Sorry Danny...but you SARK.

Was expecting a Body Jam session last night, but instead it was Cardio Dance. Damn, Subang's FF keep changing the GX schedule. Why cant Subang's FF be like Curve's? They don't go changing the schedule every week.

Joined the cardio class anyway. The instructor was Danny (or was it Donny? He looks a bit ahem.."faggotist"). 10 mins before the class started, bumped into my hometown friend who just came out from Body Step. Chatted for awhile, told her my class is starting soon, and she was like "Joining Danny's class? Well, good luck". I query her about the expression on her face when she made that statement. Well, it seems a lot of plp don't like his class. No wonder there was like only 5 plp in when I registered. Anyway, she told me to find out for myself. Different plp, different preference.

Anyway, he REALLY sarks. He cant even remember his own dance moves. We stoned there for a minute waiting for him to recall his memory everytime there's a new routine added in. I even suspect he made-up some of it along the way, coz it was really awkward. He was like "It's right shoulder drop, shuffle twice to the front...no no wait.., or was it left leg out, wait lemme think.." Does anyone want this kind of dance instructor? If he was new then I supposed it's alright, but man…how he managed to stay as a FF dance instructor all this while amazes me.

At least I was polite enough to stay in the class for 45 mins.

Huh? Tremor or Trance?

At first, I thought it was upstairs playing trance music in the middle of the night AGAIN. Then recalling that I didn't take my dinner, and that's my stomach growling. Then I thought, maybe something went wrong at Indah Water processing plant till there's traces of alcohol in the water supply, enough to get one high after drinking 2 glasses of water...And thought there was a party going on when I looked outside the window and saw people gathering outside the apartment. But then it was when my friend called me on my cell that I realized it was another tremor. Switch on the news and found that the 8.5 Richter scale quake happened quite near this time. If I'm not mistaken, like 500km+ away from KL? The distance is like from Penang to KL. My gawd, that's awfully near. Anyway, I was very blur the entire night. Below are some tips I recall from the Hitz.fm this morning on "What to do & what not to do during an Earthquake".

1.) If you live in a quake-prone area, make sure you don’t have any sharp or heavy objects hanging near your bed.
2.) In the event of a earthquake, take cover under the table.
3.) If you're inside a building, stay away from the windows.
4.) Do not take the lift. (if you're on the 25th floor, this be a good time to lose those calories)
5.) If you're outside stay away from buildings, electric and telephone cables and trees.
6.) If you're in the car, drive away from any flyover and underpass.

After point (6.) I couldn't remember what JJ said coz at that point of time, a cute chick in Kelisa droveby. Anyway, I hope everyone's ok and there's a minimal damage to properties.

Here's to hoping that we never will have to seek cover under our table in the future. Unless of course there's a hot chick under that table with you that you can hug for safety.

Never Fear!! Sum Ting Wong is here!!

First, it started with my eyesight going blurry. Then I felt a twitch on my left shoulder. My blood began to pump faster. I got an erection while signing some documents?? WTF?? Either the air-con was set to “Arctic Mode” or the paperwork was really getting to me. No more documents signing today. Don’t want my clerks to see me walking around with a bulge in my pants. While replying some company emails, I thought I saw the Garfield magnet (which was sticking on my computer’s glare guard) gave me a wink and grin. WTF?? SHIET!! (1 minute later, Garfield ended up in the trash..don’t want my clerks to see me talking to a Garfield magnet. So Garfield had to go). Something was going on. Then it happened. My alter ego was taking over!!! OMG!!! Mr. Sum Ting Wong is here!!

There’s something weird going on today. I can’t put my finger to it, but since my alter ego showed up, I believe it must be the anxiety in me. He only shows up on Fridays and when I’m feeling anxious. Besides getting an annoying phone call from someone who called up looking for “Ah Nga” and repeatedly calling 5 times AGAIN and insisting on speaking to this “Ah Nga” something weird is going on. Maybe I DO know what’s wrong and maybe I’m just living in denial. More details later, once I collect my thoughts and figure out what exactly I want yall to know.

Till then, Mr.Sum Ting Wong has got a world to save.

