it was so fun to play badminton, run on the treadmill and trying out all the different machines.

Fats

I kept complaining the fact that I am tired everyday despite exercising. Hmm.. exercising is supposed to make a person feel alright everyday. It's not like I exercise excessively everyday. The exercise I do range from: Monday- I do back and biceps plus abs, Tuesday is cardio based, Wednesday is shoulders and arms plus abs, Thursday is yoga, Friday is legs and back plus abs, Saturday is cardio based and Sunday is stretching.

I still feel muscle pain even though I have been exercising for 3 months. At this moment, I don't need any weight loss diet supplements. I think I lost weight because some of my pants feels loose. The heart rate monitor band on my chest is also loose on me. It kept falling off my chest every time I jump up and down during the cardio.

I am definitely losing the fats but I am not sure if I lost any weight or not. I am still eating lots though, just not junk food.

Varieties

I actually want to share what daily exercise I do so friends can do the same for them. So yeah, anyway, I work out the shoulders, arms and legs, cardio, yoga and stretch. Anyway, for those who just want to get fit, cardio is the best way to get fit. If you want to have flat tummy, working your abs and doing yoga is good. I do all since darling is doing all. He is supposed to gain weight from working out and drinking the recovery drink but he isn't.

Yoga isn't that bad as it seems. I used to think yoga is hard from what people described to me. It really isn't. It just seems hard because it takes up your time a lot and maybe it is hard to stretch too. I can stretch more than before and balance myself. Yes, you do feel a bit of muscle ache from stretching but that is the process. So yeah..

Probably should check out commercial pumps because we need to fix heat pump for the house to get ready for next year winter. Not sure whether any kind of pumps would be good enough so would have to research more and also ask the heat pump consultants. Hmm.. so where should we go and look? But I guess I would look into pumps for house. Commercial pump is for business companies. Hmm..

I was reading news when I stumbled upon this article.

Activity not just about losing weight.

Lately when I exercise, I noticed that my tummy is almost flat. Yay for that. I have worked so hard to get that so I don't want to spoil having tummy back for eating junk food. I think twice when I am buying snack. =P No, I am not starving myself. I just eat more during dinner and lunch or breakfast.

Tomorrow, it's raining and I am seriously thinking of driving to work. I do know how to drive a manual car but I just hate the thought of having to multi-task so much. Got the gear to change, then you gotta look out for cars, then there's the clutch. It's like a dread feeling, you know. If something happens, then you gotta call the roadside assistance for help or someone else. More trouble coming. I understand why some people choose not to drive if they can.

Happy

So happy that a primary school friend actually reads my blog and was amazed that I am so into exercising. Well, I am not so into the exercising daily. Some days I just felt like giving up or don't want to exercise. It is hard but darling encourage me to do daily if I want to get fit. Yes, I do want to get fit for health sake.

I have to admit that you do need a buddy for exercising otherwise you will stray off and feel lazy to exercise. Or you can be one motivated person and actually exercise daily. Hohoho..

I find that drinking slimming tea at times do contribute to losing weight besides exercising. I did my 'business' twice and my stomach is getting smaller. Guess I don't have to go research how to lose belly fat anymore. Oh oh you can see small lines at my abs too. Lol I am so happy to know that I accomplish something, even a little bit. =) This will just make me more determine to lose more calories.

It is working

Still experiencing aftershocks. I get woken up almost every night by the aftershocks. Not on Wednesday night though because I think I was too tired? Hmm..

I checked thepress.co.nz for the earthquakes updates everyday for how many aftershocks occuring. Nowadays the aftershocks are shallow and felt strong. At least it's not like more than 5. Otherwise, there will be more damage.

So, some updates about the exercise plan that darling and I have been doing. It is tiring but we can see a little bit on darling but not me. I do work hard but maybe I just have more fat to lose. I will have to try my very best. Otherwise I would need thermogenic fat burner. Sigh.. really have to try my very best.

Garden is such a hard work

Second day of exams-free-days, I am up for gardening and also meant to meet up with friends for a social night. Gardening took the whole afternoon. It felt good to see the empty garden. (I don't like the bushy garden and it looks like jungle with the weeds around.) I haven't exercise for so long and by night time, I was so tired and the body aches so much. I didn't feel like going out and with that kind of mood, I sure won't feel so friendly. So I decided not to join friends for meet ups. I know I should be out socializing but really, I was just so tired and I probably won't even pay attention and likely to be complaining about how my body aches so much. I do not think anyone want to hear me complaining. Right, so that's just for Thursday. Friday morning, my body still felt sore. Myan.. at field trips, I never get so tired like this. But I felt good that one thing is done.

Next thing is to have some documents done for the jobs applications. Uni career hub has events like 'Get the job you want', 'Writing successful CV's & winning job applications', 'Job Hunting Strategies' which I am going to join to prepare myself. I feel really blessed that there are help and guidance around to help me to find jobs. I know my parents and darling would support me. Even cousins also gave me advice. I just need to be strong and not feeling deflated everytime I get turned down. I do expect rejections because they are part of the package. It is still kind of scary to me because it is a step ahead of my life. I do sometimes think of going back to study but knowing me, I don't want to waste another more time and money. Doing honours or masters maybe good but I don't think I can handle study anymore.

