Let's hear some noise

Steriogram - Walkie Talkie Man

Premier jour...

... de l'ete!! En esperant que la meteo se mettre vraiment au beau fixe, ces derniers temps elle est plutot capricieuse.

... de la semaine. Beurk. Je deteste les lundis, mais bon en meme temps il faut bien commencer quelque part. La semaine commencerait les mardis, je les detesterais tout autant.

... mais surtout premier jour de decembre, ce qui veut dire que je peux commencer a deguster mon calendrier de l'avant (merci C#2!)!!

Je vais essayer de ne pas tout engloutir d'un coup :)

Good news week Part II

Last Friday I had a very important message on my voicemail: "Hullo, it's me.. just to tell you, my leave has been approved. Talk to you soon." That was my mum .. meaning .. she'll come Down Under!! Yay! A gazillion times yay!!!! So earlier this week we booked her flight tickets and she’ll land into Sydney on Jan 21 for 2 weeks and a bit. And more good news ... drumroll please... yesterday my leave has been approved too!!! Yeeee-ha!!! As you can imagine I’ve got great plans for us but I don’t want to give too much away just yet. I’ll tell you more when it’s all finalised.

The Audreys - Paradise City

One year ago...

.. I entered the realm of fitness! (Yup, that's a photo of my gym club)

Who would have thought?? I love sport but from the comfort of a couch or my bed.. erm don't get me wrong, I only mean watching TV while I'm in bed :) .. but after turning 30 I started thinking that I should do something about my (low) level of fitness + tone up a bit before gravity settles in .. and I did! .. and.. I even renewed my membership! Good on me.

Twice a week (on average) I get up at the crack of dawn to be at the gym at 6am, exercise for about an hour and a bit, then get ready for work. Not only I'm fitter but also happier and I feel less guilty when my eating habits are not so healthy :)

Now.. I'd be curious to know how many ks I ran, how many kgs I lifted, how many litres of sweat oozed out of my body.. actually no.. I don't want to know that.. yuck!
