i signed up for a Fitness First membership today!!! i finally decided that Php2K gym membership fee is worth it! (in economics jargon: … i decided that the opportunity cost of Php2K gym membership exceeds any other thing i can buy or spend on for the same amount!!! … hehe … i don’t know what i’m talking about … no wonder i’m flunking economics!!! ahhh … just had a nightmarish business economics midterms today! … i really don’t flunk anything … except maybe AGRETAX back in the day! ;=) hmmm … I digress … so there … I decided that Php2K is a small price to pay for a nice firm, toned body (haha … I really hope to God it’ll happen!).

I’ve been meaning to sign up for a fitness program for the longest time and I always have the best excuse: I’m busy! (And oh yeah … Cavite is too far away … from anything … that going for gym memberships … the nearest nice gyms of which is in Alabang … which is approximately 28kms away from where I live right now … — yup … I measured … with an odometer!!! – is just a waste of time and gas!) So why did I finally sign up? I guess I figured that I will never really have time … I have to make time for it! I have to make time for things that are important to me … and having a healthy (and don’t forget … nice!) body is important to me. I figured that I’ve been lugging these extra 30lbs for the longest time and it’s time to get rid of those mini life savers in my stomach and look good in jeans once and for all! (and oh yeah … reach over and actually touch my toes … without too much midsection strain!!!) I figured I’m not getting any younger (I’m 30, BTW … haha … as if I didn’t inform everyone enough of my age!) and if I want to change things in my life … now is the best time to start! (wow … too much insight again into a simple act of signing a gym membership contract!). I had this deep urge of reinventing myself! I want to enhance my life with more meaningful and worthwhile activities! I want to do something that makes good sense! Yes, gym membership isn’t exactly part of the meaningful and worthwhile activities that I long to do! But it’s a change within myself … and it’s a start! And I’ll go from there …
