Reasoning with jogging


You wouldn't believe that I went jogging today!! Freaking cold but yeah, people, I DID IT!

I was always thinking to go jogging someday... Never been jogging since the beginning of this year, like March/ April. Been procastinating, as usual.

It is worst during winter time...

Angel: You should go have a nice jog today.
Demon: Can't you see it, it's gonna rain real soon!! See, the dark cloud over there, over there... (pointing to somewhere several thousands kilometers away)

Angel: Time for a jog, it's sunny today!
Demon: Oh mann, but it's so cold out there.

Angel: It's 20C and perfectly sunny today! I'd bet you have no reason to not to jog today.
Demon: Oh I am tired... I slept at 3am yesterday... Ooops, it's TODAY practically.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Oh so why am I motivated today?

Reason 1: Mummy is coming, I don't think she wants to see me in this big fat shape. Muscle is always better than fat, isn't it? The fact that I can actually makes my fat looks more less like themselves but more like muscle in 3 days (if I jog for around an hour per day for 3 consecutive day <-- yeah i did it before) is giving me hopes to not dissapoint my mom. And MYSELF.

Reason 2: I am procastinating. Procastination for doing assignment wins over the procastination for jogging. (yay) Everything just appears to be so much more very super duper ultra interesting when it comes to time to deal with assignment. (don't you think so?) kay kay, what happened was i went round the uni for the 'spot the ruin' assignment (it's a nickname by the way, it sounds more fun this way, isn't it? Although it's not at all. ), and just feel like jogging after that. Odd, isn't it? Probably some abnormal hormonal change today. (I want this hormone to be excreted EVERYDAY! Who cares if it's abnormal!)


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
But you know what, I think what's the bigger problem now is my supper addiction. It's ridiculous. I hope there is some PERMANENT hormonal change happens one day, so I will no longer be craving for late dinner/supper.

I caught Lindt Chocolate Cafe in Melbourne

Guessed what?
LIND
T CHOCLATE CAFE is now in MELBOURNE!!!

It was unbelievable!! I love Lindt!! They made the most amazing chocolate ever!!

But there is another incident that leads to my amazement!!! The story went so -->

I actually heard from a friend of mine who went to Sydney recently and tried out Lindt Chocolate cafe before, and I wished that there will be one in Melbourne too~ And you know what, I saw Lindt choc cafe advertisement at Collins St almost immediately after that when I was ON TRAM! Yes, ON TRAM, and I believe I was talking!!! I know, you talk with your mouth, not your eyes, but I think you normally doens't look around (like outside the tram on the street that you pass by almost every single day!)... I guessed erm, the Lindt's Black Forest cake advertisement is just too eye catching!!! (high 5 to the ad designer =))

I paid the cafe a visit the day after I saw the ad ( it was late night when I found the ad, and you know, melbournians particularly the shop owners rest early )! Didn't get to dine-in though, it was uberly FULL!

Anyway, how could Moon gave up her favourite chocolate merely because of this? She went in the day after that again! (I started to realised my obsession towards chocolate actually gave me extraordinary amount of determination and patience!) And look, what she have got...



Yummy
Wimbeldon (almond vanilla cake, layered wth mascarpone and fresh strawberries as well as puree)!!


and classic
Milk Iced chocolate ( you can choose among dark, milk or white iced chocolate btw. Gonna try dark one next time! I love them =))




This is the 'Chocolat Cerise' (Black forest cake) that appears in the ad!!



A very dense chocolate-mudcake-like cake that my friend got.



Not forgetting the wonderful interior environment!!! Classical ?!?! (<-- Archi's disease, whoops!) and psssst... customer weren't allowed to take photo of the cafe's interior, or else I would take more!! I couldn't kept pretending that I am fixing my camera, could I? Awesome experience in general!! Elegant, indulgence et cetera, et cetera, until i saw the bill...
I know what you're thinking. But... NO!! I DON'T mean the PRICE!! (it's expected somehow, isn't quality of food usually proportional with the price?)

Okay okay, see once more...


Nah!!! I meant the
ADDRESS!!! I am NOT in Sydney, although er... I wish I was!!!

Conclusion?
The manager must be a geography noob.
Joking ^^
*praying that Lindt's manager didn't see this or he doesn't understand English.*

Anyway, lovely experience I had in Lindt Chocolate cafe!!

Btw, Yay for another chocolate cafe in Melbourne after KokoBlack, Max Brenners and San Churros !! (did I left any?) And oh, I heard there is gonna be another outlet in Chadston soon!! A shopping and dessert-ing tour sounds tempting!

Kay Cheers for Chocolate.

My Sister's Keeper


Just watched 'My Sister's Keeper'... I couldn't say it's the best movie I have ever watched or something like that but it's definitely emotion provoking, especially those stupid tears that wouldn't stop rolling down. Stupid.

Not gonna talk about the story and plot, for the sake of you to enjoy the movie =) haha.. keep mysterious.

But I found a funny thing with the movie's cast credit, How can Abigail's name on top of the poster beside Cameron while Sofia's at the bottom printed with minimum opacity (not enough ink? ) ? I am quite sure that Sofia as Kate appeared more than Abigail in the movie.... <-- I don't mean I hate or dislike Abigail, she is lovely!!! I actually like her =) I just don't understand how they do the poster and credits...

But yeah, great movie. Just make sure you use waterproof mascara if you do makeup =)

Life is full of dilemma, full of conflict, between things, and between people... I don't know if I am weird, but conflict exists between my brain and heart quite often, seriously... Am I weird? Can someone tell me please? Your contrubtion will reallly be appreciated =) I have no prize for you, but I am serious here. Yes I am.

Or you might not realise it, so I gonna explain here, my definition of 'brain-heart conflict'.

brain-heart conflict

An internal clash or disharmony between feelings (uncontrollable) and thinking (controllable).

and sometimes yoknow you shouldn't DO so, but you just DO SO. "
