Wow

Wow. Wow because it's going to be February tomorrow already!!! My my my....

Today was as usual. Taught my lovely kids. Got peed on.

Oh and I did my first run for my training. 5km. Continued my workout by sweeping and mopping the floor.

I absolutely recommend the magical mop from Japan. It's SGD$10.

We use it at my school and I tried it at home. It soaks up spilt water and pee in an instant. It cleans surfaces well too and is easy to clean and keep. It's not like those cloth materials that look like corn rows and where lots of dirt get stuck on forever.

Anyways I tried to look it up on google but apparently there are a dozen other magical mops and not the one I'm talking about hahaha.

I forgot the brand and exact name but here's a picture of my mop:

Yeah. That's all :)

This is what happens when blogging everyday. No other interesting topic to blog about but mops??!! Hahaha

My Plans

The other app fails to upload my post. The thing with the other app is I can choose when and in what order I want the pictures in. But this one it only comes at the end and in any random order which is frustrating.

Anyhow, my half marathon training starts this weeks and lasts for 12 weeks. It is an app on my phone but I also summarized it and printed it out by week to see the whole picture. I stuck it on the wall in the living room before our door haha.

I also have the map of my area so I can choose the route I want to run or cycle. I also stuck my house chores for each day of the week.

And I'm trying my best to make it a habit to wake up earlier for prayer and devotion each morning as well as night devotion and prayer with Bayu each night.

I also want to finish a second book by EGW the Desire of Ages since I really enjoyed the Great Controversy.

Every single one of my plans from the minutest to big ones I pray to God about it because he does care about such things.

I don't think I could do anything without Him and I really want Him to be the centre of my life. In my 25 years of living I know a life disconnected from God is no life at all.

Have or let's try to have a blessed week! :D

Keep smiling.

Argh!

I had a great day and tried to post about it 3 times on another blog app that's better than the one I'm using now and it's failed 3 times!

I'm going to bed first and will try to upload it again tomorrow.

Laterz!

Visiting

we just got back from Church Chinese New Year visitation.

We divided into groups and went to different houses. I went to 2 houses.

The 2nd house was Simon's house. We got to meet his mom and his brother and his 3 nephews. They were all over the place but super cute.

They had fun with Bayu and Bayu had fun with them hahaa

The littlest one was so fascinated with bayu's tummy!

Bayu probably lost a few hundred calories carrying them haha.

It was fun. Got home and did my own work out - house cleaning! Dont know what got into me but I cleaned the whole house.

Tomorrow is Sunday! :( ? Hehee

Bike Buddies

For our half marathon training starting this Monday and for the next 12 weeks after that the schedule will initially go like this every evening:

Monday: rest
Tuesday: run
Wednesday: cross-train
Thursday: run
Friday: Rest
Saturday: cross-train
Sunday: long run

For cross-training days a suggested option besides walking,swimming, sports, aerobics etc was cycling. Below our building there was a bike shop and the cost of 2 bikes were in my budget so I bought one for Bayu and I last night!

He got me running shoes so I got him a bicycle. Right out of the shop we rode around 10km at least! I was even still wearing the top I wore to work lol. Here are some pics.

I never cease to be amazed at Gods blessings to us.

Happy Sabbath to all! I'm so glad it's the weekend!

Milo Etc

I have mentioned in previous posts one of my favorite drinks her is milo dinosaur. They usually sell it at Indian restaurants/stalls.

It's basically milo with ice and powder milo at the top.




I also posted about the different varieties they have Ina menu I took:



There is milo t-rex, king kong and Godzilla.

I have only tried the milo D (that's what it's called in short) until just the other weekend when I tried the Milo King Kong which is the milo D plus 2 scoops of ice cream.




Milo D is the most common while not all places have the other upgraded versions hehe.

I would love to tell you how the others taste but you know I'm trying to eat healthy right? Hehehehehehe

Here is another nice quote I found:

For Sister!

Bayu and I went for a run. We brought our ATM card because we planned to go grocery shopping. Towards the end of the run it dropped out of Bayu's pocket but 2 angel runners behind us picked it up. The evening could have turned out very differently.

