Another Sunday
Sunday is usually a lazy day for me. I woke rather late this morning, and I felt like lying on bed for a bit so I watched Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles on my bed. By the time I finished, it was still too early to get up so I continued with the latest episode of Ugly Betty. With the writer's strike is ongoing, it is more than likely that there will be nothing much to catch up as we wait till September for the new season, that is if the strike gets resolved by then. Meanwhile I will just have to download older series or something that I haven't thought of watching e.g. One Tree Hill (blerghh!),Finally got up at around 9am and drove to Chris' house to pass the stuff for Zy. Initially I planned to jog there but it was already too hot. I found the house with ease just that I didn't realize his house is on the adjacent side. I went into the wrong house and thankfully the family didn't think I was a thief or an insane tall dude trying to suffocate them to death by using a puny plastic bag.
Later I drove to the swimming pool, wanting to go for a swim but turned out the competition pool was not opened to the public since Friday. I didn't want to waste my time in the lower ground pool which probably would have been fully occupied by a lot of people so I went home and made up my mind to have a really lazy day.
Went online as per usual, chatted with Zy for a while and changed my layout since I was already bored with the last one. Blame this habit on Ms Burns who has infected me with her disease of frequent layout alteration but at least mine will last for a couple of weeks while hers probably lasts for a day or two. I think she is changing it again as I type this. LOL!
I was hungry by mid morning, went to the kitchen and cooked mee goreng, I was going for 2 packets at first but felt rather famish so went for 3 packets instead. 1000 kcal with 150g of carbohydrates. Looks like tomorrow I am going for a longer distance running! It would seem that I need to work on my willpower as the urge of eating is still reigning over the urge of losing weight. I would have opted for a strawberry milkshake but the remaining berries in the refrigerator have gone squishy and rotten, and I ran out of other ingredients as well. Perhaps next week I will buy a bunch of bananas which will be a lot cheaper.
By lunch time I was getting into the mood of lazing on my bed, I swear in my past life I was a sloth whose past time was nothing more than sleeping on the tree. I watched another episode of CSI: Miami and Prison Break before I dozed off into 3 hours of undisturbed peace. My sister text me shortly I fell asleep, asking me if I have any plans for dad's birthday which falls on next Sunday. She also mentioned about someone in the family was trying to matchmake me with another woman who happens to be a Hainanese and a teacher by profession. I chuckled and thought that the idea was rather amusing but I am not ruling anything out yet. Mikhail / Rafael / Mikaela / Arhianna, which one will come first?
Woke up in the evening with a huge thirst and a headache, went downstairs to fetch my dinner and a can of root beer. I really needed the sugar rush! Next week I am going to attempt jogging everyday for 7 days in a row. I am thinking of doing 8km to 10 km on Mon, Wed, and Sat while the remaining days I will go for 6km. After using the knee strap for a number of times, my right knee hasn't been aching and I intend to keep it that way. Let's hope the program next week will not cause any unfavorable effects.
18 more days to CNY. I will have to dish out more money to buy gifts for friends and colleagues. Honestly I wouldn't mind if they don't get me anything at all because that means I am not obliged to get them anything too. Trying to live up to my new year resolutions. No splurging allowed! I can't wait to start giving tuition again, I need the extra income to begin saving.
