is there anything bad about good appetite?
google / yahoo / bing and i couldn’t find anything
but i worry about my good appetite
i don’t believe my daily low intensity workout
could result in good appetite
my weight did not increase
it also did not decrease
and that’s “bad” for me
so there really nothing bad about good appetite?
i really like to know ……………

End of year is nice to play some oldies.
Alan Parsons Project – Sirius Eye in the Sky (Live 1995)
Add lyrics so can sing along 
Don’t think sorry’s easily said
Don’t try turnin’ tables instead
You’ve taken lots of chances before
But I ain’t gonna give anymore
Don’t ask me
That’s how it goes
Cause part of me knows what you’re thinkin’
Don’t say words you’re gonna regret
Don’t let fire rush to your head
I’ve heard the accusation before
And I ain’t gonna take any more
Believe me
The sun in your eyes
Made some of the lies worth believing
Chorus:
I am the eye in the sky
Looking at you
I can read your mind
I am the maker of rules
Dealing with fools
I can cheat you blind
And I don’t need to see any more
To know that
I can read your mind, [looking at you] I can read your mind,[looking at you]i can read your mind [looking at you] i can read your mind
Don’t leave false illusion behind
Don’t cry, I ain’t changin’ my mind
So find another fool like before
Cause I ain’t gotta live anymore
Believin’
Some of the lies
While all of the signs are deceiving
(chorus)
LIFE
It was slow & easy till late week someone slap with last minute tasks. Coincidentally, I was on leave on Friday prior before this late request. Maybe I shouldn’t have apply leave, becoz strange as it seems, it usually not peaceful. *tsk tsk tsk*
HEALTH
Actually started to learn swimming all over again and been loving it. Every weekends, I actually look forward to go swimming. I was quite lazy to go swimming in the past becoz I find it a hassle actually, but I think I just got hook now. Hopefully my swimming improves quickly, not looking to swim fast but rather focusing to swim more effortlessly!
And I realize swimming actually burn more calories than running on the elliptical say for an hour becoz my weight went down more after the swim practice. Besides, it’s also more gentle on the joints!
Weight actually went down below 85kg *happy*, but I knew it will go back up once I take my dinner. Anyway, a moment of happiness is better than none. Let’s see how it goes next week.

One of my fav song from the past … just look at the crowd, awesome!

There seems to be an invisible support at 85. Whenever I reach near 85 ~ 86, an invisible force seems to be pushing it back to 86 ~ 87. Of coz I’m talking about my weight. Having religiously running on elliptical machine for 2 months or so, I had expected to reach 80. Sadly that didn’t happen.
Whatever, I’m still happy with my new simple workout routine, just run @ aerobic heart rate zone! And I do really find running a good way to burn my calories away. Now in Dec, I have increase from daily 30min to 60min, burning about 700++ calories per workout (if machine reading is right). Breaking 85 or not, I guess I’m contented for now that it isn’t go up & I’m feeling refresh after every workout.
FOOD
One fine sunday morning, I decide to try out “Freshly Baked by Le Bijoux”. I love freshly baked breads so the shopname already got me interested.
Unfortunately, it was a disappointment. I had order their signature BLT and to my dismay, the breads were not even warm. Just cold bread with some lettuce, bacon & avocado slapped in between. I have to ask to lightly toast, I think they toast the whole sandwich, so the lettuce came out sogging after that. *bleah*

Can’t find any good value for blogging and been thinking to stop. Yeah, it’s sure good to journal but I’ve been doing that separately. so it sort like double work. So taking blogging off should allow me to have some more time to think & plan. hmmmm …..

Picking up daily workout routines once again
I think I shouldn’t focus too much on weight to avoid stressing myself, instead just stick to routine should suffice
MOTIVATE
I watched the “BUCKET LIST” recently about 2 men (starred by Morgan Freeman & Jack Nicholson) who were both diagnosis with terminal lung cancer and given several months to live. These 2 complete strangers decides to write a list to go ahead achieving them before they kick the bucket.
While I do have such a list (I didn’t knew what was bucket list then), I also do have a bad habit of procrastination. So things got focus & then off focus whenever heavy workloads kicks in. And worry here and there and, so eventually it never materialize.
And I was wondering what heck is happening to me!
Perhaps I was worrying too much unnecessarily?
Perhaps my list wasn’t too clearly defined?
Perhaps my focus was swaying too much?
Perhaps …………….??????
Oh well, the movie did it me an idea … perhaps I should just imagine that I got only several months, perhaps that should get my butts moving. Does it sounds so silly? LOLz
Any which way, I need relook at my list and have some action plan going.
And I found that if I ever ran out of ideas, I can always head to bucketlist.org to hunt for more!

Finally switch my old mobile to HTC HD. I have chosen HD2 over iphone primary becoz of its large screen, but quite frustrated that Microsoft not going to support Windows Phone 7 on HD2! Anyway, who cares about Win Phone 7 when the Android port for HD2 is finally coming!

Strange that my cough just wouldn’t stop though it has tone down considerably 
PHOTO ~ Mountain Tortoise Me!
Didn’t know Tilt plates are install in some (probably old) building to measure the slope. I guess they are afraid to be the next leaning tower of Pisa?
Didn’t know we can fly kite at Marina Barrage! I thought it was just another darn dam, surprising the area is bustling with outdoor activities like rock climbing, canoeing & of cause go fly kite!
It been many many moons ago since I took the bus (in fact SMRT too). And just the other day I had to take the bus to collect my serviced scooter, and surprised that the double decker bus have a display that counts the seats available up stair!

FOOD
Daily Scoop Avocado Ice cream ~ yummy & sweetness is just right!
Taiwan Kyoho Grape ~ Not as good as those from Japan but at least they are a whole lot cheaper! I reckon it’s 10x cheaper? But having tasted the Japan Kyoho grapes before, it’s still miles apart in term of sweetness & fragrance.
Yakiniku Book ~ Interesting little booklet on various meat (beef, pork, duck, chicken, horse) cuts in Yakiniku which I got from the Book Fair
