Random update

Yesterday morning, i woke up at 8am. There's an informal meeting at the roof top. The place there is WOOT! Nice scenery etc etc

While enjoying snacks and coffee, we will chat about the company's direction.

So don't think informal is not good, it can be constructive.

The group.

And me.

I had 1 intense training session just now. I just reduce my rest time to less than 60sec and i felt like puking after my training session. Manage to take pictures before i lie on my bed and slack till i recover. I even had to abandon my HIIT after the resistance workout.

Seated row: beginning position

Seated row: at peak of contraction.

The pics above are for 1 of my client. :D

And the nacaciist (whatever spelling la) Kevin.
Stupid pose at sub 10 degree Celsius.

Basically, i have become even smaller than what i'm in Singapore. I guess i need less than a month to regain my size and another few months to get bigger. Till then..

oh yes, ignore the un-uniform colour tone of my body. I had certain parts of body in contact with the group when i'm doing my SMR.

blogging from 3rd prize 1214

Hey, there's internet down here at 3rd prize 1214. Anyway, here's some random update.


You may know how wrong posture can screw your life. I told him about it and he will go about my habit is worse than his and i will suffer more. (well, i do suffer down here but...)

He doesn't listen to my advice, so i will save my breath by not talking to him about this.
This girl, can sleep anywhere. FYI, we are sitting on a stool and the bus is very unstable!
My pre-lunch when i have the chance.
My main course for lunch.

If only i can eat this everyday.... The food in China has a lot of salt, a lot of oil & a lot of MSG!! EEUWWWW

Something else.

1) YJ dropped his wallet on the bus the other day. Being the careful kev, i always alight the last and check for belongings. Well, i found his wallet. I should have play a while more and see the panic look on his face. Being the nice and bo chup kev, i returned his wallet the moment we alighted.

2) If you think i am backstabbing by bitching on my blog, wait till you know what he did to me. You will be with me cursing him instead. But being the bo chup kev, i don't see how he can screw my life.

3) 1 of my greatest fear is here again - F*ING STATIC ENERGY
I got it through my jeans through that F*ing chair. Imagine the shock i receive!
I can remember the shock on Sherman's face when i "shocked" him 3 times when i tapped him! (in year 2) ahhaha


4) Nothing much, but none of the 4D numbers i bought came out last night. I'm still a poor kev. :(

5) I will be free to start planning for my clients after today. Coz my interim report is due today! & i will also start on my final report!! I don't wanna do it last minute like this time!!

R.I.P.

I am not Kevin Chia. I am YJ! Blogging for him.

It was this Sunday morning when the resort was invaded by some barbarians. Kevin was drafted into the army because of his experience.

He took this picture before going into the battlefield. I think he is the most un-garang solder i have even seen trying to act garang. Look at his F... face.

10 seconds after taking the picture, his mum called him from Singapore. Kevin was still trying to act cheerful and asked his mum to buy 4D for him.

These are the number he's buying.
3001, 2216 & 1214.

Please let him strike 1st, 2nd & 3rd prize with these 3 numbers.


I went to hide in the room in my dirty blanket.

note how clean kev's bedsheet is

Aftering finishing 1 can of my potato chip, there's no more gunshot. I can hear our army cheering. I ran out....


& Kevin is lying on the ground, not moving. sigh.



Born 1st Prize 3001
Passed away 2nd Prize 2216.

May his soul rest in peace with 3rd Prize 1214.

Sicko!

It's a movie. I shed a bit of tears when i'm watching it. It sounds familiar.

Going colleage (education), need insurance and get housing. So, you are in debt so that you have to work. You cannot stop working till you are... errr... 85 years old?

Some quotes from the movie, so they are not my words. dont sue me.

Tony Benn: Keeping people hopeless and pessimistic - see I think there are two ways in which people are controlled - first of all frighten people and secondly demoralize them.
Tony Benn: An educated, healthy and confident nation is harder to govern.
(rings a bell?)

------------------------------------------------------------------

So these are the thoughts on my mind right now.

1) i must thanks the government that my mother is not a maid in another country right now.

