I’ve been neglecting this blog for almost a month now. You know why? Because there’s nothing interesting going on. I really have to rethink this blog. I can’t go on talking about my family especially now that everything seems to be ok. Everyone’s at peace now. So watch out for a few changes in the coming days. Of course, I will still throw in a bit of family drama once in awhile.

father’s day
Today is father’s day and I had lunch with the family to celebrate it. We went to one of the newer restaurants in one of the biggest malls here. I didn’t get my father anything. I was supposed to buy a gift but I suddenly found myself very busy these days. I tried to give him money but he didn’t take it. I don’t know if he felt insulted. Was he happy? I really don’t know. I didn’t mean anything by it. Anyway, happy father’s day to all fathers.

yes, no, perhaps
Yes, I’m still alive.
No, I was not abducted by aliens or by sweaty men.
Perhaps, I should explore blogging from space or practice writing posts from my mind. I’m talking crap again.
Till next time. When my mind is clear and my family is not in shambles.

my weird family
My family has so many issues. First of, my bro who has been unlucky in love. He has never had a girlfriend he became friends with after the break-up. All his relationships ended badly. Some with bruises and some with plenty of blood, sweat and tears. And I don’t mean that figuratively. Break-ups are ugly, I know. But it’s an understatement when it comes to my bro’s part.
Now my sister. If you’re a reader of this blog, you would notice that I’ve written about my sis more than a couple of times. But it was always about my overall distaste about her. But this time it’s different. To begin with, she has not been getting along with her husband for years now. They always fight about the big things and even the most trivial things. My sis is very hard to get along with. We pity her husband so much. He’s a good provider and a good person. But he’s a changed man. Living with my sister, he had somehow gotten some of her bad traits. He’s now cynical and would easily get angry and irritated with everyone and everything. It’s hard to write about this because it involves my nephew and nieces. SO…more again next post…

weeding out
Can you weed out relatives or fmaily? I know you can weed out friends. And I’ve done it with two of my friends. I actually rediscovered my diary the other day and the first entry for last year was about a friend who I thought was just using me. Well, maybe she was or maybe she was not but that was how I felt at the moment. Anyway, I haven’t talked to her for two years now. And I haven’t heard any news about her for quite some time now. I bet she has not heard about any from my side either. I miss her from time to time but I can’t face her just yet. Now, back to the question, can you weed out family because I sure want to.

day 4 of south beach
Are you on Facebook? Well, I am and a lot of my friends and relatives, too. And guess what, my sister is too. You should see her facebook. She has over 1000 friends and she doesn’t even know half or more than half of them. I swear. And you know how facebook goes, right? When you post photos, everyone in your network sees them. And this stupid sister of mine posted a photo that I told her not to post. But she did anyway. You wanna know why she did it? Because she looked good in it. Now how inconsiderate is that? She’s got a lot of good pics and she could have posted those. I asked her this one thing and look what she did. I don’t talk to her now. I’m still fuming mad. And through Facebook, she sends me smiles and hearts which I ignore.
Anyway, my sister looks good for her age. I mean, she’s turning 40 this year and she doesn’t look it. And I think, because of this, it has gotten into her tiny head. And she flaunts and brags about her look. That’s why I’m on this diet. I want to challenge her. She’ll see in a few more weeks that I could be thin and beautiful, too. This is WAR.
Breakfast: Chicken Ham Omelet w/ Cheese
