Insanity
I've gained so much weight since I got back from USA 2 years ago.
8kgs to be exact.
I cannot afford to get ANY fatter.
I can hardly fit into my clothes.
I have embarked on the insanity journey that will be ongoing for 2 months.
Daily exercises with meal plans.
Daily exercises with meal plans.
The meal plans are hard to follow but I control my calorie intake to make up for the lack of discipline to have 5 meals a day.
This is really the DVD with the most insane workout packed into it.
I've been doing it for 2 weeks and have lost 2kgs.
BF is doing it with me and he has also lost close to 2kgs :D
Weight aside, my tummy is significantly smaller.
I feel healthier and even more motivated to carry on.

Everyday my muscles ache like mad but I'm happy that it is!
I must be crazy but I am enjoying it even though it is tough.

Trip to Beijing (Day 1)
17- 24 December 2012
Beijing
Because my brother was having his exchange in Beijing, our family decided to pay him a visit as well as bring some of his stuff back. We were not sure how much stuff he wants us to bring home so we brought 3 pretty huge luggages. Air tickets were on promotion via Singapore airlines. I always look forward to food onboard but there was nothing interesting about this meal. I really love their bread and butter though :D
As my dad snores REALLY LOUDLY in his sleep, I refused to stay in the same room as him so before we left for Beijing, We book 161 hotel (more to the budget side) as the price was reasonable for 2 rooms. Reviews for that hotel was not bad. Before we arrived in Beijing, we have already notified the hotel beforehand that we will be checking in late due to our flight. However, when we arrived at the hotel, we were told that the rooms are not ready as usual check in time is 12 noon. They decided to put us at their sister hotel (Super 8) until our rooms were ready the next day. The stay at Super 8 was horrible. The rooms smelled bad, floor and toilet were dirty too. I got so paranoid that I feel that their bed/ bedsheets/pillow/ towels were dirty. Thinking that we will only be there for 1 night, we decided to just ignore the state of the room.
We did not have wifi or china number for my brother to contact us, so we told him to meet us at 161 hotel after his class. Instead of waiting around at Super 8 for a phone all to go back to 161 hotel, we decided that we will just go ahead back to the hotel even if it was way before 12 noon (offical check in time). We were told by the reception of Super 8 that our rooms are still not ready. As we were really insistent on going over, they had to call 161 hotel. As Super 8 could not explain the situation to us, they handed the phone over to us to 161 hotel could speak to us. We explained what we wanted to do and to our horror, they told us that we might have to wait till 5-6pm before we know if we can return to 161 hotel. OH WAIT, not only that. They were not even sure if we could even return to 161 hotel throughout the whole duration of our stay. It will be really ridiculous for us to be sitting around just to wait for their phone call. We asked them why can't we know if the room will be ready, they could not answer us. If they could not get the room ready for us, tell us beforehand so we can make other arrangements. We were pretty angry then so we went out, got a local number to contact my brother. Updated him of our situation and decided that we will not go ahead with the booking. As the reservation was make via Agoda, I made a phone call to Singapore's office. I am thankful that I managed to get a full refund for this.
We went off to Holiday Inn and we settled for 1 room. I have to endure my dad's snores for 4 nights and the thought of it was torturous.
After we have settled accommodation issue, we could finally relax. PHEW.
The room at Holiday Inn was not bad!
The 2 beds in the room can sleep 4 people.

Quarter life crisis?
I think this is the point of time in life that I don't know what i'm doing with my life.
I don't find anything that interest me, don't have a goal in life,
Can't seem to find the motivation/ passion to persist on.

Botanic Gardens
Visited the botanic gardens last week as Bee wanted to take pictures of trees for his FYP.
Can't remember when was the last time I visited the place and it was so much nicer than what I have expected!
No other complains other than the weather :P
They have really nice trees there.
Played with the pop colour mode on my EP1 and the pictures turned out really nice.
Love the colours <3
We met this uncle who has this super adorable Saymoed!
He is sooooo tame and friendly!
Can't help but wonder how hot he is feeling with his thick coat of fur :x
Our dates now consists of hunting of stuff for Bee to shoot till he his done with his FYP.
So when he's busy with his stuff, I make plans for myself too!
Work has been pretty crazy these few weeks and it's going to be as busy for the whole of this month :(
I must be crazy.
