Hyped and Energized

Hello,

It is the last day of our short 3 days holiday. It's about 5pm and I haven't even showered. Hehe. It's good to be lazy sometimes. There are days when you have to keep your mind on idle mode. It helps you get ready for the next week's hurdles.

The holiday has been good. Went to Miri to get some durians, which I have been craving for, for weeks and managed to hit the gym yesterday and hung out with some friends. Meanwhile, my mail is flooded with mails which I reckon I have to entertain by next week. Work can wait. I'm having a great time being a lazy bum today. I was contemplating to go to the gym again today to do some arms training. If I workout today I might just not be able to do my circuit efficiently tomorrow. So I decided to save it for tomorrow. I look forward to the Monday circuits now, which I am myself surprised. Ever since the new guys entered the work place I'm hyped with keeping fit and what-not. Which is a good thing. It has been awhile. I like the drive that they have especially Hazel, she makes me wana work out everyday. She does Muay Thai, which I think is really cool. Each and everyone of us have our own goal, this includes Steph. We were lazy bums and we would work out only like ones a month, so sucks, really. But now we are trying to make it as consistent as possible, by going back to circuit and have our own HLP every Wednesday. It has been good, on top of the sessions mentioned, I've been going to the gym just to refresh back what I was thought before. I did forget some of the routines but I reckon if I keep on doing it I'll get the hang of it.

AND, not only that just today I have enrolled myself for the TelBru's Lets Extreme. Yeap we have these things in Brunei and I'll be doing it with Steph. I'm very excited about it. There will be a fitness test prior to the competition, it'll suck if we fail though. Hence, the strength training. It'll be nice if I can pair up with a dude. Non of my guy friends are up for it. It is either they are not interested, they'll be going on a vacation or they have to work. Oh well, nevermind, I'm gona just do it for fun and there are days when I actually wonder if Steph is actually a guy in a girl's body. So it's fine.

I have been watching my food these days. I've asked around and have been reading some stuff from the net about gaining weight and toning up the right way. It all boils down to eating clean. So I've been cutting down on the oil, sugar and salt. Feeding on tubers, carbs and protein. I'm not too sure how long I can stand having just salmon head with steam rice or chicken with steam rice every lunch time, I guess I just have to do it as long as I have to. No guts no glory I keep on telling myself.
I was quite active sometime ago, but never really watched my food. So I would still have flabs on certain areas of my body, like my tummy and my arms. I was told to watch my food but I didn't listen, but now it got me thinking. Working out 3 -4 times a week is tiring and you do not wana put all that effort to waste right?

I got new gears last night. Heheh. A motivation to work out even harder. Yippee. So semangat. Hopefully this will last. Seriously. I can be a super lazy ass sometime. Very Sucky at the same time.

I came across a website and I think it's quite neat.

In case some of you are trying to start doing weight trainings on your own,  I suggest it's good to know a few things before hand. I wana get a girl trainer, I find it awkward to have a guy teaching me weight lifting especially if I don't know the person that well. Most of my lady friends, NON i mean, non of them does proper weight lifting. Hmm..so sad. Forever alone.

A guy friend owns a gym, been going there lately. But then again, it's hard to get hold of him even to just have coffee, let alone have him to TRAIN me. I reckon I would still be embarrassed though if I were to have him teaching me. Hehehe. Oh well. Nevermind, I was thought how to do this before so I'm sure with enough revision I'll manage.

I did legs training yesterday with the sister. My sister is strong! She's actually stronger than I am, than most girls I know. Gila kaliee. She made me feel a little bit intimidated for a second there.  I think this is because she has bigger build than I do. She can do 40kgs weighted deep squats as easy as 8 reps effortlessly. I had to really put my mind into it until my face turned red. Impressive I may say. Proud of her.

I'm thinking of getting some supplements to enhance muscle growth. Been reading some stuff online and getting different opinions from friends and family and truth be told I got confused with all the information given. I'm thinking of getting a BCAA (Branched Chain Amino Acid) but with my training intensity I'm not too sure if I should. I might just not need it. And if I actually do, which one? If you didn't know there are actually alot of them, from different brands and they come in different forms. I think I need to do more reading. Maybe I'll get one after I have finished my super pump. Never thought I would actually finish it. Heheh.

Might be doing some hiking next week. I can't wait. It has been awhile since I went for one. I'm loving the energy that the girls have at the office. I'm no longer a sloth. Yeay. Today will be my 7th day of healthy eating. Cheat day was on Friday, I had lots and lots of durian. So yummy. And Mc Donalds, my gosh so fatty. But it was good. The guilt was there, but it was good. I'm gona give myself til end of December, lets just see if something good will come out of this. Maybe bigger toned arms, oh how I wish. Flatter tummy, bigger sexy legs, I want very many. Who knows, maybe 8 reps of pull ups non stop. Teehee.

I had my legs measured today and my waist. I am now 21 cm on the thighs (bigger than mom's, yeay) and 27 cm on my waist. I was ever 19 on my thighs and 25 on my waist, I was scrawny. So gross so ugly. My weight was like 45kg? People started thinking I was an anorexic. Not gona go there again. Ever. I have learned to appreciate ideal weight range and that strong is the new skinny. :)

So I guess that's that. I think I've poured more than a handful of information about keeping fit. Probably some pictures to get you more hyped and happening about keeping fit just like we all are. At the moment.

Til then, adios.

