My mid year break is here and I have two weeks off. YAYAYYAAYAY.

100m - Got first at the heats, 5th at the semifinals. Didn’t get into the finals. Good enough though :)
My school’s track & field team did so well!
Congratulations to the beast Shu cean for getting first at her discus!!!
This week will be eventful and my red cheeks and tan legs will get even redder and tanner. yayyy
Ah. The saying “The first is always the hardest” is extremely true. The first time I did Plyometric Cardio Circuit, which was the first (or second, including Fit Test) day of Insanity, I absolutely died at the warmup and even had to take multiple breaks during the warmup. The second time I did it, which was yesterday, I was already much stronger & seldom had breaks out of exhaustion throughout the whole workout. I feel much better, much faster, much more agile & stronger and it’s only been the first week!
AIGHT. NO MORE PROCRASTINATION, I’m going to do Cardio Power & Resistance now :)

Had a great run/walk today. Great great great run. Went at 5 minutes per kilometer, which by far is pretty fast to me! :) I had a great day at school too! :) Unfortunately though, I ate some unhealthy food today because I had no other choice But it’s alright. It’s allll good. My fridge/pantry’s running out of healthy food!! No more fruits omfg. Besides bananas though! D: MUST. GO. GROCERY. SHOPPING. Oh, and my class is having a tiny party tomorrow, which is gonna be filled with unhealthy junk. I’ll just have a slice of thin-crust (veggie, hopefully) pizza, and some chips. Everything in moderation!
Food Intake:
Pre-breakfast (I accidentally woke up at 6.45am and had to leave for school by 7am so by the time I showered & brushed my teeth I didn’t have time for breakfast so I just grabbed some food) - Nutella on white bread. It was just a small piece. Yes I am quite disappointed but I didn’t have any more wholegrain bread & peanut butter at home and I HAD to eat something to break my fast. Like I said, I must get some groceries soon..
Breakfast (at school)- Rice vermicelli + quarter of a hash brown.

Good day! Last week of school and Year 9 starting tomorrow! Have a strong week guysss (: I think I’m gonna start Insanity after I get back from a vacation in Japan, which is on the 27th and it’s during my 2-month summer holidays! :)
I had a great day. I woke up at noon though; went to a Greyson Chance concert last night!! He was so amazingly talented and right after, we stalked him at his hotel and I TOUCHED HIS HAND and- okay I’ll stop my fangirling here.
Workout:
Sun Salutations + Bodyrock (I’m sexy & I know it) + 34 minute running & walking (couch25k W2D1)

Breakfast- I skipped this because, as I said, I woke up at noon.
Lunch- Chinese stir-fried rice with bacon + Longan fruit.
Snack- Yakult + Pretzels.
Dinner- Rice + Bacon omelette, Grilled fish, steamed pork & bak choy.
Just so you know, I really don’t control what I eat for lunch/dinner on weekends because my grandma cooks and because I’m Chinese. So yeah, it’s our culture to eat white rice everyday and I can’t change that unfortunately. I do have control over what I eat at school, and I pack my food everyday.
1. To run every. single. day. Six days a week. I don’t care how far (okay I do, but still-), I must find the willpower to run every single day, at least 2 miles. I have this 3km XC thing next year, it’s compulsory for everyone in school and I want to win for it! :D
2. To follow the Blogilates 90-day plan.
3. To do more Bodyrock!
4. Improve on my sprint times. Musttt sprint more!
5. Consciously form good habits. Eg: 1. Sleep earlier, and wake earlier. 2. Magically transform self into a morning person. 3. LIKE running. *It usually takes about 21 days for something to become a habit*
6. Eat breakfast everyday.
That’s about it! :D