While doing all these stuff, I think I should head off to the gym to do a bit of workout too. At least I can get rid of the extra fats on my tummy. =P Or maybe not, I just want to relax so maybe I should try out the best fat burner, hehe then I don't need to waste my time. Hmm.. summer  is going to  be interesting because I won't know what to expect and I like to try experience something new. =)

Relax lah

My break has started and I should start revising. Just because it is my final semester, it doesn't mean that I should slack around and forget about studying. I told myself that I cannot afford to fail any papers this semester. Of course no one wants to fail any paper in their final semester but if one does, then one does not have a choice of continuing the next semester right? A friend advised me to remember studying and don't think too much about how it is my final semester, otherwise I would be carried away. Yea, she is right about it. Sometimes I think I sounded so ambitious and by the end of the day, I probably would have only done half of what I expected myself to do. Sigh..

One thing that lingers in my head is that I find that when I call or get some help regarding consumer stuff as customers, I don't get friendly talks, nods or discussion. Very few people really shows friendly face and actually discuss in length about consumer product. They could be having a bad day at work or bad morning. I tend to sense something is wrong if the person is not being friendly or being ownself. But I don't really try to ask what is wrong. For me, I would be quiet and try not to ask too much questions if I sense the other person is not feeling happy. I should probably ask what's wrong but you know, some people just don't want others to probe their problems and some people prefer to be left alone or don't even want people to know. I know I am one. I prefer to be left alone if I am feeling sad. I don't dare to open my mouth to say something because I know I will burst into tears. I don't exactly like people to see me crying. I know that humans are not perfect in emotions and everyone is allowed to cry. But being me, I will try to avoid crying, avoid telling the story and avoid people seeing my red eyes. Anyways, I shall shut up about this.

Being me and always talking about exercising, I don't seeem to be making the effort. But I really like to run the treadmill at least 10 mins a day. Oh if I walk for more than 5 mins a day, would that do any changes? Hehe.. so maybe I should try the top rated weight loss pills. Sometimes I just want to be fit so I won't pant so much after walking for more than 10 mins. Somemore, the weather has been sunny since yesterday. It's definitely a good timing to wash clothes and dry them. Yea.. my first thought when weather's sunny.

Hotel bed?

Does it not look like a hotel bed? Hehehe.. the colour of the duvet and the bed sheets matches. Hence why I said hotel bed.

I think I might have mentioned that the most important thing has been done. Get the living room and beds ready. The kitchen isn't ready yet. So far, cooking can't be done yet. The unpacking of clothes is starting this weekend. The kitchen stuff as well, boxes are still in garage. It's hard to open the garage because I am not tall enough to push it up. Basically you need 2 people to open and close unless you are more than 1.8m tall. Then it's no problem.

Hmm.. so maybe if I do all these packing things, I should be quite fit? Hehehe.. I mean, it is a lot of work to do. So I don't need best diet pills to help lose weight? =P Hehe..

Losing..

Hit the gym. Yea!! Hehehe.. I have been hitting the gym, not the term hit but you know lah.. See how the threadmill looks like. Have a look a bit closer.

See that tv? I think I did take a picture of the gym machine a while ago. But I think this is the best shot. Thanks to her. It was one fine day when we decided to bring the camera to the gym to take us in action. That includes my dad. You see, my dad and sherp and of course, me have been encouraging each other to exercise. When one of us would say, I am lazy, the other would say, let's go. Exercise lah.. And of course, it's the holidays so I have no excuse of saying, I have no time for exercising.

Sure enough, when the new semester starts, I will definitely not be going to the gym. I don't even think I have got enough time. Plus, the gym here is only 1 minute walk and usually it's very free, as in there's no other people using.

Gym-ing

I have been a good girl so far. I went to gym even though I feel lazy. I also tried running one round in the compound in the morning. Actually, it was only one morning. Hehehe.. but I am trying hard to go running in the morning by myself. Oh yea.. so, at the gym, the exercising machines has got TV. I watched Aladdin while exercising. Guess what, I walked for 2 kms without realising it and I wasn't tired. Hmm.. I shall do that and I shall have to remember to bring earphones.

The window looks very nice. =)

Talking about that, nowadays there are lots of HDTV. I bet almost every household has at least one HDTV in the living room. Hmm.. so why the sudden of this HDTV talk? I saw a lot in Carrefour.

Ready

In a few hours time, I will be jetting off to the land of sand Qatar. It was nice to spend time with friends for few days and just ignore going online. Also, I finally bought the bike seat cushion as requested. I have packed my luggage but just this morning, I am contemplating whether to take out some stuff. Maybe I don't need some stuff.. but I want to use it. How? Sigh..

Oh, I have some photos that I want to upload here but I guess you just have to wait till I reach Doha. Oh, I think have to wait some more because I would most probably want to take my beauty sleep when I arrive. Besides this, I was thinking about what I am going to do in Doha. Sherp told me that we can go to gym everyday, so I guess I don't need diet supplements. =) I shall try to lose my fat tummy. =)

So I am going to make myself lunch and throw give away the rest of the food.
