I want to be a SUPER FIT MOMMY!!! Possible??? Hell yah!!!

Yup I know, I've been missing from the blog world like forever...and yes I know I keep saying I'm back and will start writing again but only to disappear for months...I openly admit that.... and that is why this time I'm not going to say anything else on blogging consistently from now on but bare with me and stay tune... :P

I'm now a mom of 3 kids....an 8 year old daughter, a 2.5 year old boy and an 8 months old baby boy. Since I've only delivered 8 months ago... I've been struggling with trying to gain back whatever stamina I can and be like what I use to be 10 years ago.... hahaha... you must be thinking I'm crazy right? And you are indeed right! I know I'm half way to being 40 years old...but that is not going to deter me from being fitter and stronger than when I was in my 20s. :P

Life is short and being older doesn't me that we let go and let our body catch up with our age. We can always be OLD-er but still look and feel YOUNG-er....agree??? I'm positive I can be fitter, stronger and healthier than girls 10 years younger than me...haha...I'm positive and you should be too!!! Positive thinking is always good...:P But if you don't believe it is possible, let me just prove it to you.

So, this is what I'm going to do. First look at my stats below:

Weight                           : 47kg

Height                            : 150cm (I can't do much about my height unfortunately...hahaha)

BMI                               : 20.8

Whole Body Fat (%)     : 26.4

Skeletal Muscle (%)     : 23.2

Body Fat (%)                 : 33.9

Visceral Fat (%)            : 4

Real Age                        : 35yo

Body Age                       : 36yo (I'm freaking 1 year older!!!!)

Waist                              : 29inch

Hips                                : 35.5 inch

Arms (Relaxed/Flexed) : 10/10.5inch

For Definition of the Above: 

http://www.lifestyleforhealth.com/index.cfm?id=20d9e127-c46b-4fba-8e8af2da83890002&number-meaning.html

Note that my pre-pregnancy weight was 44kg, hence my aim to reach that target. Please note also that I LOVE TO EAT!!! If you were to ever want to bring me out for a lunch or dinner buffet, I can honestly say that you will not regret it!!! hahaha.... 

Anyway, looking at my stats above, my aim is to: 

DECREASE 'Weight', 'Whole Body Fat', 'Body Fat', 'Visceral Fat', 'Body Age', 'Waist', 'Hips' & 'Arm - Relaxed'

INCREASE 'Skeletal Muscle' & 'Arms - Flexed Variance from Relaxed'

My aim is to do this in 4 weeks!!! If I'm successful (and as a mom of 3 kids), then you will have no excuse whatsoever that you won't be able to do it...RIGHT??? Let's do this together shall we??? All You need is a PAIR of RUNNING SHOES (and maybe an MP3 player or your smartphone will do - for music purposes to keep you entertain while you run or walk) and you are GOOD TO GO!!! 

You just need ONE HOUR a DAY to get out there and walk or run or both. if you haven't done it in ages, start WALKING first... but FAST WALK lah.... cause you need to get your heart rate up in order to lose/burn the fat.. I've heard that exercising in the morning burns more fat that doing it in the evening...so if you can't seem to fit exercise into your evening schedule, then by all means do it in the morning after the kids go to school. Base on Malaysian School Time, Your kids should be in school by 7am, so send them earlier like 6.30am, then head to a Park and WALK for ONE HOUR!!! Then go home, bath and head off to work...in a couple of weeks of doing that you will honestly feel so much better than you would previously.

(Headphones - Check!, Running Shoes - Check!, Nice Weather - Check!, Still Breathing - Check!)

So are you in for the Challenge??? You have nothing to lose right. I'm not asking you to starve yourself, I'm just asking you to Exercise More than usual and maybe eat half of what you always eat everyday for 4 weeks. Let's do it!!! Let us MOMS prove to the world that we are SUPER MOMS and nothing can deter us from being HOT & SEXY!!! hahaha.... ok ok I'm overdoing it but You get the DRIFT!!! ;)

On my side...this is what I'm going to do... I'm going to try and stick to the schedule below:

Monday - Hiking

Tuedsday - Run (4 to 5 KM)

Wednesday - Netball

Thursday - Hiking or Run (whichever I feel like during that day :P)

Friday - Rest

Saturday - Run & Walk with Son in Stroller 

Sunday -Rest

And everyday add in: 

10 push ups, 10 sit ups, 10 squats, 10 Right Leg Forward Lunge & 10 Left Leg Forward Lunge

(Repeat for 4 Weeks - )

And Lets See Results!!! Woohoo!!! Will update progress weekly :)

P/S. Don't procrastinate and say you will start tomorrow, JUST START TODAY!!! ;) 

That's it from me today!!! 

