Overdue resolutions

You know, with the New Year gone by 11 days, you'd think this post is kinda overdue. First, I'm going to recap the past year's resolutions.

One of it, I recall, was to lose weight. Check.

Another was to actively exercise. Check.

So I managed to kinda achieved what I needed to for the past year. That's great to know! For once, I sticked by my resolutions.

Now, to make some for this year.

1) To maintain weight from 64-68kg, with no potbelly/tummy
Now, I've been told that I'm obsessed with my weight management. I have a reason to, folks. You must understand, I worked hard to lose off 29-30kg for the past year. I wouldn't want my work undone that easily! One of my plans is to exercise more if I want to eat more. I don't plan to restrain from food as it's unhealthy, and life is too short to not indulge and enjoy. However, I will work hard to maintain my weight as it's important to keep fit and healthy. As for the potbelly/tummy part, I guess I just want to look good, haha. Who the hell wants a thin body with a lot of belly fat?

The plan's to let myself indulge, but there must be a limit. For example. Day One I'll allow Delicacy 1 as a 1x Good Meal, then for the other meals, I try to not eat so much.

2) Be more sensible.
I'm going to be 21 this year. It's time I grew more mature and be sensible, of myself and of others. I've been noted to have not taken note of others' feelings at time. Whoever I might have offended, I apologise. It was a mistake on my part, and I am deeply regretful. Please forgive me.

3) Smile more.
I've been noted by friends that I stopped being as active and bubbly as I was back then when I was more horizontally inclined. To be honest, I have no idea why. Maybe it was the abstinence from food. Maybe it was NS. There are a lot of maybes, but I really have no idea why. But this stops here. It's time to smile, laugh and joke more back like the old days.

4) Train myself physically more.
Yeah, all of you are gonna tell me that I'm a sell-on, with me running like a mad man every chance I get. Thing is, I still haven't passed my IPPT. My aim now is to get IPPT Gold by ORD. And also, I want to run a full marathon when I ORD. So with my present state, it's still far from possible. I need to train. Anyway, it'll keep me healthy too, so it's 2 birds with 1 stone.

Yeah, so the above are the resolutions I gave myself so far. Hopefully I can achieve them well, like last year's resolutions. ZH, go go go!

Appreciation... of waffles. :)

After 18 weeks in BMT AT Palau Tekong, anybody would definitely learn how to appreciate life. I, for one, have learnt how to appreciate good food outside of Tekong during my weekends.

Today, I'll talk about waffles.

Oh yeah~

Waffles are my comfort food, they come in all sorts of different flavours. You have plain waffles, pandan waffles, coffee waffles. Bakeries generally stuff them with kaya, margarine, peanut butter, strawberry/blueberry jam, chocolate and cheese. Some unique stores would add in maple syrup, chocolate banana, chocolate cornflake, honey, ham & cheese and in one place I saw but never got to try (regrettably), D24 durian into their menu. In some places, they're coated with ice cream, or served with fried chicken.

To me, they're something I can't every say no to. And since I love pastry, this makes it even harder for me to say no.

So this New Year, I wish to dedicate my appreciation to the existence of waffles. :) I've been hearing about Prima Deli selling really really good ones, so I'm going to head down and get one first chance I get.

I'm not even caring if I get fat over it. I'll scarf them down first chance I get!
