"Closing time...every new beginning comes from some other beginning’s end."
This song perfectly summed up what I think of today - the last day of 2011. Thank you each one of you that stopped by my humble blog. Hope you have a great new year celebration wherever you may be and see you in 2012. Cheers! :D
Despite the awkwardness of the lyrics, my K-Pop crazy sister told me that the translation is actually correct. You can't imagine my reaction when I finally saw the video above - it's just too damn hillarious!
Never in my heart and my mind that I look down on Bahasa Melayu but truth to be told, there are a lot of times where direct translations really sounds so hilarious. I guess that is why Malay love songs usually use deep and beautiful words; often with deep meanings. Some example: Dato' Siti Nurhaliza's Bukan Cinta Biasa, Krisdayanti's Mencintaimu and Tan Sri P.Ramlee's Tunggu Sekejap (this version was sung by his wife, Puan Sri Saloma); just to name a few.
So...yesterday, I went for a workout over at the gym. Since I haven't weight myself for quite sometime, I decided to check out how heavy I am these days. The number that I received was...82KG. O MAI GAS, SO HEAVY. :o
My weight reminded me of this song.
That being said, I admit that I slacked a lot in 2011 in terms of health as I failed to balance between work (you can't burn midnight oil without snacks! xD) and fitness despite participating in many runs. Obviously, nothing going to change when it comes to work; in fact, am going to keep on pushing for the win - go forth! - but I believe I definitely can do something about my fitness next year.
Hence, one of my resolutions for 2012 is shed couple of kilos or at least maintain it to be under 80kg. I would also like to achieve better time in my runs next year, hence I hope to set new PB for my 10K and 12K. At the same time, will I move on to further distance in 2012? Well...nah, I don't think so. I would like my body to be lighter before I go further - for the sake of my knees and joints.
