Ooh. I was asking an old college friend if he knew a list of cons in Manila. If I were to go back late this year, I would like to attend one of those events to see the difference from local cons here. So I received this link for the website, the New World Alliance. Looks like they track not only anime cons but anything sci-fi and fantasy as well. Interesting. Thanks, TJ.

I wonder if I’ll get lucky with the dates.

P90X: Days 38 - 45

Filed under: P90X Lean — Ten @ 2:22 am

Jotting down impressions/detail/comments on the P90x program helps out a whole lot. It gives you a better idea of what’s needed to improve. Or so I learned from the week-long absence of this not-so-beloved blog.

The rest of the week proceeded smoothly, except for minor alterations in the routines. For today’s exercise, I went a bit insane, pairing the Chest, etc. workout with cardio and kenpo. It’s tough, but needed.

One thing that tremendously helps me to get through this program is the regular phone calls with Mother Dearest. She’s a fitness freak, and she worried for her eldest daughter who went on years-long eating binge. So she’s delighted with the developments. Heck, I’m happy with the developments.

Later, I’ll be dealing with the horrible yoga. Bah. I can’t enjoy that routine.

Testing 1-2-3.

Here and back again!

First things first. I thought I broke the blog because of a stupid upgrade. Then, I cried. Inside, anyway. I figured, the heck with it and start anew. Then, I changed my mind. Again. And again. And again. Then, I was preoccupied with laziness and procrastination. Let’s just say The Park’s offline days were spent lurking everywhere.

Today wasn’t supposed to be different. But a kindly friend lent his hand to this poor schlub. And guess what? It worked. Whew. I actually managed to figure out the database stuff. Yay me.

Now, I can whine to my heart’s content. And letting other people read about it.

C, thanks for the help. You’re my hero.

Hm. A snappish morning for yours truly. I was going to make a big deal out of a comment from one of the animu bloggers, about karaoke nonetheless. At least, I had the sense to back off even if I’m feeling rather prickly.

That’s why I shouldn’t surf after waking up. I tend to be extremely grouchy in the morning. I hate mornings.
