vitamin B

The B vitamins are eight water-soluble vitamins that play important roles in cell metabolism. Historically, the B vitamins were once thought to be a single vitamin, referred to as vitamin B (much like how people refer to vitamin C or vitamin D). Later research showed that they are chemically distinct vitamins that often coexist in the same foods. Supplements containing all eight are generally referred to as a vitamin B complex. (Wikipedia)

My vitamin B is different.
...it burns calories
...it releases stress
...it gives me a chance to mingle with friends [and enemies, haha!]

I usually have it once a week... for two hours.

Equipment needed: Handy-dandy racket and shuttle cock

It’s a good exercise and a great hobby.

I love this game.

















March 31 is the 90th day of the year in the Gregorian calendar.

It marks the end of the 1st quarter. Haaay.

Growing up

Mae, my 8-year old niece, spends more time fixing her hair than doing her home work.
She still watches cartoons but is starting to watch teen flicks.
She puts on lip gloss, lip stick, blush-on and whatever she finds in my sister’s drawer [whenever it’s possible].
Funny how little kids nowadays act like grown-ups.
What’s even funnier is how grown-ups act like little kids, hahaha!

They say when you are in your adolescent years, you start to hate your parents.
And when you finally become an adult, you still hate them.
But time will come [and it’s coming soon] that you will become like your parents.

When that time comes, you will realize that they were right.
Well, not necessarily right. At least, they had a point.
It is so true that “papunta ka pa lang, pabalik na sila”.

But of course, you can always take a different path.
We now have cars, buses, MRT hahaha! Or you can walk if you want to burn those calories.

Life is not a one-way stream. It is a cycle. Going forward and going back. Meeting people. Meddling with people. Missing people.

When is growing up too soon? And when is it too late?
I am 23 years old now... going on 24 in a couple of months. Huhuhu.
Shall I be acting like an adult now? Matured might be the proper term.

Oh well, bottomline of the story... it is better to mingle with people from different walks of life, age range, race, gender, social status, and intellectual capacity (hahaha!).