2) 2% raise in GST to help the poor. but how? i see so many old people collecting cans in the street in Singapore leh. (maybe i am not informed la)

3) Shortly after GST increase, oh mine. Their pay increase. (i don't know. people says 1. not me)

4) & then ERP - longer and more places and more expensive. (ahhh, i read this myself one! am i smart?)

If you watched the movie, you know the government of France may be afraid of its people. Well, unlike US, the citizens are afraid of the government. (rings another bell?)

-----------------------------------------------------

I'm just thinking if i am able to afford for health care in Singapore. My mum got some problem with her health few years ago, wah lau eh, we paid a lot of money worrrr.... are we able to get free healthcare any time soon? it's impossible because i think our world class government opts for non welfare state or something.

well, i am a nub in politics but i am becoming more interested. just go to more online news or blogs and find out respective views and come up with your own views. if you truly care about what country you live in. The newspaper that we read in Singapore can be a bit too... bias?


What i have noticed is quite different from what i learn from Singapore history. but oh well, people will start to notice coz there's internet.


Have you notice that foreigners in Singapore are sometimes... better off than its citizens?

i'm just thinking how many ICT i need to go, scarificing my business/work/career to serve for that 2 weeks. I dont mind really. but you see, what's happening to my fellow NSman.

Got this from a certain forum in Singapore.
"I was selected for the job. But my ICT heng heng start on my first week of job. I ask the company to help me defer, then, another 'FT' replaced me at the job. SIGH"

I say we are more educated now!
We are healthier because we paid for health care!
Let's get more confidence. Ask for what you want right? Keep whining also no use.

I WANT TO GO BACK HOME NOW!! MUAHHAHAHAH

just last quote from a review of the movie

I found this documentary to be particularly eye opening being from the Uk and now Canada where we have national healthcare. If one thing stood out to me more than anything it was Michael Moore's interview with an old British politician, I don't recall his name but he said something that really interested me, he said that a healthy, educated, confident people are harder to control (or words very close to that effect) and the US love nothing more than to keep their people dumb, sick and in fear.

i wanna go back to singkapor.
sillypore
stinkapor.

Jia lat liao

My visa has expired yesterday!! P's lagi worse - expired last week. We are going to the city tomorrow to sort things out!

Yippie. I still have the discipline. Supposed to have my workout at 430pm today, but i'm chatting with client. Yet, i still go train at around 6pm (it's totally dark then) and when it's cold. Though it's sub 10 degree Celsius, i'm wearing only a short sleeve and shorts after warming up.

The girls and i changed our own bed sheets today again. We will change it at least once fortnightly.

My bed is smelling fresh and the sheet is very white. (Chao ji bai)
Whereas someone is there scratching his foot, using his feet to rub away dust/dirt on his bedsheet beside me. Well, he hasnt change in the last 4-6 weeks already. Weeks before i go Guang Zhou. Imagine that.

I took this pic days ago! It's not chocolate stain, but i wonder what it is. LOL
I am 1 experienced farter. I don't think he is. Maybe his poo poo came out with fart? Well, i never name people down here hor. Stop saying i keep blogging about the same person.

Applying for Boro's job

The application

The reply

181107

I sent my boss an email that pissed YJ off a lot. heh

Anyway, he bought this 'sucker' or 'dryer' long ago. He unwrapped it and left it somewhere in the room. BUT! He never remove that alu wrapper inside the container. WTF.

I took the picture as evidence and post it here. LOL



This small kid is cute. Having a hot bath tub in this cold weather will feel shiok! But he's like leonard, very very naughty!! Don't play with him..

It's real cold these 2 days. Average afternoon temperature is 14degree Celsius. I am ok with the temperature actually. But it's the freak wind that make me shiver!!!

I took a walk outside my room just now, no wind, not cold even at 11 degree Celsius. I'm in trouble... confirm cannot 'tahan' the weather in Singapore when i go back!

heh
out

A typical day of my work life

Heya all. I am not working those kind of office job. I'm not looking for such job when i'm back either. My PT schedule is on good track. Got enough clients to live comfortably for a while. :D
So if you are looking for PT with me, please contact me asap. k-fitness@hotmail.com or kevin-chia@hotmail.com

Anyway, here's a short write up of my work life.
There are a lot of missing pics because i forget to take pic while working!

