Introduction

2006 Journal
2007 Journal

Hi. This year my journal will be simpler but hopefully it will be a good measure for me to track my progress. I'll be concentrating less on food and dieting stuff, I'd still do it but not like before. Made SUPERB in 2007 look-wise. Cant post the pictures here tho - I'm done with being stalked last year for posting pics with no shirt on.

So here are my minimalistic goals for 2008 :

1) Run a half-marathon
2) Complete 50 Crossfit WODs in a year
3) Crank an unassisted pullup/chinup

Simple eh? (WOD = Workout of the Day)

I'm concentrating more on Crossfit this year - I like the fact that it mixes Olympic lifts + bodyweight exercises + sprint works + kettlebells + gymnastics and core trainings in their WODs instead of pure bodybuilding. The goal is different too, Crossfit is more to overall fitness (looks will come later) and bodybuilding is solely for physique.

For me, fitness > looks.

Entries start tomorrow!

Syd...just pop the pills oni ler....u'll feel much better.

I did.

Pain is so severe, every month I wish I could get my uterus removed.

that bad arr....
what i do is that i just pop the pills every few hours. can feel once the meds wear off lor.
macam panadol addict every month.

I take Ponstan. Panadol is as good as mentos for me

The thing is Ponstan is practically mefenamic acid, so it got to be taken with food. Else will get another type of abdominal pain

Nemind, period = good. Helps to keep hormones in-check

why does period hurts anyway.. blood flowing out makes ur tummy pain or something?

go google lar jones. malas want to explain.
u'll never know how it feels like anyway.
