3 more days until I go back Ipoh I thought to myself as I crawl out of my bed. Even stretching my body hurts due to my rather brutal methods of exercising. And yet somehow in one way or the other, I will get the motivation to persevere and see that I try to stick to the schedule closest possible. I guess the 8-9 months of exercising last year helped to establish a strong base and thus my body is still holding out. I am only worried about the long-term effects that may not be felt or seen now. For example, I wonder if the constant running on the pavement will destroy my knees eventually. Anyway I went along with my plans today and I bumped into the 2 ladies that I described yesterday. However, thanks to the constant exposure to the Korean Wave, it is not as exciting anymore. Guess I prefer watching girls with their personalities than random chicks along the road.
Anyway thinking along with my workout plans, I never really thought about what I will do when I reach my target level of fitness. I am not sure if I will be continuing the same level of intensity. Furthermore, there is no telling if I will have the same amount of freedom in the future as my career hopefully progresses. I don't really know if slacking a bit will let me maintain this level of muscle tone or not. Can I go back to eating more once my diet is over? Well this is the problem with planning without real knowledge or experience. Currently I am just going about with whatever feels correct based on what I read online as well. I think that is the most important point because not all human bodies are built the same. So, listening to my body and observing the changes is the best way for free right now.
Holy crap I am laughing so hard watching variety shows on Astro now. It is actually pretty refreshing to blog outside of my room with a TV in front of me. I think this post is going to take at least 2 hours to finish. Anyway I was planning to talk about my work pointless it may be. Due to the impending Chinese New Year holidays, the office have been rather quiet and everyone is kind of relaxed. Well actually I think I am the most relaxed there since I finished my tasks early. It is actually rather awkward to be there when 2 other colleagues beside me is working while I am slacking off. Honestly, I myself don't feel right though I bet a lot of people might say otherwise. What would you have done? I cannot exactly bring myself to learn something or explore certain things randomly. I also do not like things halfway.
I guess thankfully, I was given a project later in the day based on an idea quite some time ago. I like doing new things rather than doing maintenance work or debugging. Most developers will agree on the same thing. Though I have heard some that actually like doing testing work. Anyway, I guess this is the main reason why I chose to join this part of the IT industry instead of sticking with application development. It is far more dynamic and provides more market value in the long run. This company is awesome too since they actually listen to employee ideas and sometimes they do get the green light as a new project. Though I cannot judge accurately yet because it has not even been 1 year since I started working there. Now everyone is awaiting news of possible increment or bonus. I guess that is typical for all chinese employees considering the time of the year.
Somehow I manage to wrap this up before it got too late. I am running out of things to say anyway. Can't wait for the Chinese New Year holidays to arrive. Even though Ipoh celebrations are rather conservative and quiet, but the very fact that it will be a holiday is already good enough for me. I just want to lie around and do whatever I want whenever I want to. There are already invitations for reunion events among friends though I seriously wonder how many of them I can actually attend. I do not have transport in Ipoh. Enough of my banter, take care and enjoy Wednesday!!!
