Belly Busting Beginning

Wednesday, June 20th, 2007

I officialy have a bike now… ok who cares, right?

Actually sources say my belly is sad that it will go away but in the meantime the fit-to-be side of me might wake up after a looooong sleep.

I hope I achieve what I plan by end of summer in terms of being in shape,  being more fit, and more healthy in general. After all the mind-body-soul feed off each other, don’t they?

Belly Busting Benefits

Saturday, May 12th, 2007

Once upon a time back in the good ole days I used to be belly-less.

With the changes of time, seasons, eating habits, and losing a good friend called “regular exercise” I joined the non beer belly club.

Yesterday I was listening to a motivational lecture on an aspect of education and as you know each speaker emphasizes something. That speaker mentioned sports and cardio several times. It made me think… why are some of us  so stuck that good education = endless hours in the library, massive glasses, and no hobbies? Some of us, the more healthier ones, have combined a good regular exercise routine that is combined with a vrey great learning routine. Such people reach high levels of relaxation and wisdom.

so benefits of belly busting that I was reminded of:

*Belly busting will make you more energetic

*Belly busting makes your cardio better which makes your mind think better

*Belly busting is a good stress relief

*Belly busting is a good break so you don’t burn out

*Belly busting can be a time to reflect (e.g. walking next to a lake, jogging uphill, walk with a family)

 So I promise to join the belly busting club soon :D

When kissing gets you in trouble

Tuesday, April 24th, 2007

This is so funny I decided to post it on my blog. I went on to catch up on the playoffs and check out what happened in Al Ahly-Barcelona game, when I came across this:

sports.yahoo.com/sow/news?slug=reu-latambrazilreferee&prov=reuters&type=lgns

RIO DE JANEIRO, April 23 (Reuters) – A Brazilian defender was booked for kissing the referee during a match at the weekend.

Television pictures on Monday showed Cabofriense defender Cleberson giving referee Ubiraci Damasio a peck on the cheek after having a foul awarded against him during a 3-1 defeat by Botafogo at the Maracana.

The two were initially involved in a friendly exchange but the referee’s mood quickly changed as he pulled out a yellow card and could be seen to say: “You can’t kiss me.”

“I didn’t know it was against the rules,” said Cleberson afterwards.
