Cycling, blading.... healthy living?

You can say i'm getting more conscious about my body and... seriously i really really need to get in shape. When your mom says that you're getting fat, you know that there's something needed to be done. The big problem is... not about getting it started, but MAINTAINING it.

About 2 weeks bike, I had the idea of cycling to work instead. My workplace is reasonably near, just about a 10 minute bus ride away. If I could cut down on the daily transport fees and sweat a little before and after work, hey it could really make a difference somewhere $$$.

So I did. Went online to search for a used bike and.... weirdly enough i got myself a bike meant for a young adult. I don't know, I somehow prefer something smaller than a convention 26 inch size.... besides wanted to try to see how it goes. The first fews days was alright, good thing my workplace has shower facility.

The following week i stopped. Partly cos i was getting real tired every morning when i wake up. It's like i need more time to "warm up"... but at the same time i want more sleep!

Gonna try cycle again this Wednesday. Must push myself, must push myself!!!!

Next, the thought of getting a pair blades. The past 2 weekends I was at East Coast Park and.... seeing those ppl gliding through, zipping here and there, listening to music... very very influenced by them! i had thoughts of getting a pair previously, after a session with Stef some months ago, but this time I'm getting more serious about it. Once she gets her own pair, I' gonna go get mine! Weekend thingy... mmmm *Imagines himself blading like a pro in East Coast*

These days, it seems like almost everyone around me are getting sick... fever, flu, cold.. the siffles, yeah especially the sniffles. Surprising not me. :D Probably because last week i was on a water melon bing for 4 days, even had that for lunch alone on one occasion. My friend had warned me about the eating to much due to high natural sugar content... thank goodness for that, made me think twice about doing such a stunt again. However it did erm, gave my body a "system defragmentation and removal of junk files" to my bowel system :p


Half a year has gone and life is still going pretty alright for me.... but i have a feeling i will get bored or sick of it in time to come... I have this strange sensation coming to me, just wanna see how it goes, mmmm....