Over and out!!!

I BROKE MY NOSE!!! WOOHOO!!! :P

This is how my nose should look like....do't have a picture with my new nose now cause the camera's battery is flat....will put it up tomorrow....I think my nose still looks the same but my hubby says it looks bigger now...'That's just great!!!"...hahaha...

This is how I looked like after the surgery and my nose back in place. I have pictures when I was at Columbia in the emergency room but I have yet to get it from my friend En. Will post it up once I get it :P Sayang I forgot to take a picture of my nose when it was still broken...wanted to but forgot....hiyah! Signs of old age :P

I BROKE MY NOSE!!! WOOHOO!!! Isn't my life just so exciting!!! Hahahaha....sad case lah.....so much for having a sharp nose....not that sharp lah...but sharp enough :P. And that's the reason why I've been MIA for awhile :D. Wanted to blog about my 10km run but was waiting for my sister to upload her pictures in facebook, which she has yet to do!!! Jess!!! What's taking so long!!! :P

Anyway, in the process of waiting from Monday to Tuesday, I broke my nose on TUESDAY during the netball practice!!! In actual fact...at work on that Tuesday, i told my colleague that I felt like taking leave on Wednesday, just to relax at home. Who would have guessed that I would have broken my nose that evening and would be given 4 days medical leave!!! Hahaha...bahaya also to say you want to take leave :P

But then again, who would expect netball to be such a rough game...go figure!!! I guess I was just jumping at the wrong place at the wrong time...plus the fact that I'm short and have a sharp nose, like I said, not that sharp lah...but sharp enough for it to get in the way of an elbow!!!

Well, it all happen when we were practicing with the SKO ladies....it was a pretty relaxing game, and somehow during the game I went jumping for the ball...and this other lady who is much taller than me, went for the ball at the same time...unfortunately for me, I was behind her so as I landed, she landed as well and her elbow when smack straight into my nose...and all I heard at that time was 'KREECCKK'. And I was like, 'Oh SHIT' (in my head lah) and I immediately pressed my nose with my fingers....not exactly knowing what to expect. It didn't hurt...surprisingly!!! Anyway, after pressing my nose and looking down at my hands, I was BLEEDING!!! LIKE A LOT!!! But again, surprisingly I was quite calm. All my lovely netballer friends were all so worried....and thank goodness there were some first aiders there :D. They asked me whether I broke my nose or not...so after a bit of a feel with my fingers, it was confirm that it was broken....the bridge of my nose had moved to the left side of my nose and my right side of my nose went in.....how COOL WAS THAT!!! It sure as hell FREAKED ME OUT!!! Hahahaha...but somehow I still manage to keep my cool....I was positive the doctors in Columbia would fix it.

Anyway, after awhile of pressing my nose and facing down I started to feel dizzy and my ears were buzzing and all I wanted to do was to lie down....hehehe....but of course they wouldn't let me lie down. Instead they happily carried me to the car....of course after that some nice guy decided to help them out and took over to carry me. Thanks to whoever you are!!! I seriously got to get your name...and I doubt you'll be reading this too....but thanks anyway :D.

After that my dear Farah (accompanied by En) drove me to Columbia Asia. Farah did a good job in getting me safely there and we all had out seat belts on despite the emergency :P. So we were very HSE compliant :P. Thanks Farah and En!!!

When we reached there I was wheeled into the emergency room. And while I was there, I realise my bib was still on...hahaha....malu eh!!! We manage to take it out somewhere during the time when I got an ice block from the nurse to put on my nose. We then waited for the X-ray guy to come, and despite me telling Farah and En to go home then insisted to stick around..SEE!!! I have such beautiful friends...LUCKY ME!!! :P And after waiting for quite awhile the X-ray guy finally arrived....so I got my nose X-rayed and it was then officially declared BROKEN!!! Hahaha....how exciting!!! (Oh yah, did I mention that Syl came by to see whether I'm ok too...thanks babe!!!) By then the bleeding had already stopped. So, I just had to wait for the doctor to say whether I needed to go into surgery or not. Took awhile before the doctor finally came back cause she went for dinner.....and she called the ENT specialist. I was then told that my nose wasn't an emergency case cause it had stopped bleeding. My next reaction to the doctor was 'What??? it's not an emergency case??? My nose is broken and its not an emergency case???' and she said 'No, cause its a soft bone'...and in my head I was like 'Ohhhh......maybe soft bone isn't all that serious....no wonder not so painful also'...well, what she said made sense to me anyway....and she said whether I wanted to be admitted and I said 'No' since it wasn't an emergency case. So I went home lah....and YES!!! WITH A BROKEN NOSE!!!

