Wet mid week of week 2

The shower have been on and off since noon, hehe... at least its not hot, but still praying hard that it will not rain so that i can work out tonight. Feeling aches from the workout i got from monday, its a good thing... so am enjoying it... Was asked if there was any visible signs of change... honestly... its hard for me to tell coz i see myself all day... hahah so yah... but as of now... i would say its still to early to say...

Muay Thai coach on reservist... so he wasn't there to coach us yesterday, feel strangely lost... hehehez... guess will only go down once he is back then... hehehez...skipping one week. We are also shifting... from cuppage starhub building to temple street, think its along boat quay, or clark quay, either one of them lah... Straight train... hopefully its better. heez.

Just recieved news that one of my course mate in poly is in stage 4 of lung cancer... think its initally throat and it spread to her lungs... Few months ago, one of my poly classmate lost her battle to brain cancer... This is indeed freaking me out... I hate all these news, but yet its serves as a constant reminder to me... on how fortunate I am till now... and i should be more thankful to life and to cherish every second of it. Thou i do not know her personally, but its still sad, no matter what we spent three years in the same course, in the same school. My blessing is for her, and hopefully she stays strong and win the battle over cancer...

Run in 4 days time... haven been training... but guess should be able to do it... just gonna take my time to enjoy my surrounding and a good run... a good guage for my AHM i guess... hehez....

Alright then i guess that all for now... hehez... Mid week... hang in there everyone... the weekends is just around the corner!!!

Cheers

Week 2 begins!!!


Have to constantly put this picture to remind myself of my current status. Was watching Super Sized me and honestly see a perfectly health body crashed due to fast food is super... i mean super SCARY lah... hehehez... For those that think they are fat... Please watch art central at 9pm tml, they show cases of the fastest youngest on the planet, I am talking about 14 year olds weighing up to 170kg!!! so yah... its not a form of consolation, but warning that if you dun do anything about your waistline apart from complaining that you are fat... THEN THIS MIGHT BE HOW YOU MIGHT END UP!!!! I really hope those kids can live long enough to lose those weight man...

Having said that, I regret to say that I a very disappointed with my dieting regime, the workout is fine, just that my diet isn't doing much justice to the input I generate in gym. One word to describe this weekend... SHIT!!! Super late nights, Super heavy dinners... Put my entire weeks work down the drain... Just hope not all is lost.... Going to persevere and determine to get the best out of these 16 weeks.

here is my week 2 regime. Wish me luck... I WILL SURVIVE!!!!

RESISTANCE TRAINING

A1: Dive Bomber Pushup
A2: Jump Squat

B2: Alternating Split Squat Jump

C1: Double Crunch
C2: Single Leg Plank Pose

1st week passed.... reflect

I have survive the 1st of the 16 weeks challenging.... regime wise, I would still say its acceptable, doing to my fittness level, trying to push it up a knot, but i guess its better the start from ground zero and slowly build it back up... I am not in the fitness level I was 6 months ago... which then I took about a year to build to that level... hehe....GROUND ZERO!!! REMEMBER RYAN!!!!

Lets do a recap.... been doing the regime I posted at the begining of the week, my verdict, seems easy when you are not doing it... hahaha Thou its all body weight workout... it takes the breath out of you with the supersets... as for cardio intervals, doing Muay Thai on tues, thurs I did my runs, and tml there will be dragonboat. This is pretty much how things will be... but the workout is fun, you just have to push yourself a little... The guy that is doing it is a bootcamp instructor... so that explains his determination, for me, I just need to prove it does not need a fitness instructor to show you that its only possible for them... 15 more weeks... and for all those who is joining me on my journey... will post my weekly regime here (or rather his 16 week regime here) and maybe we can work our way to a 6 packs together man... hehehe

Just make a pact with a secondary school friend, Chee Yong, who is entering into FUN ISLAND coming thursday to protect the nation. His mission is to lose at least 20kg in a span of 4 months, if you break it down its 5 kg a month about 1.2 kg a week. Not an impossible task since you are in tekong... jia you bro... his mission for me is to be able to bench 25kg each side, with reps of 12, honestly not so strong, but for him I will try my best...