Treat others the way you wanabe treated

Good evening folks!

How is everybody doing?

I have been utilizing my days to its fullest. Pretty hectic I may say, but manageable. Installation of exhibition is done and I'm impressed with how it turned out to be. I've gone back to doing circuits. It's awesome as usual. I think I've gained some weight too. Which is a good thing, I think.  Been binging these past few days. I reckon I'm gona have my period soon.

I have this aim of trying to gain some pounds. I was told to eat like crazy and after I have reached a certain weight I have to tone myself up. Currently working on it. Sigh. Nothing comes easy. Gona enroll myself for Muay Thai classes soon. I hope. Can't wait.

I paid a visit to a lady friend. And when I say friend, it's not like me and my friend friend, it's a different friend. I promised to pay her a visit sometime ago and just today I actually managed to go and see her. I miss her cooking. She's a really good cook. We sorta had a lunch date at her place today and it was actually good to be able to eat her cooking again after a really long time. She made me like 6 different dishes. Yeap! SIX! Even my mom doesn't cook as much for me and my siblings. She was anticipating my presence and I thought it was really sweet. How do I know this? Cause the table was properly set when I arrived. I was a little bit touched. :)

We had a good chat. On top of the good lunch she made me chocolate cake. I've always liked her chocolate mud cake and she actually took her time to make one just for me to 'tapau' home. :') Sweet lady she is. AND... when I was just about to leave, she showed me her orchids and out of the blue she plugged some of the orchids and gave them to me. I have it hanging up side down at my dresser right now. I guess all that's left to do now is wait for it to turn into potpourri. Hehe.

After what happened, she still treats me the way she treated me before. I'm quite happy that things didn't change between me and her. I'll prolly pay her a visit again someday.

Nyum

Well, Hello Baby Alai. Long Time No See.

I wana have tummy like this and a belly button ring. Perhaps someday.

PS: Hmm.. I think I missy miss.

 I wonder if I'll ever see you again.

Everybody Leaves

I'm feeling abit out of place these past few days. Dysfunctional I may say. Not to mention over the top pessimistic. The more I wana get rid of my what-if's virus the more "what-ifs" I get. Just today three different people said I'm being pessimistic.

I reckon I've been let down too many times, hence the negativity.

I have quite a number of things running through my head. There are things that do not go my way and it bothers me. I wana question why. But then again the good side of me keeps on saying that God is testing me and he has better plans. And when something doesn't turn out the way you want it to be, it basically means one thing, find other ways to do it or try harder.

I managed to successfully bring in the new exhibition. Again from Australia, way ahead of schedule. I reckon I would be a good project engineer. I have my science communicators now. That means I have 5 permanent staff under me. And mind you, these people are Degree Graduates! You see, I like having the degree graduates to work with. So far they are enthusiastic, knowledgeable and efficient. The problem currently is, I'm a fresh graduate myself. My degree certificate is only 2 years old. So I'm still not quite comfortable with bossing them around. Well, I do not really boss people around. I think. You get what I mean. Still trying to compose myself everytime I call them for a meeting. I know what I want. As a leader you should always know what you want. So two things I have to look into here. One is the development of the workplace. Two is the development of my staff. And I am currently trying to develop myself too and sad to say,  I kinda have to do it on my own. There are other couple of things that I wana do. For instance develop new educational programs, new games, get new puzzles but there are times when I think, OMG am I raising the stake too high? Cause I might just fall head first and die. Negativity. You see what I mean? Although, deep in my heart, I know I can do it as long as I work for it. Usaha Tangga Kejayaan my friend says.

New exhibition means another launching ceremony. I've managed to delegate the work to the new staff. Hopefully everything will fall into place efficiently. And everything would go the way I want it to be. Heheh. Currently I'm the acting head, so I make any decision that I want, if only it's like that all the way. Oh well.

On top of that I need to conduct a workshop for them on how to do a proper science show. Oh my dear Lord, how this?? It's not a must. But I figured I should. Cause the whole point of going for the KL trip was this and it would be super selfish of me if I do not pass on the knowledge. It would be a good development for them as well.

I think I've been blabbing too much about work.I reckon I should stop.

Other than work, there's another thing that's bothering me. Its about my Master application. Apparently, they have not process the in service's applications and I have no idea why.So I'm currently waiting for the result. I do not like waiting especially this type of wait. It makes me lose focus hence I keep on messing things up for example I forget things easily. My brother gave me a lecture of about getting myself ready for the whole thing. Going back to school and what not. I told him that I do not wana do that cause I don't wana go through the trouble of getting myself excited but in the end I get a solid rejection on the face by a paper. If I do get it, it would be a good self development process. I suppose there's nothing much I can do but wait.

I'll be having alot of things to look forward to these coming few weeks. The o-levels is just around the corner.Have to give the kids extra work.That's another thing that I need to really put my mind into.

Come to think of it, I am utilizing my life to it's fullest. Not bad ey. I do wana become a better person. I guess I'm going towards the right direction. There might be some hiccups here and there. But that is just how life is, yes?

My eyes are getting kinda heavy. I need to turn in soon. It's my day off tomorrow, however I need to be up early. My car is done, will be picking it up tomorrow. Happy Me. I miss it alot.

Last words for tonight.

I kinda miss you. It's weird but it's true.Oh well. All the best to you. Hmm..too bad I can't say this to you.

Everybody Leaves. It's an ugly truth. Face it.

Good night everyone.
