to live healthier

June came and continues forward very fast. Its 3rd of June today, going to check on my post diploma at ex-college tomorrow, pack some needed stuffs the day after and going to fly back to Kuala Lumpur on wednesday.

I promised myself to start eating healthier but its so hard doing so here at home. Dad always cooks up nice foods for us. The Kaamatan and the family gathering doesn't encourage me to do so either. Pour some thoughts on healthy eating to yours trully but I didn't get much motivational supports as needed. Since I'm going away for a week+ and I thought the days there are scheduled neatly and tight, I might have a little boost of healthy lifestyle just by waking up super early and exercising every single day for one whole week+. I dreaded going back, but a one week torture might give my diet here a rest and I probably can cope with a healthier diet I've been sporting during attachment. Its way more healthier and I don't find myself feeling guilty indulging on those delicious foods because I'm sweating my fats, have my cells functioning like crazy every single minute.

Been spying on some health blog for some time now. Aside from playing with my unnamed ukulele and our #Nikita ohh and our dog at home which causes me 7 bruises and 1 bite mark (which I'm not aware of but had fun playing with her), I'm always looking for healthy food blog, photos and yes many of them got me motivated in doing what I really want to do now-eat healthy. Even cutely arranged baby meals got me inspired and motivated. I'm going to be good at this in a couple of weeks #crossing fingers. I don't aim to lose weight, I aim to live healthier. But for tonight, we're going to have pizza, avocado juice and movie marathon here in the living room. See, that's the distraction I was talking about. Darn it! The fatty foods always taste so nice.

Going to eat better tomorrow.

May, Kaamatan and Unduk Ngadau 2012

This is going to be a wrap of May 2012 and Harvest Festival. You might want to grab a popcorn.

The month of celebration is finally over. Had my very final exam this month, results are in and its good, work will finally settle down as I prepare for one week of torture back at college next week and yes, I hope your holidays are doing fine so far.

I dragged #panda to KDCA on the 30May for a piece of Harvest Festival celebration or Kaamatan as we call it in native language. Its summer here all year round so what do you expect? Striking hot weather! So we bought ourselves some ice cream to go around the crowd. So glad that I've decided to tie my hair high and put on a dress instead of some fancy clothing.

The celebration was happening; the traditional costumes and it's blings, the sounds of local musics, traditional dances, sports and games, instruments and all the traditions, the young and old generation comes together to celebrate this once a year celebration. Its was beautiful, unifying, fun; even the tourists thinks so too. Its better than independence day I must say. I had great fun. Met some long lost friends along the way and we took like 4 repeated rounds of the whole place. It still wasn't enough. Like #panda said, there's always something to see. Picture time.

Sadly, the tour around KDCA come to an end as we head back home, pack our things, went to Rasa Ria for some business and finally heads straight to Ranau for family party-ish thing. Went back to KK the next morning but decided to stay at home since we were terribly tired. There were drag race happening in Sandakan so traffic was bad both towards KK and Sandakan.

By the way, I was rooting for UN Tambunan for the crown this year but she got 2nd Runner up instead. UN Telupid grabbed the 1st place and 2nd was KK.  Predicted UN Tambunan and UN Telupid to be in the top 3 since they nagged the Tati Tosuau (Miss Friendly) and Tati Topiod (Miss natural beauty)during the Gala Night. Still, everyone of them are winners. Congratulation to all the beauties.

Here's some pictures. Credit to Goggle and Tay Kenneth.

Winners are;

Unduk Ngadau 2012: UN Telupid (Miss Melinda Louis)
1st Runner Up: UN Kota Kinabalu (Miss Fenney Doimis)
2nd Runner Up: UN Tambunan (Miss Meryl Foster Placidius Dominic)

I won't mind

hello cats >^^<

The lights is dim around the house as the day finally comes to an end. Darn the mosquito! Finally got the chores done today. 60% of it to be sure. The house were not meant to be cleaned by one small person as me in one whole day. I feel cleaner environment. Won't mind the tiredness when it comes to cleanliness. 

Bought new gadget and new instrument which I am tremendously, excitedly and overwhelmingly happy about. Been spending every available seconds with it.

Aside from that, I've been driving around Kota Kinabalu like crazy for the past week. Its exhausting and yes, its tormenting my private minutes. I'm beginning to despise phone calls hence, I don't bother having it recharged.

Who knows

Hello busy bees..

 Its been quite sometime since I've updated bloggie here. Who knows holidays could be this busy, tiring and yea I can tell you guys that I haven't been getting enough sleep. I mean that lazy arse, holiday mood sleep.

Thank God for some dinner for two and movie night with yours truly. It takes that whole day tiredness away. I'm only actively updating instagram these days. Its quite a helpful thing to remind me of the stuffs I did and done.

I don't want to re-post photos I've taken on instag. I'd do that sometimes but today I'll post something else. Its my breakfast the other day before I head off to Shangri-La's Rasa Ria Resort to fetch #panda. Coffee (a must), two toasted bread with a little bit of those low fat butter, scrambled eggs with lots of shallots (because I love them), one whole banana and oyster sauce with a pinch of salt to taste. Ahh, heaven.

Been taking healthier foods since being here. Its nice that he also have the same thought of not having carbonated drinks, less fatty foods and maintaining our weight. I'm happy with the changes that are taking place now. Maybe its because I'm getting older and the only thing I can think of as the time pass is maintaining healthy lifestyle.

Going to work now.

Sunset sky

The nicest picture taken yesterday. Filtered using instagram's Pro-X if I'm not mistaken. Taken by yours trully #panda

Hello,

I'm at home. Spent time at Nexus, Karambunai City Resort with the other half's friends yesterday. Wasn't that fun. They were all speaking mandarine, cantonese etc. I was the only noob one. The only good thing was the waves, sunsets and spending time with #panda. Wasn't feeling very well.

Going home today. Blogged a while waiting for my flight but then it end up on waiting list in my blog draft.

Have tons on picture to be posted on instagram. Just waiting for the right time. I don't know when that is but it going to be up soon. Going to catch some movies with the family tonight. I hope you guys had a great weekend.
