The Day(that don't really make any difference)

It is 00:01, Wednesday 13th February.

You know exactly what day it is tomorrow.

It is the Valentine's Day! If you do not know what day that is, it is a day of the year that you do something special with/ to/ for the one that you love.

Back in time, when I was in a relationship. Sure, this day was special and I did expect to get a little gift from that person I was in the relationship with. But you know, the whole thing about the Valentine's day is just bullsh*t!

Not that I have such a bad attitude after the break up and knowing that I will be spending the Valentine's day more or less alone this year(FOREVER ALONE!).

Let me tell you what I think.

But buying a teddy bear, a heart shaped box with chocolate inside, a heart pillow, some roses... Just for that ONE day of the year to the one that you love. It is bullsh*t(again, I had to use that word)! I mean, if you love someone, why only Valentine's Day? Why waiting a year to buy her/him chocolates? Why waiting a year to show how much you appreciate and love that person? Why waiting a year to go out to a nice restaurant and have dinner together? Why waiting a year to give her/him flowers? If that person is special to you, show him/ her that he/she is special for you everyday. If that person means a lot to you, why wait a year, when you have 364 days left to do special things with/ to that person?

If you are in a relationship or marriage, do it everyday, do not wait a year.
If you are single, love and embrace yourself, because you are a fantastic person.
If you are single and have a crush, you better tell that person soon, before you lose him/ her.
If you are a girlfriend, be nice to your boyfriend. Girls are complicated and boys do not always get us.
If you are a boy, have patient and always try your best, if you believe that she is the one.
If your are single and do not have a crush, you are not the only one and among those people, there are some that are searching for a person just like you!
If you are alone on the Valentine's Day and feeling pity for yourself.. You better change your attitude! It is another bullsh*t day, you were alone yesterday and probably going to be that on the next day too.

I am not an expert on this kind of thing. I learned something from experiencing, and wanted to share...

Smart people move on and learn from the mistakes and the past, so they avoid going through the same thing again.

I wish you all a Happy Wednesday and Valentine's Day.

Sweetest Revenge

Happy New Year! Hello January! Hello February! Happy Chinese New Year!
(Sort of a way of saying: "Sorry it took me an eternity to update a blog entry.. I am ashamed!)

Now, I do not know about you, but I do not like working out at all. The only one exercise I do now a day is Zumba and dancing and I try to push myself to go to that fitness studio once in a while.

Every time I go there I literally embarrass myself in front of the crowd. I mean, how could nobody notice the little, clumsy me trying to do things right in the most natural way... Which I also fail in doing.

The thing is, every time I go to the fitness studio and workout, I almost have to crawl home. Either it is the legs that hurt, or the back, or like today: the ankle. I think I may have stretched it, or put the foot down in a weird way while running and also kept on running! So, basically I lose all my energy and (more or less) my entire body hurts! I get mad and ask myself if it was necessarily to push myself to do things that will hurt me later...

Many people I know, being active or doing sports are like drugs for them. If they have not been out and ran in the woods/ at the gym, their body hurts and they REALLY, really have to do some exercise indoor to cure their needs and then they will feel fine again. It is the opposite by me. My body hurts when I do sport(except from dancing, because I mentally and physically enjoy it) and I am almost dead when I finish..

I work out because I do not want to embarrass myself whenever I run to catch a bus/train and I would be out of breath when I get on it. In my opinion, that is even more embarrassing than looking like a dork at the gym! You may laugh(but that was a part of my point too), but seriously, it looks stupid! I also workout because I need to be stronger, especially for my job that involves heavy lifting, running/walking and everything has to happen fast. If I have more strength and power in my arms and legs, I will not be dead by the end of the working day. Yes, after I started to workout, there is definitely a huge different and it is noticeable! So these are the main reasons why I started working out. Not because I want to lose weight(that I barely have) or be more muscular...

So, I came up with this thing called: Sweet Revenge.

It is my philosophy and the way I chose to live: "Workout hurts me really bad and now it is going to get the revenge.. Let me get some chocolate and ice-cream!" Here is how it works: The more my body hurts, the more chocolate and ice-cream I eat. F*ck the calories! I hate math and counting calories of what I eat and how much I burn a day, is totally none my interests! I am a food-lover and I eat whatever I desire to, because I will die one day and I do not want to die with an unhappy tummy. I want to marry chocolate, if I just could. Chocolate has never disappointed me, it rather make me happy and it gives all the meaning to live on this planet. I would never leave this place, the Earth, because I love chocolate so much. It is my first, my only and my last love. May the death tears us a part! (FYI, I may cheat on chocolate sometime, by loving rice.. Can't seriously help this, I am Asian!)

I live by this philosophy. Sweet Revenge. Cheers for making workout and eating "equally", so I will have a happy ending(in case I do not wake up the next day, because the gym killed me. But the treatment with food(AKA chocolate and ice-cream) makes it worth it).

Toblerone.. MARRY ME!!!
 Do you think I am awesome?
STALK ME!