When I got home I continued to put ice on my nose and finally I had a chance to look at my nose....and it didn't look all that bad lah....despite my nose being senget and I look a bit weird...it didn't look all that bad. But of course I wanted it back in its original position lah...:P I don't want to look cacat for the rest of my life....haha..I still want to be a bit pretty bah....with my senget nose I look a bit like the 'Beast' in Beauty and the Beast :P

Oh yah....my daughter and my hubby did come by Columbia to see how I was and my daughter was so scared to come close to me....she was so traumatise by the fact that I couldn't give her our usual night "Eskimo Kiss", where we rub noses together :). Poor girl.... Anyway, when I got home, my daughter just couldn't stop asking me questions about my nose...she went on and on and on and then repeated the question again as if I didn't give her an answer the first time round....wah!!! can be very irritating when you are in that situation!!!

The next day...I went in to the clinic at 8.30am without having any breakfast whatsoever as I knew I would most probably need to go for surgery and that means I need to not eat for more than 8 hours I think or is that 6??? Admitted myself into Columbia and I went in for surgery at 11am. The people in the Operating Theater was like "You again??? macam regular customer saja you"...and I was like "Hahaha....I don't see you all in town bah...and I miss you all, so I come back in here to see you all again lah..hahaha". Well, that was supposely suppose to be funny lah...and they did laugh as well. Even the anaesthetion knew who I was....sad case lah....I should get some kind of special discount for using the place so often :P. If you follow my blog you would have recalled me going for a surgery in Dec for my ectopic pregnancy. Anyway, the anaesthetision said "You know what to expect hoh" and I said "Yups"....what's new in my life these days anyway :P. In a short span of time, I have already been through 4 surgery under General Anesthetic....sad or not??? This round was my 5th time :P

I even have a friend who works in the Operating theater and he even sempat show me a picture of his wife and his two beautiful children...hahaha...while I was waiting for the doctor to come....:P That's the wonders of being in Miri.....almost everybody also you know :D.

I came out of the Operating Theater around 12.30noon. Doctor told me that it only took him like 5 minutes to push the bone back in place....but I think I was under Anaesthetic for a longer period of time. I checked out of Columbia at 4pm...and during that time a few of my friends came to visit...again I have to say I'm so blessed to have such beautiful friends :D

Today when he took out the bandage he told me that my nose looks good and straight and that he didn't do any damage to it. And then he explain to me that he basically used a tool (which I'm assuming would look something like a plyer) and use brute force to push the bone back into place....eeeeeeewwwwwww...............sounds disgusting....well, I'm glad its all over now and my nose looks like it was before....and like I said before it surprisingly didn't hurt!!!

Hey! I just realised....I didn't get back the X-ray of my nose!!! The doc said he will get it for me...but I think he must have forgotten about it too....sigh...maybe I should check with Columbia later on whether they still have my X-ray....would be a great souvenir for me to keep...hahaha....its not everyday that someone breaks a nose....kan???

And while I had the bandage on my nose....I so had the urge to where a sign that says "I broke my nose!!! I didn't go through plastic surgery!!!" cause everywhere I go people just stared!!! Only people I know would ask and I would have to explain myself...haha....over and over again :P. And my daughter was very cute as well, this is what she said to me "Mummy cannot send me to class...hehehe....cause afterwards my teacher laugh at you....hahahaha...mummy nose broken, hahaha". Well, at least she thought it was funny :P

This was given to me by the SKO ladies....you ladies are so sweet. You all didn't have too but thank you so much!!! My daughter loves it!!!

That's my daughter with the pink bear and with my dear friend Mas!

Oh well, am so glad its over.....that's my story!!!! Interesting or not??? Will write about my 10km run tomorrow and I hope by then my sister would have put up her picture already!!!! :P Jess, if your reading this....hurry up already!!! ;)

Ta for now!!!

We WON the first Netball Tournament!!! TWO MORE TO GO!!! :P

WE WON!!!! WOOHOOO!!!! Hahahaha.....its so unbelievable and I'm still in shock that we won :P It's been over 2 years since we formed this team with some people leaving and some new comers coming in. And throughout those years we have never been champions....never ever!!! So it came as a shock to me when we won!!! (All photographs in here are courtesy of FARAH!!! The beautiful lady with the big smile in dark blue shirt below...thanks babe!!!! What will we all do without you!!! We will probably be photoless!!! ;))

That's us!!!