Team building program

Navigation exercise.

1 group discussing.
We have to watch out for "land mines"!

The racecourse
Manager Liang teaching them the operation of the bike

The paintball battlefield.

To become a spiderman....
My ride during work.

After setting up the ropes and equipments for rope repelling.... (no pic here)

We had a short coffee break.

I'm testing if the ropes are ok. (Checking out the height first)

Down i go...

The clients' time.

Towards the end of the day, i will jump into the water directly from the view of the pic above.

Then some of the clients will start to follow me.
Wearing only their undies. hahah

Wash up
Lunch
A power nap!

Some meetings and i am allowed to slack for the day. Or rather, work on my reports and ideas on improving the resort.

ps: his rubbish bag is still in the room. i think it has been there for 4-5 days now...
lazy...

thought and thought and thought

Read this only if you are interested to know more about my inner self. My thoughts at my life at this point in life.

For my sec school friend - caesar, hanwei, alan, zhang wei, gabriel etc. read last 2-3 points.

For people who want to own a car, read (1)

For Yong Jun, read (4)

For other who are not interested, read at the the bold part at the end of the post. that's my exact thought at this moment - ANGRY!

1) It used to cost like 1.2k to own a private transport in the beginning of this year. With the rising cost, i think it will hit 2k by the end of 2008. The wish of owning a private transport, can say byebye already.

2) Rich are getting richer, poor are getting poorer. It's still the same since nong nong before you were born. The ones in the middle leh? They are not here and not there. Not rich enough to live comfortably, not poor enough to live with subsidies also. I call this the SWAY group. But given a choice, i rather be middle class than poor class.
"Jia jia you beng nan nian de jin"
Each class will have their own problems. So, don't compare and see who is worse. Just think of way to have the best.

3) The power of marketing, or rather, the foolishness of people
How often can there be "Get rich by investing in shares", "Gain performance, decrease FC by installing this $100 gadget" or "Score straight As by attending this 3-day camp".
Saw these in ST forum and HWZ forum.
If you can get rich by investing shares, then who need to lose the money then? Yes i agree that you can strike it rich, but you have to be sharp, smart and gotta have luck sometimes.
If installing that $100 gadget can do what it claims, why won't the car manufacturers install it in the first place?
If attending a 3-day camp can let you score straight As, there's no need for school anymore.

4) Sucky people....
If you are on the losing end of debating with me, just say "Why are you, a 24 year old, still taking diploma".
I say this is the worst point you can bring it up. This is just personal attacking, isn't it?
My reply "At least i never give up and do self damage."
Since you are 20 this year, you are only 2 years ahead of me after deducting NS. Let's see who is more successful when you are my age. Anything can happen. You may meet someone who will make you successful. Or you may be struggling to find a $1.2kSGD/month job when you are me. At least... i have my short term plans and long term goal.

5) People who can never move on.
I never move on from my first and last relationship. It is because we never have the chance to know what happen. At least, after meeting her after 4 years apart, we met up. We clarified. That's nice. Couples who never make it together should be good friends at least. I move on. You too.
Happy ending to both of us. :D
I'm just thinking, why would my gf's ex, when they have gfs already, still may have thoughts on getting her back. Then what's their current gf? subs?

6) Are you able to trust the media or any research of any kind?
I certainly don't think so. Research can be carried out by organisation of certain interest and come up with result that will help them. Go and watch "Thank you for smoking". Hope you can learn something from the movie.
Is there something wrong with the earth that peasants like me want to know? I definitely want to know more, but i know there are so many things that the top agencies are keeping it a secret. "It's always to the best interest of us that we don't know"
I say "Fuck it". I'm going to be on this earth for another 50 years, plus minus a bit. Who cares what happen after i die.
If people like me who give up seats to old people can say this, what do you think selfish people will think? It's always to the benefits and never to the peasants.

