Taking credit when it's not due...

Congratulations to Crazy Attack Fella and Sing-along. Am glad that BH and I pushed you both to end your relationship...and start a whole new one! Must have been the pressure from BH and I getting hitched, eh? Hehehehe...

Good luck..enjoy the planning, the headaches, the arguments ( oh, there will be, one!) and the fun...we will patiently await your saman!

It's BC 35?!!!!


One of the things that happens after you get married is you loose sense of time..in the blink of an eye, it's now BC 35. I can barely remember the programme in it's twenties and now it's halfway through it's thirties?


Even the time a GX head of a gym mentioned I'd gained weight,well, the conversation was like this :

Me: I don't teach BC anymore

Her: I see..it shows


I didn't get it..That's one other thing that eventually happens post nuptials..the weight gain. Geez, now aunties that can show off abs in crop tops get the green eye from me! I used to be able to show off abs in crop tops too, darn it! Forget the loss of any kind of muscular definition, but the spare tire around the tummy? It's a sure thing, especially if you're happily married..heh.


I reckon I've lost track of friends too..since my trips to the gym have been few and far between these days. Hey, got stuff to do, lar...sorry Anneh! No wonder I've lost track of the BC releases..even my usual pirate has forsaken me..sigh. I no longer get instructor dvd's to help me remember the choreo..oh well. Makes no difference anyway, not like I'm gonna do BC at home, in front of the TV, ALONE! Neither do I have the time or energy to get to a BC class these days, let alone ANY class.


It's just weird, suddenly there isn't enough time to do everything in a day and still slot in time for a work out. Sounds like an excuse, but it's true! Plus these days BH and I are busy doing our planning for our new home, our wedding banquet ( and church ceremony..oh, it ain't over yet, I tell you, it's a whole wedding year, this one), etc,etc..


The plus side of being married of course, is BH..mmm...weight gain/lack of time/etc..all worth while drawbacks.

Whats in a name?

What Santhi Means
You are the total package - suave, sexy, smart, and strong.
You have the whole world under your spell, and you can influence almost everyone you know.
You don't always resist your urges to crush the weak. Just remember, they don't have as much going for them as you do.

You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection.
You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive.
You have the classic "Type A" personality.

You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people.
You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts.
You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals.

You are a seeker. You often find yourself restless - and you have a lot of questions about life.
You tend to travel often, to fairly random locations. You're most comfortable when you're far away from home.
You are quite passionate and easily tempted. Your impulses sometimes get you into trouble.

You are truly an original person. You have amazing ideas, and the power to carry them out.
Success comes rather easily for you... especially in business and academia.
Some people find you to be selfish and a bit overbearing. You're a strong person.

You tend to be pretty tightly wound. It's easy to get you excited... which can be a good or bad thing.
You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don't stick with any one thing for very long.
You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start.


Ok, so I got the idea from Eric's blog..but heck, if my name means all this...why not blog about it myself?

Love...

Been getting a lecture on LOVE the past few weeks, curtesy of BH's cousin. I always thought I knew what love was/is..but boy have I been proved wrong. The latest lecture is on love does not delight in evil..after of course, love is not rude, love keeps no records of wrong and I belive next week will be love trust...you see where I'm going with this?

Anyway, what he said made a lot of sense, where he got all this from, makes even more sense. The thing about love is, I've come to realise that this simple four letter word makes a lot of difference in one's outlook in life. It's not about the kind of love that makes one's heart skip a beat, it's the kind of love that really makes the world turn round...it's not an easy love to achieve, let me tell you this, cos' it says, this love does not delight in evil..and have to admit, at one point or other, we all delight in evil. As in, we just love to see it when our enemies get into trouble right?

Well, am trying real hard at the L-O-V-E thing, not just with BH, my famiily and friends, but with everyone..maybe then the world will seem a better place?

A belated Valentine's post, I know, but heck...I don't buy into the whole cupid/hallmark/roses thing on Feb. 14th...why can't we show love any other and every other day?

Squeak...squeak

It's the year of the Rat...and Mickey Mouse has not been kind. This fire dragon has done the reverse of most Chinese New Year traditions..instead of the usual weight gain, I lost 2 kilo's.How did I do it? It's called food poisoning..and it must be timed right, ie on CNY eve...that way, 1st day, 2nd day..and onwards, you really can't eat anything, don't feel like eating anything and hence ...don't gain anything!

Had to pass on all the goodies..the cookies, the fried bulbs, the dried meat ( even now the mere thought of this makes me sick, when usually a Pavlov reaction would ensue).BH's cousin inlaw was amazed at my self restraint as I watched everyone indulge..I had to tell her, it wasn't self restraint, it was forced restraint.

Well, apart from the diet..CNY has been enlightening..meeting Bh's side of the family, and boy is it a family, has been fun..it's amazing to see so many characters..hmm...now I know where he gets his sense of humour. But honestly, can't remember much past the first day..the other days went by like a breeze..well, more like an acrid stench, as I was pretty much in bed most the time, mouth sour, tummy all a rumble..but the good news is..I'm still on holiday!!!!!! Yeah, am off for one whole week..till friday! Why? Why not? Heck..I missed 4 days already, right?

Am gonna try to enjoy the last vestiges of my holiday..house hunting,home loan shopping,home furnishing shopping,dress fitting, wedding planning and all..oh, did I forget to mention gastro specialist visiting as well? Yeah, 3 gastritis attacks in one month is a bit too much. Finally decided to see the tummy guy again..this time he wants to shove another probe in..geez..I really wanna say NO!!!! But the family is pushing for it..damn it! So, am on meds and no dairy,no seafood,no spice diet...basically means no good food diet..and probably will lose more weight! The only upside to this fiasco.So, how was your CNY holiday?
