Holiday? New Project which is 50 - 50.

Sigh, I checked my office web mail last night and received news that I am assigned to a project NEAR Petronas Tower. I emailed the project manager that I will be on my annual leave from 10th of April till 15th of April 2009. I spoke to him this morning and he said he has forwarded my request to the appropriate person. He can't really do much about it but explained to me the current situation. If person 'A' that is currently in the project can be extended till I am back(16th of April), then I'll be in the project. IF NOT, they will find someone else to replace my position, meaning I will not be in the project. I just hope my annual leave is taken into consideration.

If I'm in the project, it will be in KL. I have to take public transportation to work for a month ++. Honestly, I rather take public transport (LRT - Putra, Star or Monorail) because of the bloody jam. Its more tiring to actually DRIVE to work and I don't want to experience that. But anyway, that is all for work. Please pray that I am able to proceed with my annual leaves...please God...

Me and my friends met up last Saturday to train 17KM slow run but we only ran about 6KM and walked back to Bkt Aman car park. Not really an excuse but I was tired. I got home from work on Friday at 10PM. By the time I had my shower and dinner, it was close to 10.40 ~ 10.45pm. I ate quite alot as I was hungry and I thought, more rice as I'm running the next day. I ended up sleeping at 12am. But heck I woke up around 4am....finally got my ass up around 4.10am and cooked my meal.

Photobucket
Seasoned the chicken breast fillet. 2 Eggs + 1 slice of cheese

Photobucket
My pre run meal. Shiok? 4.20am man...wtf


Another friend was feeling unwell. She was far behind at times(Not that she is slow) and walking at times when usually she will run at a steady pace. I knew something was wrong. So after she herself said she couldn't run anymore, we all decided to walk back together. Its not like it was wasted....nothing is wasted. We ran, catch up with one another and had breakfast together = FUN. We rested and ate nasi lemak at the nearby stalls. Yes, NASI LEMAK! =P

FOOD!
After the run, I went to my gf's place rested for about 2 hours before going out. As I was hungry, we decided to grab lunch at Secret Recipe! They have this weekly promotion and for last week, it was RM9.90 for Spaghetti Bolognese (chicken).

Updates Updates :) Finally.

w00t...finally got some time to update my blog. Today is the last day of being in this current project. Its a short period...roughly 1 month. Ah well, work is work. I guess consultants(programmers) are like this. My biceps are aching like mad today. I love that feeling...not only does it make me feel as though I worked my ass off during workout but it shows that I've manage to stimulate my muscles for growth(I hope)?...I am finally doing 10KG bicep curls. I'm still wondering if I'm doing it right.

I'm just holding my dumbbells and curling with my biceps. I DON'T grip hard but just nice enough to support the dumbbell. Is this right? Below is my workout log for yesterday's workout.

It has been so long since I last went to St. Francis Xavier's Church(Not from X-Men la bonkers!). The church is undergoing some major renovation...will be completed soon though. Its on schedule :) Anyway, Sunday service was done at the basement of the church.

My gf also made onde onde over the weekend..pretty awesome. Do you know what is onde onde? Onde-onde is a type of traditional snack (kuih-muih) for Malays. The traditional onde-onde is green in colour with gula melaka filling. But instead of using pandan leaves, my gf used pumpkin instead.
