We’ve come to the end of the year again, and anticipating to enter the new year of 2009. So, what’s you accomplishment this year? what have you archived and what’s not? For me, I have archived half of the the new year resolution & another half, still continue struggling to achieve it. Let’s list down my accomplishment for 2008:

(Refer to my New Year Resolution (31/12/2007) post)

List of things I hope that I can achieve in 2008:

1. To be a braver person

2. Discover my potential; job-wise, talent-wise etc

3. Trying to be extrovert ( OK, now i sound desperate.lol)

4. Try to have more fun with friends

5. Save! save & save!

 

Comment:

1. Yep, I am a braver person than before now. I can drive all the way to the north & south by myself. I can try to fit in the the group of people I never thought would be as fun as dull as they look. ha,ha. 

2. I am still discovering my potential etc.  But the question now.. which road I want to take..? 

3. Erk. I’m extrovert now than before I started working. So, fine :) I’m happy with it. woooohooo.

4. Indeed! I had a blast in a large group outing as well as spending time with a couple of close friends. yep.

5. Erk… not yet achieve this as all I’m doing this year is to spend, spend & spend. lol. Shall carry this resolution to next year. bluek!

 

What do I want to achieve in 2009? :)  

1. Have more (and more) fun! Trip to Fiji with bestie perhaps? :)

2. Enroll into MTech programme. yep! :)

3. Register myself as assistant consultant;

4. Appreciation of nature & knowledge;

5. To be very serious in photography (Photography is crucial in scientist daily life, as well as tree-huggers). Yeah, I’m taking at least 200 photos for my field work;

6. My own crib (with the illustrated interior & finishings from the previous post mentioned) in Tropicana/Dsara/Mutiara/anywhere nearby the campus;

7. Start back on my work-out regime! erk.. this include polishing tennis skills, start to jog, muscle build-up, I want to join back Bodyjam (!!), 

8.  (This is crucial) To overcome my hydro-phobic (sounded like I’m some sort of intermolecular forces)

 

Ok peeps! Got to go back to work! and to plan a New Year dinner tonight :)

Have a blast new year! Cheers.

It is a norm to have a power-shut so frequently here at the Land below the Wind. So if you are new here, don’t be panic. Relax & curse every second you can and walla! The power will be back on, in freakin’ jiffy of time. dang! I was enjoying myself during the bodyjam session when suddenly around 6.40 pm, the whole of City Mall blanketed with darkness. The instructor was just about to combine all the latino cum hiphop moves into one set of movement when suddenly the power got cut-off. I waited until 7.30 pm before going back home. meh! Thought it’s going to be just in an hour of darkness, but it lasted 3 friggin’ hours. meh!

Nothing much happening today at work, except that I went to the EPD with the boss & discussed the current situation of my projects, both my mixed dev & quarry. ah. I can’t discuss much in detail here due to ethics (so my dear stalker reader, you got to ask me in person if you want to know more on the status of my work, meh!). I met with the previous officer & technician and later being introduced to the head of division. 

I submitted my first EMP draft to the boss today! yeay! I’m 1 day early of submitting the draft. :)

Tomorrow I have to attend the consultant meeting for my second project as the boss will be away for the seminar. dang. There will be the biggest developer, C&S Engineers, Architect, M&E, and even Traffic consultants will be there. ah. Some more, there will be KK & KL consultants for the aforementioned parties. I have yet to decide on the other executive I’m going to drag to the meeting. 

I got to study the DP & earthwork plan for tomorrow meeting. I’ll blog again later. ah. 

Yep, I’m officially 23 years old.
Can’t blog much now, I’m at Starbucks City Mall, online & I only got 10 minutes to kill.

And I’m rushing to my bodyjam session at 6.15! Later!

11.06 pm

I just got back home. Phew. So much of workload today.

Anyway, I started off the day rushing to go to the office. Not that I’m late, but I just, struggle to rush to go to the office. eh? LOL

Today is the first day working in the new room along with another 2 EIA executives, we were pretty much very loud in the office, along with the other one brought his laptop & me bringing the macbook to the office. So, yeah. I finished up chapter 3 & 4 today for my quarry project. yeay!

I leave the office around 5.30 pm & rushed to the starbucks for a 13 minutes of ‘online’ before my 6.15 pm bodyjam. LOL. I ended up rushing again to the gym & I didn’t finish up my mocha frap.

I really enjoyed today’s bodyjam session. I think I have found my long-lost passion; dancing. At the end of the session, the instructor approached me & suggesting me to take up the dancing instructor position at Y & said I’m darn good at dancing, so why waste the talent? I’m seriously considering it! Besides having fun at what I love to do, I can get a side income! I can do a part-time at Y! yeay. He will let me know at the next session (which is this friday). So I’ll update y’all about it later then!

To all my dear friends, thank you for remembering & wishing me a happy birthday. Yep, I’m a year wiser; hmmm. My sincerest thanks to Kart, Davyn, Nathan, Azirah, Piare, Gelisa (Gosh she’s always MIA but still remember my birthday, thank you dear Gel), Sidd, Mahfuz, Cath, Sheby, Cynthia, Sing-Yee, Lene, Grace deary, Sumi, Shanaz (thanks for the early birthday card all the way from JB! muaks), Adamz, my cousin, Renaaaa, Dan, and so on. Sorry those name that I didn’t mention here, the list is tooo long but I really do appreciate the wishes. The thoughts that count right?

A special thanks for dear Jessie for the birthday dinner. You stuffed me with too much sushi! We had dinner at the Hana Japanese Restaurant, City Mall. Nice food, great ambience, perfect hospitality. I give 5-stars to the restaurant!

