New Resolution

A while ago I was in an elevator with 2 other OLs ('office ladies'). We do not know each other but I noticed that all 3 of us have one thing in common. All of us were carrying a red plastic bag containing a white take-away styrofoam box. Moments later, before entering my office I spotted another OL from another office nearby carrying a similar platic bag with 2 styrofoam boxes!

Can you imagine - how many hundreds or thousands of these boxes are generated as trash daily?

We have to stop using. In fact, nobody should be manufacturing these anymore.

I have made a personal pledge to bring my own container to be used whenever I need to take away food!

6 months

This is my 2nd attempt to write this entry. Wrote and deleted it about an hour ago.

Six months came and went - so quickly that it seem like a very short time. But..it's not short at all considered that so much has happened. Valuable Time & Money lost in time. Allow me to recall as much as I can.

• I went & recovered from surgery to remove some endometriotic cysts
• I completed 6 mths treatment for endometriosis to lower the chances more cysts
• I completed 25 sessions of personal training at the gym - managed to lose some fat
• I finally got my eyes lasered - I no longer need glasses!
• I have not had any vacation yet!

• A friend got married
• The same friend got pregnant
• The same friend is now very pregnant
• The same friend is now anxiously waiting to be a mother!

• A friend found out that her mom has cancer
• The same friend fought tire-lessly to cure her mom
• The same friend lost her mom
• The same friend is bravely moving on with her life

• Two friends was struggling to cope in a new country
• One has just decided that she has had enough will come back after all

• Another friend recently went to work in another country
• Another friend has decided to quit work enjoy life for a while

And..by now..all of us are connected in Facebook..and through facebook...I met many other friends!

Without a Gym

I am officially without a gym membership. Was interested in the new True Fitness branch in Jaya (it has a swimming pool) but the current package is running at RM4561!! Bloody expensive. My current credit cards only allow 12 mths instalment - that's about RM380 a mth! I'm still paying for the lasik treatment & the PT sessions (which has since ended). Really do not want to end up with such heavy monthly instalments.

There are 2 other credit cards which allows 24 mths & 36 mths instalments - which is a good deal. Card X is a Free for Life card but surcharge is applicable for instalment purchases - WHAT kind of term is that??? Card Y is even worse - annual fee is applicable, % fee waiver applicable if the sufficient amount is spent.

All this inconveniences..argh!

So..what do I do this weekend? The longer I drag, more fats will accumulate. Not that I work extremely hard at the gym la..but it does help me to keep off some fats.

What the heck..I'll probably just walk the dog. The doctor has asked me to stop exercising for 10 days anyway.
