Posted by carey

Most people I know are concerned about having slimmer waistlines and healthier figures. Losing weight is usually part of somebody’s New Year’s resolutions or personal goals for 2009.

I’m glad I did my dance-exercise activities for four days now. That’s quite a feat for me considering my procrastination when it comes to my health and fitness goals. Well at least, I’m back to my half cup rice habit and consuming more vegetables. Next on the list would be drinking lots of water (at […]

Life’s sweet interruptions

Posted by carey

Sometimes life calls us to do something different than the usual course of activities that we are accustomed to. Some refer to it as moving out of your comfort zone. For me, it was not just a move but a jolt. One fine day, my mom just called me from Manila and told me to […]
