Muay Thai anyone????

In a crazy spur of the moment moment, I decided to take up Thai kick-boxing or Muay Thai. It was Sl's idea to start up this class (I think). So my usual gang - J, L and moi decided to join. I was interested in kick-boxing way before I even started going to the gym but the nearest class was inconvenient for me. This class is in Bangsar, practically down the road so it was good for me. The 1st class was last Tuesday. The instructor walks in and we look in awe. It's this tiny guy with a tight, tight, tight body. Damn! Plus he had a nice ass! hehehe The first class was torturous. It was more strenuous than my gym sessions. By the end of the class we were all shaking with fatigue and exhaustion. Then we get news that a friend's father passed away in Penang. So J, L and R had to leave. I met D & Sb at Devi's. They were laughing at my fatigue...sheesh. With frens like them, no one needs enemies. =) Took 3 days for the muscle ache to subside. But it was good. I like muscle soreness, it feels good and bad at the same time.

Second class was fun! We had a blast punching and kicking. We really enjoyed that one. Thought that this week, the muscle soreness would not be too bad, but no.....it hurt like hell the next day. Went for a massage cos I was struggling to walk without feeling pain. The massage was really painful as well. This Balinese masseuse (did i spell this correctly? - oh f**k it) kneaded and pinpointed the sore points. I was in real pain. After the torture, I felt pretty ok. Slept like a baby that night. Sigh* Why do people put themselves through this kind of torture? =) But, I'm all excited about next week's class.....haiiiiiiiii yaaaaaakkkkk!!!!!

Can't wait for buka pusa with S & Y tomorrow....Yay!!!

Me & U...

Met up with my cousin R yesterday. She and I grew up together. Even as kids we stuck to each other. She's a year older to me and I used to look up to her. We have an unexplainable bond, something like what sisters would share. But for a long time, both of us did not have sisters and so we were drawn to each other. We used to fight like hell also, both she and my brother would gang up on me. But her mum used to take my side. We fought, squabbled, cried and laughed together. We use to have these crazy dreams and plans of what we would like to do when we grew up. Some of our fantasies were so crazy, we still laugh about it. We planned that we would go to college together and stay together and work at the same place. hahaha. Dreams of the innocent! We obviously did not think we'd meet other people along the way. It was always just the 2 of us. After a while, when I moved to the East Coast, we kinda drifted apart. But it was not a rift that could not be patched. Whenever we met up it was as if we were not separated at all. There was no awkwardness which you usually feel when you don't meet someone for a while.
Anyway. We had a great time last night. We went for dinner, then went back to her place. WE were up for most of the night, talking and talking and talking, trying out outfits and stuff. sigh* missed the good ol' days. Missed her company a lot. It was all too familiar and comforting. Maybe that was just what I needed....

In good times and in bad!

A close friend of mine is going through a divorce right now. S is a beautiful, intelligent person with a great personality. And yet, her husband has issues with her and decides to walk out. They knew each other since they were 12. They were together for 4 years. They were married for 2 years. 2 years! Why? It's so frustrating that something that should take up the rest of your life (marriage) can only last 2 years. D and I tried helping S realise the issues behind his decision. She blames herself for having security issues. She felt insecure with him. I'd like to think his actions caused her to feel that way. She defends him saying that I can't blame him for the way she feels! I only agree to a certain extent, but his behaviour drives her to feel that way. He's manipulative, sneaky and a flirt. Sigh* he even used to flirt with me and I told him numerous times that he should not be talking that way especially when his wife is my friend.

S on the other hand has good days and bad days. She would still give him a chance if he came back. From an outsider's perspective, "how could she be so stupid to want him back after all he's done to her?" But it's easier said than done. I totally understand how she feels. I myself still have an attachment to a certain bastard! Thang God I have good frens who support me no matter what. D is the reality check, she says it as it, she tells you you're dumb to your face. If I need to cry, J is there to support me. She's always had my back. I don't know how I would survive if I didn't have frens like these. So here's to good frens who are there for better or worse....Luv ya guys.

If tomorrow never comes....

If tomorrow never comes

Will they know how much I loved them

Did I try in every way to show them every day

That they are mine alone

And if my time on earth were through

And they must face this world without me

Is the love I gave them in the past

Gonna be enough to last

If tomorrow never comes

Feeling a little melancholic these few days.....and this song kinda touched me. Of course I changed the lyrics a bit....