It was a super close match and the Brunei Shell team were one hell of a competitor!!! My salute goes to them!!! When we first played with them we tied 13 - 13!!! We were leading very closely in the first 2 quarter but the last 2 quarter they kick ass!!! :P

That's the score when we first tied with Brunei Shell Team...

Then by some miracle, we made it to the Finals!!! It could be our new name as 'KRP Lutongs' (Lutong is a kind monkey, and that is where Lutong (which is in Miri) got its name from) or it could be our Blue bibs that we wore :P. We call it our lucky bibs!!! Hahaha...never knew we were all so superstitious....hahaha....am thinking that the reason why we won is because we put our whole heart and soul into the Final game!!! Don't you think Ladies??? Not even sure if you girls are reading this. But anyway, I think we all did a good job. The Final game was with the Brunei Shell Team again and we won by a mere 2 points!!! Again we were leading the first 2 quarters but kinda fell back on the 3rd Quarter and somehow manage to pull through on the 4th quarter :D. We won by 15 - 13. Well, another reason why we could have won is because we had supporters....thank God for them...:D.

That's the score when we won!!!

Our lucky Blue 'Bibs'...don't ask me why there is a red one in this picture....hahaha...so kesian and so alone...:P

Oh well, enough of me babbling on about this particular netball tournament. We still have two more tournaments to go and one 10km run ahead of me which will be this Sunday...and after last Saturdays tournament my bum hurts (not so bad now) and my ankle seem to be giving me some trouble. I'll have to take good care of it this week and hope I will somehow manage to win some money from the run so I can buy myself a pair of shoes....hehe...girls can never have enough of shoes.....hmmmm....actually ah....I don't have that many shoes le.....I have like one working shoes, one sports shoes, one snickers, two clogs.....and yup...that's it....compared to many other ladies out there....I'm short on shoes...sniff sniff.....so fingers cross on the run!!! Plus, my car needs to be fixed too with its terrible dent in the front....sigh...don't ask how it happen...sigh....now come to think about it, if I don't win enough money, I'll only be able to fix the car and not get shoes....Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!! Oh well, and life goes on :D. Oh yah and before I forget, here are some pictures during the game....

Me passing the ball from the center....probably to the GA (Syl)....I'm hoping I'm passing it right cause I can't seem to see anyone else in this picture....:P

That's our beautiful Enn the GS shooting....phheeewwiiitttt...nampak perut mem!!! :P And our beautiful Sylvia the GA looking on....

Hahaha....in normal circumstance with my face like that, I wouldn't put it up in my blog...but this is one weird picture where everybody seem to have missed the ball and I'm running like mad too grab it....:P The yellow C is from the Brunei Team...a very pretty lady I must say and so full of energy....

That's super jumping lady AKA Spiderwoman AKA GD AKA Jan Nie!!! "I believe I can fly!!! I believe I can touch the sky!!!" Then on the right we have Martina our super defence GK, guarding the GS!!! Good on you Mar!!!

Another Flyer!!! Our WA Andrea!!!

Me trying to fly...but not very effective...

Not a very interesting pose to be in...but was probably fouled cause I happily bang into her :P Sorry lady :) And Martina our super defence GK looking on....

I think I can get it...I think I can!!!! Hahaha...not sure whether I did...this just proves I'm not a very good jumper neither am I a flyer :P Syl is probably saying "Jacq, you can do it!!! GET THE BALL!!!" hahaha...:P

And finally everybody who joined in the tournament and made it a success!!! We have the Immigration team in RED, we have the Prison staff in WHITE, We have the PBC Crocs in BLUE sleevless, we have one Gustolads in Black Tudung, we have the Brunei Shell Team in BLCK, and us KRP Lutongs in PURPLE.... Thank you all for making it a success!!!

Oklah...that's it from me.....and wish me all the best!!!

TA for now!!! Hugs and kisses till tomorrow!!!!

Trying to Cope with the WORLD!!!

Yesterday I only manage to do an 8km run and I was already feeling very exhausted. I think I'm over working myself with exercise. Well what else can I do??? I have the netball tournament and our practice is on Tuesday and Thursday, then I have the 10km race coming up and the end of the month and I really need to build stamina. Sigh...we seriously don't have enough days in a week.

