Stupid Weight Gain

This must be my punishment for letting my blog go... I've also let myself go! What started as something I wanted for myself (a healthier me), I now want to rid myself of!

2 months ago I started the quest to gain weight. I honestly thought that at 97-99lbs, I needed to add a bit because a double digit weight is kind of worrying.

Though I'm only 5'1", most poeple would say that the 97 lbs is okay for me since I'm small, but I'm not very comfortable with it, and I don't want to give the appearance of weakness or being frail at all. I want to look and feel healthy and active at a normal 100-105 bracket at least. That's not bad to want, is it? It is stull under normal weight range.

It started out manageable, but I guess I kind of lost focus for a bit. What I ate were chocolates. I LOVE CHOCOLATES. I cannot put into text how much I love them, but the pictures below will show you. So everyday in the office I ate a lot:
















Aaargh! And so many more chocolates that I really feel guilty now. :( I haven't weight myself recently but I think I am at the 108-110 range. The weighing scale in our workplace clinic is busted and is up for calibration until further notice, and I don't really have a weighing scale at home.
I'm now on the way to recovery! :d I stopped eating chocolates Monday this week and it's made even harder because my sister just sent a package of chocolates along with other stuff just yesterday, too. We have almond chocolates, crunky, pucca, pocky and gourmet cafe chocolates that I refuse to eat anymore!!!
:( I'm suffering hahaha! But I know I have to stop eating snacks so much and start eating healthy. I need to lower it a bit again!
Sorry for being away, I missed everyone :)

Schoolgirl by Osamu Dazai: Melancholic Contemplation

Arriving all the way from USA, I had a tiny traveler plop down right in front of my desk. The moment I held the book, I immediately focused long and hard on the book cover. I've had my small share of contemporary Japanese novels and each had very interesting designs, but not one is as gently arresting as this Schoolgirl by Osamu Dazai published by One Peace Books . Soft yet stark. I'm not one to judge a book by its cover, but it certainly is a good way to hold the interest of the readers. A closer look at the cover would remind one of things that are "beautiful in its simplicity". Everybody knows the Japanese aesthetics, a "set of ancient ideals that include wabi (transient and stark beauty), sabi (the beauty of natural patina and aging), and yûgen (profound grace and subtlety). * " Reflecting at these values, it's wonderful to observe how the cover follows the flow of wabi and yugen, isn't it? But a book should offer more than...

VOV Castledew Eyeshadow Palette

I've always wanted an eyeshadow palette though I'm not sure if eyeshadows are my thing. I just love Castledew because it's so princessy and shiny and jewel-like and perfect. A Castle dew eyeshadow palette in all its shiny pretty glory! This is available in the La Core stall (korean beauty shop). Every time I passed by their stall, I always ask to view the palette and I always jump up and down in delight when I see it. Now I have it! MUAHAHAHA! I'll try to play around with the colors! See you!

Books in the Mail: HarperCollins Stash for August-September

I've just about settled here in Manila, yet my address is giving me a headache. I've only been used to a residential address, not a condominium unit number so I'm always worried about lost mail. I didn't think that my Harper Collins books would find its way to me. Until one fine morning: I was absolutely crazy happy. I have very little faith in Manila postal offices due to horrendous reports of misdirected mail, opening of packages, and even high taxation of mailed goods which is so ridiculous #thirdworldproblems and all that. I received two packages from Harper Collins on the same week, so you can just imagine me jumping for joy. Here are the books I received from several months' worth: I am an avid fan of Harper Collins, even before they noticed me and my blog. They are one of the publishing houses that I love because their editors and agents are AMAZING! They source out new authors and get them published, and those are testament to their great ...