For all those "supporter" I thank you... and do keep you words of encouragements coming.. hahah (suddenly i sound like N*F asking for donation, hehe you know... Please dial...1900..... hahaha)

Will post my coming week regime on sunday... hehe my rest day... hehehez Have a run next weekend, so probably go collect my race pack on sunday. Its the Singapore Passion Run. 15 km run which honestly I haven't train AT ALL!!!! but after the few rounds of running, can feel my stamina slowly picking up, (for short distance, not sure for long) so the key t the run will to survive the 15km without stopping. that will already be an achievement.

Reflection, think I am not much of a guy.... dun get me wrong, dun refer to that I am turning gay, thou there is nothing wrong being one and not discriminating. Think I have been a Mr. Nice Guy for too long, really, so much so that I am losing any part of a MCP in me... its not neccessary a bad thing (to many girls might think) but its not exactly a good thing either. But will have to sort it out alone... this is not something pple can help i guess.... But lesson learn... reflected and will improve... I AM GROWING STRONGER!~!~!~

Have a great weekend peepz...

Stiff neck... OMG!!!

Today's session for muay thai was good, and its a clear sign of my weaken stamina... really really really really need to do something about it... Nevertheless its a good session. The crowd is getting really big nowadays, maybe its due to this sudden Contender Asia craze. We are looking at close to 30 student now as compared to then when we have less then 10. So crunches and squats and all are really crazy... Our style is like we have everyone to form a circle and we go around with each one counting a certain amount... so for example, crunches, each one count 10... so we go around, we did close to 300 crunches man... HAHAHAHA

I have a long journey ahead of me.... can say the greatest obstacle for me now is still my diet, time off for the regime can still be done. But diet wise... still working towards 6 smaller meals a day. but will work on it...

Yawnz.... super tired... will go put some oilment and head of to bed... tml new day... new mission!!!

Why didn't she come to Singapore

Heard she had a concert in KL recently... WHY didn't she come.... Hello Esplande?? Hello Sistic? hahaha can invite her please!!! hehez.. she is awesome lah!!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jnXNt4fJqj4

check out the link to find out who I am talking about... and yes... I am totally in love with this song!!!!!

It starts today...


This was me last year (photo on top), training for marathon, and this is me now...(photo on bottom) just look at the difference man... Then I was a gym freak, gym was practically my 2nd life, and with the monthly running event, I was literally packed with workout activities, and even when there is no event, I run alot... Ever since after Stand Chart marathon last year, I slacked and in the span of 6 months, I have gain 4 kg and changed from what I look then to what I look like now... I would have look much worse then now if I have not already start to gym and all again. Thats for sure.... and considering how I looked in the past (like really really long time ago) some might think its still not that bad. However, I should not compare to that time already as that chapter of my life has already past. Its time for me to take my body up another level, to a level I have yet attain in my life. yes I want to see my packs... I got so close and one slip and i got myself starting from ground zero again. But I am going to do something about it, and my journey starts today.

Rather then my regime in the past, which got be labelled as gym freak, where life revolve around gym, I am taking on a different approach, on working hard, but working smart too this time around... I have a chance to stumble upon this webby on a success story, and will give his workout a try... In 16 weeks he managed to get 6 packs, and together was alot of success stories, but mostly found from the other part of the world (meaning the states). I would like to prove to myself and everyone that, its possible to do so in Asia too... Will share his weekly regime here for those who are motivated to lost some weight and allow ur abs to see light. For those who are still not convince... No forcing you, coz honestly, there is no point, some people follow from the motto "Do nothing and be happy, rather then doing something they are not" so yeah, its you life... you choose...

Alright, enough trash talk, here is the regime for my first week, then on, I will share me feelings for every week, and hopefully show picture of my improvement, am targeting by week 8 and of course 16 which is the end!!! Wish me luck people...

Week One - M, W, F

Its all in the mind...

Was watching Tyra Bank's talk show this morning, normally not a big fan of her show, just that the topic of the day caught my eyes. "Fashion Freaks!" I would call it... Well, the topic of the day talks about people obsess with branded goods, and when I say branded I mean branded, from LV, to Polo Ralph, to Burberry, and what not...

