I Got Tired

Extremely tired.

I played basketball this afternoon. After around 15 minutes into the game, I was huffing and puffing already. What the hell? I have to get back in shape. Sports is far better than going to the gym. Gym is boring. Nothing much happens. I'll try to get into sports more from now on. I'll finish my gym subscription first. Basketball is first on the list since I don't have soccer or futsal shoes yet.

Malfunctioning

For about two months now, I've been having difficulties hearing from my left ear. I didn't pay much attention to it because I thought everything would go back to normal after a few days. Three weeks in, still the same. It's not that I can't hear from my left ear. It's just that at times, it's difficult to hear what a person is saying when there are other noises around. Sometimes, I'd just stick my finger to it and wiggle it a bit and it would go back to normal. But after a few minutes, the problem goes back.

Recently, I stumbled upon a blog post about the same ear problem. For the hearing to be normal again, a surgery was needed. I don't like the sound of surgery. I'm not afraid of undergoing surgery. I just find it so much of a hassle.

Anyway, I've decided to go to a doctor this week. Hopefully, it's nothing serious.

I.Am.Productive

One of my goals this year is to hit the gym regularly. See related post. Although I was a bit late in starting my training, I congratulate myself nevertheless. The hardest part for me was the first jump. I'm not used to train by myself. I really think it’s boring. Thirty minutes on the treadmill and all I see is the same Makati skyline getting darker and darker. Then another hour or so for other weight loss activities. In weight loss training program, I don’t get to use the big machines yet, maybe just a few. Boring. But I think I have adjusted to it now.

This Year's List

Every year, I make a list of my new year’s resolution. I can’t remember what exactly were included in my lists for the past years but I know my list this year is unique compared to the former. Also, every year, my resolutions would only last up to the third or fourth week of January. After that, I completely forget about it. It’s not that I stop doing them intentionally, I just……forget. I thought maybe I should post it somewhere that I normally visit so I would always remember. I can’t find a better place to post this list than my blog site.

This year, I decided to focus on what I’ve been ignoring for a very long time now, my health. This consciousness came about when I heard news everywhere about young people dying because of high blood pressure. Some refer to this as the silent killer. You won’t notice it if you’re not careful enough and then…BOOM!...it hits you. Some of you may know that I have a high blood pressure. This is the reason why I was struck by the chain of events that I heard. I have to start to live right today.

More after the jump.
