7 days challenge

there's this tantangan 7 hari which ask people to commit to do something consecutively within 7 days. you failed, you repeat from day 1. a lot of people choose to exercise, cook, write, avoid fried food, avoid junk food, etc etc. before i found that thing out, i already started to avoid some things, like mentioned in the previous post.

1. rice
this is due to my tootache 1 month ago. i didnt want to eat rice because its hard to chew the dishes (meat, veggie, etc). so i opted for other food. after my tooth gets better, i still continue to avoid rice. there were times that i really really want to eat rice (with those soto betawi, iga bakar, urghhhh) but i decided not to. overall i feel so proud of myself, knowing how i cant leave without rice before this

2. coffee
together with avoiding rice, i tried to avoid sweetened drink as well. i dont drink soda or those packet drink so this one should be easy. but, not so easy since there is 1 starbucks downstairs, which i visit regularly especially if im bored or sleepy. i dont take bitter coffee without sugar so for me is either go big or not at all. i decided to not just cut down, but cut off my coffee intake. it's been 3 weeks and still counting now

in conjunction of tantangan 7 hari, i would like to make 3 challenges for myself this week:

1. no sweetened drink at all
2. no (deep) fried food at all *tumis boleh lah yaa :D*
3. wear heels everyday *believe me, this is hard for me*

hopefully i can make it through the week. kalo sukses, minggu depan lanjut/ganti tantangan biar seru :D

fri-sun

felt like ive been very productive this weekend. watched the hunger games on friday night, finished watching around 12 then went back home and sleep. woke up around 9, did some sun salutation then me and dilla were up to this idea of cleaning our wardrobe. there were all these old blankets, bed covers, bed sheets, and some other old stuff that needed to be thrown out. we were like soooo proud looking at our cleaner much neater wardrobe.



had dinner with the girls + yuska + gilang's parents. i ate a lot. sharing is caring (or we thought), so we ordered some stuff to be shared. rosti, pizza, savoury crepe, mixed grill, chocolate mousse, ice cream, cheesecake, etc etc etc. by the time we finished dinner, i felt like my tummy is about to explode :-O
ended the day with a super long super duper nice sleep from 1 something am until 11 am! yeayea imma sleepyhead. woke up and did some sun salutation to kick the day. then decided to go to workshop to fix my car horn *it hasnt been working since 2 weeks ago and im too lazy to fix it*. went to the workshop and the guy said he needs 1 hour to fix. so we went to a nearby restaurant to have lunch. i had ribs *for the second time this week* and it was my fourth time going there in this week. the restaurant should probably give me a reward for bringing more customers *ngarep*
leha-leha at home for awhile until 6 pm then had a badminton session for 1.5 hours with dilla yuska and the others. boyyy, was i exhausted. my right hand is still shaking until now. that is the price you have to pay for a lazyass like me.
tomorrow is already monday, again. we'll see what the world brings next week. hopefully nothing too much and everything will go fine until the weekend :D

uhu!

kadang, rasanya kepingin punya stok sabar extra berkarung-karung. apalagi kalo lagi berhadapan sama kerjaan yang ga pernah habis. apalagi kalo kerjaannya berhubungan sama klien. apalagi kliennya kayak batu, keras kepala, dan suka maksa. apalagi kalo kliennya suka ngotot, tapi suka salah. apalagi kalo request ga masuk akal dari si klien harus disampein ke programmer, terus programmernya marah-marah karena requestnya ga masuk akal tapi tetep harus dibuat. rasanya grrrrrrrrr mmmhhhhhhhhhhh rrrrrrgghhhhhhh gitu.

kadang-kadang gue suka kepikiran kok gue sabar amat ya? hahahaha *ketawa miris ke diri sendiri*. this client has been with my company for quite sometime, thus, they treat us like friends rather than client. mau ini itu mintanya gratisan. punya budget 100 minta produk harga 1000. udah budget dikit, mintanya banyak, maunya selesai cepet. kalo bukan sumber pendapatan perusahaan sihh ihhhhhhhhh, gue cubit deh pipinya satu-satu. gemessssssssss!

by the way, gue udah ga makan nasi loh. one month and still counting! tapi makan gorengan, cake, other carbs, creamy stuff sih tetep. satu-satu lah ya. minggu depan mulai deh, no rice and noodle. semoga aja bisa. atau no rice and fried food. akhir-akhir ini juga gue sering yoga, terinspirasi dari geng ibu-ibu arisan yang kerjaannya mantengin youtube terus ngikutin exercise dari video-video. of courseee, gue lebih banyak males dibanding rajinnya. tapi at least this is something for me yang super malas ini. niatnya sih pingin join kelas biar gerakannya bener dan ga sakit pinggang, tapi belom sempet tanya-tanya. atau pingin join celebfit biar fit kayak celeb *apadeh* tapiii *yatapiterus* belom ada waktu mau liat-liat. semoga minggu-minggu depan udah rajin exercise biar bodi semlohayy kayak jessica alba *insert kedip kedip genit emoticon here*

5.0

this week's happiness:

1. I had a very laid back week in the office
everything went smooth, no very busy day, no overtime, no stressful time. I even managed to steal quick nap here and there this week :p

2. I lost weight (and body fat)!
i never weigh myself regularly, so when this friday i weigh myself and found out that i lost about 1.5 kg, and more than 0.5% body fat, i was so happy! those days with no rice at all paid off! :D

3. everything went well on saturday
there was this big thing happened on saturday, and it made my heart pumping faster. thankfully, everything went well and im pretty happy about that :)

4. i had a very nice weekend
after the 'big thing' on saturday afternoon, i had a very nice bowling and session with friends. definitely recharged my energy :)

5. i baked chocolate cookies for the first time
and although it turned out not as expected, but it's still good (at least for some people). next time will be better!