I have reached half a year since I picked up my new hobby of running ( July 10,2011).

I have slacked in the morning devotion,eating healthy and eating a good breakfast department so I decided I will start now or it will be never.

Also next week i start my 12 week training for the half marathon.

So I have planned for breakfast and my snacking. Cereal/bread and salad. For snacking/dessert:juice,nuts,fruits,yoghurt...




This should last me a week or two...probably a week or a few days haha.




One small box of nuts I'll keep in my bag the other in my classroom. Fruits are for after breakfast at work coz I don't think I have time to eat a whole course at home.




I bought 2 cereals: whole wheat Cheerios and cocoa and hazelnut. Havnt tried them yet. It's something new.

This post is mostly dedicated to my sister who loves these kinds of food and who makes me appreciate that I can find these kinds of food here in Singapore at prices much cheaper than in Thailand.

Cheers! Trying to make healthiness (Spiritually and physically) a lifestyle...my lifestyle...our lifestyle...

Down

I put the Christmas tree down/away today. Can't wait to see it again :D

We went to a church members house today and played some dance games on kinect and ate and hung out.

Tomorrow is work again. I wanted to buy some groceries but the supermarket was still closed! Oh l, everything will be back to normal soon enough.

No more long holidays for me until march... Boohoo.

Still glad for a short week of work for me!

2 Oranges

Hello!

Stayed home and lazed around, cut bayu's hair them headed to my colleague's house. She is also a sister of a church member we knew pretty well at Balestier.

We ate until we were stuffed!!

Gong Xi Fa Coi!

Tomorrrow is another party....

I'm super stuffed! *burp

Have a Break

I'm literally having a break. It's Chinese new year celebration and even the supermarket are closed. Everything is closed. I've been sitting in front of the tv the whole day...

Just wanted to share some pictures of Kit Kats (chestnut flavor) oh and potato chip coated in chocolate! All created by the Japanese lol. The last picture is the normal kit Kay flavor but in a different kind of box. It opens up sideways and there are compartments to put other sweets. So clever!

Sabbath Outing

We went on a hike.

Got stuck in the pouring rain.

Closed the Sabbath together.

Were starving and had Indian food.

Another typical Sabbath for our church haha.

Celebration!

This is us - our school, staff, students celebrationg Chinese New Year.

It is a half day today.

Dragon Dance

Teachers entertaining the kids

In addition to my previous post... :P

This is the top/blouse I bought.

Chinatown

Going to Chinatown before Chinese New Year was the best idea ever!

I had to go after work today because my school is having a celebration and teachers need to wear red or Chinese costume. I decided I needed one coz we celebrate this every year. So I went in search of a top. I don't think the dress would look that appealing on me lol

So I met Bayu bought the top ate durian and enjoyed the sights and scenery. It was so festive I loved it !

Milo Pao

Milo on the go. Milo take away. Hot milo. Here just say "milo pao" and it means take away.

We also have it in plastic bags back in Thailand but without the draw-strings.

Nil &

Nothing much happened today... Went to work as usual.

In the afternoon for 3rd session prenursery class I got puked on by a girl crying for her mommy. You know the kind of crying where they cry with all their might and their lungs and then instead of a cough it's puke!

But I have body spray and lotion I used to make the smell go away after I have washed off what I can. Hehe.

Reminds me I should shower now.

Oh yeah and one more thing. When I write my blog posts just remember its only a small part of my life or day (like 10 seconds out of my life) meaning that's not everything you see haha.

So it's not like my blogs are all happy and my whole life is so perfect and happy lol and also my blogs are definitely not about "oh my life is so awesome and yours is not" haha just to make things clear.

Anyhoooooo. Gona shower then go for my "run" which to some you would call a jog considering my speed.

Laterz!

Blogyear Day 17

My 17th post on the 17th day of this year :D after all the spamming in my blog I can now say goodnight and see you tomorrow!

Oh btw this post is about the lock screen an wall paper pictures I am currently using on my phone.

Cheers!

Running Quotes

A few of my favorite running quotes/mottos :D

I think some of it can refer to other aspects of our lives too.