Relationships in the year 2005

Horoscope? Fiction or Fact?
I'm generally not a superstitious person. I dont believe in all those mambo jumbo BS like "For those born in the year of Dog-you'll do well coz you chase chicken / For those born in the year of the Dragon-you'll get a Big tummy coz of overdose of chicken meat etc." I do read horoscope next to the comics section but wont remember what I read by the time I flip to the sports section.

However, at the earlier part of this year strangely enough, something out of the ordinary caught my attention when I read the horoscope on newspaper during CNY. It said, "Year of the Chicken -relationships will fail, hearts will break, lovers will part". I was thinking to myself, Cool!! Looks like there'll be more single girls around, which sometimes I regularly thought that they dont exist (single girls that is). Either that, or M'sia has a serious problem of oversupply of guys and undersupply of girls. Back to the topic anyway, so I just took notice of that but didnt really think it would really be true. I mean..what do these horoscope writers/ fortune tellers know anyway? If they're fortune telling abilities are so accurate, why cant they get rich overnight by foretelling tomorrow's 4-digit winning lottery number?

Or so I thought...
Hell, it's only the 3rd month of the year. I witness relationships failed. You have no idea how freaking weird it was for me. IRL guy friends suddenly showed up on Saturday nights to hang out with the gang, when for 2 years they had their "Saturday passport" revoked by their girlfriends. I made friends with 2 bloggers who broke up not so recently with their boyfriends. Stumble on even more blogsites who's latest entry are about them in the recovery process etc. What the hell just happen here? Is it normal for these kind of "TurnOver rates"? It's like boyfriends/girlfriends is like clothes that have gone out of fashion and needed to be donated to the nearest Salvation facility to make space for newer clothes. Okaaayy, I may not know about the juicy details bout how those breakups exactly happened, but the coincidence of the "Year of the Chicken thingy" and these stuff happening are really freaking me out.

I dont how/what I can do. I'm no Love Doctor, but I'm your friend. For my guy friends, I dont think I need to post any advise for post-breakup. You guys got over it faster then me writing the title of this entry. For my gal friends, you're the more emotional species. I know I'm a guy, but I'm a sensitive one at that. You know can talk to me. I'll even give you the pleasure of pretending that I'm you ex and you can unleash your anger at me. Temporary Verbal assaults only please. No, seriously. But dinner's on you tho. Anyway, for those unlucky ones still suffering from heart breaks, the following poem is for you. I got it from a friend. Help tons after my breakup with my girlfriend of 4years.

If you find yourself in love with someone who does not love you,
be gentle with yourself.
There is nothing wrong with you.
Love just didn't choose to rest in the other person's heart.

If you find someone else in love with you and you don't love her/him,
feel honored that love came and called at your door,
but gently refuse the gift you cannot return.

Do not take advantage, do not cause pain.
How you deal with love is how you deal with you,
and all our hearts feel the same pains and joys,
even if our lives and ways are different.

If you fall in love with another,
and he falls in love with you,
and then love chooses to leave,
do not try to reclaim it or toss the blame. Let it go.
There is a reason and there is a meaning.
You will know in time.

Remember that you don't choose love. Love chooses you. All you can really do
is accept it for all its MYSTERY when it comes into your life.
Feel the way it fills you to overflowing, then reach out and give it away.

Give it back to the person who brought it alive in you.
Give it to others who deem it poor in spirit.
Give it to the world around you in anyway you can.

This is where many lovers go wrong.
Having been so long without love, they understand love only as a need.
They see their hearts as empty places that will be filled by love,
and they begin to look at love as something that flows to them rather than from them.

The first blush of new love is filled to overflowing,
but as their love cools, they revert to seeing their love as need.
They cease to be someone who generates love,
and instead become someone who seeks love.
They forget that the secret of love is that it is a gift,
and that it can be made to grow only by giving it away.

Remember this, and keep it to your heart. Love
has its own time, its own seasons,
and its own reason for coming and going.
You cannot bribe it or coerce it,
or reason it into staying.
You can only embrace it when it arrives,
and give it away when it comes to you.

But if it chooses to leave from your heart or from the heart of your lover,
there is nothing you can do and there is nothing you should do.
Love always has been and always will be a mystery.

Be glad that it came to live for a moment in your life.
Don't deny love just only you don't want to be hurt...

IF YOU KEEP YOUR HEART OPEN, IT WILL COME AGAIN.

