What is busy ?

I really don't understand why people keep mentioning the word 'busy'?
I feel that a person who is 'busy' he/she should not even have time to think about busy at all.
Very often, "busy" is just a smoke screen, an excuse to be lazy?

So friends, please avoid using this word 'busy'.
This word is so harmful that it can hinder our potential success.
This word can stop us from pushing ourselves to our limits.

There are times when i do feel the pressure due to tight schedules.
Seriously I don't feel like a human anymore.
I don't feel stress, depressed, hurt anymore.
I guess is the training and events that I've been thru so far.

My version of 'superman' is not the one that is born in planet krypton.
It is one that endured thru many many hardships, trainings and setbacks.
It is one that focus in consistent training, overcoming injuries, strong preserverence, mentally and physically strong, able to push his body to the limits.

'Ironman' Triathlon
Swim – 1.9kms
Bike – 90.1kms
Run - 21.1kms

For now it is a dream
But it will not stay forever a dream
Because i'm working towards this dream

Somebody told me that a research claims that a human heart can beat up to a maximum heat beat per life time. So by training our body, you are actually shortening your lifespan by creating extra heat beats?

Interesting report..
Sets everyone thinking about whether to exercise or not..

In my opinion..

Do u know that everything around us involves risk?
Daily activities like walking up stairs, driving, eating etc..
There is a tendency that we may comehow get injured or even die from it ?
But why are we still doing it ?

It is good to be cautious
At the end of the day, life is great
And we want to live our life for as long as possible..

However, we only live once..
Do you want to live your life as a fat and ugly person for 100 years?
Or do you want to live your life strong and lean for 80 years?

*Of coz that is with the assumption that obesity doesn't lead to other critical illnesses such as stroke, heat attack, diabetes etc.. which it is impossible ..

So my conclusion is ..
-stop being a wuss
-start exercising
-live healthy

And if the report is really true..
I can only say there is a price for everything
You gain some and you lose some..
Learn to accept it..

I'm studying A Maths..! Been around 2 years since I touch Maths.. Erm .. Kind of forgot most of the stuff, so I'm picking them up slowly.. Recollecting my memories for Maths.. Well, its not tough either, just gotta start all over again.. Sunday is the dead line.. Coz I'm giving my first A maths tuition on sunday..

RMIT sent a letter to me.. Humm.. feels good to be accepted.. (After countless rejections from NTU & NUS over the past 2 years) Anyway, SIM is most likely the place I'll end up with.. I'll just work hard in university, doesn't matter what university it is la.. Afterall, I should be just happy that I'm given a chance to study in the course I like..

Well well, 30 july .. Kind of look forward to that day.. Enrolment day.. After 2 years in the army, half a year working as an insurance agent .. I start to miss something that I used to hate .. school.. Who knows I may find my special one in SIM ..?=) I'll just leave a question mark for this topic.. I guess the most important thing right now is pass my CFP ,take up ACCA and do well in uni.. End of entry!

Alright .. Finally cut my hair.. Due to bad response from friends.. Comments saying that my previous hair style is "untidy"..! Humm.. Well at least now i can feel my head lighter.. Is that suppose to mean that I can study better too..? =) Humm.. question to ponder..? Anyway , been mugging recently.. Studying don't seem to be that interesting in JC leh..? Maybe because now its my own "hard earned" money , I tend to have more interest in the course..? Humm.. Still trying to figure out the reason behind it..

Oh yar , I received my GST off set package.. hehe .. Not bad lar.. $200 .. Came at the right moment! Tomorrow will be going Tanglin golf course to have a game with my dad.. I'm going to sleep now.. End of entry..
