Day 113

Friday's are always a weird day for exercising for me. I can leave work earlier on Fridays (4:45pm!!) but there's never any earlier classes that I want to join. Maybe I should start going for Body Pump! But I'm currently not doing any weight training until I get all the excess US pigging out fats completely rid of. So I'm currently doing cardio-cardio-cardio...

Body Jam with Jason was fun... half-heartedly cycled for 15 minutes before the class started. Was watching this program called "Pirate Master" which looks like Survivor. I dunno...

We did a mix of old and new tracks... had Don't You Worry Bout A Thing / Let's Get Loud, Escapade, Scandalous... and then one aunty said she wanted to do the performance track from the latest release. WTF!!!! Damn difficult ok! Anyway, it was only my second time doing the release. It's damnnnn confusing, but it's cool that we did it anyway cos I think I'm getting a hang of the steps!!

Hmm... I missed dancing. :( :( :(

Day 112

Raining like mad just when it was about time to leave work. Hate it when there's torrential thunderstorms like that. :( So I missed Hot Yoga, but was feeling a little bit itchy for some exercise (probably has a LOT to do with a beach holiday in the next month!). 15 minutes on the strider and 15 minutes on the Cardio Wave machine.

You know what, I'm getting pretty used to the Cardio Wave machine. I remember when I couldn't even take my hands off the handlebars. Now I can "float" without holding onto the bars, and heck, I can be standing or squatting or back-to-front on the machine.

What can I say? I'm excellent. :P

Day 111

Yalah, I know I haven't been going to the gym in ages. Barely more than 10 times for January... seems like I'm losing interest in gymming again. I've been going to the gym for nearly 3 years now, n what have I achieved. Okayla, got lose weight... okay la, my body fat percentage is lower. I do feel good about myself ... or perhaps I've just given up and accepted my weaknesses. :P I have been trying to minimise my calves (wtf) and thighs for 3 yrs, but i dun care la... i'm just gonna make them fucking muscular. Should skinny girls or skinny ah bengs ever dare to mock me, i can kick them like a football into the drain...

Damn a lot of internal anger in me at the moment... damn I hate the people who park in Taipan. Today is the 23423523523 time someone double park behind me. Stupid la.. you wanna double park, make sure there's someone in the car, or u are keeping an eye out on your own fucking car. Instead I was waiting for 1423525 minutes... really angry. The guy who came out eventually try to be "nice" and smile and give me thumbs up shite when I reversed out. Wanna ask him to stick it up where the sun don't shine!!!!!!!! -__________________- Damn angry. The other time, one Indian gangster looking guy slowly took his own sweet time waddling out of the store to reverse the car.. and gave me a murderous look because I hornnnnnnnnnn him so loudly. WTF DO WRONG ALREADY STILL DARE TO ACT LIKE I'M IN THE WRONG.

Double parkers... can go burn in Hell!!

Can't think of any creative curses, so I'll stop here for the moment.

Actually, was quite happy in class today. :D
There was someone shadowing Terence, so I was afraid that it'll be all new releases.. well, I think we did 1. Or 2. Forgot already! I just remember the old tracks, erm... Bagpipes, So What, Power of Love (nyehehhee... actually I wanted to faint at this point, esp when he announced he wants to do a circle track! And the reason I'm so tired is... I was on the Cardio Wave machine for 15 minutes before the class started. ^_^ ), Jump, some Backstreet Boys song for conditioning (super didn't do my tricep pushups.. I think I give up la) and "I'll Stand by You" for cool down.

Today lim pei very angry, cannot write in detail.

The end!

Day 110

20 minutes on the Cardio Wave and I'm back home babeh! Tuesdays rock! And tomorrow is a holiday, happy holiday everyone! :D

AND...
Quite tulan... yesterday TWO people... TWO AUNTIES freaking tried to barge in on me in the changing room, like wtf?? Did I not freaking VELCRO the curtain to the wall? There was one feller which was in the midst of TEARING through the velcro to barge in... damn wtf, and then there was one who was like boxing thru the curtain (if she hits someone , then she'll know got human inside.. what a painful - for me - way to see if there's someone).

