Been feeling rather sloth-like and blubber-like lately. Even when I climb stairs, I feel tired and lethargic! The stamina has gone down greatly thanks to a whole month of no-swimming and no-jogging (thanks to my frequent weekends away and the haze). I used to be how fit and healthy! Now it's like.... nua blubber blubber blubber nua sloth and nom nom nom nom (from the non-stop eating).

THIS GETS SERIOUS GUYS! Can't run away from the glaring fact - it's the extra 3 kilos that I've been carrying around. ㅠ.ㅠ

I IZ NOW AN OMNOMNOMIVORE

 *weeps in despair*

Haha oh well it's "happiness weight" as the Saint says but honestly I can do without it hahaha. Happiness weight, you can find someone else stick to! We can be happy without the extra weight right?

ANYWAYS! The point of this entry is. OK I don't know what's the point except to share that cute OMNOMNOMNIVORE picture hahahaha because that describes my life now perfectly.

Oh oh oh and I'm also pathetically broke and dying and eating grass and I can't wait for July 25th to come BECAUSE I IS NEEDING MY BONUS NAO!!!

Oh oh oh and also as our luck would have it, the grey smelly haze followed us to KL while it was all clear blue sunny skies in SG. Zzzzzzz. But ok that's it to all the travelling, no more travelling for me till October (Nepal!). I just tried to pay my income tax and the AXS machine told me I have insufficient funds to pay by NETS. Yes that's how broke I am. Haha. Of course, it's not like my taxes are some ridiculously high amount or something. Monkey here earns peanuts. Rahhhh. *slinks away*

Whoop whoop, imma certified open water diver now! v(^_^)v

 

Must pose v(^_^)v as I unglamorously crashed into corals (can't control my body well underwater haha). Emerged with a few little nicks and cuts here and there.

 

Our group! Everyone looks the same underwater haha. I'm the one on the left :D

 

On the surface with our stern looking dive instructor Michael

We've only got a few precious underwater photos courtesy of our groupmate's friend. Underwater cameras and casings are so expensive! The case for my Olympus EPM-1 is $1k. Say whut?!?! I bought my camera for only $600+ leh.

Still, it was an interesting and pretty cool experience despite my initial apprehension. The skills were boring but we still had to go through it. The fun part was the leisure dive, and we saw a turtle! *achievement unlocked* Haha. And so it's another ONE OFF THE BUCKET LIST! :D I've cleared the mountain, I've cleared the sea, next up, I think I wanna skydive! OK maybe trek Nepal, then take my Advanced diving first, then we save money, we go see Aurora Bourellis, then we skydive. So many things to do before I turn 30, I don't know if I have enough time (or money). ㅠ.ㅠ Did I mention that I have $1.82 left in my travel fund?

But yes, all on the bucket list. Will tick them off one by one eventually!

Also, I got kissed by an elephant (in Phuket) :3

 

Very enthusiastic, this one

 

I think she likes Paul more haha

And I finally found some time to bake! Tried the Red Velvet Cheesecake Brownies again; my friend has been requesting me to bake it again for her since one year ago.

 

Swirly swirls 

 

Someone commented on Instagram that it looked like raw beef :(

  

Easy peasy nutella brownies that I made into the form of cupcakes

Can't remember if I left anything important out but what's been hogging the news these days is the terrible, terrible haze. It hit 401 today and it's really unfortunate because I had plans to go to Legoland tomorrow. :(

So Legoland was postponed, and I thought I'd stay at home and bake some banana cake while wishing that I was breathing underwater from an oxygen tank. But within a few hours, we decided to escape smoky Singapore and now I'm scooting off to KL for the weekend to get away from the haze. Haha. Talk about impromptu.

June is shaping up to be a rather happening month. It's an overseas trip every weekend for the third consecutive week running! Haha and may I reiterate that I only have $1.82 left in my travel fund. Hurhurhur. Live now, pay later. Bonus coming in July!!! Then I need to sit down and take a long and hard look at where I am going from here.

Completed my second Sundown 10km run in the wee hours of 1 June despite not really training for it. Haha sad case. My weekly jogs have become monthly jogs because somehow or another there was always something happening on Sunday (and also I'm slowly but surely gaining weight! EEK!!!).

Clocked 01:15:46 which is the best 10km time that I've had so far, ok la, achievement achievement. It was horribly crowded as usual, as one would have come to expect at such runs. I spent half the time weaving in and out of the crowd and trying to siam people.

Wah I have too many things happening right now, went to Genting, went for a Jay Chou concert, just came back from a chillax trip from Phuket and scooting off to Dayang again on Friday night for my first ever diving trip 0_0 and I'm not sure if there will be more to come haha. I'm living my life by the weekends now!
