Seems like this blog is becoming a "8 Days every week" thingy. It was unintentional! As time is really a premium now, due to a new persistent problem of mine, let's keep it easy for your eyes.. haha.

Yesterday, finally there was a chance for me to join a new sports club in SMU and that's SMU Dragonboat! The training was real tough, and I nearly fainted halfway, ended up lying about 1 minute on the toilet floor. But it just shows that I am terribly unfit. The killer was the circuit training! Though different from the circuit training in PE in secondary school, the result was still same: I was rendered breathless for a cool 20minutes. Anyway, I will certainly continue the training so as to improve my fitness and also I hope that will help me in other sports such as yoga, football, badminton, etc. I will also hope to represent the team in future competitions! But that means I have to work really hard because many of them are really very strong and fit (for some, despite their size, they could still complete the circuit training relatively unharmed!)

On Saturday, a new initiative brought up by me titled Sporting Weekly finally began with 4 of the Rabbit Family having a nice badminton time at Kebun Baru CC. Hope to have more of the family joining in, which in turn should help everyone improve their fitness slowly. The next Sporting Weekly event though is gonna be less of an workout but more like a brain workout.. haha. Stay tuned!

I had finally settled for 4.5 modules, dropping the history module from my bidded 5.5 modules because of my problem (which I mentioned earlier) and that I had already missed 2 classes, thereby losing out in a whole lot of stuff. I will have to forfeit the e$ used, but I still have more than e$150, so should be able to last me through the final two terms. This term seems to have a theme, centering around leadership and management. And that's another reason for dropping the history module... yah. Overall these modules seem to have plenty of readings and readings... something I'm not really accustomed to despite preparing very much throughout the holidays. Oh well, just let do and live with it.

Finally, let's talk about that problem I am having. It's actually a bad habit, which I cultivated in the holidays... reading before bedtime. I suppose if you read a few pages it would be good but usually by the time I log off MSN, it's already 1+am, then I would read and furiously read stuff, sometimes up till 4am! And the bad thing is that I would be pretty much awake around 7+am, but my brain says let's sleep some more and boom! By the time I wake up again, half the day has gone (12nn) and a bite, a washup, and time to go to school. This is also the CHIEF reason why I dropped the history module, it's an 830am class on Monday!

Oh well, time to rethink some strategies on how to sleep less, and earlier, because usually the most productive parts of my day are the morning hours, and based on that notion, I have already designated those hours to do important stuff in my weekly timetable... SIGH SIGH SIGH.. how can I ever be successful in executing what I planned!?
