If you realize the unity of your Self amid the diversities of your surroundings, then anything will not seem an impossible thing to you. Surf. Sun. Sand. Shanti. Ohm.
a friend of mine told me recently that i should blog more about my sickness wtf so that i can cope better. well.. that friend of mine din’t know i have a blog. :/
so anyway…………
i am good. :) i am eating my meds diligently wtf and i am going for alternative meds (chinese bitter concoctions hurrah). i am also on a very sad diet (die with a T :() now which basically is very depressing because the smell of coffee and nasi lemak every morning from my fellow friends and colleagues are killing me. I keep telling myself to be patience and after 2-3 months.. i will be okay and i can eat all my favourite food in the world again. yes. wasabi included! :) so yeah.. what i need now ……. is to be really strict with myself and say NO.
on the other note… i have missed my adv yoga class for 3 weeks now O_O
i gave myself time to recover my right leg and yesterday @ the gym… i tried doing a split and my right leg just isnt that strong yet/anymore. :( hmm
i also tried doing a milder version (Utthita Hasta Padangustasana) or Extended Hand-To-Big-Toe Pose but yet again, my right leg can just be lifted 90 degrees of the floor. Although it was straight, i can feel the strain at the muscles and the mild pain still. I used to be able to lift it at least 140 degrees close to my head but now.. i just cant do that anymore due to the pain. :( bleh.
i guess i must give my leg some time to heal.
on the bright side……… capoeira is FUNS! :) Challenging and scary but FUNS! :D
At least for the moment, Capoeira is my weekly sport and it is sufficient. I am going to start Advance Yoga again today so *cross fingers* i can still do my regular balancing poses with grace and not squint from my leg pain >.<
and if all's good... hopefully i can run this sunday on KL Marathon! :)
i just got to keep in mind not to strain my legs so much now.
and so, if you haven’t already heard…. i was just discharged yesterday from a private hospital near my place…
long story short… it has nothing to do with my leg injury (which is ok now.. i am able to walk again and the short story is that i am diagnosed with a few complications. And what i have to do now, is to go on a crazy diet which i think includes just plain porridge and plain water for the next 2 weeks. i have to refrain from eating anything with coffee, alco, chocolate, milk, citrus related, spicy or tomato based, italian based , japanese, garlic, onion and mint.
AWESOME right? Basically about everything i love is forbidden. just plain awesome.
i also need to stay away from ciggy smokes and anything potentially harmful for now.

remember how i used to blog about the ironies in life…
well………….. fuck it.
i figured that if anything were to bring me down now… it aint this sickness..
so yeah…
the instructor’s right! all of us will gain weight after CNY and it will be super hard for us to achieve any advance poses! super scary! makes me wanna practise yoga everyday after binging on CNY goodies O_O

anyhoo…
nowadays, foo, my adv hatha class instructor have moved from headstand>scorpion to handstand>scorpion.
DAMN challenging!!! and actually… it is 10000x more challenging for me considering i just had a super sporty weekend (marathon, badminton and swimming wtf). my wrist was screaming for help and my thighs were shaking like mad!
but i still wanted to try out the handstand scorpion because im crazy wtf.
this week, we were to do the two variations of handstand over the wall (one facing wall and vice versa). once we manage to do a handstand facing the wall… we can actually arch our back to a handstand scorpion. sounds easy peasy i know but i couldnt do it. =.= i can only do a lousy handstand and then gave up because my arms were screaming. too much workout over the weekend and i cant even balance my body right. and right now while typing this entry.. my wrist hurts like hell. i am only merely moving my fingers as my wrist is in no position to move at all…..
bleh.
anyhoo… no reasons to slack though.. i know by mastering the handstand… all future adv poses will be a piece of cake. determination and focus is key (not forgetting.. super strong arms)
the amazing handstand scorpion. :)

i also found out why i failed today.
=.=
i giggled too much.
actually… i burst out into a laughing fit when foo help me to balance on the handstand. i felt it was ticklish so i kept laughing while i was on the handstand pose… too much laughing and i end up bending my stomache and came down from the handstand pose before even going to scorpion. =.=
damn. in my next class.. i must not laugh nor smile when foo crack a joke. =.= very hard but i guess i must try. :/
and here’s to end my yoga failure post…
a vid on headstand >scorpion and handstand>scorpion.. to show u how not easy it is.. T____________T
