Improvement in Operation Check Up! =)

Remember that my personal trainer (Ms. Cheryl) did one operation check up with me, last week? Yes today finally I went to the gym after around a week of sleeping at home, or more on indulging myself at Lanai! =p I was quite determined today, and although my calf seemed to cramp anytime, that didn't stop me! Check out this post , and you will know what I'm talking about! So today again I bumped into her and asked her to carry out the check up for me! Again it was the same series of tasks: 1) Running on the treadmill for 20 minutes (I ran 4km with average speed of 12 km/h and maximum speed of 16 km/h during the last 60m). 2) Rowing for 500m (I did it in 1 minutes 51 seconds, slightly slower but still okay!) 3) Chin up with reduction of 20kg from my current weight (I did it for 5 times consecutively but it was 5kg heavier than last week's!) 4) Push up as many times as I can (I did 40 times straight, a great improvement from 25 times last week!) 5) Sit up as many times

Joining New Class for the First time in College! =)

So I bet everyone is wondering how was my first day in the new class thus far! If you read up my previous post then you will know that my holidays have officially ended (although it's going to start again after next week haha!) =p Quite a number of my friends were asking me about my new class, so I decided to blog about it! Just to let you guys know! =) Well, in the morning I went to the CAL programme office to get the timetable for my new class from Ms. Hema. I thought I was late at school cause I reached college 10 minutes after 8am. But when I looked at the timetable, I was quite happy cause first two periods were LAN and Thinking Skills (free periods for now)! =p So my class was at 10am today! =p First period was Physics lab class. I introduced myself to Mr. Subra (my new Physics lecturer) and I just entered the lab! He was quite helpful in the sense that he didn't leave me standing alone at one corner, awkwardly! He assigned me to a table with my new classmates and sta

School Break is OVER! =O

Oh nooooooooooooo!!! I'm back to school now, err... college! =p After 3 days of orientation programme at Lanai, my mood has yet to be switched back to the nerd me! Wait, I think I AM a nerd? Ha! Just kidding! At least I have my life and... nerds don't? Most of the nerds will probably bury themselves in books for 24/7, but definitely NOT ME! I don't like to study! =p okay this might sound disappointed and harsh to certain people, but I will still continue my study to achieve my dreams! Don't worry haha! =p I slept at 1.30am yesterday after finished watching TV drama. what the heck? I know my class starts today! But but, after more than 2 months of sleeping late (and waking up late of course), I still prone to sleep late (although slightly earlier yesterday). This is what they called as biological clock. You couldn't actually sleep if you tend to stay up late (or early in the morning). You will probably be having insomnia! I usually sleep at 3-4am, but yesterday nig

Orientation Programme at Lanai Kijang (Day 3)! =)

Continue from the previous post, I will write everything about the final day of the orientation programme at Lanai (which was yesterday)! The final day, in my opinion, was the most enjoyable yet challenging day! Although there was none of the bank staffs invited to share their experiences like the days before, but I've learnt quite a lot from the activities conducted yesterday. I woke up relatively late compared to the previous day in the morning (7.30am), so I sort of rushed through everything and went to dining hall to have had breakfast. Again, the cakes were always there in every meal! =p  After the breakfast, interesting things happened. We had discussed about a project on the day before yesterday (Saturday), and we were supposed to give presentation based on our own character given. The case scenario was this: In 30 minutes, a passing comet will destroy all human life on Earth and resulting in a period of cold and darkness for the next 3 months, or maybe even longe

Orientation Programme at Lanai Kijang (Day 2)! =)

So I'm back after 3 days 2 nights staying at Lanai Kijang!!! Just in case you still don't know what is Lanai Kijang, it's a resort owned by the Central Bank of Malaysia (BNM) to accommodate visitors attending events organised by the bank, staffs coming from other states and delegates from abroad. It's located at Jalan Dato Onn, near the Headquarter of the Bank and of course the Bank Negara KTM Station. Alright, so back to my second day's story! I hope you guys do enjoy the previous post and oh, it's updated with nice pictures grabbed from one of my close friends, Gracey aka Nemo! =p new nickname ha! xD Credit to Gracey! =) Lanai has been quite famous for its awesome sumptuous food menu and I bet you guys really can't wait to see a few pictures of it! =p Here you go~  *again credit to Grace! =) The Residence Hall (Dining hall)! Awesome right? =D  Nice diversity of cakes!!! It was one of the favourites where everyone tried to grab! =p Oh a few ban

Orientation Programme at Lanai Kijang (Day 1)! =)

Finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!The day that I've been waiting since last year!!! yeah that's right the Orientation programme organised by the Bank! Since last year the Bank staffs didn't manage to organise one for my batch's scholars, they included us along with the juniors! No matter what, the first day was quite fun!!! But I left my camera at my laptop's bag (was at Lanai Kijang by then), and we were at Sasana Kijang (another Bank's building) for the whole day. So yeah, too bad no pictures, yet. But I will definitely post up later, if I managed to get some pictures from my friends. =p Taylor's scholars in June 2010 intake! =)  The itinerary today started off with ice breaking planned by my college's scholars, and it was quite fun. Well done people! Nothing much in this slot for me to talk about, otherwise would be quite boring. Next slot was the one that I'm going to talk a lot now. Apparently it's so much more interesting than the ice breaking s

Depressing =( , yet Motivating Result! =)

Remember I told you on my previous post that I've made my vow to reduce my weight from 85kg to 75kg, yesterday? After 5 months of going to gym, surprisingly my weight is no longer 85kg!!! Bad news is, my weight increased from 85kg to 89kg!!! O.O FATTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What the... heck? I think I know why. I was in holiday mood, and I skipped gym from early October to early November! I usually go to gym 3 times per week, on alternate days (Monday, Wednesday and Friday)! Right, I was told not to go gym on consecutive days as my body would need rest before commencing the next session.  Okay, increasing weight doesn't necessarily mean increasing body fat percentage. It could mean increase in muscle mass but decrease in body fat percentage. But my case is totally the opposite!!!!!!!!! What the!!! How could that happen? My body fat percentage increased and my muscle mass decreased back to square one (before joining the gym). How how howwwww??? That's absurd.  Bef

Post-Workout! @_@

Told ya I'm going to gym today! And here I am, tired like crazy, yet feeling extremely satisfied of the workout just now. Oh by the way, here's a song from one of my favourite childhood cartoons 'Spirit - Stallion of the Cimarron' named 'Here I am', enjoy! =))) Okay okay I know I'm random! =p I just feel like listening to this song, okay? Haha okay! Right so back to the post-workout! What I did today was considered quite intense for me. I saw my Personal Trainer, Miss Cheryl today and since she was quite free, she carried out a test on me. I was required to do a series of workouts in certain period of time, and here's the list:  1) Running on the treadmill for 20 minutes (I ran 3.3km in 20 minutes with average speed of 9.5km/h)  2) Rowing for 500m (I did it in like 1 minutes 48 seconds)  3) Chin up  with reduction of 25kg from my current weight (I did it for 5 times consecutively)  4) Push up as many as I can (I did 25

Vow to Myself! =p

Hello readers! =p I bet you've noticed that I'm quite active these days (is it? Just two posts consecutively on two different days!), cause I'm having holidays!!! I've practically nothing much to do at home, and guess where I am? I'm at Casa now! Some of my friends who know where Casa is would definitely say, "omg Casa suckkkkssss, what the heck are you doing there?".  Remember that I said from my previous post, that I'm going to gym today? Yes, no? So I've made a vow to myself that I must go to gym today! Not so much on weight training, but rather emphasize more on doing cardio exercises. Just in case you don't know what is cardio exercise, it's more on fat burning activities like jogging, running, cycling, rowing and some other physically intense activities at the free style corner of the gym. Rowing Machine  Treadmill Hang on, since when I've joined a gym? You know, I have had refraine

Happy Holidays people! =)

I've been having holidays for the past... 2 months? And I'm going back to school pretty soon, cause most of the A-Levels students have finished their A2 or AS, and that juniors are starting their classes again, on 25th November, just to resume their A2 syllabus. Thank God that I've finished the whole A2 syllabus, but yet I almost forget everything since my brain has been shutting down for the past few months. The only subjects that remain slightly fresh in my mind are Maths and Further Maths, due to the preparation for Cambridge interview and test. But that was more than a month ago! I hope I still know how to prove all the Calculus formulae (chain rule, product rule etc), for fun! =p What? Stop staring at me like I'm crazy or something for learning how to prove those! O.O I had to, cause I couldn't prove anti-derivative of 1/x is ln x, during my mock interview. I've learnt most of the proving's since then, but none of them was being asked during the

Updates and Surprises! =D

Helloooooo! =p  It's been really long time but oh well, I hope you all won't blame me for such a long hiatus! What can I say, I will try to post everything recent happening to me here in a single post! But it's kinda illogical though for me to post everything since March this year, so here I would put everything in a list, just to update you all in case you don't know me well enough. Most of my friends especially those in Facebook would definitely know happening's in my life thus far. So here it goes:  1) Finished my AS in May/June 2011, and attained reasonably good results (although not something to be proud of yet grateful for that!) Thank God that I've got 3A's (Economics, Maths, Physics) and a B. Guess what, Thinking Skills. It doesn't really matter since most universities in general won't even look at this in their consideration to give offers, anyway. Ms. Yoong (my TKS lecturer) will sometimes stare at me as if she's gonna kill me cau