But the point highlighted is how such goods "poisons" her guest's minds... and she actually made them realise how so and how bad they are being "poisoned" and how dependent they are on these goods. There is this girl, all it took was a fashion label, and it was able to change her way she look at life, and you can literally see the change in her, SUPER DRASTIC LAH!!!! she was made to go out in 2 set of different close. One and authentic Prada dress and the other a cheap dress that look expensive. The difference was they swap the label. So lets call the Prada dress that has its label swap "A" and the fake prada "B". So when this girl wore A, she felt super inferior, like she is out of place, no one was looking at her, no one was noticing her, she found it hard to talk to people, she shouldn't be dress this way in a posh hotel, all because she didn't know that the dress was actually PRADA!!!! then when she wore B, CHANGED!!! the confidence and all was back, she talk to people, walk with her head up straight... feels all good about herself. Weird isn't it.

Then there is this mother that will not dress her kids in nothing less then branded, and not kids branded, ADULT brands like polo ralph and hermes and stuff like that. (OMG!!!!) on the average she spends 1000 on her kids MONTHLY!!!! THIS IS MADNESS!!!! So Tyra tried the same thing on her, showing her a series of kids wear, even go to the extent of getting someone to act as a designer to describe the clothes, and she was hooked and say it was her kind... little that she knew all the clothes range was from Kmart and the designer was someone from the audience!!! OMG!!!

If you think that is extreme, people even go to the extend to make water branded, no you are not hearing wrongly, WATER, H2O, the thing flowing out from you tap. Some people in America actually spends money buying bottled water... CRAZY LAH!!!

I am not saying that I do not go for brands, just not that obsess with it. Brand do play a part of my buying decision, but honestly will not be the first thing that make me buy an item. If there is really going to be ranking. Here is how it will go:-

This is in terms of clothes and things we put on myself.
1) Comfort
2) Looks/Appearance
3) Workmanship
4) Brand

and the list goes on... yes brand no doubtingly will put into peoples brain how reliable it is. But honestly it does not play such a big role in my part unless there is a "Pulling" factor. Like a good steal of such like something going for hundreds and I am getting it for 30 bucks or something. yes, but I will feel so much better if the thing is comfy, good quality and workmanship at the same time price is good... the achievement is so much higher man...

Perception is always playing tricks in everyone's mind, even in my own, but one honestly advise. Try looking at the thing you feel like buying from many angle, do not just get blinded by the brand, look out for details and sometime you can get something better from a departmental store then from a boutique.

In her show, she invited a couple of authors who wrote about fashion today and about branded goods losing its luxury. Honestly, I do agree that luxury has lost it touch, and I do not blame them as they have to to meet demands, but if you think of it... do they have to? or they want to? You are getting big designer brands and nowadays it is made in China, Thailand, etc. What happened to those made in Germany, or Italy things already. Please do not misunderstand, but I have no issue with goods made in China or Thailand, or are particularly fancy of things from Germany and Italy, my point is, since those goods are originally from there, why aren't they made there anymore? Cheaper manufacturing but selling at 'original' prices? think about it. Luxury have really lost it touch.

Human perception is a really scary thing... but its what keeps big companies going, and millionaires' bank full. preying on needs, desire of human... And as intelligent as we think we all are... Think again... even the smartest have their foolish moments...

CHAMPIONZ!!!!

MAN U claims double!!! thrilling match, credit to chelsea too... having fought the battle all the way to the end.... one of the better EPL clashing ever. First half chelsea must thought they are playing against the 11 man they played in EPL... its really wrong as you can tell that they got a shock on how well man u is when they are full strenght, so 2nd half they come back, both team miss numerous oppotunities, with both teams settling with just a goal from the first half; Ronaldo's fantastic header goal and Lampard goal from a defensive error of man u. It dragged into extra time and both team seem significantly tired already. Then it was down to penalty... Man U seems like a goner with their line up of penalty takers, especially when their top scorer, Ronaldo was denied by Chez. But things took a turn when John Terry, the person that made Chelsea dream come alive and pretty much save them the spot in the final, hit the post. Heavy price to pay... The moment of truth was out when Van de Sar denied Anelka... Fantastic... Man U have made Chelsea 2nd 2 times in a row, definately a tough thing to swallow. Terry could not keep himself together after... who could... but overall, fantastic match, and a true champion league final at its best.

Another would be America Idol, David Cook is crowned the new American Idol!!! ROCK ONLI!!! hehez... both are good (that is according to my mum, but she was rooting for the youngster, as she claim he did very well and got super good comment from Simon) Oh well, I am sure both did very well, with Cook only winning by a mere 12,000 votes, a very little amount considering the number of votes have been casted (MILLIONS LAH!!!!) Congraz... and let see how things goes for him lah... Honestly there isn't many that really succeed, the only would still be Kelly Clarkson.

