Life’s Lessons

Plans to go out for a brisk walk during early mornings is epic fail. Since last week my body clock had a drastic change. If I sleep before midnight before, now I can’t sleep until the clock strikes 2AM. How can I get up early for a walk if I sleep at 2AM? Before that morning walk become a reality, I need to set my body clock back to normal. Hence, starting next week I should be in bed before midnight.

One most convenient way to get fit is to get an exercise equipment so I could force myself to step into it anytime of the day. If there’s a great deal of used gym equipment I could find, why not?! I like the stationary bike that I saw at a surplus store the last time we visited. As long as it will not occupy a lot of space and we can use if for its purpose, I’d go for it. But since we are moving with my sister and her family in one house, there’ll be no space for an exercise equipment so I’d find another way to “force” me to sweat out daily. Hope I would be a morning person soon so I and Ace could do a morning walk in the neighborhood. It’s not that convenient for brisk walking because the roads are not paved but I hope we could find time to just have a morning walk even for a short period. I badly need that to make me more productive daily.

Getting a haircut is not a regular thing for me to do. I just have my hair done when I am in the mood to go to the salon. Lately, I noticed my hair is growing faster than before so I went to Hair Studio in SM City late last month. I’ve been in that salon more than a couple of times but I failed to note who is my hairdresser during those times so the lady at the reception assigned somebody to do my hair.

After a lady washed my hair, I was ushered to a seat. Then a few minutes later, a gay hairdresser (based on the receipt, he is Nilo) approached and asked how would I want to cut my hair, straight or not? I told him I only want a trim of my layered cut to a desired length to remove the fly-away ends and retain its body. I am not wearing one-length hair for years and I already forgot how do I look with a with it so I still preferred my layered cut.

He combed my hair, got his scissors, cut my hair as fast as he can and in less than five minutes he’s done! That fast?! He told me it’s done and walked away. What on earth…?! When I stood from my seat and walked to the cashier, Ace was surprised to see me. He wasn’t bored sitting there yet and I am done? I was not satisfied with the cut, much more the service of the hairdresser. And when I paid the cashier, he’s there as if waiting for a tip. Lucky him I am in good mood that time so I gave him fifty pesos. He said “thank you” without even smiling and looking at me. Now I need another trim since last month’s trim was not short enough to last me more than a quarter before another visit to the salon. The ends are flying away and I so loathe it. Now I am undecided if I should go back to Hair Studio or not. If I’ll have my hair trimmed there, I will surely demand the receptionist to give me other hairdresser, and not NILO.  I need a good hairdresser.
