A double dose of Will Smith

I loved the movie so much I went and watched it twice. Though Will Smith was not in his usual hottie mode in the movie, I kind of see myself as a twenty-something person afraid to be in love because of the what happened in the past. I don't know. Maybe I'm just saying this now because I'm not in the mood to look for another serious relationship so soon after one walked out on me. But I wouldn't be surprised if I'd turn into this bitter old career woman who doesn't have time for love or dating because any time away from work and friends are just a waste.

I'm so bitter I can't keep a straight face.

I'm lying of course.

Mark from Friendster had asked one of his mates to call me yesterday. I didn't get his friend's name but we talked for a good half an hour. Mark had been calling me for a couple of weeks now and I always seem to miss his calls. I'm not doing it on purpose. I'm always at work or at Uni or at the gym or out walking along the beach with Bernie or at Tae Kwon Do class or dead asleep.

That's what I do. That's how I live my life.

Anyway, his friend and I got to talk and it was surprisingly smooth. He is well-travelled. Apparently, he travelled Europe for seven years and he just got back from Spain. I was a bit impressed about the bit of information but I'm not basing my judgement just on that. Plus the fact that we only spoke just the one time. Also the fact that Mark was supposed to be the one calling me and talking to me, but I ended up having a really nice conversation with his mate instead. How weird is that?

They're down in Hobart right now but they are planning to come up in June for winter holidays. They wanted to meet up with me and just basically show them around the Coast and Brisbane. I said yes. Bit my lip and went to Dimples for help. I don't even know these guys. I don't usually do these kinds of things. I usually check them out first and just basically start from there.

I suppose I can just ditch them if they're not hot enough or something but that's being a royal bitch and I'm not the one to play that part anymore.

She agreed to come with me when I meet up with them. Good 'ol her. Reliable at all times.

I've lost three kilos in a week. Hurrah! I was so happy I celebrated by pigging out on popcorn in the movies last week. That was just a minor setback. I'm doing forty minutes of cardio every day. I feel good and my skin looks good too. It's being exposed under the sun and it's healthier looking. A downfall though, I'm tan. I hated it. But at least now, it's a pleasure to look at me - at least that's what Mum and Uncle Lucio said.

Dimples and I made a pact that we'll buy a dress one size smaller and we'll work on getting that dress to fit us by May. Then we'll reward ourselves by going to a spa, have a massage and facials. I'm so excited about losing weight I can see myself riding the waves of Surfers Paradise. I'm so keen to surf. It's like my Everest.

Two more kilos Nikki. Two more kilos...
