A message from a friend inspired me to create this blog. For years now, since I started medical school, I have no reason to shape up. I gave up my social life for books. I rarely go out on holidays and vacations. And I turn to food when stress pushes me down. Then suddenly, as I mentioned earlier, a message from an old friend, she's getting married next summer. It's going to be an intimate wedding, Greek-inspired, with flowing Greek gowns. Then I looked at myself. There's no way I can rock a Greek goddess gown in this body.
But aside from the Greek goddess wedding theme, her message also struck a sensitive chord. Like I said, ever since medschool, I let myself go. I stopped my physical activities, I binge eat when stressed. My weight seem to yo-yo every year.
In college, we used to be roommates. And it was during the time that we lived together was I on my kikay-est. Maybe it's time to bring the kikay back.
And since she's my inspiration to a project that I know only she can help me with, might as well introduce the bride-to-be. My good friend, Marjorie. But the two of us are only two-thirds of a legendary Maayusin Street triumvirate, the other one is Donna (no FB account).
We were all set to become doctors but destiny would make them nurses and only I went on to medical school. But that's that. No point in dwelling on that. More on our friendship soon. But here's our 'latest' picture, taken during the last time we were together in 2010.
