marriage is the new green.
spring is here. it's about freaking time (thank you nor'easter). you know what that means... weddings weddings weddings. i have two weddings to attend this month. and a third wedding that i know about and am not invited to. exes. go figure.
out of all the boyfriends or people i've dated and kept in touch with, at least 2 of them are married. considering the ratio, that's not very many people. still, one of these two (the 3rd wedding i was not invited to), i was his girlfriend for 13 months. that's my longest relationship by far. it's still strange to me that people i have once considered marrying are married themselves. actually, this newly married dude is having a kid in july. the last i've heard, it's a boy.
i hope they name it marlolito.
many of my friends have gotten hitched pretty early (that's before the age of 24.31 in my book). props to all of those people who are so sure of meeting their soulmate. you are all waaaaayy more committed people than i ever was or will be.
according to my grandma, i have a few rules i'm supposed to follow in order to make her happy. here goes:
thank you,

- marry a white man ("whites and filipinas make pretty babies")
- marry a catholic man ("so he can go to church with you")
- marry someone who buys you presents ("so you know he's always thinking of you")
- marry when you're 28 ("unless he's rich and white, then marry him now and start making me pretty babies")
thank you,

the biggest loser.
i know, i know. if i were in the blogging olympics, i'd finish dead last in the 100 m butterfly. i don't even know how to swim!
speaking of sports, i joined a new gym with a wide variety of classes. monday is pilates, tuesday is hip hop funk, wednesday is cardio boxing, and saturday is belly dancing. my favorite class is belly dancing. i have to go all the way to harlem to take this class, but that's okay because allen lives around there.
speaking of allen, he heard back from the grad schools he applied to. he got into the international studies masters program at johns hopkins and the public affairs masters program at columbia. i am very proud of him. he decided to go to johns hopkins in DC. however this time, i am not moving away from my significant other. he is moving away from me. wahh wahhhhhhh... ¶ 7:15 PM 0 comments

more traveling.
greetings from japan! it's already april, and this is the first work trip i've been on in 2007. oh well, i'll try to enjoy my platinum status while it lasts. who needs visiting? :)
kyle and i were comparing visiting states and countries maps. lessons learned: i need to travel to south america, africa and eastern europe. who's with me?
states i've been to not including drive throughs, lunches, pit stops or layovers:
