Sugar, spice, and everything nice, but don't let that fool you. I embody a fierce and strong Pinay spirit. I grow organic vegetables and make every effort to live sustainably. I am a creative who dabbles in printmaking, screen printing, and I consider myself a master doodler. I'm an animal advocate and a vegetarian. I can probably survive a zombie apocalypse. I'm an avid runner, reader, a teacher, and a jack of all trades. My life can get a little crazy, but it's full of fun and adventures.

Eeeeeeeee!
Hah. In case you haven't guessed, I'm really excited because Paul is coming to visit for a few days. Friday can't come soon enough. I miss my man like crazy. Even that is an understatement. I'm looking forward to spending some quality time with him. It seems like it's been forever since we last saw each other. Yes, I am gushing. Handle yourselves.

HeeHee.
Me: "Mom! Check out my bicep!"
Mom: "Wow! That's just from you working out?"
Me: "Nah. I was born this way, remember?"
Mom: "Really, anak? You get it from your Momma."

Love/Hate Relationship with Spring
Oh my! It's Spring time suckas!
Love:
-The warm weather
-Sunshine
-The extra play time with Notorious D.O.G. in the afternoon
-Running outside instead of the treadmill (we remain frenemies).
Hate:
-The allergies. You name it, I am probably allergic to it. There's a reason why I broke out in hives at soccer camp when I was 15. Stupid plant sperm!
-People wearing inappropriate clothing or lack of clothing to work out. Seriously though, spandex is a privilege, NOT a right, people. I give ya props on the self confidence aspect, but REALLY? Even I don't wear spandex.
-Fellas, if you're going to go shirtless or just wear a tank top, PLEASE for all that is good and not hairy, SHAVE or WAX your back and chest. Nobody wants to work out on that machine after you. Yeah, I'm talking to all of you Gorilla looking Guidos in the weight room who don't wipe the machines down. Heebie-jeebies. Heebie-jeebies.
-Seeing grown men wear Crocs. There's just something awkward about seeing a grown man wear Crocs. They're great for little kids to wear because you can hose them down pretty easily if they get dirty or pee on themselves. But a grown man wearing bright orange Crocs? Yes, I saw that dude at Starbucks again. Must be part of his Spring/Summer wardrobe.

Are You In?
So I need to get my running game going. Geez. I was in an extreme hibernation period this past winter.
According to my Nike+, between September 2009 and March 2010, I have officially ran 208.21 miles. Hooray!
The weather is warm! The sun is out! C'mon people! Let's run to preserve our sexy! Haha. Are you in? Find me on Nike+.

Happy Dance
I got a new job yesterday. My Mom actually did the Happy Dance with me to celebrate my new job. Heh.
I will be working at a Montessori school, five minutes away from my house. I get to teach preschool again. Lovely! The best part? It's right behind Tapioca Express. Oh, the medical benefits I get won't be so bad either.
I am sad to leave my high school students behind. I understand that consistency is important to them, especially since they face so many other challenges in their daily lives. I will finish my projects that I started with them because I don't want to leave them hanging. However, I still don't know how to tell them. I've told two of them, but the next two weeks will be difficult.
I am so extremely grateful for the blessings that continue to come my way.
