Bars and Cages

Oh yeah. It was the cage today! I miss last month's cage session, and was quite suprised that it was brought in on the 2nd day of the month! ho yehhhhh... this morning I was like looking at these metal bars on the field, and wondering to myself.. 'ni goal post utk apa? selalunya ada football goal posts je.. but the setup was square shaped and they kinda looked like monkey bars...'. Then Sarge told us that it was the cage. Everyone's right. it was a great workout. We were divided into groups of 4 / 5 and would alternately change positions in order to use the bar. The exercises that we did with the bars were cage pull up (awesomeeeeeeeeee! but my butt was too heavy to lift up at times.. so apologies for the 'time added on' moments.. really didn't mean to do so).,upside down push ups, and alternate hands push ups.  This was nicely laced up with some grunts, deep squats (jyeah as Sarge says it, it's all about the ass on the grass!) , SEH-LOW jack knives (which literally killed me in the abs and thighs), king kong push ups, shoulder push ups, planks, sit ups and lunges. Of course  we didn't do these in one shot. The exercises are divided accordingly to suit the rhythm. So after the one hour 'fun'.. (but really.. I enjoyed today's work out veeeeeeeeeeery much.. i realize that my arms, triceps and shoulders are absolutely LIFELESS when it comes to workouts. sheesh), my upper muscles were slightly sore.. and fortunately still attached. :) OBC is really motivating and challenging.. I'm glad to be a part of it. Till the next session.. Saturday... ;)

TGIF!

Hello Friday!

OBC & G

Okay.. I found out this morning that bootcamp added 2 more training locations in their list. One is Subang Jaya @ mini stadium MPSJ (wherever that is..) and also in Kota Kemuning Shah Alam. After doing some calculations, the distance from home to PJ Astaka (where I'm currently located), it 3 km nearer than the distance from home to Kota Kemuning (Plus, there'll be less traffic lights if I follow the federal highway.. I'm fine with that! phewh). As for Subang, it'll only take me approximately 13km.. which is the nearest amongst all, but yeah, it's Subang @ bandar havoc for me. Thus, I shall remain at my current location at PJ Astaka, and hopefully the same time and schedule. (Uncle Zamree, please agree with me on this! ;) There are times when I'm too sleepy / in pain to drive back home. miahaha. ) Okay. I confess that I'm now an OBC addict. Two times of AWOL-ing from bootcamp really haunted me throughout the whole week... sheesh.. Same goes to G's classes in One Utama. Miss a day of it, then I'll go cuckoo.. Heck.. It's just one of the things I do to destress myself and avoid food at the same time. (yes, I'm growing sideways. BOO!) So with OBC adding 2 more locations in their list, I absolutely have no reason to AWOL.. i can reschedule.. KAN?! (a self reminder... ).. Same with G's class.. if the time fits well, I shall go.. go go go.. No room for negative thinking in these 2 areas... Okay enough of that. (Kasut dah rabak. bila mau beli ni nabilah?! )

**My fridge is full of hersheys from Times Square!  ;) I'm in heaven!  H&Ms, and bags, bags, bags! uuhh... I may seem spoilt... but I'm working my ass here. Only God and my family knows that. Keep you freakin' shouldas, wouldas, couldas to yourselves and live your own life. I have a my own mission to look forward to and it sure does not include the unnecesarry people around me. gracias  :)

Hello Thursday!

Woke up at 5 am this morning in order to get myself ready to be tortured by a few handsome young lads (drools). I'm slowly coping with the thrills and drills that are offered for today and am hoping to gain extra strength for the other sessions to come. The 1st day was assessment day, thus they made us run around the 200 m lap 8 times and lace it nicely with some forms of exercises. So today was my 2nd day and after the warm up session, the Rangers (a.k.a newbies) were introduced to Tabata.Mind you, it was drizzling, so running in the rain was so cool! Heck your parents would never allow you to do such things, but in OBC, rain hail or shine.. session is still ON!. Anyway, Tabata = 10  sets of Push Ups... (this killed me... badly! urgh), 10 sets of squats.. (urgh this too.), 10 sets something.. I don't know what it's called but we basically had to lie down on the ground and lift our legs n upper bodies together, jog, and plank. So there you go. One hour of utter torture + fun! I ain't complaining as I know that that my body needs some form of shock and discipline as my weight is like a yo-yo. There are many positive aspects that Ive gained so far from OBC. At least now I learn to sleep early, wake up early in the morning, interact with new people of various races and religions, and most importantly learn to keep my chin up. the culture in OBC is to always support each other and not to discriminate other people to their weakest point.  I need this to keep my self up and going. I'm not able to motivate myself to do better. hurm..

Well, other than OBC, EXAMS are coming up.

I still have:
i) 1 research proposal to be completed.
ii) 2 group reports to be completed.
iii) 1 presentation report to be completed.
iv) 1 group presentation.
v) 3 papers on the 21, 22, and 27th.

So there you go. Even though there's a shattered heart within me.... life still goes on... right? hurm.. whatever. Hooyah!

*oh.. i miss my my big bro, big sis, a small brother and 2 lil babies. ; ' ' ' ( sangat rindu.
