Towards a goal ~ achieavable?

Been working out in the gym for around 3 months and trying hard to push myself and motivating myself to go the extra mile. Now looking back at myself in front of the mirror, am asking myself is there improvement or changes? A little perhaps hmm maybe none at all.

Working out three times a week; is that sufficient? Another 3 months to my big day, hope to see better results by then. Need to work more harder to reach my goal. Would be ideal if I could reach the one in the picture but that would take ????? gosh, how long would that be looking at the devotion I put when I work out.

I was told that body building is all about building and cutting hence his recipe for me;

1. Protein requirement : 1.5 grams / lb body weight


2. Meal frequency : Protein Requirement / 40

= No of meal per day

3. Carbo 1.5 grams / lb body weight

* Half of daily carbo need to be taken in

i) Breakfast ------- Low GI

ii) Post workout meal ------- Hi GI

4. Fibres : 20 grams during lunch and dinner respectively.

That's about it. Simple but hard to maintain but will try my very best to follow it (think I have to bring out my little weighing machine the next time I go out eating, LOL)

Apple that talk

BS and I got ourselves our first iPhone a few days back signed up with Digi (telco provider). We had breakfast with Wolf and Cub at Coffee Connexion near Atria, Damansara Jaya. After that, we headed down to One Utama where the iPhone road show is which is also the venue for us to collect our phones.

Digi had a very well organized road show compare to Maxis when they first launch the iPhone (chaos). Digi had proper counters set up with sufficient manpower to run the show (good one, as ppl nowadays doesn't like to wait in long lines).

Since we were the early birds, the whole process lasted about half an hour for us to get the phone. There were different packages to choose from (RM88, RM138 and RM238 plan ~ took quite a long time for me to choose) and it come with a yellow casing (Digi mah). After putting it on, it's like apple with a yellow skin (hehehe).

BS put it, we are now part of the "finger apple man" (now that gave me a smile). It was open to Digi customers who pre-ordered the phone early. It is now open to public. For those who are interested, do check out the different plans, I am sure there is one for everyone.

Last Night ~ Camby Trip

After a day of city touring we decided we will not be going anywhere for the night. We went down to bar and ordered our dinner (it did take quite a while for our dinner to arrived, but it's worth wait ~ was delicious).

Oh, did I mention that there was no electricity at the area. It did add on the romantice mood and after dinner we ordered a few round of drinks (very affordable). The bartender was a nice lady called Ah Lin and she has been very entertaining and informative. This is where we got to know "yum yum" means "a guy getting blow" so friends, please use the word wisely when travelling in Cambodia.

That's Ah Lin the Barternder and the a nice pic taken during the power outage.

I am not sure how many rounds we had but we had a great time. Enjoy every round of the drinks. BS had two rounds of Johny Walk double shot. I had Vodka and Pina colada. In between there were something else, can't really recall.

One word, ~~~~~ drunk ~~~~~ by the time we got back to our room.

A campy trip to Camby - Day 5

 March 7

City tour is our itenarary today. That includes the Royal Palace, Silver Pagoda, Russian Market, Killing Field, S1 prison and Wat Phonm.

The Royal Palace.We have to pay and entrance fee of 25000 Riel each. The palace is only used when there are a special occasions or when there is a coronation of a new king and queen. Following that will be the Silver Pagoda, can't take pictures in the pagoda but the interesting point is that the pagoda has 5000 tiles made of silver. (wow, amaze?? hmm)

Below pictuers were taken at S1 prison. This is another sad place where the prisoners are interogated and punished and tortured before taking them to the Killing Field where they will be laid to rest for good. I only took the pictures on the outer building. While in there we were supposed to be silent as respect to what has happened in the building but there are people who chatted all the way to the end (sigh).

Enough of sad stories, we had a fun time at the Russian Market by bargaining (hehehe). BS does have a way with girls, great pricing given every time he open his mouth ~ to bargain I mean :P ~. The market also have stalls that serve local foods.

LV, Gucci, Ferragamo . . . . all are vailable here. Imitations of course but if you know how to look and select you might be able to find one that can pass off as the original. Ladies, bring lots and lots of money if you intend to burt your luggage weight when going home.

Silks are plenty here, souveniers, T-Shirts ~ name it you got it. Gear up your bargain skills and enjoy ~ think my mum could spend one day here, no offence mum, I said it with love :)
