Its so bloody confusing. 24 hours, too much things to do.
I have my training commitments
I have to work
I need friends
I need basketball
I need to play games
There are too many a times friends ask me out for either dinner or just a bite. But so far, I rejected them because on Mon, Wed, Fri I'll need to rush down to gombak. And on Tues and thurs, I need my basketball.
DISM guys asked me out for steak! That's like what I've been wanting to do since dono when. But ohohoh, rejected.
ITP friends occasionally asked to go for dinner or have fun. I needed some bonding session, but I rejected again.
And now, tomorrow I'm going down to SWF tml, and I'LL REJECT A WHOLE LOT OF MORE PEOPLE IN THE FUTURE. Wtf, even Sat is packed now.
This calls for a time to think about time management. This sucks. When will I say yes?
Fuck.

Not too good, but still in high spirits.
The problem now is that i'm quite far from my aim of reducing another 5 by february. In fact its out of reach.
But i'm feeling like its because of how consistent i've been working out and the fact that i'm eating too little and the wrong stuff too.
But i know i'll be doing fine.
Incline Bench Press: 27.5/45
Flat Bench Press: 32.5/50
Back Squats: 45/70
Military Presses: 25/52.5
Bent-over rows: 32.5/65
Deadlifts: 47.5/90
Pullups: 2/8
I'll be looking to work harder in my bench presses. They're too gay to be true. I'll be adding more to my back squats soon. So far my only problems are the presses.
I'll be back to training alone. Both good and bad. The good thing is that i can finish by an hour, the bad thing is that i won't dare to go heavy on the bench presses and squats. Its time i planned a meal plan.
Since i'm having attachment, i've gotta wake early to prepare lunch and crap. So its gonna be 7 oclock mornings for me.
7.30am - Oats with fruits or 3 eggs with a can of tuna.
10am - Nuts with 3 eggs
1pm - Home prepared rice with 2 chicken breast with vege.
4pm - Nuts with fruits.
7pm - Milk more meat be it fish or whatever.
Only 2 cheat meals per week.
Same goal as before, lose fat gain muscle and my lifelong goal of up-ing my fitness.
When we talk fitness, these are the qualities:
Cardiovascular/respiratory endurance
Stamina
Strength
Flexibility
Power
Speed
Coordination
Agility
Balance
Accuracy
Do you have those?
As for guitaring, i'm doing fine trying out my first fingerstyle song, Freight train. Hopefully i can play Dixie mcguire soon. Still working on Angelina.
Seems like my dad and my playing styles are too different. So many electric guitars in the house, but i still sticked to my trusty guitar. So many cool distortion pedals, but i chose the pure acoustic guitar sound.
What Tommy Emmanuel said was really quite true. Repetition is what is important for fingerstyle. I've remembered playing Angelina for more than 20 times a day for the past one yr and i'm stilling playing it.
crazy stuff. so beautiful, but that only comes with hard work. This song is a million times harder than freight train.
Anyway, focus is the key.
Good luck for my fitness and guitaring goals.

The end of 2007
And very quickly, another year has passed. Like last year, i will do a quick summary of this very encouraging year, and my new year resolutions. My new year resolutions for last year was more or less fulfilled this year.
My improvements from 2006
1) I manage to love basketball again.
2) I'm playing basketball, i'm eating. Although i'm still not studying.
3) About the healthy lifestyle program. I read through what I wrote last year, and I've seen how much I've matured towards nutrition and exercise this year. And what I wrote last year was totally rubbish. No breakfast? No lunch? Wtf? That was more unhealthy than healthy. I think I've totally turned around in this area of my life. So so much.
I've totally owned my goal of reaching my target weight. And in the right way, not the pussy I-will-starve-myself-and-do-crunches way. I looked and read at how my nutrition sucked. I cant eat that much crap now, although i can, but I know my limit. I can proudly say that I've lost 10kg of fats (I didnt have muscle in the first place) in this time of 8 months. Its slow, it could only need 3months. But I still must say my nutrition still suck now. But its gotten so much better. I've got back my sec 3 weight of 70kg.
