Body MakeOver

At the start of every year, I always make a New Year's resolution to LOSE WEIGHT, but it never works out. I get lazy half way throughout the year. A lot of things gets in my way of my goal. Like, studying for exams, doing homework, making free time for myself to watch anime/movie/drama or read books/manga, and doing some house chores. This long list just sounds like a big excuse. I know that if I was really determined, then I could make the time to workout for at least 30 minutes to an hour.

I've talked to a few people, and they've told me how it's really really hard to start working out. I raise my hand up high. YES! It's freakin' hard to lose weight when you first start out. I'm motivating myself all the time in my head, but my damn body...and head just doesn't want to move or do anything but read books/manga or watch anime/drama. Since, I now have an iPod Touch 4G, I hope to use it to motivate me in my workout. I can read or watch something on it while I pedal the bike machine. :)

Seriously, this year I really want to make a difference in my life and in others. I want to lose weight and be happy about my body when I look in the mirror or at myself. It's so depressing when I put on a pair of my old nice pants, and I find out that it doesn't fit or zip. I just want to cry. :( I hate to buy bigger clothes. It makes me more depressed about my weight. To not feel so depressed, I turn to books, anime, manga, and games. The other difference I want to make is to become a great English teacher when I'm in South Korea for the TaLK program. It will be my first time teaching, so I hope to do a good job. I will leaving to South Korea early February. I'm so excited!

Besides my Body MakeOver, my car needs one too. LOL. I got in a car accident early November, and I don't really like to talk about it. My fault. :( Anyways, my front fender, front bumper, left headlights are broken or damaged. :( There are also some internal damages, but I'm not sure what the parts are. Later, I had found out that my tail lights died. I should fix it soon, but I haven't. When it comes to taking care of my car, I'm a bit lazy to do that. Because I hate to wait for my car to get done, and it's so cold right now. For some reason the cold weather makes me lazy and makes me want to hibernate like a bear. It's all too expensive for me to fix right now, because I need to save my money for my trip to South Korea.

I will update when I finally start working out. (Hopefully, it's real soon.)

The New Year 2011

So, it's another new year.... It's been probably one of the worst starts for me, since I got sick with the stomach flu on the morning of the 2nd of January. I caught it on New Year's Eve but had no idea. I guess it was a parting gift into the new year. Perhaps? I've been stuck in bed for the past three days now. Only today I've been able to eat a bit more than crackers. I ate Campbell's Broccoli Soup with crackers. It was really good. A lot better than I thought it would be.

Now, I'm trying to recover from this stomach flu that's been a killer. My cousins were in town, and I couldn't even hang with them, because I was sick. :( Tonight, they are going back home, and I don't even get to say, "Bye." I didn't even get to say all that I wanted to either. Oh well, that's what email and facebook are for, right? At least, I got to say, "Bye," to my brother, Meng. It was nice talking to him for a bit before he left. I won't get to see him for a long while. I'm going to miss my family and friends.

I always say I won't get lonely or that I probably won't miss my family much if leave them to go somewhere, but I think I will. I hope to spend some quality time with them all before I leave to South Korea. It's exciting but also nerve-wrecking, because I've never been to another country without my parents or someone else. Someway or another, I think it will be fine. When it comes to the time, somehow I don't know how, I usually figure out things for myself or things work out for themselves. Let's just hope that'll be the case.

Well, I hope everyone had a great Christmas. I did. I had a great time spending time with my family. Had good food and watched some good movies, "The Town" and "..." (Can't remember). Sorry, I can't seem to remember when my head is a bit fuzzy.

Nothing much happened except for the little outbreak at my uncle's and aunt's house of the stomach flu.

Until the next time! (When I'm feeling much better.) (^_^)/*