My week goes something like this:

Monday: Jog - 5km
Tuesday: Netball
Wednesday: Jog 10km which I couldn't yesterday :(
Thursday: Netball
Friday: Day Off
Saturday: Jog 10km
Sunday: Day Off

For the Saturday and Sunday Off, it will only be for this week. If you've been following my blog, you'll know that next weekend onwards (for 3 consecutive weeks) it will be pack with netball. So I think next week I need to reschedule my whole week so that I have some rest days. If I continue doing what I'm doing, I'll probably get some kind of leg injury. Sigh...fingers cross that that doesn't happen. So maybe my schedule should be something like this:

13th -19th July
Monday: Jog 10km
Tuesday: Netball
Wednesday: Jog 12km
Thursday: Netball
Friday: Day Off
Saturday: Netball Tournament
Sunday: Netball Tournament

20th - 26th July
Monday: Jog 12km
Tuesday: Netball
Wednesday: Jog 12km
Thursday: Netball
Friday: Day Off
Saturday: Run at 6am then Netball Tournament
Sunday: Netball Tournament

27th July - 02nd August
Monday: Day Off
Tuesday: Netball
Wednesday: Day Off
Thursday: Netball
Friday: Day Off
Saturday: Netball Tournament
Sunday: Netball Tournament

The last weekend will be the most relaxing one.

And lately I've been eating a lot cause I seem to be hungry all the time. My body is probably telling me to slow down...don't you think? In the days I exercise, I'm usually drench wet with sweat....and after I take a shower, I'm still sweating that I need to change my baju again....like yesterday, I changed my baju twice!!!

Will probably be pretty FIT when it is all over. But for now, I'm sniffling....that's not a good sign and its raining outside. Can't get sick now...not a good time to be sick. Sigh....need to consume more Vitamin C!!! Plus I have cravings to eat Nasi lelapan...hahaha....dunno why :P

I guess that's it from me!!! Ta for now!!! Oh wait! I just found out that our netball practice is off today!!! WOOHOO!!! At least I can have my day off today and try for a longer jog tomorrow. See you guys!!! Off to our new team welcoming drinking session ;) TA again!!!

NETBALL CRAZE HERE I COME!!! WOOHOO!!!

I think this was taken last year when I still had my long hair. Can't even recall when was the last time I had long hair. Due to my genetic background, I'm a very short person (this would definitely be an understatement if I was born in the Western world, if I was born there, I would be considered very very the short lah!!! BOOHOOO!!!) the only position I can play would be Center and WA...boohoo again!!! But nevertheless, I love being in the Center position or being WA, it fits me pretty well I must say :D

I just found out today that we are going to have 3 netball tournaments for 3 weekends in a row!!! WOOHOO!!! It's like a netball craze!!! hahaha....sure by the end of the last game our team will all kaput and super FIT and probably not want to play netball for a couple of months....:P TIRING BAH!!! I think for those of you who are not from Miri or never have been here before, would probably say "Wah! this people in Miri sure got nothing else better to do" :P but I could be wrong :P

The tournament dates goes something like this:

KRP Pre-Merdeka Netball Tournament

18th - 19th July 2009

KSK Tournament

26th - 27th July 2009

Nameless Tournament (we just got the invite, so no name yet :))

01st - 02nd August 2009

And its usually two full days!!! That is if we are good lah :P From my point of view, I think we are quite ok eh. I mean from the very first time we were together until now, we have improve a lot!!! You should have seen us the first time!!! Half the time we were laughing in the game, cause half the time we were losing the ball and the ball keeps rolling away from us!!! At that point of time I was beginning to think that the ball had a mind of its own!!! :P. But now, we have much better control of the ball :)

Anyway, the worst part to this is that for the KSK tournament, I have my 10km run at 6am on the 2nd day of the game!!! AIYOYOYOYO!!! I'm just hoping I'll be able to build up enough energy and stamina to be able to keep up with both the 10km and the tournament. Well its probably not as bad as it seems since we have back-up players as well....so I could probably skip the first game of that morning :D. Plus, did I mention my sister is doing the 10km run as well??? I think I did in one of my email. I really can't wait for the run. It would be nice to run with my sister after so long....won't be surprise if I get left behind :P.

Oklah...that's it from me....Ta for now!!! NETBALL CRAZE HERE I COME!!! WOOHOO!!!

This was during the Highlanders Games Carnival this year (June)....look at all the pretty girls ;)

P/S. You probably have no idea how much I love this game. My life priority goes something like this, GOD first, FAMILY second & NETBALL!!! ;)

Tomorrow is THE DAY!!!

Hello People!!!

A quick one for today!!!