Was looking at training from wrestler yesterday over in youtube...and cannot help but feel that this wrestler, or rather ex-wrestler, Brock Lenar, is a true athelete man... for a man his size, he moves really really fast... scary fast... give me lots of motivation... but of course not to get to his size... just having part of his strenght and stamina and physics I will be POWERFUL LIAO LAH!!! but look at the workout he goes through and u understand how he gets to what he is man... ENJOY!!!! its an orgasmic experience...

A promise to keep... boring blog ahead...

My weight is official, itchy today and stepped on the weighing scale. I AM 77kg, from my lowest at 73kg, that is alot... HAHA!!! One consolation would be a comment from yao guo... said i look buffer... haha...so hopefully I am gaining muscle mass... hehez

Been promising myself to workout for close to a month now... and honestly thou progress is slow, I am conditioning my body to pick up rather well I must say. Anyway I have a target to reach, 25 September 2008 is the date. A few targets to reach, as follows

1) Toner body (hopefully my abs will show)
2) Be lighter, fitter, stronger
3) Better fitting in clothes (being a fashionista, thats a must)
4) Bring out the confidence in me
5) long term goal, Maybe appear in magazine again? pehaps... hehez

This is going to be an all out experience, and my blog will now features on all the moment till 25th september, the time frame is 16 week. In this 16 weeks I will share all the thrills and spills, the ups and down to my workout regime as well as a record of my diet plan. As well as photos sharing. meanwhile, here is what I look now... present moment... just taken 5 mins ago. Not a pretty sight and certainly not for the faint hearted... hahaha



Scary eh... hopefully in 16 weeks time things will change... alright thats for now then... hopefully my journey can inspire those that wanna lose weight too... if not... Please just show me support ba... hehez... Cheers pple!!!

There is always rainbow after a shower

The fear inside...

I hate being in this constant state of contradiction, feeling lost, having to assume things... I HATE IT!!! Maybe I am just being too weak, or maybe I just care too much, overly sensitive to my surrounding... Don't ask me why, I am like that... and boy do I hate it man....

I am tired... really tired... cause I don't understand, and I do not enjoy leaving a question hanging... I like it solved... coz its bothers me... and no one wants a problem during a weekend when they already have plenty over the weekdays... TRUST ME!!!

Bloody Monitor keep giving me problem, think I have to change it soon before it cause my cpu to crash.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! i feel like just screaming like that now man... Thank god for Muay Thai, truely the only things to vent whatever I have within. I think if there is not muay thai, I will be in Hougang Chalet already.

Giving everyone everything and end up with nothing for yourself... should I be so selfish... can't i deserve some too??? Someone tell me??? I am afraid, to do things I want to do... or at least think I want to do... I donno why... but it seems that way... TOTAL SIAN-NESS!!!

Self Reflection...

A series of events lately have really caused me to sit down to reflect on me, Ryan Koh, as a person. This is no bragging session, neither a self pity or whatever you want to see it session. But I really feel that its healthy for everyone to do this once in awhile... To truely understand yourself from ground zero.

Hmm... Honestly, I say I try to be there for everyone of my friends.. those needing a listening ear, a word of advise, a shoulder to rest on and all... So much so I wonder at time, What is the base to the advise I am giving? What made me so special to be advising people. At times I get so overly carried away I will think, Why complicate such a simple matter and broad over it... GET OVER IT ALREADY... but reflecting on that now... its not as simple as it seems.... Coz like they will say, things are often easier said then done. Many a times, maybe me being overly sensitive again, I feel that me extending my aid seem to others as my form of showing off. In what expect I really donno, maybe i am just being to self centered, and feel that all the attention is at me all the time... You know I am not sure if you feel this... but I do all the time... I feel that I am judged every second of the day (except when I am alone, and even then, u do judge urself too... when u look into the mirror). I voice this out and many people just thinks I am being paranoid, maybe I am, but i cannot help it. Serene mention about brain conditioning, and again, I feel that its something easier said then done, if everyone is capable of doing so, psychiatrists around the world will be out of job.

