home deliriously to orange county and pump it up. bounce in a bounce house and drive around orange county for a bit. sports authority, apparently that's where it's at. for a little while. ;)

i went to the airport last night to pick up my cousin. it was his first time in the states. considering the first time i met him was at my grandma's funeral in the philippines about a month ago, it was awesome. i think i was more distracted, however, by the reuniting moments i observed that night. there was this one couple that i was sooo watching the entire time. it was the cutest thing ever. he had clearly come back..i think from mexico. she greeted him with a rose, and they would NOT let go of each other. it was the cutest thing. right out of a movie. you could tell how happy they were to be together, they would probably do it later on, not so later after, and they were touching each other's face, being like, wow, this is for real. it was the most awesomest thing ever. probably because i haven't personally had that experience lately, and so i was able to enjoy being a spectator in that moment. anyway, i loved it. and then...my mom and i got in a fight. but what's new? :)

thennn i woke up...and we rode 32 miles today...all the way down to san onofre. ah-may-zing. i'm starting to love cycling more and more. no more need to hit the brakes when i'm going down a hill. there's no time for that. it's way too fun just cruising down and keeping the momentum for the uphill. i loved it. so freeing, the red thunderbolt has arrived. YES. i said it.

in the past twenty minutes, i just received confirmation that i'm ok. that my decisions are not that bad, and that i'm pretty awesome. i love it. now, gina p needs to come back so that i can fill her in on my life. one more week!
