First, Whack only! Then, Think. …A postmortem analysis of my actions

Oh Cities…Sickening Cities, a big prison.

Living in a city can be good. You can get all sorts of things you need within a drive of 10-15 minutes. You get your favorite brand of ice cream in the near by kiosk or store. Or, you may be driving out a little out of your way to dine in the best restaurant for the particular food that you were craving for. Or, you may too lazy to get out, you can simply have your food delivered to your doorstep with just a phone call.  It is even easier for you to get any of your red tapes or applications for whatever purposes done in a matter of days, because the headquarters are near your home.

On the flip side, it is actually a big prison, a prison that we do not know of its existence. If you realize, the only entertainment that you can get out of a city is, watching movies, shopping, gym, smoking or wat? Maybe sex. Aside from that, pretty much to it. Given that amount of choices, we will realize that we will get sick of it eventually, and so what is the solution that we came up for that? More movies...and Shoppings.

Recently, i went to Singapore for a short trip to visit my girlfriend and recharge my battery. I had been working quite hard for my projects. Guess what? When i came back, i felt even more drained out. The city of Singapore is pretty much loaded with Shopping centers and FnB outlets, just i mentioned earlier: When the people are bored with shopping, more variety of shops will sprout out to keep the people entertained.

Like it or not, this will eventually drive people to seek adventure in other forms such as adultery, prostitution or others to satisfy their craving. Or, some might even experience mental breakdown... or try to drown it by getting drunk every weekend...or even splashing their hard-earned cash on casino ....

My solution to that is to travel and do it as often as possible, as well as indulging in different kind of adventurous sports. What am i doing now, will be funding all my expenses for all the future traveling that will be done in the next months onwards. As this will be the only thing that drives me towards achieving my goals.

My Cheap-Skate diet plan

When I was back for 2 weeks ago, and i found out a least surprise fact about myself: I got FATTER! Well, after months of indulging or rather chewing those fattening food from my dear university dinning hall. I guess it is about time for me to lose weight. One of the most significant de-improvement or damage done by such unhealthy diet is that, i can barely sprint more than 3 minutes. On top of that, i jog as slow as an old man. I notice this when i was trying to run the usual jogging track i made years ago, and i was panting for air before i could complete it.

The worst has yet to come, I was planning to lose my fats, those extra love handlers via going to gym and working out again. Turns out that, a gym membership can cost me an arm and leg. To obtain an affordable gym membership will spell out a long-term contract with the gym, a minimum of 2 years to have a membership as low as 100 ringgit per month. As for those 3 months commitment, it costs up to 200+ ringgit per month. Hell no, I am paying such expensive price for the gym...

Thus, i came up with a poor-man routine that can help me lose fat in a short period of time, approximately 1 and half to 2 months. Low and Behold, I shall reveal it to you!

Morning:

Jog for the usual Track - approximately 1km jog.

Or, trail running at Bukit Gasing.

Afternoon til night:

Insanity Workout - Zero equipment needed.

Total time needed in a day: 2 hours

Total Cost: RM 0.

Awesome huh? In additional to that, i will be consuming a high protein and fat diet, to accelerate my fat loss process. I shall be posting up my progression pictures after tomorrow. For now, I am still drinking 7-eleven Sloppy.

Laziness, Stress and Sugar-addiction.

Whoah, I found out something 2 days ago. I am addicted to soft drinks with aspartame, and I want to put all the blames towards my university dinning hall. They serve soft drink as beverages to all the people eat in the dinning hall, and it kinda encouraged me to drink alot of "Coke Light", "Diet Coke" or even "Pepsi Max". Most of the time, I will try to take a glass of water and soft drink, turns out that i  rather drink more soft drinks than the plain simple Sky juice. When i finish my glass of soft drink, i barely manage to finish a quarter of my plain water.

Once again, as for now, i am running as much as 3 projects simultaneously. I have as many as 5-7 articles , and building up 2 sites all at the same time. I really do hope these two sites can spread their wings...and fly! Like i have said, i failed enough not to take actions for the past 2-3 years. If this time it goes well, i shall reward myself a trip to an island in Malaysia as it is quite relevant to my next big project which to be launched as soon as 4-5 months time. A massage, spa or some adventure trips may be good for me :)

The truth is that, i really want to go a diving trip. The total cost for such trip would be 1700, excluding those personal expenses. Well, i guess i have to squeeze out somewhere around 700 usd by next month or two :) I hope this can be done :) After all, i would not like to go to Singapore as it seems to be a very sickening city to me, as it looks like a concrete jungle.

As for my diet, it has been ruined to the maximum. I can do nothing to fix as for today. Hopefully, tomorrow i can restart everything all over again :) I will be elaborating my workout plan in the next post. I ate so much of carbohydrate that i feel like i just commit a big suicide with sugar itself. Well, that's all for now.

Wisdom Extraction and Article Writing

Today, my girlfriend went for a wisdom teeth extraction. She told it was painful at all as it takes only 1 hour to get her tooth out. I would love to talk about wisdom teeth extraction with her as i am going to get mine extracted sometime in next month. I was trying to get her talk about the process....

Instead, she turned the topic towards how  she sexy she was when she put on her newly bought skirt. The only reason is that she bought the skirt for 2 Singapore dollars. How she got it? I have no idea, probably from her friends or so. Oh well, whatever it was, today is the first day of my summer class. There isn't anything special as my class has only 4 students including me. Pathetic huh? Oh well, most of the Malaysian take the A-level route because they just simple love to follow the crowd. Nothing much to complain aside from being really scare about wisdom teeth extraction.

Oh well, beyond this part, the rest will be venting or ranting from me. The reason why i am so down is because, it is really hard to compete in the article writing industry. Everyone undercuts everyone else, and some of the employers or hirer are just purely stupid, in term of how they approach us.  I have this hirer provide me vague details on the scope of work and expect me to produce what he is thinking in his mind. I mean, really, I am no mind reader nor have any ability to know what you are required for an article.

On the other hand, those wickedfire.com members will always try to hunt for review copies for free articles. Even i know they are some sort of cheapskates, i have to write for them as i need business from the others. Sigh, i guess that how's life works for an article writer.

I guess that all i needed to rant out for now, except the fact that i have no idea or confident on my upcoming projects. It may due to the lack of research..oh well.. let's hope for the best.

The start of the Dawn

Well, this blog has been dead for a long long time. I think it is time to restart it

As an ambitious dude, i always craved to earn a salary during my college years. I just talked to a friend of mine, who does internet marketing. The funny thing was that both of us started in the same time, which was back in 2009 May. Back then, he was earning only few hundred a month, now?

15 000 usd

Shocking? i don't think so, he really puts his heart and mind in doing it. When he was launching BookmarkWiz, i was his main affiliate for the pre-launch. Until the day i started my college on August 2010, I backed out. The reason was simply i was too busy adjusting myself to the college life. I could not even manage my spin article business, i was way way way too busy.

In a way, i am really regretful over my actions. Who else i got to blame? Myself? the truth, yes, it is myself. Previously, i failed a few projects largely due to the fact i was too scare to do anything. It was a failure to not doing anything at all, that's really pathetic huh?

This actually lead to the whole purpose of my return to blogging. I am hoping to learn how to keep myself on track and force myself to do things that i have set out to do so.
