I had just went out to meet up with friends to see my body fat level. To my awe, I was shocked that I had 41mm of fat on my abdomen. The normal range was around 22mm. Goodness! i am so FAT! I thought that I am not that bad. It seems that what my mum said it's correct.
Anyway, let this be a wake up call. My friends said it's easier for me to slim down as I am bigger in size. My sense of confidence is very low and I feel that obesity has something to do with it.
Really glad that my friends are so supportive. Though i am the biggest size in my group, they felt that I have the most chance to win the championship since I have the looks of a bodybuilder! Oops!
Anyway, I have to start planning on my diet and exercise. It's a tough thing to do as I've always can't follow instructions due to ADHD. It's a chance for me to change!
MY MAIN AIM IS TO CUT DOWN 10 KG BY THE END OF MAY! (I believe that is attainable!)
The people who are behind me, I'm really appreciative of the support. I won't dissapoint you guys!
This is going to be a turning point of my life! |

Body for life competition
Thanks for the wonderful support, Leonard. Will not dissapoint you guys. Anyway, my main aim is to slim down around 10 kg within the next 12 weeks, not to become the next Mr Muscle, though this is an added bonus.
By the way, will be checking my weight and body fat % today. I have a feeling that I would be the person with the worst record among my group, after 2 years of dumping "trash" in my body. (So may be easier to win the prize!)
If you are a close friend of me, you will realise that it's very difficult to follow through plans or a set of formal rules for an extended period of time. I want this program to change my attitude and really discipline myself to complete a task. This is something the program that can train this aspect.
See the change in me for tthe next 12 weeks. See the NEW me in the next 3 months!

Basketball and the value of focus
I have a problem of focusing myself to complete things man. I indeed have a low self esteem and I am sure that many of my friends can agree on that.
Seriously, the basketball goal post looks like a rifle aim card that I was seeing in the days when I was in the army. I really need someone to guide me along in order to be focused on something. I always feared going to the range, knowing of the consequences if I focused wrongly. I misfired once during my recruits days, causing fear and hatred among my peers.
Anyway, I pick up the challenge again, this time round knowing that it's ok to create mistakes even if I focused wrongly. Basketball requires teamwork and absolute discipline. A good coach is one who understand his team players and guides him on aiming the goal.
My stationary 2 pointers was really bad. Either I hit off posts or the ball is too high. So my coach decided to let me try 3 pointer stationay shots since most of my 2 pointers are too high. Surprisingly, my 3 pointer stationary shots were about 70% accurate. I never thought that i would be able to get hold of basketball.
This had really boosted my confidence and encouraged me to develop the trait of focusing, something that I am in need of learning. Hopefully, this can be a starting point of better things to come.

After about 2 months, I realised that I had not went back to William HUng official website. Now going back there, I watched William hung's version of "She bangs" MTV. So hilarious that I almost fell down from my chairs and die laughing.  Still trembling with laughter even as I Typed my message.
I will present the Spanish version of "She Bangs" - Use it to get ready for Singapore Idol! This is a really long one though! (Warning: If you cannot stand sexy pictures, please do not see what is of below)
SHE BANGS (SPANISH)
By: Ricky Martin
La encontré sola en un bar
Sentí el embrujo de su mirar
Y fui cayendo en su trampa de amor
La mentira en su juego
Un sabor animal
Me ago la boca entre miel y sal
Su veneno se redado en mi ser
Y salvarme, no puedo
Chorus #3:
Y en un rincón, caimos juntos
En un rito de pasión
Y al tocar su piel, sentí el calor
Yo puse el deseo, ella puso el control
Chorus #1
She bangs, she bangs
Ay mi vida
She moves, she moves
Me enloquece
Cuando baila, camina, no puedo parar
Esa mujer me va a matar
Chorus #2
She bangs, she bangs
La dama que viva que es
She moves, she moves
Jugar conmigo es su placer
Porque ella es todas las mujeres en una mujer
Me atrapó, no pudo escapar
Entre tortura y sensualidad
Sus labios muerden cuando van a besar
Ella es fruta prohibida
¿Donde está? la quiero encontrar
Sueño con ella en ese mismo bar
Dejó su huella esa noche de amor
En mi cuerpo, en mi vida
Y me hundo más, sigo perdido
En un desierto irreal
Quiero calmar mi ser, de su boca beber
Sentirme su dueño tan solo una vez
(Repeat 1, 2, 3, 1, 2...)

