Fab Abs

I have been procrastinating my work out sessions. The more I put off, the more weight I gain. Argh.

Starting today (actually I started yesterday but I wasn't serious) and with more seriousness, I will get my arse to start running and working out my abs by doing sit ups.

A friend of mine posted a video on how to work your abs and that it only takes 15 minutes to do it (with my work schedule and everything else that is all the time I can afford right now!).

So ... I am looking forward to do that when I get off from work today.

I hope I won't stop anywhere on the way home to grab coffee or early dinner with my friends. Hmmm that sounds tempting. I haven't seen my bestie in a while so that would be a good idea ...

NO.

I can do this! I can start my work out religiously ... starting today! I must!!

Wish me luck!

:p

25 Random Things About Me

1. I love to sing. Usually, I sing my heart out when I am taking a shower. Alone. Haha.
2. Recently, I had a Bartholin's cyst and to drain it out. It was my first minor surgery ever. It was quite an experience albeit a painful one.
3. When I was a baby and right until I was about 5 or so; I was told that whenever I was put to sleep, I would have to hold my mother's or father's pinky to fall asleep. Cute, I know ;)
4. I don't know how it feels like to have a grandfather. I am deprived of a grandfather's love for his grandchildren although the stories I heard from my siblings weren't that exciting but seeing how my father is with his grandchildren and also, the stories I heard from my friends about theirs, made me feel a tiny bit jealous. Damn it! I want one!
5. My boyfriend has the ability to make me feel like I'm the sexiest woman on earth and at the same time, the goofiest woman! *eyes rolling*
   
6. My imagination works in a sadistic way sometimes - when I have absolutely nothing to do or am bored, I start imagining sick, twisted and sadistic thoughts such as a nail gun in my hand and I'm shooting my foot with it or I'm up on the highest floor of a building, and there I am jumping of the building. Those thoughts are not something I would actually do but yeah, I can't help imagining them. Sick, right?
7. I'm very protective of my loved ones. I will do anything in my power to protect them from the enemies or anything that threatens them. I live by "if you hurt or mess with my loved ones, you mess with me". Got it? Good.
8. I get bored easily. My mind wanders off easily if the conversation is dull or not interesting. I get anxious when the movie drags on way too long to get to the good part. It can be a yawn-fest for me. Surprisingly, this does not apply to my relationships. In recent years, I've been pretty good at picking interesting man!
9. It takes me time to open up to people/friends, only those I call my best friends (BF included)/good friends are the ones I tell my deepest worries/thoughts to. Even that, I choose very wisely. Once I put my trust on you, consider yourself a good person (most of the time, I am a good judge of character) and that I trust you endlessly but once the trust is broken, my advice is get a new passport and migrate. You wouldn't want to betray my trust. Believe me.
   
