Hows's life?


Things have changed a lot lately.
Just started on my new job. Learning to adapt to the new working culture here.
Reshuffling my gym schedule to fit the new working hours.
All's well :)

Weekend @The Good Life

Saturday ---- brunch with mum, went to hair salon for rebond, cut and treatment....dinner with mum@ taiwanese restaurant...facebooking till late night

Sunday --- Japanese buffet with family-->read some books in Bookshop while waiting for mum to get her haircut--> chilling out at home--> porridge dinner outside with family -->watch tvb series i got from TVB king... --> itemise to-do list to get my next week sorted out :) --> pack up gym bag for my next Gym session

Short points that I must get off my chest...just ignore me.. i am talking to myself

  • next time I will do pin straight rebonding instead of natural rebonding.... seems like am very anal about straight hair and for some reason feel kiasu that my rebonding is not straight enough hahahah
  • can take leave for next rebonding session - saloon more likely to be empty during office hours weekdays..probably take leave on a Wed/Thurs...
  • next visit to the salon = 20% discount for rebonding & treatment! yayyyyyy

Learn to adjust yourself to the conditions you have to endure, but make a point of trying to alter or correct conditions so that they are most favorable to you.

New Haircut


Went for another haircut today.

So far this is my 4th experiment with different stylists since December last year.

Today I went to Sunny @ Shunji Matsuo NG saloon in Desa Sri Hartamas.

Quite like the haircut at first sight. Will give it a few more days - hope that it will still look nice after I wash it myself

I miss the peaceful yet good-workout Klev's balance classes

Misses Klev's Balance class. Will I ever be able to enjoy the tracks 17Again, We'Re running out of TIme and Show Me Heaven the same way agn?

I remember vividly...

- for the song "17 again", when we did the 'tabletop' pose, he will ask us what we wish to do if we were 17 again.

- for the song "Running Out of Time", when it comes to the chorus, for the back track, he will asked us to take off our hands from the floor, and he will say "Look! No hands!" (in a childlike fascnination tone)

- for the song Show Me Heaven - he sometimes will sing along


Sigh, choowie said that I am too emo. But how could I not be? After 5 and half years, the classes, the amazing feelings have become a part of my life. How can I easily tear it apart just like that?


I shiver at the thought that one day, other regular instructors like Keny & Manja may leave, just like that.

WOW.

IF that really happens, it's hard to enjoy gym classes the same way again, ever.
But like what Klev said, it's time to move on.

A Sudden Change

I found out today ( a little too late) that Klevin's dropping all the classes for good.
Managed to talk to him after his Pump, right before my Attack class.
Asked if the news were true.
Seems like it is. Permanently.

Many thoughts were circling in my mind when I was doing the bodyAttack class.
I just missed his last classes - pump, balance..yes, especially balance.

As I was doing the warm up track for Attack, my mind went back to the days in Maxis, when I discovered his late Thursday classes. And how he always managed to make the class fun & challenging and yet peaceful & destressing at the same time. And how the fire drill always seemed to fall on Thursdays, disrupting our meditation & relaxation session.

Time flies. It never occurred to me that one day he will stop teaching. At least not this soon, not this sudden. I will be hard to find someone who can give us the aura of peace feeling, and a good workout at the same in a Balance class.
And for some reasons, he has also disappeared from Facebook... :(

What a pity.
