"Half a Year Gone.."

sighz...before u know it..half of the year is alreadi GoNe! for those of u STILL unaware of this, pls go check ur calendar. Or at least get out of ur bed. Aniwaez..today i went for a jog! woo hoo! six rounds! woo hoo..! and the fact that i ran non-stop (err..except for that one metre and a half walk to get back my composure) for six rounds..is a celebration in all! i love it when i pushed myself and got there in one piece. U know what..I can't reallie see the difference..but i can feel the difference when i wear clothes like I don't feel so 'bulky' like I used to. so in the last month..I er..spent quite a bit on new clothes and I don't feel so 'shy' leh..hehe..Oh, and this is the best parts..on total counts more than 5 people remarked that I looked like I have lost some weight...it's T.R.U.E.!! Last time, to hear people say that..(like maybe one or two persons out of the 4.2million population in Singapore) is onlie because e person was just being nice..but u should see the look on them after that..like..'hrmph..maybe not'..haha..then, of course i faked it say no lah..i looked just the same just to test their reaction and they were like..'reallie!' or 'dont bluff'..or 'sure or not?'..haha..! I love that! but seriously, i can't see any difference except that I DID lose some weight though the progress has been very very seriously slow to lose 6 kg. Where are all the slimming treatment sponsorships when U need one?!!

Man..two more months before my bdae and dunno if I can lose 6 kg within that short a period. Okay...let me see..at least 2 and a half to 3 more if possible. So..i have to increase my exercise and eat less fried food and chocolates. Though I have been eating lesser..maybe reduce like a teeny weeny bit? haha..yes, I still lurvveeee food. But like what mcdonalds say...'energy in=energy out".

I am going to be more disciplined this time round like say..chocos once a week and uhm..chicken wrap on a stick once a week onlie. You know..there was this one time I totally miss this food that I had it almost everyday! Gasp..! Then reality sank in when I saw I gained back the 0.5kg which I took so much effort to lose. In the end..I resorted back to my old plan of eating a major meal onlie once a day and fried stuff a.k.a. Old Chang Kee....once a week. And I lost back that 0.5kg for good..heh heh..

I tell ya it's not an easy battle..and there are times when I see the threadmill as a torture chamber when I tried to push myself to do a jog for at least 25 minutes to 30 minutes. That followed by a whole body workout on this machine that required to go up and down like a 'stepper' for 20 to 25 minutes. I would sweat like a pig and look all radiant..coz of all the shine from the sweat. And yes..after seeing how I sweat..all the extra calories..it felt good. Okay..maybe thanks to my flexible schedule that allows me to go back office after working outside office. Though I had to be out of the office after 6.30pm even after claiming half an hour time off to do workout..and then later having to be squeezed by the train commuters, it's all done for my own good. So much so...it has been 3 months alreadi since the last time I stepped into the gym. what great effort, gal! And now..I have to renew my gym membership...otherwise I'll be illegal..haha..

One Step at A Time

Hello there It has been a while, right? I used to treat this blog as a place for me to rant, talk about nonsensical things and interests that, when I think back about it, were pretty cringeworthy. But it was part of the process of me growing up and navigating through my life which is full of ups and downs, just like the tidal waves. I still need a form of outlet to write out my thoughts and I have been journaling for the last few years. At first, I was still writing nonsense, or simply writing about how my day went, but I try to make it a more conscious journalling where I will write about things that I can take lessons from or to reflect on. So how has life been for me? Well, I no longer am running an online shop where I used to do customised cards and then just specializing in box cards. I do want to have an online business, preferably one I don't have to travel to meet people.  If you read my last post about being zen, I think I have 'tripled' the amount of zen inside of...

Listen to Me

It kinda irks me when I am trying to express an opinion or sharing a piece of knowledge but it's met with strong objection or Im being cut half way before I even finished. I mean...come on...does it hurt to actually listen first, doesnt matter if u agree or not? Yes I know everyone is entitled to their own opinions but it's frustrating because I feel like a sore loser. That sort of conversation is actually begging to be turned into some huge argument if I am equally annoying and equally strong headed as well. But I dont want to do that especially if they are my friends. Then again, I am subjected to being called a wimp or somebody who cant stand up strong against what she believes in or her own opinions. That will sorta give the person a sense of pride for getting a landslide victory. At first I used to think that hey, maybe the person has a point and I am wrong. But come to think of it, that's bull! It's one thing not to argue and another thing to let ur own opinions b...

Not Gone from Good

Life hasn't been good lately especially in the last two weeks. The latest news is that it seems that almost everyone has an increase in their pay due to changes in the civil servant wage scale and very unfortunately, my group didn't get it. So my boss, whose post is that of a manager and the operations manager, have quite a significant salary rise.  I heard she got a 10% pay rise. 10%!!! look, even the attendants got a pay rise. What we got? nada! zilch! Why? Because apparently our salary is of a competitive range. Sigh, such is the unfairness of life. I'm already struggling as it is and then apparently now, the rich has become richer. The poor remains nothing but a destitute mess. So I guess the only chance for a pay rise is for me to be promoted and though I do not know how much pay rise will that be, at least it is going to be slightly better. The problem is that I have no clue when I will get promoted. I am not one of those people with many super ideas that will great...
