Routine ...

Ah finally have a break ..

been in a bit of pain the past few days - mainly muscle soreness .. I finally made it to my normal Saturday gym classes on the weekend - the instructor asked who hasn't been to pump since Xmas and I was one of the few .. she said we'd feel pain and i thought "nah, it's only been a few weeks" .. but boy was she right! i could barely lift my arms the next day and inner thighs weren't feeling so good ..

I also tried body attack - it's replaced the usual body burn class ... higher intensity, a better class overall though some of the moves feel a bit stupid (like imitating an ice skater! :p) .. we had to do pushups inbetween some tracks - argh after pump, i could barely raise my body once esp with the tricep pushups! .. I'm just worried that i'll get bored with this class - because it's a les mills program, it's already been pre-coreographed (like combat and pump) and doing the same thing over and over until the next release will kinda have less effect and become boring after a while .. let's just hope they use some of the old releases now and again!

Saturday night, i finally saw bridget jones' diary 2 .. it was funny, but seemed kinda long - it definitely wasn't as good as the first one .. i spoke to my sista about it (who saw it when it first came out) and she said that bridget was too wussy - there was nothing endearing about her at all and i guess she's right .. i could relate to some of the stuff in it, but she also did become slightly annoying .. I was v disappointed with the Rebecca storyline .. they completely stuffed that up! When I first saw her, i thought that she was pretty, but she looked waaay too nice .. well that tied in with the twist at the end, but it's not how the book went and the twist was just really dumb!

I spent most of Sunday installing a new hard drive .. I removed one of the 40GB ones and replaced it with a 160GB one, with a fresh copy of XP installed .. I was going to install an 80GB one we have at home and keep both existing 40GBs (whilst using a pci ide controller card) but i couldn't work out what to do, so decided it was easier just getting a new hard drive .. all I really wanted was more space and a new copy of XP installed, and so buying the 160GB (which is cheap nowadays) was the easiest option .. hehe though atm, i am only using up 10GB of my 160GB :p i wonder what took up so much room on my other hard drive? :p i copied over the essential files i needed and stuff, and installed all the programs I use regularly .. I think when i start installing the other programs i only use once in a while (like warcraft 3 etc), i'll find my hard drive fills up quicker ..

plus, now i can also copy my fotos over onto my comp and not worry that they're too big in size :o)

first full 5 day week back at work this week, i've been feeling really lethargic these past few days .. Monday night I played frisbee - was late to the first game as the train got stuck at wollstonecraft for 30mins! I was wondering if i should get up and walk to SL, but figured it'd take just as long .. plus, i didnt know how to get there from wollstonecraft station :p

We won both games :o) We were leading by a fair bit in both (7 in the first game, 4 in the second), then the other teams caught up .. not a good feeling, too much pressure :p we won both games by 2 though, so that was good .. didn't play my best, felt useless in the first game (partly cos i was lethargic, another part cos i haven't played in a while) and in the second game, i didn't feel as useless but felt i could have played a bit better .. scored 1, helped score another, did a d and those were about my highlights for the 1.5 hours :p

felt absolutely sore on Tuesday .. I love frisbee but i hate how it finishes so late - my body is only just handling the 3 hours of frisbee but cos i dont get a good night's sleep, it doesn't recover as well as it should :p

on monday in alan's bus, i opened my eyes (i had been trying to sleep) to hear alan horn .. a truck had almost veered into us, and alan was driving on the v left hand side of his lane to avoid a collision .. closed my eyes again and woke up to find alan had stopped the bus and was getting out .. we were behind a truck - the same truck which had veered into us .. it had been in an accident and rammed the car in front (think the car had been stopped and the truck didn't brake till last sec) .. whole back of car was crushed - thank goodness there was no one sitting there .. it was a male driver of the car and he had a female companion who was terrified and all shakey - she needed help getting out of the car .. alan witnessed the whole thing, and he guessed that when that truck started to veer into the bus that it was likely to cause an accident .. dangerous driver!

i've been dragged to 2 presos the past couple of days and it's been so hard to keep awake .. i feel like i need toothpicks to keep my eyes open during them! hmm :o/
