Lazy!

It's been a long time since my last post. What a way to start 2009 :-P

Let's see how I did with my three new year resolutions... I have managed to wake up before noon for sure. I did run almost everyday until I got really sick the last few days. I know this shouldn't be the excuse but I really just couldn't get myself going. I will try tonight for sure and hopefully I can get back on the regular running thing. As for the batting cage, I have NOT gone to batting cage once this year yet!!! I am going to make an effort to go this Saturday for sure! Second thought, our indoor softball team has been doing very well lately. Maybe I should leave it the way it is?

So I was at VCA Animal Hospital in South Weymouth last night for my dog, Spanky. He's been sick the last few days too. I wondering what is going on... It was me and then it was him! I guess Spanky is getting old and we were told that there is a chance that he might have cancer. We are still waiting for the result and hopefully it is not that serious... I always think if I can take good care of the pets, that might indicate that I can have kids. It looks like I am probably not ready for kids anytime soon! Our cat, Tuff, is finally better from the surgery late last year, it is Spanky now...

I know I probably shouldn't complain about the weather, but this winter really sucks! I actually don't remember getting this much snow for a couple years. We got a lot of snow last Sunday again and for whatever reason BSSC decided to not cancel the games. It was very tough driving condition and took us an hour and 40 minutes to even get to the field. We alomst hit someone when we got off 495! Luckily, all of us who showed up on Sunday made it to and back from the field safely. And even better part is we won both of our football games!!! We definitely needed the win as we actually lost two games the week before.

Yesterday was a historical day in the U.S. history as we have our first black president. With the economy and everything else, I guess people are in need for a change. I never really follow politics much and can't really comment on anything. Let's just hope that things will get better!

My New Year Resolutions

Happy New Year!!! I can't believe it's 2009. This will be the 10th year since I came to this country. what can people do in 10 years? I think I came a long way from who I was then to who I am now. For one, I am able to use English to blog! I got my two master degrees, have a decent job, started to play softball and football and most importantly I have a great group of friends. yes, without my family and the friends, I don't think I can make it. Thank you, everyone!

Just like everyone else, I guess today is the day to think about my new year resolutions. I actually started thinking about it for a few days so here goes my new year resolutions...

I will not sleep pass noon time on the days I don't work
I am never a morning person so waking up early is like mission impossible for me. Of course, when it comes to weekends and holidays, I usually sleep until whenever (whenever reads after noon time). It's been a while that I didn't even get up until 2 or 3 in the afternoon. This results in not being able to go to bed early at night and wake up even later the next day. And if the next day I have to work and have to get up early, it would result in a very inefficient day at work due to the lack of sleep.This is bad! I know I will not be able to change to morning person right away, but my goal is I will not sleep pass noon time no matter what! Hopefully at this time next year, my goal would be to wake up before 9 AM :-)

I will run 30 minutes on the treadmill everyday
I guess the goal behind this is really to lose weight, even though most people think I probably don't need to lose much. I don't go to the gym. The only exercise I really have is probably the softball and football games once a week. I don't think this is enough exercise. On top of that, I want to win the bet with my coworker!! There is still one more week to go and whoever loses the most percentage weight will win $60!

I will try to go to batting cage on a regular basis
I am never good with sports growing up. Somehow I got myself involved with softball and football now. I guess since I didn't play sports when I was young, I have to put more effort now to catch up.
