In A Nutshell (Again)

The last two months have been quite a rollercoaster ride, it's seriously not even funny. It was as much fun as it was stressfull, and I am emotionally, physically, and mentally drained. Let's see if I can recap what the big blur has been about. (Although, if you follow me on twitter, I'm sure you're pretty much updated to when I last ate..)

• 04.12.11 - Dee, Nadienne, and I went on our girldate to Texas de Brazil. I got a buy one dinner, get one dinner free coupon for my birthday. It was fun, free food is epecially more fun! :)
• 04.16.11 - I registered for a Realy for Life team and I'm a captain this year!! I'm kinda nervous, but I'm excited as well. This is my sixth year rockin' Relay for Life, and my first time being a captain. But thanks to my friend Maria, who helping me out, I hope we raise a decent amount of money!
• 04.22.11 - This day was Earth Day and of course, Dee and I, dealhounds that we are, drove around to score some freebies. Score number 1: Starbucks free coffee when you bring your own mug in.Score number 2:  Disney Store gave out recycled totes when you bring in five plastic shopping bag.
• 04.29.11 - KC and I stayed up from midnight to about 7 am watching The Royal Wedding! Hahaha! I'm sure we're not the only crazy ones who did, and it was fun. And then we pretty much slept all afternoon..ish. And then I went to see Fast Five with Dee, Kuya Owen, Melissa, and Bryan.
• And of course, here are there are a bunch of random shopping trips, food trips, and colorful conversations with wonderful people. :)

Day Six: Hope Reigns. <3

It's been more than 24 hours since our spat, and I still haven't heard from him. I'm just waiting, and hoping, and wishing, and hoping. I'm just giving it time, and space, because I know that's what he wants.

But I miss him. Which is funny, if you think about it, because that is why this whole thing started anyway. Because I missed him.

I hope this is just a phase. That everything will be okay. I love him. I miss him. I hope he's doing okay.

inxs:
Yes, I am doing fine with my new job. I learned a lot in one day with cashiering today with Melva. Awesomeness, definitely. And tomorrow, it's payday! Hopefully, I'm already included in the payroll, haha! And I made a new friend of course. And she even offered that maybe we can be roommates when we can both afford it. Oh, economy. Oh, and I already scheduled my second interview with Fedex for tomorrow at 1pm. Hopefully, everything goes well.

And I just want to point out that I drank a large cup of frozen cappucinio from Dunkin Donuts before i went to work today, at noon, and the lady made it super-duper strong. I am now hungry, dizzy, and pretty much jittery and high from the caffeine. My hands are shaking, and I can barely think straight. Never again!

Day Four: Newbie.

Today was my first day at work! "Thank you for calling Feeny Chrysler-Jeep-Dodge. How may I direct your call?" Yep, that was me! I have to admit it was kinda weird being back on the workforce, but I know I'll have to get used to it. It was kind of scary and overwhelming at first because I have to use the overhead and page people, meaning I have to be able to speak loud and clear so that people can hear me on both lots.

And I came home and there was awesome food! It was tostadas with refried beans, meat, salsa, sour cream, lettuce, and cheese. Oh, and I had it with soy meat too! Plus, I ate two so I'm stuffed like hizzle for the rest of the day. But now Maria's in the kitchen making them again and now I'm tempted to eat again, but with real meat this time.

I took a picture too! Coming up soon!

Day Two: Food Adventure.

Since I'm going to be living here at Maria's house for some time, I know I'm going to be experiencing some of her mom's great cooking. Yes, she's an awesome cook -just as Maria- and she also makes these most amazing cakes and desserts. .:yum:. I guess that means actually enlisting my boyfriend to actually, really work out with me. Because if not, at the end of my stay here, I'll be little miss fatty mcfatfat.

Anyhoo, this morning, I ate this scrambled egg thing with tortillas actually scrambled with it. The tortillas were chopped up and cooked together with the eggs, and then squirt a quarter slice of lime in it. For breakfast! Yummy.

And then for lunch, I had posole, which is almost quite similar to the Filipinos' version of sinigang. Only difference is that, you cook the vegetables with sinigang. Since Maria's sister is vegetarian, they mom made two versions of posole, the one with meat in in, and the other one with mushrooms. The food had skin with fat or whatever you call it and some white round things that remind me of corn but bigger than corn.. I don't know what it's called.

Anyway, I grabbed a bowl and mixed up the vegetarian and meatitarian (?) version because I love mushrooms, and then I added some shredded lettuce (cabbage? I can never tell..), fresh slices of onions, chopped oregano leaves, powdered red pepper, and avocado slices. And I added a couple of tostadas and refried beans as a side. Yummy, yummy, yummy. I should've taken photos. Hmm. I'll do it next time for sure.

Oh, and I forgot to add. You squeeze lime into it, too. :D