10. I hate to queue up!! I try to avoid standing in line to buy movie tickets. I make sure my bills are paid via internet so that I don't have to wait in line. At the same time, I avoid talking to rude customer service representatives. My level of tolerance for rude people is very low. Add stupidity to that as well.
11. I love Nutella on toasted bread! I can have that for breakfast, lunch and dinner!
12. I hate when people use "din din". "Let's go have din din". WTF? Just say "dinner". Using "din din" is not CUTE, it's just STUPID.
13. I miss my late mother with every fiber of my being. Lately, I break down a lot more than usual from missing her especially when I am going through a tough time. I wish she was around when I was going through the pain of surgery and the recovery of it. I miss being her little girl. What comforts me knowing that every bit of her runs through my blood.
14. Putting my loved ones before me is something I do naturally.
15. A huge dream wedding - I don't have one. I'm happy with just a small gathering of family and close friends. That is more personal for me. Who wants to have people they've never met before come to their wedding?! Plus I read somewhere that huge wedding celebration leads to divorce later on. I think there was a research done on this. As stupid as it is, I have found some truth in that from my now-divorced friends.
16. I may not have a dream wedding but I do aim for an ideal marriage. Apart from practising willingness to give, take and share; a couple must also be willing to compromise. To achieve my ideal marriage, I feel that my man has to share the same value system (a set of consistent ethic values), ideas and beliefs. As I am writing this, I realise all these qualities are in my boyfriend.
17. Kids - I never liked them. I used to avoid being around kids due to their whiny, little arses. That all changed when my first niece was born. Then another niece and another. When I held my first niece (albeit holding it like a football), it was the best moment of my life and I began to appreciate kids. Don't get me wrong, I still find kids annoying and whiny but at least, I don't feel like kicking them of a building anymore.
18. I have never been on a hot air balloon! That's like my ultimate dream - lol. Hot air balloon isn't that popular here so it's a tad hard to get on one. As cliche as it is, my friend's fiance proposed to her on a hot air balloon - swweeeeeeeett!
19. I've been told I'm way too sarcastic for my own good. Let's see ... am I suppose to change my ways just for you? Yeap, didn't think so. Now move along ...
20. My all time dream job is to become a ninja. It's not exactly a job but I'm pretty sure a ninja gets paid for the services he or she provides. No? (o.O)
21. I'm easily amused to a point where a stupid "knock knock" joke can make me laugh - hard. I hardly need people to amuse me though as I can amuse myself just fine.
22. Apparently, I'm a snob and high maintenance - according to my best friends and a few other friends. Even my siblings seem to think so (of course, this is only because they are snobs, themselves). I can't help it if I enjoy good, quality food. Get over it :p
23. I'm not offended when someone calls me a bitch. Only because it stands for Beautiful Individual that Causes Hard-ons. Lame, I know. But in all honesty, as bitchy as I can be - I'm really a nice human being *bats eyelashes*. Seriously, some people deserve the bitchiness from me - I can't help it if you're a tosser!
    
24. I can watch How I Met Your Mother in repetition and still find it hilarious. At one time, I was the female version of Barney Stinson minus the promiscuity.
25. I am exhausted from thinking of 25 random things about me!!

Relationship

A relationship should be a compliment between two whole people. A relationship should be born from the desire from two complete people to bond in such a way that they genuinely enjoy each other's company. It's a moment where he can appreciate her for who she is and vice-versa. A relationship should be growing together and realizing that all relationships are born of chemicals.

A relationship should be wanting to stick by each other's side through the worst storms. It is realizing that life will continue to throw tests at your relationship until you one day get to such an amazingly torturous test that it shakes the foundation of all that you two built together. A strong relationship is weathering that test because you are a stronger bond than any type of chaos present in the universe.

A true relationship is waking up to them each morning and, despite all their flaws, you continue to love them more each day. A true relationship is the realization that, although the chemicals and first spark are amazing, that you have to fight the long fight together. A stable relationship is being able to be dropped anywhere in the world with your significant other and taking hands and walking together -- you'd die for each other because it is just the right thing to do. A true relationship is never abandoning the other -- never cheating despite insane temptations. It is the realization that the sex may get old, but it is YOUR sex and YOURS alone. A true bond is the understanding that you both took an oath to be at each other's sides and suffering the worst that life throws at you while always reaching out to grab your lover's hand. When you fall, they pick you up. When they fall, they smile and bring you back to your feet.

That's true love -- and it takes two very mature people to realize that, all in all, we're all people with the same basic needs. The grass may seem greener, but grass is grass and when it comes down to it, we need to stick by the promise and keep our positions firm.

It's not easy, I know but this is something we need to remind ourselves of - now and then.

Things that make you think..

Lately, I've been doing a lot of thinking. Nothing too serious but nothing that can be taken lightly either.

It's something that I think most people think about at least once in their lifetime. Relationships. Love. Commitment. And everything that comes with them.

I'd like to get into it right now here on my blog but it's almost 23:30pm and I hardly had any sleep last night so am going to crash soon and start blogging about it tomorrow (hopefully!).

The beginning of Myst..

I have been blogging since I was 21 years old. I stopped blogging a few year after because of a drama that was caused by my ex-college mates on my blog. It was stupid but I had to delete my entire blog. Shame.

Then I started blogging again about 6 years ago. I still have that blog but I prefer to leave that one and start a new one. Reason because I can't remember my damn password! I can't even retrieve it! Gggrrr.

Anyway, this is my first entry and hopefully there will be more to come.. soon.
