FORMALWEAR

Today, I was dragged off by my mother to buy court shoes for the upcoming pre-university seminar in June (very kiasu, I know). I require such a pair of shoes because I have to wear a blazer. After much whining and wandering around, my mother discovers that I really cannot fit my freakishly large and square feet into women's court shoes, and we end up buying a men's pair that suspiciously look like Michael Jackson's.This amuses me greatly. These flexible and rather expensive leather shoes are now sitting in my cupboard, awaiting the fateful week in June where I am going to clomp around in them all over NUS and look like a crazy spinster. Or so my mother says.

The next step is to demonstrate to my mother how any attempts to put make-up on me will end with my face looking like the Joker.

Why so serious, batman?

NEVER GIVE UP

IM GOING TO LOSE WEIGHT EVEN IF IT KILLS ME. GOOOO-

Eh. Okay, maybe not to the extent of not eating and taking strange and dangerous pills, but I need to try nether less. Lest I get put in the heavyweight girl's sparring and sat on by a real muscle-bound sparrer. Fat vs muscle is never a good sign. There. Motivation. Now I need to get my rear in gear and get it done.

In other news:
Monday is now officially dying day. It is the day I run in the morning, have PE and end at 5. Wondrous timetable joy.

This week is Milestone assessment week. I think I will survive. Just.

I have started on serious self-defense in taekwondo! I can now armlock a person and throw him to the ground. Fun, eh? Its less fun on the receiving end, though. Oh well. But no pain, no gain.

I dont really have much to say anymore, except that I'm kind of tired these days. I wonder why? although blogging does get some of thoughts in order and indulges my new, incredible urge to write proper english. I think I will try to blog properly from now on, and write about something besides myself. Yes, that would be a good project to start on. Then I can collate all my useless information in one place as well. Hmm.

In that great spirit of motivation, I shall put my favourite quote of the day here:
"Life is a series of interruptions interrupted by interruptions."

I think that pretty much sums up life , eh?

Exercise

What I have done in the past week:

Run 2.4 (or rather, hobbled along.);
walked 3.6 km for cross country;
ran another 1.2 today and played captain's ball,
walked 3km x2 for my dog's evening walks;
and finally, ran up and down stairs to get things/move things/call people.


Yet, I cannot lose weight, and have to go for some weight management thing tomorrow.

Sigh.
