Background: Sakura Petals

I felt like a change and since spring is in the air and summer is not that far away, I decided to change the background of this blog a bit. It's still sakura-related, though they're the real kind! Photo of these sakura petals were taken by none other than Bibi (remember I mentioned that we were so sakai with the trees at the botanical garden, haha!). I had to rotate the image by 90 degrees. Anyway, thanks, Bibi! ;D

Occasion: June's Birthday (but not in June, hehe!)

No, she's not 12 years old or below, though she may wish she was, haha! ;p For that matter, so do I! Anyway, just wishing my dearest friend June an extremely brilliant birthday on the wonderful day of 20th May! You know, for a long time, I kept mistaking the month of her birthday because of her name, haha! XD Anyway, lots of best wishes and miss you lots! xxx

Weekly Goals: Week 21 [2008]

Ack, what's this?! Only 25% of my goals for this week was achieved??? [sigh] Well, there is a reason for it, spent most of the time blogging, and also on Thursday, I did my first Shape & Burn class - I overdid it, and now my lower back muscles are hurting like mad, doing the Fatburner class on Saturday almost killed me! :( So going to lay off strenuous exercise for several days till my back's better. And that special report will have to wait, sorry! Hence, my goals for Week 21 are as follows:

Fitness:
- update [22.05.2008]: I had to change the fitness schedule since we're off to Frankfurt and Bonn on Saturday so today's routine has been moved to tomorrow (for packing purposes!) and Saturday's classes have been cancelled! Need to be better with fitness next week when I'm back in Berlin!

• Friday: 30 mins cross-trainer, 30 mins treadmill, 8-10 mins rowing machine [X]
  
• Food intake: no more than 20 WW points per day (on average!) [X]
• Weight loss: 1 kilo (by watching my eating habits, hehe!) [X]
