Shiok ah!

Today we woke up slightly earlier..830am..cos we decided to take some action - to look for jobs..

We headed out after breakfast and popped into a few agencies, there were at least 7 - 8 of them within 10 mins walking distance from our hostel..left our CV & contact details wif a few..then realised cukoo me remembered my mobile no wrongly..too many digits liao : /

Had lunch at this pancake restaurant recommended by LP..interesting items on their menu..chicken curry & pancake? And boy, are their pancakes huge! Wif one sick cat among us, the 3 of us can barely finish the 2 pancakes (i must control my diet mah)

Then spent the afternoon idling at the nearby shopping centres..oh, saw one fitness centre..very tempted & went in to ask about their charges..wah biang, £10 per entry..a bit ex right..no choice but to give up the idea..was thinking maybe can go for a jog since the weather has turned slightly warmer since morning..

On the way back to our hostel, i spied another fitness centre..it looks posh..tucked in a corner of a hotel..nevertheless i went in to check it out..the receptionist asked if i was a guest in the hotel & i said no..all prepared to walk out liao then i itchy-mouth asked 'can i pay to use the gym then?' Wat a pleasant surprise when she replied '£5 to use the gym'!

Mai tu liao..went back to hostel & changed into my exercise gear and went back to the gym..it's a bit small compared to the £10 one..prob cos it's a hotel gym & not a commercial gym..but i'm happy enough to see the familiar treadmills, exercise bikes, dumbbells, etc..instructor will be proud of me : )

To describe my workout routine here will bore everyone reading this..so i shall email instructor & my gym buddy separately..heh..

Felt so shiok after the workout tat i'm beginning to think i'm really addicted to sports..
