extraordinary in the making.
22 April 2011
eh hi everyone! haha. it's been two months since my last post la.
and i haven't even started uni then.
now guess what, i'm already on my mid session break and after next week, i only have 5 weeks of classes to go. forever! (kinda, for now until i find smthg useful to do).
and then it's exams, graduation and boooom! scary huh? yeahhhhh.
anyway what have i been up to? i have been on a break from my trainings for about a month.
but now i'm back on track so it's day 3 and i will try to keep this up until i see abs or around august (whichever occurs first hehe.) it's all in the science la. seriously.
proper nutrition (and i mean proper i.e. regular eating every 3 hours, 5 meals a day, high in lean protein, moderate complex carbs, no refined sugar or processed foods including fast food and takeaways and the occassional treat once a week). pretty much all i mention here has a reason behind it. like why do we have to eat every 3 hrs and 5 times a day? to keep your metabolism high so it keeps burning off all those nasties. protein for muscle building (think abs!) and no processed foods for you know obvious reasons.
and then there's the exercise bit, pumping it up with a mix of cardio and resistance, strength and weight training and flexibility (i.e. yoga). see the thing is, you won't get abs only by running alone or jogging, or cycling or jumping on the rower or elliptical machine. weights, and i mean those really cool dumbbells you see lying around the male dominated part of the gym will be my best friend over the next few weeks.
then there's the proper rest bit and stress handling to keep your serotonin levels in control so you won't damage yourself over the long haul.
it's pretty amazing and i am so blessed to be able to study all this and know the science and mechanics behind losing weight, building muscle and maintaining them and you know what, i shall apply it all to myself and make me extraordinary. oh yeah. :)
uni uni uni has been good so far! yup, i mean i'm only doing two subjects anyway. my fitness course at tafe is also good. i kinda let it slip a little over the past couple of weeks but i regained and am in control.
work has been good! so i was asked for the third time over my 5 years in starbucks whether i wanna become a supervisor but this time i think my boss is very persistent in promoting me only cause it'll look good on her, me being her guinea pig, and i am the only one in the store with that much experience la. we shall see though. it's a good thing, but i dunno if it'll fit into my short term goals. we'll see. :)
alright that's pretty much it for now. oh and i am going scuba diving for the first time ever in 4 days! woooohoooo!!

story of my life
25 February 2011
HELLO MY LOVERS!
feels like i haven't been here in ages!
sorry la geng, been busy like hell. i've been working at minimum 5-6 shifts a week and on my day off the last thing on my mind is to go online or blog and what not la. i haven't even paid much attention to facebook nor twitter. in a way it's a good thing, i mean seriously being on those sites a lot is not a great thing no? but then again i miss you all la! grrrrr.
anyway, i am working again today (ergh.) but later at 3pm so i roughly have 3 hours to pay you my attention hehe.
so what's been up sweeties? my life has been same old same old. i'm studying a cert 3 in fitness right so i've been hitting the books once in a while, studying gamsat, going to work, saving money, finishing up my last 20 days of p90x (can you believe it!?), eating properly and trying to catch up on sleep whenever i can. damn it's a mouthful huh. yeah story of my life.
i start uni next week, hurrah! final semester bitches and then i'm off as a full fledged working adult ha ha ha. okay maybe not. so starting next week i will be exponentially more busy then i already am, which kinda sucks but at the very least, time flies and it keeps me busy.
if you're wondering, take a stab into my thursdays. and i wonder where i get all the energy from.
4.30am - rise and shine
5am - make lunch, snacks and have brekky
5.30am - train to the city
6.30am - work
2.30pm - finish work, have lunch
4pm - gym (or uni starting next week)
5.30pm - night classes
9pm - night class end, dinner
10.30pm - home.
i normally have saturdays off so that day is dedicated to me, myself and i so it's cool. ahhhh penat lah sehhh.
okay la itu aje. take care of yourselves my beautiful angels. eat healthy and try to stay away from the bad bad stuffs. go for a run every now and then, keep smiling and keep your head up. we'll talk soon. :)

what is it love, what's on your mind?
what is it that you worry about?
let it go, set it free, better days will come and then you'll see.
aah i wish i can describe the deepest feelings in my heart but no words can do the job quite so successfully. it's like i try not to think about it but it still comes and visit me all the time and sub consciously i do. it gets really annoying esp when it starts eating up to my sleeping patterns and stuffs but yes, it's been a while since i feel well rested and there's nothing more in this world right now that i want but good quality rest.
what am i talking about? i have no idea. just a sub conscious thought/feeling/emotion. strange huh. i think need to sleep.
in other news, uni begins in one month exactly. wow 3 months has definitely passed on really quickly and so many things happened it's insane. this will be my last semester so i think i'm gonna make it quite simple for myself - just finish this god damn degree can? :)
i've been working quite a lot i tell you, usually 5 or 6 days a week. i am not complaining, every cent i get from work goes to my epic holiday fund, bills bills bills and some nice food, movies and what not here and there. it is physically tiring though and gets mundane and boring especially cos i have a very short attention span heh. but oh well, work is work and gotta live through it no.
my training been's awesome, haven't missed a day no matter how shitty i feel so that feels super good. i am halfway there, literally i think i have 45 more days to go! i'm def seeing results although it is not as desirable as i wished for prob cause i haven't been resting properly and those sweet stuffs i've been consuming is highly dangerous. but still results. results. results.
anyhoo, that's my life in a nutshell.
have a pretty rocking one my loves.
xoxox.
and i shall...