I'm back!!! Sorry I haven't been able to blog this pass few days, or more like this pass few weeks. Weeks because I was in KL and days because I was giving space for my dad's 4th year anniversary of his passing. Always an emotional time for me and he deserves a top space in my blog for a few days. Well, now I'm back to my ever so normal self!!! Not going to talk about KL just yet as I've yet to have taken picture of the things I have bought!!! This just proves that I didn't buy my so called camera that I was suppose to buy in KL.....sigh....got carried away with buying shoes and clothes. So buying a camera is postpone to next year. I still have a very old camera at hand....so that will do for the time being. Unfortunately, I didn't being it everywhere I went when I was in KL. I'm sooooo NOT a camera person....I think I've got to learn to be one, if not you guys will be bored as hell reading my blog....

Anyway, the reason I'm blogging tonight is because tomorrow is the Shell Games!!! It has finally arrived!!! I'm not exactly prepared, but than again, I'm not exactly nervous either....hmmm...I guess it just hasn't hit me yet that I'm playing tomorrow or I had a couple of beers that kinda calm my nerves...hmmm...i think its the first!!! Seriously!!! it has yet to hit me....

I wonder how I will do tomorrow....I think I just need to not think so much about it. I hope the girl pool player isn't all that good...that way at least I know we would have a chance of winning!!! I mean the guys on our team are seriously good.....but its me I'm worried about. I'm worried that I would screw up the game for them. However, me saying I'm worried now, is not very helpful cause I sure am not worried at the moment....hmmm...could be the couple of beers that I had. Or I'm just to tired and couldn't be bothered about what's going to happen.

Ok, I'm going on and on about nothing...hahaha....anyway, wish me luck guys....I think I'm going to try and stay calm till the game and during the game! If not, like I said before, I'd probably have to one-go the beer!!! Thank goodness that alcohol and pool comes hand in hand....hahaha. From what I've heard and tried myself, the more you drink, the more accurate you get!!! It's TRUE!!!! but of course, don't over do it lah! That would be considered stupid already :D.

Bah! time to sleep already!!! If not I won't be able to wake up early tomorrow as I've got to go to church as it is a day of obligation and the mass starts ar 6.30am, then I would have to be at KRP at 7.30am for the opening ceremony....WAH! everything is so early tomorrow!!! Ok, ok, better sleep!!!

One more thing (as usual, once I start I just cannot end), I so hope they have people taking pictures during the shell games tomorrow so I can post them up in here....if not....sigh...sorry, no pictures. Hmmmm....maybe I can get my husband to be my photographer for tomoro....hmmm...its a thought! Now, I just need to get him to agree with me on that....hahaha...very unlikely!!! Oklah! Goodnight guys!!! Will promise to post about the things I did in KL(which wasn't much, besides shopping!!!) and about how the Shell games turn out to be!!! :D

P/S. Next weekend I'll be in KK again playing netball!!!! (I miss netball!!! I hope the girls win the shell games this year!!! We have yet to become champions, but I think this year we just might have a chance....especially since it is played on home ground and we have lots of supporters...its just sad that I can't play with them this year....*sniff**sniff*). Anyway, seriously can't wait to start playing netball again and YEAY!!! It's a FREE TRIP lagik tu!!! Screw my ankle!!! I'm going!!! :P

That's it from me!!! TA!!!!

Netball or Pool???

I've injured my ankle yet again!!! This is like the 4th time and next Saturday there is a church joggerthon which I have been looking forward to win...haha..not sure if I would though..but there was hope until now....sigh...all this because of my love for netball lah...hiyah! netball punya pasal...hahaha....but I love netball what to do...

The other dilemma is there is this Games coming up in August and I'm scared that if I join the netball team I would hurt my ankle even worst...sigh...so now I have another option and that is to play pool...so would it be netball or pool??? Hmmm...netball or pool??? Can't play both cause it clashes on the same day.

Hmmm...but than again, I'm not sure whether I'll get chosen or not...haha...probably I'm not even that good to play for both of them...haha...prasan nya aku :P

But if I do get chosen...that I won't know which to choose!!! Ahhhhh!!!! Additional stress to my life (small stress lah but stress nevertheless...haha :P)

Ok..that's it from me complaining. At the moment I should concentrate on getting this ankle better and preparing myself for the joggerthon...wish me luck guys!!! It's next Saturday!!! If I do win by some chance.....haha...who knows bah, suddenly everybody sakit and I'm the only one who turns up to run...haha...than I'll take picture of the hamper that I win....hopefully the hamper big big one lah...:D

Pool????

