Celtic Lounge

The BF and myself together with two other friends attended the Live & Loud - Chinese All Stars. The concert was held as the Bukit Kiara Equestrian Park. We arrived about 8pm. There was limited parking at the place and many people were already parking by the roadside and highway. Anyway, we managed to find a parking at the Securities Commission which was legal and quite near to the venue.

The event was held in the open air on the field. There were no chairs so one had to sit on the grass when the feet got tired from standing. The BF and I enjoyed the concert especially when Zhang Hui Mei (A-Mei) gave a fantastic finale.

Rayman Raving Rabbids 2 is here! The BF and myself could not resist and already started playing the game.

OMG!!! This is one of the tracks from BodyJam 34 but the dance movements in this video are damn hiao la! Enjoy!!

* Your mobile ring tone is a BodyJam track

* When you’re out shopping and a Jam song comes on and you start doing the moves down the Aisles

* When the instructor calls out your name in the class and you bust out your moves

* When the instructor takes their queue from you

* When you’re in a club and a jam track comes on and you and your ‘Jam’ buddies start doing all the moves

* When you’re in the class and someone’s invading your ‘Personal space’ so when it’s time to do a ‘Step to the left’ your step is like, 2 meters wide

* When you can be ‘Dramatic’ and still look good

* When you hear a new song and think “Hmmmm….that would be good with a kick ball change and a mambo”

* When you go to a class and the instructor says “What track do you wanna do?” and you yell out “2nd block, release 41!!”

* When you go do Jam at one gym then make a quick exit so you can make the next Jam class at another gym

* When you try to attend the instructor only tuitions

* When you hold the finishing pose a little longer than everyone else

* You can practice your spins after class in front of the mirror

* When you start telling one instructor that another jam instructor needs to learn new stuff cos they keep doing the same routine at every class

Yep, yep that’s when you’re a Jam freak!!

For the first time today, I did the entire BodyJam 43. I tried the second half of BodyJam 43 on Tuesday and the first half on Friday. Although it was a working day on Friday, many took leave just to attend the class. Gosh, I’m turning into a BodyJam freak! Hahaha…

Now, here’s my personal review of BodyJam 43…. The warm-up gets you going with a box-step, something different from the regular easy moves and stretching. The music is so catchy, it makes me want to do the box-step now!

Next comes the isolation track, it has so many side steps that you practically have to count in order to get it right.

The first block has a disco feel, bring back the John Travolta feel. Finger to the left, finger to the right… arms roll down, arms roll up… boogaloo….then right in the middle of the block, comes a very drama “no more tears”, arm lines including tears rolling down your face! So drama!!! But it finishes off with another fantastic track by Freemasons “nothing but a heartache”.

The recovery this time round is rather yucky… didn’t like it at all, so I shall say much about it.

The second block is my favourite. Just love the moves so much… starts with “please don’t stop the music”. Yes, Rihana is back again! And just when you think it was great, in comes “the way i are”. Arms go popping right, left, right, left then right hand point left, left hand point right, both hands point up and both hands point down. Everyone just goes crazy as the moves are simple! From here, we go back to “please don’t stop the music” again but this time the remix version!

I am really going to enjoy BodyJam 43!

The BF and I have been in relationship since 01 November. We managed to keep it a secret until today. Guess there is only so long that you can keep things hidden.

Surprised the BF today as he was not expecting to see me until tonight. Through a good friend, we set up the lunch surprise. Both of them were seated at the restaurant when I went up to their table and gave the BF a surprise. The reaction on his face was priceless….

I would like to sincerely apologize to a close friend whom I still consider as my sister. I am doing this cos I appreciate the friendship and the closeness that we share. In this little circle that we are in, we should be building bridges instead of walls.

True friendship is a gift,
So precious and so rare.
Sometimes we take it for granted,
Sometimes we do despair.

Our fault is being human,
Mistakes are everywhere.
Please let me not lose the gift,
That is so precious and so rare.
