Bleah~ You all must have noticed that I have not been blogging for a long time...
Sigh... work is taking a rather large toll on me... But I dont have much choice now, as I have already signed on the dotted line and handed my life over to the press...
Anywayz, on a less depressing note, FINALLY, I realized that guys start to notice me on the train... especially after my gymming sessions..
wahaha. hmm... no lah, I'm just feeling happy that my effort is visibly paying off...
But just 2 days ago, a guy just pissed me off really badly... he msn-ed me and said
him : "I want to get your type of body leh, how to train until like that?"
me : "go gym lor, set up a basic routine and plan out your resistant training sessions properly"
him : "you got alot of time to go gym meh. I think its not your gym training leh"
me : "err... then?"
him : "you got protein and stuff lor!"
me : "diaoz -.- even if you have those stuff, you need to have heavy resistant training to activate its potential"
him : "then you got good body lor!"
me : "no lor, i think my boyfriend has a much better suited body for resistance... you shouldnt attribute these stuffs to things outside training."
him : "I cannot go gym leh, can I just eat protein powder?"
me : "..."
*ignores him for the rest of the day
Frankly, I have not reached my dream body yet. And its still far, FAR from it...
but its working =)
at least I can wear sleeveless and gym attire, and actually look GOOD in it.
hmm.. frankly, there are a few people I want to meet in my life now to give them an utter shock.
1) Ms. Tiong - My primary school teacher who said I would not become anything in life, announced to the world I'm a good for nothing, and failed all my tests without bothering to explain why.
2) Kah Weng - My secondary school classmates who always used to flaunt his biceps and strength - at me. While mocking me that I was "ah gua" (gay) and would never reach that standard. I think I can use 3 fingers to hold him down now.
3) Mdm. Seah - My secondary school English teacher, who was one of the few teachers who told me she believed in me, actually believed in me, and did her utmost to push my linguistic potential to its maximum... if not for her, I can bet I'd never have came this far.
4) Ms Koh - My sec 3 and 4 form teacher who is extremely smart and gifted in mathematics, and could make ANY maths topic, no matter how boring and difficult, into something fun... and actually interesting... She inspired me not to drop Additional Mathematics and I actually passed it, - from a constant F9 to a C6.
I can't think of anymore.. but there are many people who impacted my life in so many different ways...
The founder of Apple, Steve Jobs said in an inspiring speech, that :
Life is a blank sheet of paper, every obstacle, every impact, every little event that changes you is a small dot.
Some changes maybe for the better, some changes may have affected you badly.... But at the end of the day, when you join the dots together, you get a beautiful picture...
A picture that you painted yourself through the dots that other people have done in your life...
Every dot leads to where you are now...
Without one dot, the picture will be different.
Every failure is another step towards success in life.
Every success is a culmination of a series of failures.
Even in gymming terms, the point "reps till failure" shows that the human body has to fail, in order to reach its maximum potential...
Success is just success. But failure tells you that you've not reached the end of the road yet.