7) Charities
I used to donate. Be it my spare change, my winnings or my wage. I don't anymore. Just see how our money is spent and you will feel the same with me. If you want to help certain people, give the money to them directly. No point having these "middleman" anymore. They need to live. Where do they get their money? From your donations of course. If we can take away middleman in so many sales, why can't we take out the middleman for donations to the needy. Of course, without the middleman, the needy will not be known. But let's just keep the middleman's organisation as lean as possible so that 90+% of our donations are used by the needy directly ok?


8) On how my life will be when i'm back to Singapore.
I will work as a PT for a while definitely. Increase my capital, network and help people when my passion has not turn to greed yet.

9) There are people who will change your life after meeting. I think i met quite a few groups of people. All of them shape my life differently. But i'm really glad how my life is right now. Most of the things are in place. Just 1 simple comment from worm like "eh, wanna join this course?" can make such a big impact. heh
Lyn also la. You-know-what-changes-you-make-to-me.
From friend to "dislike".
From my secondary school friend. Their ideas of life change me. But i'm paiseh to say that i don't like to party that much. If not i will try to be thick skin and ask you all to invite me after losing contact for so long.

10) The last thing i want to blog about today. My friends at secondary school.
Hanwei, Caesar, Alan, Paul.
It's nice to see you guys still stick together.
My results is usually better than them during secondary school. but so what?
They may seem rebellious at times because they don't conform to society norms. But i say they are men with their own ideas. I respect them for this!
Oh man, don't get me wrong. Let me try to type again.

I learnt a few things from you guys from what i know about you all currently.

Conforming to norms is.. let me try
grow up. get a degree. find a job. get laid. get married. kids.
the cycle goes on...

they don't by..... adding spice to their lives.
i don't by.... not finding a job. ahhaha

I hope to meet you people again. But i'm afraid of meeting you all too. What kind of topic will we be on? Esp Caesar, seems so different after coming back from Australia. So paiseh meeting you.


11) Ok, i think this is the last.
Believe in things that science cannot explain.

I see how strangers know about my current life by having god-or-whoever possessed them.
I see how 1 of my sec school friend performed miracles.
I see how my prayers got answered.
I see how luck can determined my life. (Yes, i can be damm pan tang sometimes)

But luck is luck. It's me (human) who determine my own path.

So people. Believe in yourself. Your path should be determined by you yourself. Don't get simple things like "getting in simi course" get decided by parents or by peer pressure.

All of us will know our own paths at 1 point of our live. I knew my after i got into poly. That's why i never regret coming poly.
Some know when they are in sec school. (my sec school friend lor, TMD, how i wish they can advise me that time also)
Some... they never know.. i know some people are still slacking when they are older than me. :x

a few more things about YJ.
I ke lian you for your life. Really. I know you cannot choose your family. But don't treat your brother as enemy.
My siblings and i always fight when we are younger. When we got sick of it and we actually start to love and treasure one another now.
But i know there are families who never stop fighting.

Stop giving up in life already la. If you dont wanna be fat, do something about it rather than surviving on snacks in china. i know you said you are ok being fat, but deep in everyone's hearts. who wanna be fat if given a choice.

you are not who you are because of no choice. you are who you are because of the choices that you make!

last but not least.
the fucking rubbish in the room.

look at my bin, i cleared it when it's 3/4 full. i walked 2 minutes to the dump and throw away.
you? tie and leave it in the room.
if you are able to lie on your bed the whole day, except for lunch and dinner downstair, why can't you spare 5 minute to throw the rubbish? this is what i call fucking lazy.
"wait till i shun bian walk to the dump"
fuck la, the dump is at the corner of the resort where you never need to walk there 1, when will you throw????
people, don't say i selfish and ask why i dont help him to throw when i need to throw mine.
stay with him for 2 months and tell me how you feel.

You are what you eat

Please visit my new website for all my updated articles. Thank you!

Hello everyone.

I was chatting with one of my client just now when he said "My ex pt tells me to eat, eat & eat to get big".
I must say that if you eat a lot (dirty food), you won't definitely look how you desired.

You are what you eat.
How true this phrase it.

I will cover a few that are typical in Singapore.

Please note that i will not be including detailed training & diet in this article. I won't be speculating if they use steroid too. Please do note that it's possible to achieve without any steroid.

