i've found out why i've been failing my situps!!!!!!!
i just went to the gym and ran the treadmill, cycled, did the weights and such.
and i decided to do some situps, just to like, test it out.
so i got my sister to hold my feet down for me.
i was doing my situps and had lots of trouble on my 17th situp when our conversation took place.
carol: cheh, you must remember to BREATHE when you do situps!
me: huh? what do you mean breathe? i AM breathing!
carol: nono you're not! you're turning whiter and whiter so i thought i'd better remind you.
me: oh.
carol: yeah, like exhale when you get up and inhale when you get back down.
me: OH. you mean i really wasn't breathing?
carol: you mean you didn't know??
i've been enlightened. i can now pass my situps without having to cheat.
i hope!
went to the botanical gardens for my little cousin's birthday party today in the afternoon.
my cousin's name is Tania and she's very cute!
and according to my aunts and uncles, she looked like me when i was a baby.
no i am not trying to say that i am cute but SHE IS DAMN CUTE!!
unfortch my aunt's going back to Vietnam soon so Tania and her equally adorable brother Darren are going back. on monday i think.
all my younger cousins went to feed the black swans, leaving the adults sitting around the picnic area talking.
but they ended up feeding the pigeons instead i think.
oh and there was one white pigeon that could have passed itself off for a dove that i particularly liked. and there was also one piebald pigeon that i really didn't like 'cause it looked so retarded.
anyway. after chasing some pigeons around (they forgot to fly), i went off with the older cousins to waffletown for some waffles and had a nice catch-up!
lunch tomorrow's at my grandma's place with popiah since my aunt and her family are leaving for Vietnam on monday.
Tian and Carol have decided to use the gym AND swim tomorrow after lunch.
i said i'd join them initially, but after my gymming today, i might just be too exhausted to visit the gym again anytime this week.
stuff i gotta do tomorrow:
-e4 essay outline
-phy geog hydro tutorial 12
-econs tys mcq 17.2?
-econs tutorial 4 essay Q2?
