7月9日 nigelchia.com is Up!This would officially be my last blog entry in MSN Spaces. I've moved my blog to my very own domain at http://www.nigelchia.com. Puhleeezee check it out.. and bookmark it while you're at it? Hahah.. what shameless self promotion! 7月7日 nigelchia.com =DI've always wanted to do this, so I finally got my own name .com-ed, yippie!! Can't wait to get my account activated (which should be anytime soon) and start setting it up. First thing I'm gonna do is install WordPress and move my blog there. Hehe... 7月6日 Moving...Nope, not moving as in a new place to stay.. but I'm considering moving my blog... again. I somehow find MSN Spaces very limiting and a tad slow. I think it's built-in themes are all rubbish, and you can't design your own. Only good thing I like about it is its integration with Windows Live Messenger. I've been eyeing WordPress for some time now and I think I might give it a shot... BlahWas at Pyramid last night after work. Supposed to catch Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift (OMG Neela is sooo hawt!!) at 9.10pm with my bro and his friends but I was there early, around 7.30-ish. So after getting the tickets, I walked around and did some window shopping... Then I stumbled into Studio R. Now everytime I walk into the store selling sports/fitness stuff, I almost always end up buying something haha. So yeah, I ended up buying a pair of Reebok Fitness Gloves (to replace my current worn out pair) and a Reebok Gym Ball for my room. The Gym Ball is great.. I could not only use it as a workout tool.. but it also makes a great bouncy chair and cool decor for the room, heh. Oh btw, just so you all know, HSBC credit card users and/or DiGi users get a 20% discount from Studio R. =D
While I was there, walking alone, passing by many of the stores reminded me of her. Looking into places that we've been from outside, I can still recall clearly in my mind, and almost see the ghost of us actually there.. like a tape being replayed after a rewind. I really loved her.. and a part of me always will... sigh..
Gotta go.. 7月5日 How Evil Are You?
Wahahaha!!! Of People Who Waste Their Time......in the Gym
I seriously don't know if I should feel pity for them or simply just be amused by them. Let me elaborate a little on what I've observed during my hourly training sessions at Fitness First.
There's this group of 3 skinny Indian guys (nothing about being racist here, they just happen to be Indian mind you). They were all obviously new to the gym since they were all sporting their spanking new Fitness First T. So they were like yada yada yada, chatter chatter, yada yada.. then proceed to bicep curl a 20 pound barbell (with improper technique at that) and then resume their chatter for about another 10 minutes until one of them decides 'hey macha, come lah lets go upstairs and grab a drink!', and up they go. I was done for that day, went up to the lockers, showered, changed, and as I was leaving, I saw them still loafing around the free weights area mindlessly chatting away. C'mon.. the nearest mamak is just around the corner, isn't that a better place to talk all the cock you want to your hearts content? If these guys think they wanna get big and hunky at this rate they can dream on.
Next comes this dude probably in his late 30s to early 40s with a belly almost the size of a swiss ball. I applaud his effort to make time to go to the gym and from my obvious guess, his goal was to lose that generously sized 1 economy pack of his. However, he tortures himself doing like a gazillion reps of crunches, hoping to 'crunch' away that belly. Poor guy doesn't realise that spot reduction is a myth and that he should be spending his time weight training and doing lots of cardio instead if he wants to lose that spare tyre. Its a pity how some people work out thinking what they're doing will affect their bodies in a good way or in a way that they would prefer. Anyway, I later saw this guy swinging around 5 pound dumbbells in each hand doing what I reckon something that looks like the cha cha. Oh well...
Now I don't claim myself to be a gym/fitness pro.. I've made a lot of mistakes when I first started out too, but I've learnt from them and constantly try to improve... because I believe if you want to achieve something, you either strive do it right, or don't do it at all... 7月4日 The 'Dri-e-mocion'I have always imagined about such devices that allow you to somehow communicate to other motorists on the road (other than just the basic left/right hand signal lights of course).. and as I was surfing around today, I actually found one!!! This is exactly the thing Malaysians (especially Klang) drivers need! It's got the basic happy and sad smiley faces, displays 'Thanks', 'Back Off' and 'Idiot'... although if I were to get it, I'd customise it to display a middle finger, and change the 'Ba' of 'Back Off' to 'Fu'. Talk about instigating road rage, heh! Superman Returns
So much for expecting another great superhero movie. I thought Batman was awesome.. X-Men was fantastic, and Spiderman was the best ever.. but Superman? After watching it last night.. I was totally disappointed. All I can say is.. hype. Action during the first part of the film was fantastic.. but thats about it. Anything after that is just utter rubbish filled with cartoon-like CGI animations... and the story.. haha what story? Superman returns to earth and thats about it. He then resumes his former job of busting bandits and as archnemesis of Lex Luthor and thats it, end of 'story'.
Anyway Spiderman 3, slated to appear on the silver screens next year does look promising...
7月3日 T.TOver the weekend I...
Only good thing happened was that I finally had the time (though certainly not enough) to play Heroes V. Felt pretty rested too... Got up pretty easily today and heading off to the gym before work wasn't a hard thing to do at all... hopefully I'll be able to maintain this for the rest of the week... A long lost friend messaged me on Friendster. It was quite a surprise as I never thought I'd hear from him again. We go way back... as waiters in All Stars Sports Cafe... the one in Mid Valley... partners in crime we were. "ps. Remember Mexan? Hahaha.." he said in his closing note. Our boss back then.. "ps. Of course I remember that bastard..." was my reply. |