I tried alittle of weight training. And of cause, if u're a noob, you'll always start with the all-time favourite, THE BICEP CURL. You just cant stop curling, because that's the only thing you know how to do. Suddenly, I had the interest of weight training and its benefits to a person's physical health. I began to visit the gombak clubfitt gym after hesitating to go because of psychological barriers. I started having the habit to visit it 3 times every week from 24/9/2007. I started running intervals with Zhi hao, and I've improve my stamina. From 5 cycles with longest time 1min + to 5 cycles 50+secs.
I finally did my first pullup 18/12/2007. I fulfilled my goal again, doing my first by the last day of 2006. No zero fighter no more. I know i sound like i'm bragging, but i'm really proud of myself. I didnt know i could be so determined and being constantly challenging my limits.
4) WTF was I thinking. Bass guitar? I ditched the idea, I still like my acoustic guitar. My dad early in this year asked me to do a search on a guy named "Tommy Emmanuel" on youtube. I did, and i clicked on the song Angelina. It freaked me out. He's the best.
Its hard to say, but the more you study music, the more you look into it, the more complicated it becomes. And its just so beautiful. The first time I listened to this song, it was plain great. And then it urged me to rewatch it a few times (infact i'm watch videos regarding music many times over), and i started to think. How the hell he comes out with such a beautiful piece. Plus i play acoustic guitar myself. And i must tell you, its damn hard to play it let alone playing it with feeling. It kills. Now i rewatch a music video at least twice. My opinion is that it takes some knowledge in music and some maturity in music to appreciate such music. Not that pop sucks, but its just not so deep than tommy's pieces.
I went to his concert in singapore, I was in heaven. Music kills. Even heavy metal fans comment on tommy's videos in youtube. What an influence to music. And now, I quite know my drive towards guitar playing, fingerstyle.
Once again, he pwnnzz your balls.
I didnt get what this song was playing at first, but i made it a point to rewatch videos. And wtf, speechless. Just listen to that simple melody. No need any lyrics to explain.
5) I'm not a geek at home. When i'm bored i just jio my friends and arrange for a outing. LOL. FISHING!!!! In fact nowadays i spent time listening to music when i'm at home. Its tommy emmanuel's fault.
6) I really have financial difficulties this year. Its like my wallet is always the same thickness. zzz. I think i'll just enjoy my life and heck the money. I've lost my interest in electronic gadgets. Its the thumbpick and me.
New Year Resolutions
1) Healthier Lifestyle
I'll aim to lose another 5 by end of February 2008. Then, achieve a flat tummy by June 2008. And some visible lines by October of 2008. (That's what i told jiquan in my conversation, so i'll go according to that)
Get more muscle definition. That's all for the physical appearance part.
I aim to do 10 pullups or more by September of 2008.
I aim to bring down my interval timing to an average of 40secs for at least 6 cycles by June of 2008.
I aim to bring my 2.4km timing to under 12 minutes.
I aim to up my weights for:
Bench press to 50kg by June 2008
Full Squat to 70kg by June 2008
Military Press to 3/4 of bodyweight by June 2008
Bent over rows to 65kg by June 2008
Eat more healthly this coming year. Less cheat meals. No protein powder. Maybe I'll challenge myself to refrain from fast food and tibits like chocs and ruffles, and see how long i can persist. Real hard goals, but I stick to work out hard, I know i can get results.
Oh yea, I have a crazy aim of having Batista's physique by 2015. It sounds like i'm joking but i'm not. Aims are not dreams.
2) Guitaring Dreams
I pick my way through. I aim to find something to play when i step inside music shops.Aim to discover music and study music in a more profound way.
3) Culture new hobbies
Like fishing....
Other Aims
Find a girl
Maintain good ties with friends and family.
Fool ard and be happy.
Have 8 hours of sleep or more everyday.
Grow more hair.
Get some bermudas if not u'll always see me in bball shorts.
Be more sociable.
I'm strong.
Focus & Dedication.
I pwned you Batista. (Ignore me, I'm just trying to get myself pumped)
Junwei glhf. Zhihao, pullup 14 by end of jan ar.
Its been so great, this year. In fact i think its the most fruitful year. I loved it.
Happy new year people.
I just noticed Gary looks like some China man with that pose and smile.
