Nutritional Diary 2012.01.10

azorite from karma: chapter 2As far as the new year goes, I’m no different from everyone else in the world. Our number one resolution?

“This year, for sure! I will lose those pounds!”

And every year, it’s the same story… “I gained weight!”

So how is this year going to be any different?

Well, there’s this blog sitting around doing nothing. It’s hardly ever updated anymore, since I don’t write as much as I used to. Not to mention that I’ve been concentrating on kurohiko.com most of the time. So in order for me to write more and keep up on my diet, I’m planning to update this blog 2-4 times a month regarding my exercise, diet, and binges!

This is probably going to be super tough and embarrassing. I’m already regretting writing about it, but I need to keep my mind focused on losing weight. Hey, if the world’s ending this year, might as well look good for it! And cosplay before everything blows to smithereens.

So how was my first week++ of January?

Looking pretty good! I’ve been keeping my rice portions down, although I did finish a full cup that one lunch with my mom. Chicken cordon bleu, why are you so tasty? Ah, and there was that one McDonald’s day where I had a Coke Float… I can’t help it! Coke is my comfort food! But I gotta do better next week and skip the soda!

I’ve been cooking vegetables for dinner meals though. Not every night, but it’s more veggies than this family’s ever seen or eaten in a long time! Mom’s so proud.

As for exercise? 2 days of 5k walks while wearing a raincoat (a friend of mine swears that it’s super effective) and a night of swimming 10 laps at Ace Water Spa. Not bad! I want to at least maintain a 2 day per week of walking. Maybe get a jump rope too since it gets boring after a while, even with new songs in my mp3! When it’s taking too long, I sprint the last few hundred steps.

So! What’s your new year’s resolution and how are you doing so far?

Farewell, Kaname~ Greetings 2012!

blogspot vampire knight layout - kaname

I had such a great Christmas dinner and thought to myself: “Vampire Knight’s so depressing these days, and it’s kinda affecting my mood and my blogging! I think I need to start the new year with a new series that’s bright, colorful, and cheery!”

Enter UtaPri! Short for Uta no Prince-sama!

I guess my blog’s layout is extremely shocking compared to my last one, but hey! It makes me smile looking at the silhouettes of Strish from their cover song “Maji Love 1000%”! Because their action for 1000% is the “ok” hand sign, and it’s a reminder that someway, somehow, everything will turn out ok!

…eh, maybe that line was taken from Card Captor Sakura’s “Everything will be alright”, but it’s very true~ So onwards 2012! Let’s hope I can get myself to blog more often this year than last year! Everyone cheer up! And have a great day ahead! Yes, yes!

The Meme Proposal

I don't know about you guys, but that proposal is certainly one for the books. It made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside~ ♥

Best wishes to Tim and Audrey~ I hope you both have a happy married life~ ♥

But it makes me wonder, what if Audrey said no? Did he have something prepared for that scenario as well?

梁文音: 還是朋友

I’m currently in Hong Kong with my sister and brother-in-law, and I’m disappointed that there’s been a ton of changes with the selection of anime and manga here. Five-something years ago, I can buy anime figures everywhere. Now, Sino Center looks so bare, with only a handful of anime stores in the whole building!

Oh well, at least I’m getting to update my Chinese mp3 list. Here’s one from 梁文音, “Still Friends After Breaking Up”. It’s so cute and it gives you a light-hearted, happy feeling. She’s saying that maybe one day, the guy she broke up will remember that silly girl… Well, I’m not qualified to translate this, so I’ll ask my sister later. :D