Workout Quality & Volume
Elites - Professional.
Decent - Not good enough to go top, but not bad enough to achieve what most want.
Lousy - probably some bicep curls or a 40minute jog 1-3 times weekly.

Ladies

Skinny!

Achieve this body by eating an apple a day. Just pray that you won't fall before reaching this stage. (Death in extreme circumstances). This group of people may or may not exercise.

A case of serious malnutrition probably. LOL

Skinny but flabby.
Credit to vicvic from HWZ for the pic.

A typical lady's body walking down Orchard Road. They may look skinny or lean with clothings, but there will be a few flabby areas. Mainly tummy, arms, thighs.

Lousy or no workout.

Typical 3 meals a day with low quality calories.
Do add in supper or snacks during appropriate time. :D

Very lean!

This body is very lean. She has quite a bit of muscle there. Training wise, it has to be between decent and elites. Very clean diet, at least 90% quality calories. My clients' opinions think this lady has too little body fat though.

What most desired

It's just what most my female clients tell me anyway. They want to look "non flabby" and "not bulky". This body is achievable with decent training (achievable with me) and smart eating. By smart eating, i will say it's 5-6 small meals with good quality calories. You are allowed to eat "cheat meal" probably once or twice a week.

If you notice, this body is very close to "lean and toned". Just eat more than "lean and toned".

Fat

I won't be putting any pic down here. From skinny but flabby, add on a few years of age, you will probably look like "fat" now. Very common for girls who started working in the office upon graduation.

Guys

Skinny!

Just another case of malnutrition.

"Small & lean"

This body is not small in reality. It's probably close to 70kg with 8-12% body fat. This body is achievable with decent training and smart eating.

The real "small and lean"Credit to vicvic from HWZ for the pic.

Bruce Lee will be the best example of being small and lean.

Dirty bulk

I call this kind of body "dirty bulk". In reality, "dirty bulk" is much bigger. Probably more muscle at least 18-20+% BF.

If one were to train (lousy to decent) and do not care what he eats, this is the kind of body you will get. You can look big with shirt on, just need to live with the tummy that you have.

This is what i really meant by just "eat, eat & eat." If you want better example, just go to a gym and see people who train like a "pro" to you. They look big, but they have a tummy, bodyfat at least 20%. (Not applicable to people who train for strength)

Brad Pitt in "Troy"

This body is nice! I heard somewhere that this body is around 190 pounds. That's about 90kg. This is achievable with decent to elites training with lots of clean food. (More than "small & lean" above)

Bodybuilder

This bodybuilder's body. It's the hardest to get. Eating a lot of clean & quality food is a must. (More than BP in Troy) Knowledge, passion & discipline are just 3 of the many criteria needed.

Fat (Same as ladies)

I won't be putting any pic down here. From skinny but flabby, add on a few years of age, you will probably look like "fat" now. Very common for guys who started working in the office upon graduation.

I think i have covered most of the types of body that is more typical to newbies. Hope this article helps.


No prize for guess who this is.

I'm in China mah. It's good that i can remain relatively lean.
= )

I just want to talk about dirty bulk with my client. Little did i realized that i add a few more pics. I do hope the pictures are as close as to what i'm referring to though.

Please leave any comment if you have.
Or give me a link of a picture that you wish me to talk a little on.

I cleaned the toilet!!!!

I cannot take it already. It's called BTH - buey ta han!
Cleaned toilet halfway then i remember to take pic as evidence!

After first rinse, the dirt just won't go away.

The end result!

Clean floor!

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Just a few days ago, there's a "puddle" of urine in front of the toilet bowl - on the floor. I just rinse with water lor. Asked YJ if he aimed properly. He said "If you think it's me, then me lor"

-_-"

I'm not sure also. But with my positioning when i pee, it's impossible for me to hit that spot.
heh, nevermind. I clean lor. Fuck

--------------------------------------------------------------
If you are thinking why am i so free to blog. Blogging just take minutes with this kind of post. Cannot ah?

Article takes some time to think, organise and type.
Blogging about a trip is hard - needs lot of pic.

This kind? 2 minutes la.

2nd day without electricity

But heng there's good sun again.

Sunning our stAff
