Last night, someone who would rather not be named, told me something about her weight loss secrets. I think she’s been experimenting for quite sometime now and finally found a technique that works.

It’s amazing how someone could lose three kilos in just a short period of time. I guess that’s the wonder of the best proven weight loss pills. But still, it’s such an achievement, most especially for someone who barely exercise. Probably it has also something to do with her metabolism, because it’s became faster now, according to her.

Oh well, I hope she gets to reach and maintain her ideal weight soon, and stay there, so she doesn’t have to worry about weight gain again.

I think I need to upgrade and buy memory for my netbook, because I am using programs that would only run smoothly if the pc has more memory. I hate it when it lags and slows down my work, most especially when I’m doing some vector projects with illustrator, and doing my random web stuff at the same time.

I missed those times when I had a more powerful pc, that allows me to open a lot of application, without experiencing any lag-time or screen freezing. After I settle what needs to be settled, the first thing I would do is get a new laptop, so I can do more projects, and probably start video editing too.

I also want to install a program that would allow me to create mixes, and make home brew music, without lifting any instrument. And most important of all, I can play great games again with super high resolution graphics.

I went to the nearby town to buy some supplies and it struck me how a lot of people are affected by obesity. It actually made me thought about the connection between fast food and obesity, especially since I saw a lot of overweight folks munching as they roam about, and they were moving so slow as if walking in the park, that it delayed some people who are in a hurry, caught up in the human-caused street traffic.

I wanted to tell them “will you please cease eating and just get moving” but I know that it’s mean to say that and besides, I know it isn’t always that simple! these are people with medical problems, and they don’t even seem to realize it. It seemed to me that it has become their way of life. I have noticed how people change weight so quickly, as if their weight reflects one is to one ratio to that of the size of their wallets.

When people have a lot of money, which they don’t normally have, they tend to put on weight, and when they lack funds, they simply start to lose weight. This isn’t healthy. The wrong choice of diet contributes a lot to how people gain or lose weight. The primary offenders are those fatty and sugary foods and fastfood diet, which everyone tend to be swayed into when they have money. They tend to lessen the consumption of fresh fish and lean meat, green leafy vegetables and fruits.

I wonder what’s going to happen if all those people will be picked up from the streets and be introduced to a new lifestyle and eating habit. Say for instance they are given a month to live in a diet camp, be given lipozene, introduced to a proper diet program, plus get involved in daily activities that involves sports and exercise. I’m pretty sure, when they get out of the camp and finish the program, they will come out as new individuals. Healthier and fit.

I told myself I have to spend more time working on this site. But recently, I keep on feeling drowsy and I fall asleep a lot for some reason, even during daytime. I don’t think it’s because of the vitamins though, or my medications, most probably it has something to do with the weather.

I have also noticed that my body clock is slowly switching back and adjusting to my old schedule. Which means, I would stay awake longer at night, and switch to sleeping at daytime. For some reason, my body has it’s own system, good thing, am in control of my time.

I guess I should just consider myself lucky, because others find it hard to sleep. Just like my landlord, he finds it hard to sleep at night. The doctor has prescribed him with sleeping pills, and his wife makes him drink tea at night, because it is proven to improve one’s sleep.

For now, my motto is, it is better to be a sleepy head, than to have no sleep at all.

This life is all about endless lessons and learnings. We just have to keep digging, and working, so that we will learn more about our true purpose in this life. Some say they are born to sing, some are born to dance, some are born to create beautiful art masterpieces, and others to play instruments.

Many women were born to become great mothers, and men to become the best fathers, and some say they remain single to fulfill their Mother Theresa dream of becoming the best social workers.

Others become politicians to help run the government, and implement laws to keep the world in order and to prevent chaos. While others become economists, to keep all the financial balls rolling.

How about you? Have you figured out what you are made of and what you want to become? What are your dreams? What do you wish to have? What are you good at? Do you have a special talent, or is there anything that makes you different from the rest? So many questions, all can only be answered by taking a quest through life and discovering yourself and your dreams one day at a time.

Learn more about life, about yourself and the people around you. What is your true calling? Is it to become God’s servant, a teacher, an artist, or simply a maverick just like me.

So, what did you do on grandparent’s day? It’s a very special day for me, but unfortunately, it’s been awhile since I spent it with my granny. Things have become so complicated recently, and even though I’d love to surprise her or give her a gift, I’m way too far.

But I’m pretty sure that my cousins, siblings and the rest of the family spent that day in a special way, as always. They probably went out to eat or have dinner in her favorite restaurant. My grandma loves being pampered, and she is also kind of vain. She has her own natural beauty regimens, wrinkle remover, hair dye, etc. That’s why if you see her in person, you’d never even guess that she’s over eighty years old. So, I’m guessing that they brought her to the spa, have  a massage, brought her to the parlor, etc.

I really miss her a lot, and I’m looking forward to seeing her again. I  hope that I get to spend time with her again, just like before, and do something special for her. Even though we’re far from each other now, I know that my grandma loves me so much, and I love her too.
