This is my blog, so read it or leave it.

Have lower expectations so that life is less stressful and you can live happier. It's ok to fall, but you must remember how to get back up.

* CNY in 3 weeks! *
CNY is coming in 3 weeks time!
Haven't prepare or buy anything for CNY yet..
No clothes, no goodies, no decorations..
Haven't done any spring cleaning yet too..
My hair length is affecting the way I'm dressing up for this CNY..
My mother told me not to wear skirts or dresses this time..
She said that with my hair, I might as well act more manly..
But I don't really like the idea..
I rather go with a punk's or rocker's style and look feminine.. (Can it be done?)

Can't wait for the bah kua and egg rolls..

* After 4 weeks of training *
It had been a month since my training started..
There are many changes that I saw in myself..

When I started out, I couldn't march properly..
Always ended up marching with my right arm and right leg..
But I learn from the others and my mistakes..
I was super happy when the RSM praised me for my improvement yesterday..

I also couldn't do a single standard incline pull-up when I started..
After a few weeks of training, I can do around 5-7..
The result is still not very good, but I am happy with the improvement..
I will still aim for gold for my IPPT at the end of the course..
I can see my muscles growing when I look into the mirror..
My weight is not decreasing but it's probably due to increase in muscle mass..

Over the 4 weeks, I have cut my hair twice..
So I look like a boy now.. Quite a sacrifice..
It doesn't matter because it will grow in 6 months time..
It is also more cooling and convenient for my training..

Before my training started, I don't really drink much plain water..
After weeks of water parade, I'm quite used to drinking water already..
Now, I can drink a full (to the brim) bottle of water every night..
Even now, while sitting at home, I feel thirsty at a certain time if I don't drink any water..
Before the course, I don't even care what was the color of my urine..
Now, I'm so conscious of my urine color, always checking if I'm hydrated enough..

4 weeks, so many changes..
27 more weeks to go, more changes to anticipate..
The seniors would be passing out this coming week..
It will soon be my turn in 6 months' time..

* Partner needed! *
Maybe it's a bit too early to be looking for a partner now..
But I need to book and confirm someone for July..
Anyway, it's for my officer course's Dining-in Ceremony..
The date has not been confirmed, but it should fall around mid July..
Most likely a weekday and guests should arrive before 5.30pm..
The Dining-in would be quite regimental and formal, so my partner must be able to bear it..
Another thing to note, the dinner would be paid for already..
So just be present at the dinner, don't do stupid things, smile and enjoy the food..
Any interested party (preferably a guy) please inform me soon..

* Tired body *
After tens of push-ups, crunches, jumping jacks, squats and many others, my muscles are aching like nobody's business..
Almost the whole body is aching except some places only..
There's not enough time for my body to recover except on the weekends/holidays..
There's also a problem with sleep debt too..
The water parades made me go to the toilet many times in the night..
I'm also not quite used to sleeping on the bed given..
The lights are also not switch off until quite late sometimes..
Everything ended up with my body aching all over and my mind very tired..
So far on the days I don't have trainings, I stay at home to rest and sleep..
Sleep, sleep, sleep and sleep.. I miss my 10 hours of sleep very much..
I feel like a pig, but I can't help it..
My eyelids are very heavy.. My limps feel heavy too..
I'm just too lazy to move.. Zzz.. Zzz..
