Our activities

Josh and i spend 24/7 with each other, and fortunately we are not yet getting sick of each other's company nor is he killing me with boredom. We are easily-amused people and were self-sufficient in entertaining each other for the first few weeks. Then we realized we wanted to do more activities other than staring at each other's eyes and flatter each other, so we think of things we can do together. Some of the fun activities that we do together that makes us the most exciting couple around... we love to watch CSI together (we have cable TV and i don't know why whenever we want to watch TV CSI is the one airing) and other detective shows, and while watching TV (gets boring sometimes) i will pull out a big book titled 1ooo puzzles and try to solve one puzzle, Josh being a nerd will of course join me and spend hours discussing and solving puzzles. We got bored with puzzles and decided to buy a new engaging game, and what can be a more exciting game than scrabble and chess. I love scrabble and i always beat josh in it... not that i know more english words than him but i know the game strategies better than him. And well josh will always beat me in chess, once i almost got him but i got so tensed that i loose my concentration... josh said i can be very competitive sometimes. Then we also love to go to movies, we are on our 5th movie together since we became couple.
Also I love to cook, and josh loves to eat what i prepared which is so awesome! I think we have the same taste since 98% of the dish i made (some from recipe books and others that i just made up) he will happy eat and i always get compliments. But sometimes i can't cook because i'm just lazy, tired or we run out of food to cook, so one enjoyable thing we do in this situation is is to dine out. We sampled almost all the possible restaurants and fastfoods near our area (yes that's how many times i got lazy, tired and run out of supplies). The past week we fancied Japanese cuisine, and previous to that Korean foods (we are patron of this Korean resto which is owned by some Christian Koreans). Then since we love to eat out, extra calories are stucked in our body so that leads us to another interesting activities, work out 3 times a week. Josh and I also swim (our condo has swiming pool so it is so convenient to go swimming) but these summer (march-may is Philippines summer season) we weren't able to swim a lot since the pool is always full of children, so full it is really hard to do laps.


Other worthwhile activities:


Josh has signed up at our church to do ministry. When he told our pastor that he wants to help the church ministry it took Pastor Joey just minutes to think of the list of ministries that he will turn over to Josh (we just so trilled that he can unload for awhile). Our desire is to really be used in the ministry so we happily committed ourselves to the following:

First, Josh teaches several pastors and church leaders one BEE Class. The course is Bible Study Methods. The class is very dynamic and his students are so actively participating.

Second is the Youth service in our church. He teaches in the youth service and helped giving structure to the program. I helped him in facilitating the games and translating for him when the youth seems not to get him.

The last one is the Young Professionals Small group meeting. It is held here in our house so i have a chance to play a hostess.
