i guess the best thing about mirrors in room is that they let me look at myself , perhaps naked sometimes and then have thoughts about how out of shape i am in my head and then proceed with further imagination of myself looking perhaps half my size and then immediately shake the thought off that im overweight the second i think of breakfast.

phew.

I guess what’s more surprising is people around are never supportive of other people’s decision with what they wanna do or try to do and often throw in some negative remarks in hope of reverse psychology perhaps?

i dont know. but the last time i mentioned that i wanted to do capoeira… people stare at me and then say ” U SURE?”

what the hell. the least i expected from everyone was a smile and then a pat on the back and say ” YEAH.. GO FOR IT!”

But in actualty the very fact that i only found 2 studios offering capoeira in KL which is the E havana studio in TTDI on Sundays and bantus Capoeira in Changkat BB on Mondays. Both timing for classes were imposible for me to travel because of a) jam during the particular class hours and b) parking issues (which are never ending) and perhaps c) of the negative remarks i receive which actually DID play a role in my decision making to try out for the class.

BAH.

And food.

It amazes me when i tell people that i like celery.. or tomato juice or… grapefruits.. majority of people will tell me that they dont take it or hate it or will never eat it because its just too icky or yucky or raw or whatever comments that have the slightest hint that they hate the fact that it tastes so … tasteless compared to their fried chicken or burger or nasi lemak etc

I respect what other ppl like to put in their mouth, so i expect the same for others. to respect what i like to put in mine. 

I can tell you flashback 10 years ago, i HATE vegetables. Hate steamed food. Hate anything that has anything to do with healthy living but right now.. i am the complete opposite. I dont go overboard about being a health freak like my brother or my mum (=.=) but i like the fact that i am in complete control of what i choose to eat and what i dont. And while i sometimes indulge in heavenly food.. i still try to be picky with my food and slowly phase out junk food in my dictionary. Yes, im not ashamed to say that i really like junk food and cant live without it but it’s been awhile now ever since my junk food days and totally controled my eating habits and say no to unhealthy, fried, msg laden food.

In fact, a few months back while i was reading some yoga practitioners blog.. i suddenly have an urge to become vegetarian. O_o

I dont know how other people would react to this but the only person i can tell who will be 100% happy if i really convert to be a vegetarian would be my mum. She have been telling me to be one since…….. donkey years.

But then again.. i just cant imagine life without the taste of CHEEKEN yet.. so i guess being a vegetarian can wait. :D hahaha

Anyhoo. I kinda sorta wanted to get back to YOGA asap. kinda lost track of the best feeling in the world and i want it back now. YZ is kinda fucked up already. The only place i can think of right now are gyms. so.. HERE I GO. You guys should totally support me and negative comments will be deleted. weehoo.

One of the most wonderful and nutritious fruits is the Dragon Fruit, otherwise known as Pitaya Fruit or Pitahaya Fruit. The dragon fruit nutrient profile is loaded with fiber and vitamin C, as well as other important nutrients, but dried dragon fruit (or fresh dragon fruit) is not something you should expect to see in every gourmet fruit basket you may find. Remember to look for the same named instead as pitaya fruit or pitahaya fruit as you travel!

Eating dried dragon fruit or fresh dragon fruit is one of the most wonderful ways to stay healthy. Look at your local markets for the same named instead as dried pitaya fruit or also sold as fresh pitaya fruit at your local organic produce market- remember the fruit may be called pitahaya fruit by some, but it is the same fruit. As an extra health bonus, both the pitaya dried fruit and fresh pitahaya fruit for many Diabetics can help with diabetes blood glucose control. The dried pitaya fruit usually packs about 10x the punch of the fresh pitaya fruit and has a wonderful chewy texture. The fresh dragon fruit is creamy and soft in comparison to the dried fruit. Mix dried pitaya fruit into your salads for a mild tasting chewy textured healthy nibble.

One of the fruits my mum made me SWEAR that i will eat everyday. tastes good tho, me likey.
