things have been quite hectic the last few days with the face-to-face and all the post-meeting stuff that had to be taken cared of that there was never really any good time to write. its pretty cold in arizona right now at -2 deg celsius that in the first two day's i had a terrible cold which abated pretty quickly after taking tylenol cold multi-symptom. i still have been sniffling the past two days though but taking the tylenol cold (night) gave me a really great night's sleep. so i'm ready to do some shopping later on.
one of the great news for this week has been, i would say, an answered prayer. i received a call from jfc/rr around midnight three days ago informing me that they are going to set up a meeting. there's no formal offer yet of course and its still a risk, and before receiving this call, i was already leaning more on accepting the SG offer after much debate. now i am not so sure.
in my first week, i've managed to buy a few pieces of clothing that i really needed but i've been happily shopping clothes and shoes for my dear nephew. i just couldn't resist it, a lot of really great clothes for him. today, i'd start shopping for the fam. its a good and bad thing that i'm not in my best shape right now - good, because i'm not really too keen in buying bigger sized shirts right now, and bad, because i can't buy new clothes. Go figure.
last night, giz, larry and myself had dinner at oregano's. we ordered quite a handful, more than what the three of us could finish. oregano's is one of our favorite restaurants. great pizza. great salad. and a really awesome pizza cookie dessert topped with two scoops of vanilla bean ice cream. giz and larry have both been really great hosts during my stay here. they've really been taking good care of me and i'm so inspired by gizie's dedication to healthy living nowadays. its time i do the same when i get back - for now, i have to enjoy this trip.
lastly, annie (bless her heart) did such a wonderful thing for me this week that i am very very thankful for. grad school released a schedule to file for an application-to-graduate and all the due dates pretty much were impossible for me being here in the US. annie completed all of my requirements, even advanced the PHp2.2k payment so i can march during the graduation ceremony this coming march'08. Thank you Annie! And yes, i would have done the same thing for you!
