Scorecard


now on its 3rd day, i haven't had a smoke since Dec 31 2005, 11:45 pm.

it's easier than i think it should be, although i look stupid after eating meals just standing there and doing nothing when i used to have a fag between my fingers and inhaling carelessly.

steph asked me if my resolution meant that i'll only smoke while drinking. I replied, no, this is totality. And he seemed genuinely impressed - until he turned around and i swore i heard chuckling noises.

i once read how a cocaine addict could will himself to give up smoking but not coke. i guess i take comfort in the fact that this is much easier done than feared.

yeah, i should be talking...it's only been three days.

so the hell with it, i'll work out tomorrow morning and play basketball at night.

There's such a thing as dessert or coffee after meals. Or tea. Now I would want to eat with you again. ;-)

Crisis of confidence

prologue: I hedged against writing this entry but i guess transparency won over everything else. If i continued writing about just the good things, it wouldn't make much sense 10 years from now, as any offspring might see this and conclude that was a cheery person my entire life. --- We lost a game we should have won last night by 3 points. Led the entire game except the last 2 minutes. And what's worse, i spent the whole game chained to the bench. I do realize i may not be as good as the rest of the players, but i try to do my share whenever asked. I really felt bad knowing i could have helped one way or the other, but i guess the coach was afraid i'd do more harm than good. So despite being the earliest to arrive for the game, my jersey hardly worked up a sweat, and it was so bad that my water bottle got home untouched. I even forgot to bring home my shoes. A teammate took it home with him and joked later that it was lucky it didnt fit him. If it did, i would have given ...

Here's to a thousand hits

i wanted to write a couple of entries, but somehow the spirit is willing but the fingers are fat and tired. must be from doing all that weboggle. it's seriously addicting, and trying to reach the top 10 is somewhat of an unending challenge. try it yourself by visiting here . anyway, the celebration of the 1000th hit to my blog is too good to pass up so here i am at 1 in the morning writing an entry. I know it's not much compared to hits from google or yahoo, but having my blog viewed a thousand times is more than an achievement for me. it's been a crazy week at work with all the activities going on that i surprise myself for not being burned out yet. i do admit i'm having too much fun to derive some sense of fatigue out of it. Muziklaban is over finally, and it was a blast for yours truly to have attended his first concert with a special all-access ID around his neck. That means i can eat all the food i want and go to all the restricted areas without some bouncer handl...