Damn bodoh la. IF THE VELCRO IS DOWN, THAT MEANS SOMEONE IS INSIDE.
LEARN THAT, STUPIDS.

Day 109

Can't blog much due to trauma & sleepiness! Left work early on a day where there was no point in leaving early as the only class that I wanted to go for starts at 7:45pm anyway. :P So I was entertaining myself, doing leg press here (can still maintain my last weight lifted, unlike my tricep extensions... cannot start at 15kg anymore! pathetic!), 6 minutes on the cardio wave, 5 minutes on the strider....

Then it was Body Combat with Terence... seriously I don't think I can go for his class anymore in the future!! He always helps me with my moves... but .... I don't wanna get killed by the Dangerous Guy who freaking keeps coming nearer and nearer to me unintentionally.
*breathe in breathe out*
Actually Dangerous Guy is quite good ady la... I just like calling him Dangerous Guy because he's damn powerful (and also because of the occasional coming too near to me and I freak out that he's going to punch me in the face). And I'm esp afraid when we have to shuffle left / right. But he's quite considerate ady, moving further back / front when it's the sidekicks.

But still I'm damn scared la. I can still remember the look on the lady who kena punched by him... TWICE.

Shit la, I'm a damn bitchy gym member la.

Anyway... the second trauma part was seeing that Adrian attending the class... I thought he "kai dou" already for the operation.. is it a good idea to do BC some more when you have injuries?!!?! When you're feeling PAIN?!?!?! Are you mad?!?!?! Are these polite questions to ask someone?!!?!?

Regardless ... class was awesome as usual. Terence did the first 3 - 4 tracks, Emma took over for 3 tracks, and then it was back to Terence for the Muay Thai, final power track, conditioning and cool down.

Warm up = Behind the Cow and The Killer's Somebody Told Me.
1st Track = We're Not Gonna Make It (this one has kinda nice choreo, I likey. It's from one of the newer releases, so it gives me hope for the new releases. :P)
2nd Track = *forgotten* I think it's an old(er) track. A "boxing" track.

Emma took over for :
Tracks 4, 5, 6 from the latest release.

+ the latest ginga track. ICKY! I HATE THIS TRACK! Nothing to do with the instructors... it's just damn complicated punya choreo and all this weird slow shuffling and then suddenly must knee & kick & ginga so quickly. Crap... I realise that I'm treating BC like how I treat dance classes. To me rhythm is everything, must fit in with the music and all that. When I don't like a song, or I don't like the movements for it, then I just slack off. :D

+ I don't know whether the ginga one is Lights Out or Elevator. Anyway, the "other" one is the one with the punch in front and then punch DOWNWARDS move which is SOOO tough to do! Esp when Terence pointed out that when punching DOWNWARDS the elbow must be pointing upwards .. like your arm must be near your face. *hard to explain* Basically after doing it for two times or so, your arm gets tired and it starts sinking lower and lower until it's resting happily at your waist. =) Must persevere to do things the CORRECT way... even though I'm about 50% slower doing things the CORRECT way. :P

+ Shut Up n Drive where Emma said we must accentuate the kicks and knees and back kicks and such and not do the choreo like we're dancing. :P I admit, I like the choreo for Shut Up and Drive because it's so danceable! But when you have to freaking kick and knee with force, it's quite tiring lor! I thought we were supposed to take it easy for this track! I thought this was recovery!!

The MT track is "Going Insane". Or "Gone Insane". *don't remember* Damn difficult la. Never mind, simply do only. Terence can only restart a track once MAX, keep that in mind people. :P

Last track was fun --- Ride on Time. Eh, this song is damn nice la. Esp the choreo towards the end, switching sides and clapping. =) Die die also found the energy to continue jumping around like a monkey.