I am sure many of you out there have experienced moment where what u say and what u think is contridicting... Like you tell urself "I can do this" but in your mind you are going "there is no way" yet u try to convince urself you can... Its a kinda conditioning, but I honestly say... it doesn't really work on me... coz many a times, these things that happens to me is a reflecting of my past. so much so it as already turn to a habit, a reflex, something that will come to you naturally when something else happens. Hard to change, but never impossible... working hard on it...

I am into a new phase of workout and trying to 'regain yesterday's glory' and ultimate aims... started my cycle of supplements again. and already catching up on my runs and all... thou the distance remains... still trying to work on my stamina. First run of the year starts in less then a month away. Singapore Passion run, a 15km run this year... ECP, my most hated running round when comes to running event coz its a round about run so everything u see its pretty much the same... SIAN....

There is plenty more to reflect... but I cannot really put them in words right now... so i will leave it as it is now... and maybe a part 2 or what some other day then... Cheers, and have a great weekend ahead everyone!!!!

Rainy day... woo hoo

The day started off rainy... and have not seen the sun all day... not sure will get to see it today lah... Thank god for the plaster (yao gao bu in chinese), have a bad case of stiff neck after yesterday's session of muay thai... guess I really have to strengthen muscles there. Apart from that, yesterday training was pretty fun, a huge group and the cooling down regime was a killer. SHIOK ARH!!! heehz

Learn a very interesting phrase from TV today, or Rui En for that matter. She says, "You can be everything to everyone, but end up being nothing to yourself." I feels its really meaningful and reflects alot on myself. Many a times, I have been so focus in making everyone around me happy, that i neglected myself. Its not wrong to be selfish and think of urself at times... You too need time off you know... hehez

Okok enough on that... Working on heaps of assingment once again as the term is coming to an end... This sem seems so much longer. but at least things are not as packed compared to that last... guess thats y I feel its more of a breeze... but having say that... should try to procrastinate less and get things done and over with... alright then... lunch time... the smell of food is really making me super hungry lah... hehez... Cheers peepz!!!

Yet another hot day...

Mother Nature is finally angry with human taking everything for granted... and its fighting back in every aspect. Earthquakes, Hurricanes, Tornadoes, you name it... and its getting bigger than every. and soon to come, a volcano eruption in New Zealand I think. She seems to be punishing those that are discontented with life... Places like Indonesia, Myanmar, and now China. Indonesia we know its the constant riots and stuff. For Myanmar was also a strike of some sort, and China is the war with Tibet that have sparks many reaction all over the world. With so many incident, it really makes one wonder if Olympics is going to take place this year. Will China place a mark in history, for first and last time hosting such major event? I really wonder... China is undoubtingly going to be a major power one day... but will I live to see it... I ponder...

Today its yet another hot day... this heatwave is frying Singapore man... its like being in a microwave (not that I have physically been in one... but SAME DIFFERENCE) Looking forward to Muay Thai tonight... the sweat and all... woo hoo... Got my supplements this morning... will start the cycle tomorrow on I think. Its really time to make amendments to my sleeping habits, eating habits, exercise regime and time management on a whole. Have plenty to change. Slow and steady is the key.

Hmm... nothing much to share about this bright sunny tuesday afternoon. Except that its HOT HOT HOT!!! haha... oh well looking forward to a packed weekend... so have to see lah.. hehez... Money spending again OMG!!!! have to stay with bread for the week then...

Alright have a great day ahead pple... cheers

Sunday, May 11, 2008

oppz. I did it again...

Hello peepz.... been a busy past few days... with many many things, assignments, outings, you name it... but alot involves money, and sadly there ain't much left...OMG FINANCIAL SLOW DOWN COME SO SOON!!!! for me at least... really need to tighten my belt from a waist of 32 to 28 or 26 liao... hahaha (oppz i disclosed my waist size...)

Anyway, to all the mothers out there... HAPPY BELATED MOTHER'S DAY!!! Brought my mum to sakea today. Due to the rising food prices, sakea have also increase in their price per plate... its no long 1.99 per plate people, its 2.29 per plate liao... red plate is not 5.99 liao... CRAZY ARH!!! but since it was for a special occasion then nvm lah... PPLE WATCH OUT ARH!!! hehez sakea is no longer cheap liao...

