you'd think by now i'd learn that when i write an entry i should always copy it before i hit "done!" because it doesn't always go through. especially if my network has been acting up these past few days, which it has. needless to say, i wrote an entire entry earlier and hit done and all of a sudden had nothing. arg. that'll teach me.

basically i was elated that i now have 20 pages of my thesis done. only 15 to go. my goal is to have 30 pages done by wednesday before i go to bed. that leaves me with all of thursday and friday morning to finish the remaining 5 pages. i think that's do-able. it means only 3 pages a day for three days (yes, i know, i'd have one left over). anyway, i think it'll get done. it has to get done in fact. i will get done.

i need to make an appointment at vip for a massage on saturday. i'm going to need it after all this thesis crap. and cube wants to go with me. i'm actually thinking of getting some kind of package with a massage and a manicure/pedicure and perhaps a facial. they have premade packages already, and i kinda like two, but neither is exactly what i want. here's the two:

executive spa day ($180)
aromatherapy hot stone massage
aromatherapy body wrap
spa pedicure
spa manicure
shampoo, cut, and style

ultimate spa day ($240)
essential body wrap
60 minute relaxation massage
scalp treatment with style
spa pedicure
facial with makeup application

ok, in the executive, i dont know if i'd enjoy the hot stone things... someone told me the hot stones are bad, lol. and i dont want them to cut my hair, and i really wouldn't need them to shampoo it either. in the ultimate, i wouldn't want makeup application after they just gave me a facial. and i would definitely want to add a spa manicure (the difference between a manicure and spa manicure is the extensity of the massage. in a regular manicure, they massage your hand, but in the spa manicure they massage your whole arm. plus, with only the things i want, they'd pretty much be the same, but i dont want to pay the ultimate's price if i'm going to be getting what's in a modified executive package. i'll definitely have to call and ask. this shall be my mission. i also need to find out what cube wants so i can book him an appointment too. and jane, loli and loli's friend from home, jaime, all want to go too - but i have no clue what they want, so they can make their own appointments. lol.

and speaking of needing a massage. i had a super intense workout today. coach told us about "super sets" today and i decided to try it out, haha. basically the jist is that if you bench press 150 pounds and the last few reps in your set are really tough and by the last rep you're spent, then you are usually done. BUT with a super set, you then decrease the weight, so like 130 pounds, and you do it again! and you keep going down in weight and your muscles keep getting weaker, and then eventually you're muscles are spent at the least possible weight you can do on the machine (our machines only go down to 20 pounds). so yeah, i did that on the incline press (like a bench press except you're in a lounging position instead of laying flat). hot damn. in fact, that deserves two hot damns. haha. that was tough! i didnt think there was any way my muscles would be giving out at only 20 pounds, but hot damn... they did. it was indeed a super workout. haha.

anyway, i should get back to writing... or something. i want to have 23 pages before i go to bed.