Or Netball??? Sigh....tough choice with my ankle being in this position :(

Pictures taken in KK!!!

I finally manage to get some pictures of me and the netballers in KK. Have fun looking!!!

This is one of the rooms we stayed in...
This is the toilet we had...not the one I use as I was in a different appartment and I didn't have a camera to take the toilet I used but nevertheless it looks exactly the same...accept...


....that we didn't have a water fountain in ours...haha...if you look closely you can see the water pancuting out from the flusher thingy (don't really know what its called)..apparently, they had a geomatics engineer to "TRY" and fix it....and TA-DA! that's what happens....hahaha...that's what I heard lah...from reliable sources :P

That's part of the kitchen....I assume that it can be converted into a bar if you stay there permanently :)

That's the cooking area....really nice eh!....we manage to cook some maggie mee from here (again, this is not a pcture from our kitchen but its pretty much the same!)

This is the nice living room we had...very nice a cosy...that's Olivia there...one of our netballers...we just arrive so she's testing the sofa before anyone else...

Us looking all fresh and ready to win the game!!!...Well actually, wether we win or lose it wouldn't really matter cause we all were just happy to be in KK!!!

Another picture before the game....yea..yea..we girls love to take picture...its second nature to us...sebut camera saja and everybody is so excited!!! Hahaha...muka 5 sen already everybody!!!

This time this picture is taken with the Sabah netballers as well, if you look closely to one of them you will notice that one of them has very very long eye lashes!!! I think that was a tactic to distract us during the game...hahaha....we even had our players admit that they were seriously distracted by the eyelashes that they forget to actually play the game....hahaha....

That's me running without the ball, not sure whether I was running in the right direction....hahaha...the one who has the ball is Olivia...I think....

That's Ernyza shooting....she very cun wan....I think that went in!!! Sylvia is under the net ready to catch it so she could try shoot if the ball didn't go in....kerjasama lah, that's what we call it...

We also share shoes!!! You see, if one player is playing very well or not playing very well but nevertheless has to come out due to some injury, the other player who takes over her position must use her shoes!!! Nasib Val sama size kaki....hahaha... :P

That's me and Norol watching the guys football. Not that we wanted to be there but we didn't have much of a choice. We netballers always have to do the waiting. We waited when we first arrive to play because the badmintoners (if there is such a word) had to play first. Than after the game, we had to wait again because the bus just wouldn't take us home without the footballers...so that's how I ended up in front of the football field...

The two beautiful models/cheerleaders for the football team aka netballers!!! Tengah waiting also lah for them to finish...so while waiting ambik gambar lah...what else to do???

As for this lady here (Ernyza), I don't know lah what she is doing....meditating eh....what you doing ah En??? Posing kah? Posing with full concentration to the sea is it??? Or trying to lepas geram because we all had to wait so long for the footballers??? (footballers lagik!:P)

Still waiting....see the sun want to go down already....wait so long already...so take picture again lah!!! From as much as I can see. that is Munah our Coach facing directly to the camera, Norol next to her on the right our ever so steady GK (don't mess with her, she very lihai wan!!!), and on the far right is our Captain/Team Manager, CYNTHIA!!!! ...hahaha...I write like I'm giving a special awards to Cynthia like that...hahaha....

And that is the Sun setting....so beautiful kan!!! Seriously KK is one heck of a place....wouldn't mind moving there for a year or two till I get really bored than come back to Miri again...hehe...

That's all I have for now....tune back for more pictures...once I have received them..TA...

Back from KK!!!

I just got back from KK last Sunday from our KRP sports trip and I seriously had a blast. Wish I didn't have to come back to the real world of early mornings and work..haha..but despite all that, I am glad to be home cause I've missed my little monster...:P.

When we reached KK around 8.45am on a Friday morning, we were excited to see our living place for the next 2 nights. Sad to say, when we arrived at the Likas Apartment, we were greeted with a very old looking building which didn't have much life in it anymore. The first thing that came to my mind was, I seriously hope this place is not HAUNTED (I'm seriously hopeless when it comes to old building, I somehow always manage to relate it with ghosts!!!). Anyway, we were given our keys to the apartments which we were suppose to be in. While walking towards the room we were again greeted with a corridor that was not carpeted and not even air-conditioned and I mentioned to one of netballers "I hope the inside is nicer than the outside". And when we finally reach our door to the apartment, we got the key in, turn the lock and to everybody's surprise, the apartment was beautiful!!! It had 3 rooms and I think it was just refurbished....so everything was pretty brand new. So I was happy. Unfortunately, the toilet had a bit of problem cause the water didn't want to go down after we showered and the other apartment had a natural water fountain in their toilet...hahaha....but all was good! As long as we all had a good bed to sleep in.

