Getting my butt off the chair

Who doesn't know there are many benefits to regular exercise? Besides the usual health related reasons, sometimes I go for a run when I need to clear my thoughts. The solution doesn't always come after a run, but I certainly feel better after sweating it out. I just found another reason to exercise. This may sound absurd to some, but I think it's not too bad a motivation either. Exercise when you are bored. Isn't it better than bingeing on snacks? So here I go again, my second exercise for the week :)

PS: As I was typing, my dad phoned me to stay away from outdoors due to the air pollution. But heck, I'm going ahead or else I'll go bonkers facing the walls, stuck in my work.

Dreaming

I wanna put on a pair of shoes with wings. With my shoes, I embark on my journey to the ends of the earth. Lifting my head, I soar higher into the sky, the cool wind ruffles my hair and brushes against my cheeks. My eyes were closed. I don't know how far I have gone. I hear birds chirping and I find myself in the midst of a flock of migrating birds. How beautiful it is to be flying up close and personal among the paradise birds.

I followed the birds and entered into an enchanted forest where the flowers and trees exist only in fairy-tales. The trees clap their hands as the flowers dance to the humming of the birds. Even the ants were doing line dance while carrying their food on their backs. I peek through the tall bushes and saw a family of hedgehogs dancing in circles. Grandpa and grandma were dancing too! I smile to myself.

Everything looks so happy and perfectly harmonious here. The rich colour of the forest simply blew my mind away. This must be the lost paradise of Kutalu. I had thought it was only a legend...

Itchy eyes, itchy ears

It''s kinda strange how the human eye wants to see what it wants to see. Others can tell you a thousand times otherwise but if you already have a pre-conceived idea or have made up your mind about something, nothing simply can change you.

Likewise, we often hear what we want to or like to hear, regardless of what others caution us. And when things turn sour, we regret and say 'if only'. No wonder ancient chinese says 忠言逆耳。

难道人真的都那么犯贱吗？

Talking to Greenpaws

I logged in facebook and I logged out of it. I opened my messenger, typed a word and I deleted it. Where is the best place to say what I feel like saying? Not revolutionary ideas or great discoveries, just thoughts or feelings for that moment, which may have no value to others at all :P I decided to just drop the thoughts here. Some will never get to see.

Thought at the moment: Why don't I feel hungry? Should I even bother to cook?

Lunch thoughts

More than 30 minutes to prepare, 5 minutes to wash up, 5 minutes to eat and minutes later, it is 'finished'. Kinda 'bo hua'... I wanna hire someone just to prepare healthy meals for me.
