Weight Issues

Wow...can't believed that it's been more then a year since I've started to shred the pounds!!

From almost 90kg and now about 74-75kg.

For the past few months, I have to confessed though, I've not been doing stuff that I should be doing. I mean, I do jog but not as often as I would like to.

Anyway, I'm still adjusting to my new schedule though. Last year I had a maid who attends to Kecik's needs 24/7 but now she has gone missing, I had to do it though. It's kinda hard to exercise when you need to put some attention to your kid to be honest....

Now I can only jog or run when wifey comes home early from her work. If she has to work over-time, so, there will be no exercise for me. I'll try to exercise as much as I can on the weekends though.

I'm thinking of getting myself a professional personal trainer. It's not that I'm not happy with the way I am now but I thought I could do a lot better. Need to tone up a bit in my opinion...

Anyhoos, let's see how it goes.....

Have a good day

6th Sense.....

So....my beloved team, Liverpool finished the league at 6th position with 58 points.

That's 22 points adrift from the Red Idiots!!. Liverpool need to win 7 matches and a draw to get the same points as the Mancs!!

That's how bad Liverpool was this season. Initially, I thought Liverpool would be fighting relegation by thanks to King Kenny, to finish 6th after an abysmal start is an achievement.

Now that the Red Idiots has kicked Liverpool off its perch, Liverpool needs to buck up and start targeting for a Champions League placing next season. The team now needs 2-3 new faces. Ashley Young, Downing, Cahill and Shawcross comes to my mind of the potential players that could improve the squad. Clear-out the dead-woods such Poulsen and Cole. Perhaps, the team also need to have a reliable back-up striker something that the Red Idiots always have (Chicarito, Ole Gunnar)

Riena's seemed to be staying so the team now has a safe and reliable pair of hands.

Apart from Carra-hoof and Soto, the defends looks pretty convincing. The two young fullbacks have a lot of promise and if the King continue to develop 'em, we could witness something special.

Lucas has been a revelation in my opinion. Certainly he has improved and the way he controls the play is sometime a joy to watch. Perhaps, he needs to have someone equally good or better to partner him in the middle of the field to dictate the play next season. Gerard to me fits the bill and he hasn't been himself all season for me. The midfield area perhaps need to have a creative wide-men like Downing or Ashley Young to vary the play a wee bit.

On the attacking front, on paper, it looks like the team has a good pair of strikers but it hasn't been working effectively apart from the Man Citeh game. Obviously, it'll take time and next season could be interesting to watch how Andy and Suarez play together. Silently, I would prefer, Kuyt and Suarez upfront as both has bundle of energy and can run until the end of the match....

Every team I think would need a good bench and with the players that the team has now, the bench looks promising, but not as good as Man Utd or Chelski.

Anyways, it has been an interesting season. Roy Hodgson as a manager was a very bad decision and not to mention the owners were shite...

Can't wait for the next season to start though...

Bring it on...

The memoirs of....

Hey peeps...

It's been awhile eh?

I know I've not been updating my wee blog for quite awhile. Sometimes, I feel like writing and at times, I don't feel like doing it at all....It depends on my mood....hehehe

Anyways, I've been a lil busy for the last 2-3 weeks. On most weekends, the golf courses were my second home. Wifey's not happy about that but.....I enjoyed the games....

Last night, as Kecik was busy playing with the computer, I pick up a book from my dad's library. The title of the book is 'The Memoirs of Rashid Maidin: From Armed Struggle to Peace.

I've never been a believer in the communist ideology but I find the book interesting to read. Obviously, Mr Rashid has his own believes and views especially in the communist ideology. It doesn't matter what I think though.

I managed to complete reading the book before I went to sleep. It was only 100 pages, hence, it only took me about an hour's plus to finish reading it.

Like I said, it was a good read and it gives me the different view of what it is like to be a communist. I do not know what it is like to have lived during that era but I'm pretty sure, we won't been able to enjoy life as it is now if our government and soldiers did not go to war with them or, if the communist had their way in running the country. So to all the soldiers who fought the CPM, I would say, thank you sir!!

The communist era is an important piece of dark history of our country. It needs to be shared and taught in schools and stressed on the importance to not let it happen again...ever!!!

I have a strange feeling about what's happening in our country now though. Something tells me something is not right somewhere. It looks fine on the surface but beneath it, only God knows....

Anyways, I'm off for another diving trip this weekend. This time, I'll be bringing Kecik and wifey along. Heheheh

Have a good week......

34

I'm officially 34 years old as at Saturday.

How do I feel? Well to be honest, I felt great and thankful that I've been given the opportunity to lead the life that I'm living now. Of course, it could be better and I'm pretty sure more good things will come in the future.

No birthday celebrations, no blowing-off candles and no surprise party like last year. This year was just about reflecting my achievement that I've achieved so far. Not to forget things that I shouldn't be doing.

I still believe that I can do and achieve more that what I've already got.

Anyways, I bought myself a nice watch for my birthday. Nothing fancy though. After my initial watch was stolen by the run-away maid a couple of years ago, I refused to buy one that's expensive. I really loved the watch you know. Again, it was a present that I bought for myself for passing my MBA with flying colors. It was a Tag Heuer Aquaracer. No point of pondering what's has happened in the past lah kan.

So, last week, I went to the watch shop and bought myself a reasonable and nice watch for myself. Not as expensive as the Tag though but still, it's a good brand.



Have a good day......
