Finite Dreams

A girl in search of the meaning of life. I'm slowly finding my place in this thing called life.

Gym Story

For about a week now, I've been going to the gym almost every day. I alternate between my cardio workout and my weight training. I can do that because the gym is very close to our house and they have a lot of other branches within the city. Anyway, last Monday I got my program from my trainer. They assigned me to work with this girl who was probably about 2 years younger than me. We had a very interesting conversation while I was on the bike.

Trainer: Ilang taon na po ba kayo?
Me: 26 na ako.
Trainer: Naku, akala ko mas bata pa kayo. Married na po ba kayo?
Me: Nooooooo!!!!!!
Trainer: Parang napakalakas ng reaksyon niyo sa tanong ko. Wala po ba kayong bf?
Me: Wala 'no!
Trainer: Bakit po? May itsura naman kayo?
Me: Ewan ko, Takot ata ang mga lalaki sa akin eh! Lalo na sa dati kong work, malabo talagang may makakalapit sa akin. Besides nawalan na ako ng time.
Trainer: Mukha nga.
Me: Anyway, sabi ko na lang sa sarili ko, kung bibigyan ako ni God ng someone who will accept my as I am, then tatanggapin ko. Kung hindi naman, at peace na rin ako with the possibility na magiging old maid ako.
Trainer: Saan po ba kayo nag-aral?
Me: Ateneo.
Trainer: Kaya naman pala takot ang mga guys sa inyo eh! Ang taray naman pala ng school niyo!

Sigh……………
