Oh wow, it's wrong to be reading this at 3:30am when there's nothing to eat in the house. I wouldn't know how to choose! Everything sounds so tasty!

Avril said...

Addicting ng internet kasi! :-P I lost track of time but went to sleep soon after writing that post. :)

I'm glad you're back, Jon! Missed you! Did you see the sun?

Yummy Yummy Yummy I want some....Now!!!

How are you my friend?
Guess what, I bought a surf board!!

Unknown said...

M!!! You bought your own surf board!?! I want one too... but now that I'm back in UP, I don't think I'll have enough dosh to splurge on that, hehehe... saving up for the advanced anatomy with Neil this December.

Avril said...

If you're really interested in a board, I'm thinking of selling mine. Watercooled epoxy 8'4" used only 3x. I'm open to installments. Let me know if you want to discuss it. ;-) see you Saturday!

Unknown said...

Avril! You surf as well? Cool! Yoga and surfing na lang tayo next time, hehehe. Have no clue ready of the details that you gave me but would love to have my own board... though once pa lang ako nakapag-surf, hehehe.

Avril said...

Tara! When I get back, let's go. ;-) I usually had help getting pushed into the wave, but that was more than a year ago, before all the Chaturangas. hehe I'm sure kaya na the paddling now.

yamayoga said...

yes it was a bit of a splurge.... I am hoping to go to YT in January, for Tewari, and if I can manage it financially, for Neils anaotmy also.....but we'll see
I am also hoping to set up a surf/yooga wekend in the west of Ireland in conjunction with the surf school I've been learning in... not until september, but hopefully it will work out!! My new venture!!
