A new phone

Finally decided on iPhone and went ahead to get one last week - an iPhone 4! And this was after much deliberation.

So, for about a week now, I have been exploring this new phone, downloading and trying and deleting apps - games, books, news, etc, etc...

Life's never boring again. Except that battery sucks, as always known for iPhones. But I have to live with it and manage it.

Been playing games like coin/cookies dozers, flick fishing and others.

Mmmm...I will probably be one of those who will strongly recommend iPhones (despite the bad battery) for real entertainment.

Will update more.

Jogging....all the way

I have been sticking my butt on the sofa, playing computer for too long. Weeks back, I have started making myself get out of the potato couch position and to the park to start my jog. The start went well and continues to be so for now. The challenge is to keep it going.

The difference between now and then was that I insisted on jogging in the morning when the sky was still dark. Now I can jog at almost anytime of the day - morning, noon, afternoon, late afternoon. Have not tried evening and night yet.

Keep it up.

Where to go?

Been planning for a short trip with hubby since August and we keep delaying by the month until it's now 3 months later!

It's been a while since we both went on a trip - just two of us. We are trying to plan for another one - look like it has to be a short trip now though we initially talked about a longer vacation.

My Dec to Jan 'free' period will be quite limited due to another plan. So now, we are pondering the when and where.

Should it be Batam (Harris), Bintan, Cruise, or?

Hope our plan materialises soon.

Damn my bloody computer!

It hanged 4 times on me while I did the previous post! DAMN! Managing blogger is already a pain, and having to deal with my damn erratic computer is making me go nuts.

I wish it just die so that I know what to do next. But now, one moment it's ok, one moment when you are so engrossed with something, it dies on you....Not once, but many times.

Can I just give it a euthanasia (to be 'humane') or just murder it to get rid of my pain once and for all!!! DAMN!

Moments with Yoga

I have finally decided that I have slacked so much to the stage which is scaring me lots. Other than trying to bring jogging back to my life (eg weekend jogs) I have also signed up for yoga class at my community club.

I was a little apprehensive at first as my very early experiences with yoga did not end good. But I wanted to go at it again. So this time, I went to get a yoga mat. My first lesson began this Wed (3 Nov). One hour per week. Coincidentally, one of my colleague was also in the class.

The first lesson started well. Thank goodness this time round, I didn't feel the discomfort from my body when I first tried it close to 10 years ago. But it did strained some of my back parts which I think it's good.

Other than some basic stretches, the instructor taught us the Sun Salutation movement. 12 steps in all, but I can't remember everything after just one lesson. Anyway, this will be reinforced in our coming lessons and I hope I can master it smoothly as we go along.

Found a clip on YouTube on the movements: Sun Salutation (Yoga for beginners)