English Version
talk to me tell me your name
you blow me  off like it's all the same
you lit a fuse and now i'm ticking away
like a bomb yeah baby 
talk to me tell me your sign
you're switchin' sides like a gemini 
you're playing games
and now you're hittin' my heart 
like a drum  yeah baby
well if lady luck
gets on my side
we're gonna rock this town alive
i'll let her rough me up 
'til she knocks me out
'cause she walks like she talks
and she talks like she walks 
chorus
she bangs she bangs 
oh baby when she moves she moves
i go crazy 'cause she
looks like a flower 
but she stings like a bee 
like every girl in history
she bangs she bangs
i'm wasted by the way she moves 
no one ever looked so fine
she reminds me
that a woman's got one thing on her mind
talk to me tell me the news 
you'll wear me out like a pair of shoes 
we'll dance all night  until the band goes home
then you're gone yeah baby
well if it looks like love
should be a crime
they better lock me up for live 
i'll do the time
with a smile on my face
thinkin' of her in her
leather and lace 
repeat chorus
man if lady luck
gets on my side
we're gonna rock this town alive
i'll let her rough me up
'till she knocks me out
'cause she walks like she talks
and she talks like she walks
repeat chorus

Though the local broadcast of AMI in Singapore is at 10p.m.  local time (10 hours later), I knew who the winner was.  Fantasia! Ok. I personally felt that Diana would be the winner, but Americans chose Fantasia to be their Idol. I wonder why?
Fantasia did not sing well for her first song. She tends to screech at high notes. I have to admit that overall performance, Fantasia is slightly gaininig an advantage than Diana. The fatal blow for Diana was the song "Don't Cry out Loud..........".  Judges said that she was shouting rather than singing, which I felt that it's not appropriate. I was wondering whether Americans were swayed by Simon's remarks.
Hope that Americans chose the right person to be their idol. Diana, do not give up. You could be the 2nd Clay Aiken. He is now more famous than Ruben. All the way to go. With your young age, I guess it's an advantage to develop into the next Mariah, Christina  or Whitney Houston. Don't be sad!

 I think this is a subject that many people had neglected. I was reading on many books and articles on the issues and found that I am having the traits of an Asperger's Patient.
Firstly, i do not talk to people directly on their face.  I felt threatened somehow when I see them eye to eye. Don't know why?
Secondly, I felt that the way i speak is like somebody having dementia, speaking slowly yet inaudible at times. 
Thirdly, I felt that there is a 'filtering' system. I can be turned on and become a workaholic  when there is something which I am very intrested in. My morale drops when I am told to do things that i don't like. tend to be selective at times. this applies to listening too.  We are often the 'misunderstood' community among all.
I tend to be a slow  learner and hence extra patience and encouragement is needed. But I am willing to learn and hopefully produce the right results.
Asperger Patients act like normal people, but they are seen to be anti-social at times. TRY TO BE UNDERSTANDING IF YOU HAVE FRIENDS LIKE THEM. THEY MAKE LOYAL FRIENDS and they tend to be approachable once you get to understand them better. 
But, there is a plus point for that. I realised that i have very good long term memory  and seemed to remember telephone  numbers without refering to the phone book. I can remember all my friends' telephone number by heart once I had tried calling them a few times by their telephone number
I am deeply in love with politics, world affairs,  analysis and  movies of different  languages and genre. Some said that i am a political freak, discussing social issues like an expert! Heehee! Now you know!
Please feel free to write to me at chuayunjia@hotmail.com if you are like me. Perhaps we can be pen-pals or friends in the near future.
Smiles............... 
P/S: I thank all my friends who have been so understanding and have been tolerant for my unusual attitude

oops! my buddy  is not here today for my swimming. Hehhe! Understandably, he's busy at the hospital  and preparing for the upcoming test! Ahhhhhhhh.........No one is going to be my 'victim' sob!!
Until, my 'saviour' appeared. Khai Wen is so nice and he agreed to become my 'partner' for the day. He is ever so-friendly, since the days in Army. Training went on smoothly except that there are some glitches here and there.
i suffered stage frights  easily, hence I am not that suitable for unexpected things that are happening on my way. hard for me to control these things. Nearly had a fall that caused me to hurt my back, but I am OK. I think that I am not a person to be easily understood! Thankfully, Khai wen was understanding enough. Many thanks brother  (if you get to see my blog)
Hopefully, my dear partner will be seeing me next wednesday. I am not coming down this sunday due to the National Achiever's Congress  that i would be attending this Sunday. Something not to be missed! Posted at 02:12 by fountain82
I had a call from Derek in the afternoon and realised that I need to help Mr Sim to move  his stores. Anyway, i am the logistics IC and hence no way for me to escape this.
When I started to move his stores, "alamak!" ("Oh no, trouble coming" - Singapore slang), so much dust. I got sensitive nose,  but luckily it's not as worse as I thought. i realise that he was clearing all his bags  from the stores. Wondering will they be used for SplashDown?
Within 40 minutes, I repacked and moved his stores from the badminton court to his office. Phew, I had a relief after i have moved all the stores.