Sound of the Underground for conditioning --- kinda died after 2 push ups. This would've been ok if not for the stupid Who's Your Daddy Body Attack conditioning track. Holy heck, my right shoulder has not been the same ever since.

and Breathe Easy for cool down! Pauline would be happy if she was there... nice track for cool down. =)

Got questions to ask instructor after class but too paiseh la, got so many people going towards him. T_T I go find another instructor. T_T

Day 108

Blogging this on Sunday, but this is my usual Saturday work out at Jaya 33. No mood to blog much about it (more on that later)... about the work out first :
1) Woke up late for Body Combat, so I SKIPPED it as usual
2) Went for Body Attack where Jason did the entire new release. Just realised the "Who's Your Daddy" song is DAMN nice but all those push ups are BLOODY TORTUROUS!
3) Went for Dance Mania with Danny, and this time we did a really nice choreo & simple to do as well. It's a "tribal" kind of choreo, with fierce and outrageous movements. There were only 6 of us in his class, so we did all kinds of formations ("v", circle, mixture of both, face-offs, etc). It was BLOODY FUN! Please join his class on Saturday, it's really fun and we need more people! :D


Anyway, the sad part is I kena saman for parking at my "usual" parking spot which is near the residential area of Seksyen 13. Bloody hell! Can you imagine residents with more than 2 cars? They won't be able to park anywhere legally! WTF! I'm so mad now. I refuse to pay for that saman. There's no LEGAL place to park near residential area? What if the authorities decide to saman me for parking under the tree outside my house? Should I build a parking spot IN THE SKY to put my car?!!?

REFUSE TO PAY REFUSE TO PAY REFUSE TO PAY.
Some more it's like RM100!!

Anyway, I refuse to pay but I don't wanna wind up with 1000 samans, so I'll have to park at JAya33 from now onwards, which I REALLY am reluctant to do because the stupid parking lot has such NARROW ways to navigate. Seriously... I think a Storm would have trouble going up the slope. Fuck la. Kena saman or get scratches on my car? Wtf.

Maybe I'll just go to Jaya 33 less often... which I LAGI reluctant to do cos I fcukin love that place. *sigh*

Day 107

I've been deprived of dancing... imagine my joy at the prospect of dancing non-stop for a straight TWO hours!!! Who else would have such a class if not Ronicia! My boss and my senior were not around today, so I dashed out of work at 5:45pm. Was in time for Funky Line, and followed up with Dance Mania (which Ronicia calls "Power of Dance").

What can I say... for some reason nowadays I'm less confident about my movement. Feel like I can't remember the dance sequences and I can't imagine why. But going for her class brought back my confidence because the steps were easy and most of all FREAKING FUN!! I was beaming throughout two hours... so happy to have my dancing shoes on again. :)

My favorite funky line movement has gotta be for Avril Lavigne ft Lil' Mama's Girlfriend. The dance steps are to intimidate and somewhat... to cheer someone on also. It's very nice. And when we do it non-stop around the classroom, it's damn nice. Can you imagine a mob of ladies going after someone and telling them "hey hey you you, I don't like your girlfriend?"

Kinda scary actually. :P

And I love Fatman Scoop & Crooklyn Clan's Dance for cooldown. Did it before in Jaya 33 so was more familiar with the steps here. Again, I like rather "aggressive" kinda dance moves, so this one was nice too. Oh, and the remix Sexyback was kinda fun once we all got the hang of the moves!

Dance Mania theme today was more of ... oldies. We had Footloose, Jitterbug (Wake Me Up Before You Go Go) among other early 2000s stuff like Ricky Martin and Las Ketchup. HAhaha, I had so forgotten the Las Ketchup dance! It's kinda stupid but fun to do.

My legs are aching now... and guess what? More dance tomorrow! Hope Jason won't do any new tracks ady... sick of it! :p