This weekend has been pretty packed... Friday, went to JB with Herbert and Terence, bert needs to top up on some office wear for his new job with ANA, ALL THE BEST YAH BRO!!! hehez... managed to get quite a few nice ones... I got myself a couple too and pants... hehez... ended up i got the entire set when he only got tops... but nevertheless, it was good "harvest". The rush back was crazy... we wanted to make it for Marie Digley debut performance at Velvet Underground for her promo album. Was late by 1/2 hour but still managed to get in. She can sing, but honestly, to offence to her fans out there. Its forgettable, if she is not yet discovered by big organsation, then this might jolly well be her first and last album. But she is drop dead chio lah... for that matter. As we were leaving after that... get to meet her face to face, too bad I didn't bring a camera (due to the rush) if not I will definately take a pic with her. After which, went to Wine Connection down at Robertson Quay (which bert kept pestering to go... hahaha and get intro to those SIA ger frens of ours... hahaha) for a little wine, and chat before heading home in night-rider.... send Serene home first of course... hehez.. couldn't let her go back herself at that hour can't I? hahaha

Saturday, went dragonboating with Serene, her company team and she ask me to try out. Was at Bedok reservoir, was a neat sessions, but through that session have really experience the importance of the basics (something i have neglected in the pass) I would say I did a good session with them, and for a first time meeting up with them... they are really friendly people... Evening went for a walk in town with Serene (after showering at home and all of course...hee) and yeah... pretty much summed up the day

Sunday, assignment block the entire day... progress and tension is building up...as my procrastinating nature have once again put these stress mode back on me... working slow but steadily to the finishing line... hopefully i won't do so bad... That about it for now... the week ahead, really not expecting anything big... But really want to get all the assignments done once and for all... so that i can chill already...

Have a great week ahead everyone!!! Cheers!

Bloody Mess!!!

Don't worry, nothing happened to me... just refering to my visit to the dentist this morning... My mouth is FILTHY man!!! thats what the dentist said... so plenty of scrapping and polishing... now my mouth feels really sore as he used alot of strenght scrapping all the dirt of my teeth, so much so at some point I felt as thou my 2 front teeth is coming out....

Everytime i rinse my mouth, its like i am vomiting blood man... woo hoo scary... hehez... The dentist had to give me some kinda mouthwash to gaggle to stop the bleeding. Now have problem chewing too hard... very sore... but for the better of my mouth... i will be ok... hehez... Lesson learnt: visit you dentist once a year (thou some said once every 6 mths.)

Enough on my gross ordeal. Past 2 days have been pretty alright, manage to do a decent workout thou still struggling to keep my diet in place, All day i think about food food... when I have having lunch I will be thinking about what to snack after... IT IS BAD!!! try very hard to keep in controlled.

My monitor at home is giving me problem once again. Hope it does not affect my cpu... at least wait till i have enough money to get a new piece lah. hehez...

School's later, before that will hit the gym first... trying to keep this regime alive... I dun want my efforts to go to waste... The runs are nearing and I haven't been training my runs as yet... time to change my schedule abit here and there.

Jia you!!!

Wassup with that!!!

I am sorry if I have given people attitude lately... I really haven't been myself lately... So very very sorry If I did offend anyone, or pissed anyone that have crossed my path.

The damn weather hasn't been helpful recently. I know its no point whining (and I dun like to do so) about something that I cannot change. ARRRRGGGHHH!!!! That feels so much better. Everything in school is moving along pretty smoothly, too smoothly actually, so much so I feel like I am slacking. Is it wrong?

I had this feeling, a feeling even I cannot explain... I thought its gone already... but it just keep on coming and coming? Mini depression? I donno, but really hope not... haiz... What is this feeling... why am I feeling like that? I really donno... haiz... When can i face up to it... the unknown... I ALSO DONNO!!! How do you face up to something you don't even know? I wonder at myself sometimes...

Today, the sky looks hopeful to rain, but the sky seem really dark but not a single drop of rain in sight... Looking at it the bright side... at least its not very hot... hahaha have class tonight, do doubt I will leave office too late, wan to hit a workout in the gym first.

Easily emo lately... Finding back the old me... at least... trying to find...

The Real Me....

Lately emotions have been running about myself... and I start to realize that the roots of many problems begins with me... yes a reaction to things always comes from an action first... but many a times i feel that such action are cause by me in the first place. So I actually get back what I caused in the first place... Confused... you are not alone....