After we unpacked and rested for a bit it was time for us to go down to play our netball. Netball was good as we won 31 - 4 to Yayasan Sabah. It was a good win and definitely a game to remember. Especially the netballer from Yayasan Sabah who had fake eyelashes on and a lot of powder on her face!!! I remebered someone saying "Is this a modelling competition or netball???" hahaha...if it was a modelling competition, they might have won us hands down!!! :P

That night we all went to Cock and Bull to watch the Pool Competition. It was a slim win overall and a good fight from the pool players!!! After the win, which was around 2am...a few of us went to grab something to eat...and you know what I discovered, I discovered fried pork intestines!!! WAH!!!! they were seriously fantastic!!!!! (My apologies to the muslims for my comments here!Sorry....:)). Until today I still cannot forget it!!! Don't think I will ever forget it till I go back to KK again and eat it. After that we went home and had a good night sleep. Time was 3am.

The next day I woke up at 6.30am....I was so upste that I woke up at that time because i knew I didn't have enough sleep, but I couldn't go back to sleep no matter how hard I tried! Finally at 7.30am I decided to wake up and catch the 9am bus to the city. So I got ready and down we all went to the city!!! The first destination we went to was an eating place which sold bah kut teh because we were all so so so hungry, and I think that took us almost 1 hour just to look for it since we got lost a few times. After that we went to the FIlipino market. I bargained and bought a few stuffs from there and then we went to Warisan Square. A very nice building, I think Miri should build something like that. I mean look at Miri and KK!!! KK has grown so much in only 6 years, since I was last there in 2002. As for Miri, not much has been done accept the fly over!!! No new shopping malls!!! So sad!!! Back to my story, at 1pm we caught the bus back to our Apartment and rested till aroud 4.30pm, where one of our netballers wanted to check out the other supermarket...so off we went walking towards that supermarket only to discover that it was a Muzeum of some sort...HAHAHA.....and surprisingly we were not the only ones who were walking in that direction....so much for checking out the other so called supermarket. After that we went back to the old supermarket which was connected to the Apartment just to waste time. After that we went back and prepared ourselves for the dinner that night with the Yayasan Sabah people.

Dinner was not too bad and after the dinner we took pictures (we had already taken so much pictures during the last few days) and we went home and just hanged out. We didn't go out cause we all were feeling the tiredness from the previous night. Played cards, watch tv and went to sleep around12.30am.

The next day we woke up to catch the bus to town before we headed for the airport. Went to Gaya street than to the Filipino market again to buy last minute souviniers. Walked back to Wisma Merdeka to catch the bus and while waiting for the bus, I manage to buy two baju's which cost RM2/ each!!! I seriously couldn't believe it, but hey its worth being small sized like me cause baju's that fit me sometimes are not bought and therefore becomes clearance stock!!! I was very happy with the purchase as it felt lik buying kolok mee!!! :P life is good!!!

After that we all caught the bus to the airport and went back home to Miri and everything is back to normal.

KK is a beautiful place! Definitely a place where I would go back over and over again in the near future. Thanks KK for the RM2 shirts!!! Will put some pictures up when I get them :)

I'm Back from KK!!!!

Sorry it took me awhile to get back into blogging. Sometimes I'm just way too busy and don't have the time to spend doing this.



Anyway, I just got back from KK after out KRP sports trip there and I realised that KK is such a beautiful place!!! I had so much fun that I dreaded to come back to Miri and start work again...hahaha...but I did miss my daughter despite all the fun. I mean most moms/dads will definitely feel the same :).



We arrive in KK in

KK here I come!!!

I'll be going to KK on the 2nd to the 4th May and I'm so excited. Main reason for going is to play netball!!! And the best part is, its kinda like a friendly match between Yayasan Sabah and us (KRP) and the rest of the time we will be free to do whatever we want!!! How cool is that??? We only need to pay RM100 (and I'm not sure what this is for) and flight and accomodation is provided. I seriously think that's a fantastic deal. Can't wait to have fun, especially with the Ladies!!! KK!!! here we come!!!

KK, KK beautiful KK,
Please be nice and sunny,
But please don't burn us, OK?
Cause we might look funny!

KK, KK, beautiful KK,
I seriously hope there's a Padini,
But please have discounts, OK?
Cause we tak cukup money!

*wink*
