sa pinas, i never went to the gym. unang-una, i'm not that interested in making buhat chuva. or making pawis. or making takbo. na may makakakitang tao sa akin. i never went to trial sessions 'cause i know i'd never enroll anyway.
pangalawa, di kalakihan ang sweldo ko. i only have enough to share sa house, to pay the bills. konting luho, ganun. sometimes, negative pa. so i never spent for something that i'm not really crazy about.
ikatlo, payat ako. i don't have a crazy appetite. kung mag engage pa ako sa too much cardio activities, baka lalong maging patpat ako. it's just my theory... what do i know about it? hehe.
my long-time dream and love is swimming... i thought a few laps a day would be good! i always wanted to swim but i never found the time to do so. there's a pool here just outside our door but i haven't tried because i don't have anybody to go and swim with me... and i'm not an all-by-myself person. hehe
this afternoon, kuya invited me to this gym near our office. he said i could bring my officemates along. the gym has this promo of $57 a month, no membership fee. i'm not interested but i went anyway. my officemates are interested. for less than P2k, i thought it's not that bad. kung di ko talga trip mag gym, stop. hehe
we saw the equipments, the classes are good, oh they also have a pool! a tennis court, the bathroom is great... in short, i was convinced to enroll. there were six of us: kuya + officemates. so manong gym instructor's eyes are now $$$$$$ hehehe... we all decided to sign in... signing the docs... manong jotted the amount to $1380. woah! where did that come from? whatever happened to $57? it turned out we had to pay for the 2 years but we could always get a refund in case we decide to terminate the contract. ah eh... red lights flashing. manong, we can't! mga bagong ofw pa lang kami and we can't afford to throw in that amount biglaan. manong's last bargain was... pay half and pay the next half after 2 months.
and then i thought... do i really want this? do i really need this? so he gave us until friday to think things over. baka naman mamaya, ningas kugon lang ako? haay... oh well, i could always go back to swimming. ;) malaman sa byernes.

don't fall into that 2year trap! if u can get away with not signing the contract and get that rate, mas maganda. usually ksi, even if they say you can opt-out of the contract, they'll charge you an early termination fee eh.
may pool kayo?! dats gud! eh di hindi na pala nating mag-beach kapag bibisitahin ko kayo ni Liza!
yeah... pero normal pool lang sya... hindi sya kagandahang pool haha. tuloy na ba? sabi ko kina mau, punta rin sila pagpunta mo dito ;)
ginawa daw bang parang "email" ang comments? ;-)
yoko munang magsalita at baka maudlot! hehe. I'll let you know once I set the date and get a ticket para sure-na-sure talaga. hopefully makapag-off din kayo nila Liza para makapag-bakasyon tayong lahat! (and hopefully yung curse of 3 sa Pinas lang nangyayari)