And, thank you for the cute pink peep-toe! You know I fall in love with the heel the moment i lay my eyes on that shoes. Thank you again

Pink ribbon peep-toe

I am SOO going to wear this tomorrow!

On the way back home, I was kinda raced with another black V6 perdana from the Luyang to the Damai highway. LOL.

Too bad, the great one totally forgot that today is my birthday. The great one always be the first to wish me, but guess not this year. The great one probably busy with the exhibition at KL Convention Centre starting tomorrow. Cest la vie. Can’t expect everyone to remember about you. Enough said. The great one only called me when I was at the Starbucks with J after dinner & thought that tomorrow would be my birthday & hoping to be the first to wish me. Guess the great one would be the last to wish me this year.

I’m kinda addicted to Stop & Start by OneRepublic, Touch My body by Mariah Carey, 4 Minutes by Madonna feat. Justin Timberlake & With Yoy by Chris Brown. Ah. Can’t stop humming it in the car & in the office. LOL.

I can’t believe I’m beginning to be a gym bunny. I can’t stop going to the Y and I spend about 2 to 3 hours there, 3 times a week (at least).

I can feel my biceps, lattisimus dorsi & upper abs getting firmer! yeay! ah, and shoulder getting sexier too. mwahahaha. All because of the resistance-workout, cardio & dancing session.

For those first-timer, I reckon y’all to get a personal trainer (PT). They can assist you to achieve your target goal either to increase your fitness level, to lose weight, to tone up or whatever it is. I had 2 PT when I was in KL so this time, PT wouldn’t be necessary for me to achieve my goal as I already plan my own fitness programme.

The first thing you got to identify is the reason why you want to do workout. Some just want to
1. Acknowledging everyone that they ‘go‘ to the gym to work out;
2. Checking people out;
3. To lose weight;
4. To pump up their muscles;
5. To simply killing time in the gym because they got all the time in the world. mwahaha.

For me, I want to increase my fitness level particularly my basal metabolic rate (BMR) as mine is slightly lower than average (means that I can bloat up in no time if i don’t control my food intake; low-metabolism rate, yada yada) & to increase my upper torso strength.

At the same time, I want to reduce my body fat percentage and pump up my muscles. LOL.
So, in order to achieve that, I must do at least 30 minutes of endurance (particularly with machines like treadmill, elliptical trainers or bodyjam session) & a 3 set-20 rep for each major muscles I want tone up. Ok, below is my fitness programme:
Lower body:
1. Leg curl 20 kg/15-20 rep/3 sets (muscle: Hamstrings);
2. Leg extension 20 kg/15 rep/3 sets (muscle: Quadriceps);
3. Leg press 40 kg/15 rep/3 sets (muscles:Quadriceps, gluteneus, hamstrings, gastronemius, soleus);
4. Abductor 25 kg/20 rep/3 sets (muscles: tensor of fascia lata, gluteus)
5. Adductor 20 kg/20 rep/3 sets (muscles: v.v for abductor)
6. Glute 25 kg/15 rep/3 sets (muscles: d butt)

Trunk:
1. Chest incline 10 kg/15 rep/3 sets (muscles: pectoral, delfoids, triceps)
2. Lat machines 15 kg/25 rep/3 sets (muscles: Latissimus dorsi, biceps)
3. Total abdominal 15 kg 50 rep/3 sets (muscles: pectus-abdominis obliques, rectusfemoral ileopsoas)
4. Low row 25 kg/15 rep/3 sets (muscles: latissimus dorsi, biceps, rhomboid)
5. Lower back 20 kg/15 rep/ 3 sets (muscles: quadratus lumborum, sacrospinal)

Upper body:
1. Chess press 10 kg/15 rep/3 sets (muscles: pectoral, deltoids, triceps)
2. Pectoral machine 10 kg/15 rep/3 sets (muscles: pectoral)
3. Shoulder press 10 kg/15 rep/3 sets (muscles: deltoids, triceps)

Thats all from me today. :)

p/s: I’m still figuring out how to connect my ipod to the treadmill. Been looking for the ipod dock but i guess i can’t open up the flap covering it. LOL. or the treadmill is not ipod compatible

After a long 4-days break, I can’t believe I love the monday workload. I know, I know, you must be thinking, what’s wrong with this girl, lovin’ first day of working after a long break & it’s monday? LOL. 

I do, I do! (making the voice of Lisa in answering Homer changing topic from the granddad to waffles in Simpson the movie).  :P   

Today I went to the Project site again with the boss, technician, EPD officers & the Project Proponent. It was a refreshing experience as it require the 4wd to go up to the quarry face to drift due to the soft muddy soil & a walk to the site as well. Later on, after breakfast in the famous Ngau chap in Menggatal, me & the technician went to conduct socio-economic survey surrounding the Project site. On top of that, we were asked by the EPD officer to check where the point source of gravity water used by the nearest settlement to the site. Phew. Finally went back to the office around 3 pm.

Upon reaching the office, the boss asked me to fax letter to another Project proponent in KL regarding the required information for the EIA. The email stated that I should fax it before 4 but I was told about it when it was already 4.06pm. LOL.

I, then rushed to the gym to catch up with the bodyjam session. I introduced to the instructor gym as it would be my first bodyjam class with him. His name is D, btw. (I can’t publish his real name here, sorry). I rawk in the session, again. ha ha. I can’t wait for the wednesday ‘freestyle’ session! :) Supposingly wednesday 7.30pm session is for latino dance workout but the instructor would be on leave until saturday.

Tomorrow would be another interesting day, hopefully. Until then! I’m exhausted from all the workload & workout today. Nite! :)

Mua!