Everything have been about me... at least thats is what the inner me have been tell me... when something goes wrong, Me, when someone is upset, Me, when something screws up... ME. ME, ME, ME... I donno what have turn me this way... but honestly its not doing me any good. I feel distant from most of my classmates, self inflicted I can tell, but i really don't know what I can do about it. I lost words to talk to them. So I stay silent, but many a times I feel they think there is something wrong with me... I DO!!!! I dare not face it I guess.

The feeling I have is really affecting me and those that are near me... Its kinda repelling anyone from getting too close with me... and those that hasn't gave up on me... i fear might soon will...

I do wan to talk, I was the one that say to talk in the first place... Communication solve many problems... but whenever a problem arise... where does my voice box goes? It was brought up yesterday. "Thought you want to talk, why must I always ask before you are willing to talk? Why you talk during happy times and when situation arises you keep dumb..." Everything has been processing in me... I also want to find the answer. I guess i am afraid to talk... worried that whatever said might bring about more understanding, but it seems like my silence weren't at all helpful too... What can I do?

I don't want to make myself sound like a victim here.... But blogging is indeed my best channel to let everything out. I am not as confident as all you guys out there think I am... thou I would say I can be pretty good an actor, or like the King would say... I am a pretender. I admit I am not smart, neither and I stupid, but I dare admit I have an honest heart... a simple simple heart, and really fragile for a guy's one to be honest. Everything affects me easily, I tear pretty easily, nothing shameful about that I guess, I enjoy peace, I enjoy having time to myself, doing my own things, and yet factors pushes me to want to push myself all the time, I want to lead a better live. I have no issues about money (yet) and what I earn currently is self sufficient. I am happy with my current state now, but at times, I feel that I really need to go out to earn big money, to satisfy other need, I want people to look up to me... I want to be successful in life. Isn't that what everyone wants in live?

Whenever I "whine" about things like that in life, many would ask me, what is success in life? Honestly, I haven't a clue, I was even posted that question in one of my interview... At that point, I was struck dumb... I really donno what is success in life... at least in my own definition. Always in my lowest point, I look back in the past, things that have given me so much happiness, all my achievements, my biggest so far would be my weight loss. I envied those days where nothing seems to be able to stop me... No fear, just try, fail, just try again... and when everything get tough, the inner me will just keep pushing me... forcing me to work extra hard.... Making goals were so much easier then as my drives makes everything achievable. Procrastination was never an option, whenever I wanted to run, I will pick up the runners and just go. Nowadays, I will look out, see a hot day, and just hit the showers. Where is my drive... have I let it die away? why am I full of excuses lately, why can I just admit that I haven't have it in me no more... Loser are not shameful, quitters are... I am trying my best not to get to that stage.

I used to be able to stand up... and just go... now I am desperately in-need of a hand, a strong one... someone to drill me back, get my ass of the couch and back on running tracks... is there someone out there to help me? Please Help.... Be it gym buddy, or running buddy, or a devil coach, you are all welcome...

I am a simple guy, nothing special about me at all, the earth will still spins even if I am died, and live will not wait for me so I am really hoping to stand up... will you help me???

OH the HEAT.... I AM MELTING.......

The weather these few days have been really really really really bad... ITS SUPER DUPER HOT LAH!!!! for once I am complaining, coz the sun will BURN man... its been a long time since the sun have been this strong... Is the world goint to end really soon, coz the weather is sure showing signs of it... But well for now... PLEASE USE SUN SCREEN!!!! am going to get some later... hehez..

Its gonna be an all English Final for Champions league, Man U Vs Chelsea, the second clash after that defeat of Man U, going to be a revengeful night for Man U, and now with a stronger squard I am sure. Chelsea Vs Barcalona match was exciting man... Paul Scholes winning goal was a screamer... like the old Scholes I knew... but honestly, can tell that age is catching up on him... he is not as aggressive as in the past. Maybe because Roy Keane no longer around? Donoo... hehez...

The match between Liverpool and Chelsea was a good game as well... with both sides showing plenty of skills and determination. The penalty was really un-called for and liverpool was also obviously denied a penalty... Oh well... both teams played to their best... so NO REGRETS MAN!!!

Been a pretty slack week for me I have to say, why? coz I haven't really started working out as planned (OMG!!! I HATE PROCRASTINATING!!!) progress have been slow, but moving along steady. Will hopefully improve it next week...

OMG i am super late... shall write more some other time then... have a great weekend and Cheers peepz
