千六百九十三; 早番

there's this incline stepper thing i discovered at the gym. it supposed to work out the thighs. if you make it less steep, its supposed to work out the lower calves area as well.

so sleepy now, reached home about midnight last night. I feel sore in some areas, mainly the legs, but its not like the kind of pain you feel after running 2.4km in sec sch. which is suprising. But I do fall asleep very easily, mainly in front of my PC actually. until i wake up suddenly and realised I should be sleeping properly.

my gum is swollen on my left side, dunno wats the reason for the sudden swelling.

and I saw this on another girl's blog so I'm going to do it for myself also.

"The Big Read reckons that the average adult has only read 6 of the top 100 books they've printed." 

  1. Look at the list and bold those you have read.
  2. Italicize those you intend to read.
  3. Underline the books you really love (and strikethroughthe ones you hate!).
  4. Reprint this list in your own blog so we can try and track down these people who've read 6 and force books upon them
