Will be leaving for australia this sunday… its a good chance to take a break from the monotonous RP duties in bedok camp. Once back, will have loads of off+leave to clear and also 5 months+ before O.R.D.
Bought myself my first ever bike on sunday, at the bike shop below my house. Cost me $370 total including the misc stuff. Has front suspension and 7-speed shimano gears, quite light as well since its frame is made of aluminium. Majority of it was paid by my mum though, as a birthday present. Was quite surprised when she offered to pay. Thanks to joel as well for giving opinions on choosing the right one. This is the pic but it looks better cause mine is black and looks quite sleek.
On the other hand, also submitted applications to HKU and HKUST, gonna apply for CUHK when they open for application. They are the top 3 unis in Hong Kong, and hopefully one of them accepts me, ha. Not very confident though! *_*
KEVIN Keegan believes that Newcastle United have captured a player of the “very highest calibre” after Fabricio Coloccini became the most expensive defender in the club’s history.
Coloccini, capped 27 times by Argentina, replaced Jonathan Woodgate as the Magpies’ record rearguard acquisition as he penned a five-year deal at St.James’ Park this week.
And, in an exclusive interview with nufc.co.uk, gaffer KK spoke of his delight after adding the former Deportivo La Coruna ace to his black-and-white ranks.
“I’m delighted that the deal is now done,” said the Toon chief.
JONAS Gutierrez has welcomed Argentina team-mate Fabricio Coloccini to Newcastle United and says that he is delighted to be playing alongside his compatriot week-in-week-out.
The pair have been La Liga opponents for the past three seasons with former Deportivo La Coruna defender Coloccini often charged with task of nullifying the attacking threat of Gutierrez and his Real Mallorca comrades.
But now, with both having penned five-year deals at St.James’ Park, winger Jonas admits he cannot wait to share a St.James’ Park dressing room with a player he rated among one of the best in the Spanish top flight.
“I know from playing against Fabricio in La Liga and as a team-mate for Argentina what a good player he is - I’m just happy we’re on the same side all of the time now!,” the 25-year-old told nufc.co.uk in an exclusive interview after Coloccini became the most expensive defender in United’s history.
i never used to like sad songs… and wondered why people did
but now i know why…
1. Eat Breakfast
You’ve heard it before: Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Many people skip breakfast because they don’t have time or they don’t like traditional breakfast foods. But if you
wait until lunch to eat, your body assumes you’re fasting and responds by slowing your metabolism. If you’re pressed for time, try eating something quick like cereal, peanut butter on toast, or cottage cheese and fruit. And remember, if you eat breakfast, you have a greater chance of burning off calories (during a run, for instance!) since you’re consuming them early in the day.
2. Drink Green Tea
Green tea has been shown to boost metabolism. Researchers believe that antioxidants in green tea can cause the body to waste calories as heat, which increases your caloric burn.
3. Spice It Up
Adding hot peppers such as jalapenos to your meals can increase the amount of calories your body burns during digestion. If you like your food to have a little kick, it’s an easy way rev up your metabolism.
4. Build Lean Body Mass
The more lean muscle you have, the more calories you’ll burn, even while resting. As we age, we naturally lose muscle mass, so it’s important to work at building it. Even doing resistance or weight training just twice a week can make a big difference. And, ladies, don’t worry — regular strength training will make you look toned, not bulked-up.
5. Don’t Skip Meals
Our bodies have a built-in survival mechanism to conserve calories when we go for a long period of time without eating. So, when you skip meals, your body slows your metabolism to prevent you from starving. To prevent this, try to eat five to six small meals each day, or three meals and some healthy snacks in between.
6. Eat Protein With Every Meal
Our bodies have to work hard to digest the foods we eat, and your metabolism revs up in response. However, eating protein boosts your metabolism a little more than consuming carbohydrates or fats with the same number of calories. Of course, don’t take that to mean that you should switch to a high-protein diet, since carbs are the main source of energy for runners. But try to incorporate lean protein into most meals. Your best sources for protein include: fish, lean red meat, skinless chicken or turkey breast, nonfat yogurt, skim milk, eggs and egg substitutes, beans, tofu, and lentils.
7. Stay Active Every Day
Try to keep moving as much as possible during the day. If you have a desk job, do leg lifts as you sit at your desk or take frequent breaks to walk around.

You are a very simple person, indeed. Absolutely hassle free, humble and down-to-earth!! That explains the reason why your friends cling on to you! You have a good taste for clothes. If your wardrobe is not updated with what is trendy, you sure are depressed. Popular and easy-going. You have a little group of dignified friends, all of them being quality-personified.
If you are a Slug: Always up to some sort of a mischief! The mischievous gleam in your eyes is what makes you so cute and attractive to everyone. You are an extremely fun-to-be-with kind of person. No wonder people seek for your company and look forward to include you for all get-together’s. However, you are sensitive which is a drawback. People need to select their words while talking to you. If someone tries to fiddle around and play with words while dealing with you, it is enough to invite your wrath.
God bless the person then!
If you are a Cockroach: Quite contradictory to your name, you are a peace loving person. You best try to avoid a situation wherein you are required to fight. An outdoor person, you dislike sitting at one place for a long duration. You are a born leader, and have it in you how to tactfully derive work from people. You love being loved, and when you receive your share of limelight from someone, you are all theirs!!!! Well, well… hence some people could even take an advantage, flatter you to the maximum and get their work done. So be careful….. ;
If you are a Parasite: An extremely lovable, adorable person, sometimes shy, with a passion for quick wit. At times, you prefer quietness. You love exploring various things and going into depth of each thing. Under normal circumstances you’re cool but when given a reason to, you are like a volcano waiting to erupt. You’re a fashion bird. People look forward to you as an icon associated with fashion. Basically, you mingle along freely but don’t like talking much to strangers. People feel very easy in your company. You observe care in choosing your friends.
If you are a Skunk: You are near to perfect and nice at heart. The examples of your kindness are always circulated in groups of people. You too, love peace. You wouldn’t like to retaliate even to a person who is in the wrong. You are loved due to this. You do not wish to talk behind one’s back. People love the way you always treat them. You can give, give and give love, and the best part is that you do not expect it back in return. You are generous enough. Seeing things in a practical light is what the best trait of you guys remains.
If you are a Bullfrog: You symbolize a very happy-go-lucky approach in life. Whatever the surroundings may be, grim or cheerful, you remain unaffected. In fact, you spread cheer wherever you go. You are the leader of your group of friends and good at consoling people in their times of need. You dislike hypocrisy and tend to shirk away from hypocrites. They can never be in your good books, no matter what. You are very methodical and organized in your work. No amount of mess, hence, can ever encompass you. Beware; it is easy for you to fall in love….
If you are a Snake: You are mysterious. You are someone who can handle pressure with ease, and can handle any atmosphere without going berserk. You can be mean at times, and love to gossip with your selected group. Very prim and proper. You like all situations and things to be in the way you desire, which, sometimes is not possible. As a result, you may lose out in some relationships. But otherwise, you love to help people out from difficult and tight spots when they really need you.
If you are an Ape: Very impatient and hyper!!! You want things to be done as quickly as possible. At heart, you are quite simple and love if you are the center of attraction. That way, you people are unique..You would like to keep yourself safe from all the angles. Shall your name be dragged or featured in any sort of a controversy, you then go all panicky. Therefore, you take your precautions from the very beginning. When you foresee anything wrong, your sixth sense is what saves you from falling in traps. Quite a money minded bunch you people are!!
