new things

So here are the things that happened to me lately:

1) I got into an accident while using the treadmill. It's a real case of stupidity. I was trying to read a magazine while running. Yes I know it's sort of foolish to do, but I felt like a superwoman that time -- enriching my mind while sculpting my body. The magazine slipped in my hand, so I had to reach for it. Dumb me, I did not stop the machine so I got thrown on the floor. So I was right on the floor, with all the pretentious socialites in the gym laughing at and/or feeling sorry for me. But I had to get back there to restore my dignity. Dumb me again, I returned without realizing that the platform is still rolling, so I got thrown AGAIN when I came back. Somebody yelled "You have to press STOP!", I yelled back "I know!" But it was too late, all the dignity I got left simply vanished. Finally an instructor came to the rescue and asked if I was ok, I had to say "Yes, no worries. I'll just run again.". In my attempt to regain my dignity, I ran for another 20 minutes while still reading (I never learned my lesson), with my entire body aching and some bruises bleeding. When I came back to change clothes, I really felt loser so I called my bestfriend. Even she is laughing at my accident. I got bruises all over my body now. It's been more than a week but the wounds are still fresh. Damn.

2) I got into a Jazzdance class last night. Imagine having to rehearse for an hour just to finish a 30 second choreo. It was really fun. Nevermind the bruises, I'd feel more of a loser if I just rot myself in my room, looking back at all the stupidities I made in my life.

3) I made a Friendster testimonial for my childhood bestfriend. I am not really a testi freak, but I felt like doing it. She made me a testimonial, and I was tearjerky upon reading what she had to say. I realized that I am a good person afterall, modesty aside. haha!

4) I spent another night of photo session of Hong Kong, this time taking it from the other side of Victoria Harbor. Also my first to time to finally use a tripod. Feeling pro! haha!

5) Forgiving my ex who cheated on me. This time I really intend to do it wholeheartedly. Hate is a self poison that I had been overdosing myself with. Time to move on. Besides, I have more important things to deal with aside from dwelling in the past -- like finding my ikigai.

So there. I'll post photos soon.
