General Update

I've been sick since the hot springs -- I firmly believe my flu was caused by the public bathing. Either it was the cold/hot/cold/hot combination or I caught someone else's bacteria/germs/virus. I've been sick for 4 days now, which is crap.

On another note, I've been addicted to Australia's Next Top Model (Cycle 3) via YouTube and Spooks (we're up to Season 5 now) via some loaned DVDs. I've also been watching Project Runway Philippines and Project Runway Australia. Hehe.

If I slack off blogging in the next few days, at least you'll know why.

On Getting Fit

I'm trying to get myself motivated enough to start exercising. This morning, I pulled out all the DVDs, books and equipment I bought a couple of weeks back in my bid to get motivated.

Kick ass pilates mat, 1kg weights, exercise ball and accompanying book and DVD,
Pilates book with DVD
(Yes, I went all out. What can I say? Rebel Sport had a sale. They did! No, really.)

I'm going to try and set aside 15-30 minutes every week day. I think I'll start with the pilates as it's designed with 15 minute exercises. And it's not as scary as the ball exercises.

(disregard the mess around the TV)


I still have to figure out how to make space in the lounge room so that I can easily do my workout. And how I'm going to get up earlier than 7.30am in the middle of winter. Give me a break, it's still dark out at that time!

My goal this week is to actually start the routine. Let's see how I go.
