So now that my brother has finally left the country, I am determined to place my focus on returning to the days of might and glory long since past.
I have been neglecting both my physical and mental development to pursue endless weekends of DotA. However that must now come to an end as I pursue prowess of the mind and body.
Shed not tears for my my loyal DotA crew for I have not forsaken you, my journeys to Seremban will still take place, although sporadically. Yet I am still an exhibitionist at heart, so I must tell you what I will be doing.
I will be focusing on work more, which in Asian terms means staying late at the office. There's a lot to do both contemporary and procrastinated which I must now get through. Furthermore, my needs for good references forces me to put on a stylised show of hard work, well it won't be a show I guess since I'll be in fact working.
An increase in exercise is definately overdue. While my brother was down I indulged in an orgy of eating. This consumption and lack of sufficient exercise over the past six months or so has resulted in weakness and flab. I want my six-pack back. I miss being stronger that I am now. I want to be able to bench press my own body weight again.
So the plan is to furiously work out on most days of the week. Unlike women, I will not succumb to the madness of dieting. High quality food is a must both to cut down on fat and increase muscle size. However, starvation to lose weight is retardation at its most dangerous level. All you females reading this need to start jogging instead of whining about your weight, starving yourself on salads (conveniently drenched in high-fat dressing) and then scarfing down pizza and ice-cream on the weekends. I plan to actually gain weight though, which is about as difficult for me as it is for an obese person to lose weight.
I have also commenced with the reading of "Angels & Demons" today in a vain attempt to spur the growth of my vocabulary. While I do still intend to play video games, this activity will most likely be reserved for the weekends.
Life as a pauper will become my new motto. Sadly, even though I have a full time job, I live merely 700 ringgit above the poverty line in Kuala Lumpur. My pressing need to boost my non-existent savings will begin now, hopefully with a bonus this month, but I can only hope. Will not be going out clubbing with perhaps one exception for the rest of the year. So life in KL will basically be movies and occasionally stalking Kavi. A cup of brewed coffee at a cafe is still a must, at elast one a week.
The good news it that I still have one extravagant plan for October. I will be going to Sabah on the 6th of October for the first and most likely the last time in my life. I will be staying for a week and will partake in lobster, white water rafting, parasailing and the climbing of the mountain. If I make it back alive I will see the rest of you the following weekend.
Oh this excitement is killing me, so much to do and so little time. I can already feel my psycho power welling up inside me. Now I must pull out of cyberspace and return to the Makai (also known as the office). |

Man I need to get buffed up too. Perhaps you can help me out when you make our sojourns back to Seremban.
Let me know if you have any plans when you come down. Maybe we can go jogging, swimming or to the gym ? I always wanted to exercise but it's tough to do it alone with no one to spot for you.
Could you really bench press your own weight last time ? :P

I used to be able to do it. But not many times. Say about 8 times straight before I had to break.
Will do on the exercise bit, but I'm out of town for this coming weekend. We will plan out stuff when I get back next

Hey guess what? I can actually do exactly one time... and then I just blackout. Oh ok, just kidding. I can't even do that. I just blackout somewhere around the beginning of the very first attempt. Heh heh!

Considering how much I weight, benchpressing my own weight would be very scary.That's why to save the world from such horror, I won't be doing much exercise.
