Achieved My 1st Milestone!

It took me a week to watch closely on my weight until it got stable before saying this out..I've lost a total of 7kgs in 45days & it still going down...hehe.

I've started this since 1st April when I join my new company. Looking at 95% population of females in the office with daily topics about calories, fats, shopping for clothes, cosmetics & all other topics in your imaginary about what ladies will normally talk about...I was determined to give a big push of myself to fight for once to get back in shape & it really worth while. ;p

Having to joined the Fitness First floors below my office & training for up coming race motivates me even more. I've pulled out those pants/skirts which I've kept for 6 years out from the closet & started wearing them for now. (need to throw away another few more kgs before i can starts to do my shopping, dont want to waste extra money unnecessarily).

I'm happy coz my family members, friends & colleagues notice the changed. It feels really good!! Not only the weight that I've lost but rather living more healthier life. I didnt skip meals & never skip those makan trips with friends but rather cautious on what I'm eating...Haha..Kelvin told me, I can starts advertising tomorrow during the race for a boyfriend now...lol.

I've an extra reason to be happier now!! ;p

* lol, it sounds like a testimonial from my latest favourite reality show "The Biggest Losser"...haha.

The passion for Music

Just a small update on what's going on lately apart from one week old "sick"..keke.

I've started giving piano lessons again since early this month. I realized even after so long I've stop teaching, my passion hasn't left me. I enjoyed spending time with my student & see how she progress every week.

To be frank, teaching is not an easy job. I've to constantly drills my fingering skill at home & do my homework before my student learning from me. I've been doing quite a bit of updating the latest information on teaching methods & syllabus from ABRSM website, thus contacted some of the teachers in KL to discussed on the new approach on teaching too. I know it worth all the effort when I see the result from student. ^_^

I'll be taking in more student starting next month, really looking forward to meet new pupils.

Haha...that reminds me the song "Getting to Know You" from "The King & I".

It's a very ancient saying,
But a true and honest thought,
That if you become a teacher,
By your pupils you'll be taught.

As a teacher I've been learning --
You'll forgive me if I boast --
And I've now become an expert,
On the subject I like most.

Getting to know you.

Getting to know you,
Getting to know all about you.
Getting to like you,
Getting to hope you like me.

Getting to know you,
Putting it my way,
But nicely,
You are precisely,
My cup of tea.

Getting to know you,
Getting to feel free and easy
When I am with you,
Getting to know what to say

Haven't you noticed
Suddenly I'm bright and breezy?
Because of all the beautiful and new
Things I'm learning about you
Day by day.

A slight stir...

I was infected with sore throat last Friday after work out in gym, slowly the flu & cough came over the weekend. I tried to suppressed the sickness at first with lozenges & clarinase but it erupted eventually.

This morning I went back to work as usual not knowing it will caused slight stir in the office with my trumpet nose, hollow voice & fever. My colleagues stayed away from me when they got to know I was down with flu; worrying that I got H1N1 flu that might contagious. (seriously, i was a bit scared too; coz i've nearly all the symptoms of H1N1) You can see how media influence people...haha. I ended up sitting at my cubicle with only move around when I needed to go toilet. (sorry man! didnt mean to scare u all.. ;p)

There were some urgent matters needed to solve by today ;I managed to pull myself till 6pm & headed straight to the clinic. The doctor did a round check; was relieved that it was just the weather & me being over doing my exercise lately.

So in the end I was sent home to rest instead of attending my gym session & have to take quite a number of pills that look like M&M but taste like bitter gout.