Cardio Dance = Fun / Pain x100%

Yesterday was my first time in a Cardio Dance class. Was at the one in Subang's fitness first. I registered my name 5 mins b4 the class started. Actually the class was full, but the trainer let me in anyway after giving me a weird smile/grin. Weird as in a smile that straight guys normally dont give to another straight guy.*shudder*
Man, it's was packed. We had so many people in the class that we keep bumping into each other. To the chick who was beside me, "SORRY!!" We banged into each other on more then a few occasion. It was way too cramp. I lost count on the number of times we step, punch and kick one another. It felt more like a Body Combat class. (note to self: Dont mess with dancers, they can throw nasty punches.) Both of us were standing at the last row of the class. I could hardly see the instructor amid the moving hands and bodies in between so I had to watch her to learn the moves. Anyway, she had nice moves (she got other NICE stuff too besides moves =P).."You GO Girl!!!". She said sorry and gave me an embarrassed smile after hitting me in the shoulder. I was like "That's the signal!!"(a bit perasan I know). After the class, wanted to intro myself and get her name, but I was too shy. Besides, I needed to sit down coz my legs felt like they're gonna fail me. You have no idea how difficult it was to climb down the stairs. The pain uggh...Dancing made me realize there's a lot of unused muscle parts on my legs.
All in all, it was fun. Good cardio workout and definitely beats running on the tread mill. Will join the next Cardio Dance class available, which is only on next Monday. Well, that gives me 1 week to rest then.

My leg hurts…bad.

I feel helpless..so so helpless.

I found out today an online friend of mine just broke-up with her boyfriend. Truth to be told, I wasnt surprised that it came to this. She told me before that she kinda expected that the relationship wouldnt hold. I just pisses me off that the guy took her for granted. (to be more exact.. a spare tyre) I'm not sure what kind of charm this guy has over girls, but that's not the way to treat a nice girl. I feel like a spare tyre too (in a complicated relationship)...but then again I'm not a nice guy.

Ever felt helpless? It's knowing that she's a few states away crying her heart out. It's knowing her eyes are becoming swollen till it hurts. It's knowing she cried herself to sleep and cries when she wakes. It's knowing that she's losing sleep, losing weight and worst of all..losing herself. And there's nothing in the world that I can do to change that. All I can do is sit on my comp, wondering..hoping..and typing. Times like this I wish I was a superhero with flight abilities, or with precognition. Perhaps all I wish for is her to let me know how she's doing. I wish she's doing fine. I hope her friends talked her out of the depression.
The depression, I know how it felt. Ohh yes..I remember..I remember the pain. It's a scar embedded in my heart that reminds me everyday of it's sole purpose..pain, regret, heartache. 4 years of relationship..down in the drain. What's more, it was 1st love for both of us. So, yes...it's easier said that done. It's easy to say "Cheer up dear, you'll get over it" or "You should listen to a more uplifting song to cheer urself up". BAH. I know better..I had to quit my job, fly to UK and stayed 2 months there to prevent myself from crawling back to her. My parents and brother that I lived with doesnt know this..but I cried everyday..for 2 months while I was in UK. There wasnt a single day that passes that I never broke down in tears. So, yes..it's easier said then done.

I stayed online...just in case she needed someone to talk too. But alas, she's offline by the time I finished this sentence. I think that's a good thing. I hope that she's sleeping soundly. I wrote a little something on her blog..something I hope that would make her feel better. It's rather weird coz in the ending, I wrote a little poem. Here's how it goes..

He has walked..
Doesnt matter if he's gone,
It's lasted for a year..
Doesnt matter if it's over,
You've cried..
It's time to liftup yourself,
Cause the sun..
is still gonna come out shinning

Kinda regret writing it coz it sounded a little corny+weird. Or maybe it sounded like it was taken from a song.

Come to think bout it..now I know why she left so suddenly in the middle of our msn chat. I guess that's was when she was gonna talk to her boyfriend to breakup.

And to close this post...I was in the middle of a sms chat session with another friend. The last 3 sms was sent by me...and nope she didnt reply. I'm guessing she fell asleep waiting for my slow-ass-sms-typing skills. Hope the both of you have a good nite...and a good day ahead of you.

Signing off,
