From 170 to 161

Before the shopping spree began last night, Boyette, Nikks and I heard mass at Greenbelt chapel. According to the American priest, before coming over here, he thought praying the rosary was sumpthin repetitive and boring. That totally changed. He was amazed as to how people here give importance to Mama Mary.

He also devised a cool way to make it more exciting. He thinks not of himself when he prays the rosary. Instead, he prays for 60 different people for each 60 beads. He starts off by praying for the pope, archbishop, church, etc. And then, the first mystery goes to 10 family members or relatives. The next 10 is for friends. Middle 10 goes to his enemies. He made a joke that if we couldn't think of 10 enemies then we have no right to be inside the church. Next 10 goes to people we work with. And the last batch goes to souls in the purgatory. We should never forget the ones who just entered, those who have been there for the longest time, and lastly, the one that nobody is praying for.

Boyette went shopping for neckties (TieLine offers half the price of the next tie purchase), long sleeves, and pants. I also suggested that he buys ChapStick. He and Bimboy are leaving for Virginia this Wednesday.

While we're inside Mercury Drug. Nikks saw an automated scale that also checks your blood pressure and fat index. She tried it first. Then it's my turn. I was a bit scared to know my current weight. Haven't visited the gym ever since I moved back to Bulacan. But the scale was very nice to me. I now weigh 161 pounds from 170 almost 2 months ago. Wow!!!

We had dinner at Dulcinea with Table. We ordered some salpicao (the best is still at IO's), fish fillet with mussels and shrimps, seafood sumpthin, a plate of chorizo, and churros for a shared dessert.

Afterwards, we watched "You, Me and Dupree" as per Boyette's suggestion.
