What’s the definition of clean eating? Based on the information I’ve obtained so far from relevant fitspo sources, it’ll be a diet characterized by LOW SUGAR (Sugar = My biggest nemesis!!!), GOOD FAT, HIGH FIBRE, HIGH PROTEIN…

For example – Yoghurt. Cottage cheese (EWW). Oatmeal. Chicken Breast (EWW). Turkey (YUM). Salmon (DOUBLE YUM). Almonds (Crunch crunch! Yum!). And lots of FRUITS (Not big on fruits though) and VEGETABLES. And WATER.

My idea of a perfect meal:

The reason for my non-existent abs? S U G A R.

Oh well.. I just bought Post’s Banana Nut Crunch this morning. Which (IMO) isn’t as sweet as Maple Pecan Crunch! 😡 Exactly.

Donning on both his swimming googles AND my shades – Always full of antics. Never fail to amuse me (and the rest of the family).

Om nom nom… BBQ is just an excuse for me to stuff my face with SATAY.

Yes, satay is my weakness. As much as I try to eat healthy, I can NEVER resist satay. The ones yesterday were, as Mr Kentucky Fried Chicken would say, finger-licking-good. Well marinated and BBQ-ed to the right texture. Plus they were all made of pure, tender meat, without any lumps of fat (I always feel so cheated when this happen).

What a Scorching Hot Day

I could really use a bowl of Red Ruby  right now. Just imagine that blended icy goodness…

P.S I never knew that those red rubies actually consist of water chestnuts in them!  SOOOO GOOD.

And a dip in the (infinity) pool is definitely an excellent idea. 2013-04-12 18.38.07

But of course, I will always choose Summer over Winter 😉

Life resolution: To maintain a HEALTHY lifestyle!

1. Exercise regularly

(Read: Time management. I think I’m faring well so far because of the flexibility I enjoy as a student. Not so sure about this after I start working…)

2. Eat well 

(Read: Learn to cook. I can’t cook to save my life 😦 I’ve only fried an egg ONCE?!! Ok, enough of procrastination. I shall learn how to stir fry some simple dishes before I start work! And oh, I definitely have to do something about the incessant snacking.)

3. Sleep well

(Read: Time management. I have a very regular sleeping pattern, so it’s not much of a worry. Similar to regular exercise, I hope I’ll be able to keep this up after I start working. I’ll be very unhappy if my sleep cycle gets disrupted cuz of work. Just. Not. Worth. It.)

4. Positive thinking

(Read: Learn to focus on the positive, and not dwell on the negative. At the end of a baaaad day (esp. a self-imposed one), I always tell myself – “Tomorrow can only get better.” And it does! Power of the mind.)

YOLO!!!

Wow, pardon the verbal diarrhea. I must be really bored.

And the countdown begins

Right now, all that’s on my mind is GRADUATION TRIP! Minus the graduation part…

Ok, who am I kidding. Of course the thought of graduation is all over my head! But let me be clear on this – While I’m excited about the trip, I can’t deny that I’m worried at the same time. BECAUSE I HAVE NOT GOTTEN A JOB!!! YET. I was pretty disappointed with myself that I didn’t put my best foot forward after passing the AC… Overconfidence ruins you. And I learnt that the hard way.

Meanwhile, I should STOP spending unnecessarily. -> Clearly, this phrase has been overused.

And we’re amazing together

The past week/weekend has been nothing short of AMAZING. It felt pretty surreal. My very good friend whom I’ve known since 9, came back from the States for a visit (She migrated 6 years ago).

As I type I’m overwhelmed by a huge wave of nostalgia, and ever so thankful we made the effort to stay in touch.
