First serious update of 2010! So many things worth telling in 3 days!
My first day of this new year was mostly spent on doing the belated spring cleaning (shame on me!). Believe it or not, despite being helped by my Mom AND Grandma (they both are like Friends character Monica, so my messiness must come from my Dad's side, lol:P), I didn't finish and will have to set a day for round nº2. Washed most of my clothes, gave away the stuff I won't be using anymore, rearranged my drawers, put special hangers for my necklaces (don't have that much, but thought it was a good idea) in one of the doors of my wardrobe, made space to save my college notes and photocopies in a tidier way, swept, vacuumed, and all that jazz. Ended up dirty and exhausted, but pretty satisfied, and just when I thought it was going to be a normal day of housework, Sebastian called me saying he would be picking me up in 15 minutes to hang around a bit...so unexpected (specially because it was 11PM, and he doesn't live that close)! But this was the only surprise- he showed up with Maka, a friend of mine whom I haven't seen since my birthday (March 13th!That's a long time!). Roamed a bit, catched up, and headed to a coffee house, were we had some submarinos. And on top of that, I received an unexpected gift from Sebastian: Briefing for a Descent into Hell, by Doris Lessing. Haven't read anything by her before (have you?) and seems interesting, so it shall be fun^^. In conclussion, it was the best way to end the first day of the year, though slept only 3 hours because of the submarino I drank...maybe not my brightest idea^^'.
Woke up early yesterday and went to Dani's, so we would go together to the pilates center. Saw her first class (her Mom was her guinea pig too, in her case, for the beginners class) and then had mine. I felt good about myself because I knew all the exercises in spite of my pilates hiatus, and all in all had a great performance (I know, screw you, modesty! Hehe), though today my legs had been/are aching^^'. Dani got her teachers certificate, and to celebrate that, the three of us lunched at an Italian restaurant (yummy!). Then I went back home, only to take a shower, get changed and leave again, this time to meet Sebastian and see 2 expositions. Went to his house afterwards, dinned and watched Harry Potter and the Order of the Fenix, which none of us have seen before (Gary Oldman looking hot, yeah!).
And today I was supposed to gather up with Flor, but she cancelled on the last minute...again. We rescheduled for Tuesday, though that doesn't assure me I'll see her...even if she had a valid excuse, she's getting more and more unreliable to me...Anyway, I didn't want this to spoil my day, so I decided to go to my Dad's...he loves my spontaneous visits, and I arrived just in time get some pool time, so double win for me!
