Reason Number 3827437:
Sitting on the couch at 1 am eating 3 various kinds of random junk food (sweet, salty and salty) and watching the Emmys and Seinfield concurrently and reading Sherlock Holmes on a what was school night.

Reason Number 81:
Going to yoga, double shot of yoga, anytime anyday (almost).

Reason 72637:
Retaking Japanese Elementary 1 (heh, I have such a language disability).

Reason 9837:
Not having worn working clothes (even the ones that are hard off to pass in office) since oh forever. Maybe I should just fold them up, pack them into boxes and store them for…. never?

Reason 1:
Sleeping in.

Today is the first day of my unemployment.

I awoke at 0830 hours to have breakfast and to clear my bedside table. Off to Copper’s hot flow at 1230. Then to Change Alley to help the Queen Mother change money for her Penang trip. Back home tapao-ing sliced fish bee hoon to eat (er, supplemented with potato chips). Then to vacuum the house and finish clearing the bedside table. Truly I have too many things, spilling them all on my bed gave me a headache. But the room still has to be cleared. Sigh. Taking the bus to Muay Thai for the 1845 class where Lau Lau really worked us out. My right arm cannot feel a thing right now. Siew insists I must wear my mouth guard. What I need is faster reflexes and back to the basic class I think. We had dinner at the usual Thai place then back home on the MRT.

It was a fulfilling day. I think. But the room…. Little Miss Neat please stand up.

I have a death wish. I signed up to do the Stand Chart 21 km at the year of the end. Yes, I think 21 km will be the longest longest I will ever do in my Entire Life. If I do not faint and die halfway of course.

The sponsor for the run this year has changed from Adidas to New Balance. Just my luck. No offence to New Balance lovers, I love their Sesame Street trainers as much as the other midgets. But come on, how can you see shoes with names like 190, 851? (Note: these are not the actual Shoes though they are all called by Numbers. For discerning public transport people, I used Bus Numbers.)

I have a new category on my blog. Awful Big Break. Although I wish it was a real Big Break (the kind that movies and books glorify), I believe that it is a very apt description of the adventure I have coming right up. I hope to be able to allow myself to indulge in what my day dreams are made up and not let myself down anymore. Come on Awful, you only got one more chance.

But coming up in August will be Rest and Relax. (Excuses!)

Exercise:
* Early morning yoga – The morning is the best time for the body to do yoga
* 8 times Muay Thai – So much for unlimited this month but I will master that right roundhouse and do boy push ups
* Run – My virgin 10 km is coming up in the middle of the month and I will be prepared, never have I ran so much before but with the big break, comes my self discovery in what my body can put up with
* Rock climb – Just one try?

Self cleansing:
* Clean out my room – Revert back to the neat freak I used to be, (whatever happened to Little Miss Tidy), clear out my clothes (though I may not dress like a 27 year old but I cannot carry off the 18 year old short shorts anymore), organise those Bags (I should be ashamed).
* Housework – Time to pay my lazy bum dues
* Japanese – Yes basic again. No I will not be embarrassed.

Fun:
* Lady Gaga on the 12th followed by my all time favourite Mambo at Zoukie!
* Bangkok with the worker bee girlies

I think cleaning out my room will take the entire month.
