Healthy Active Date at Coney Island

Hello lovelies!!

I'm thankful for my change of my lifestyle! Getting more active day by day... and having a same pattern boyfriend does help me becoming more active too!!

Why?

Because our dates became very active! Like we can date at Bukit Timah hill to do trekking... Or trekking at Henderson Wave to Sentosa... Or travelling to Pulau Ubin to just cycle... And many more in the plan to be covered!
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.

And so with that, our most recent healthy active date we went to CONEY ISLAND!! A beautiful new discovery and we rented bikes to cycle!!

Together with us I brought my new toy out for test too! Hehe.. Hao lian much....

But then..... The weather wasn't very helpful... Started to drizzle when we just reached and so we've decided to just hang out at one of the cafe along The Punggol Settlement!

Wayne's Chill-out

3 Punggol Point Road

#02-11 The Punggol Settlement

http://www.wayneschillout.com.sg

Mon - Fri: 2pm to 11pm

Sat - Sun: 11am to 11pm

It looks really not like a Singapore kind of place, due to the view and the weather... It was very breezy and definitely slowed down our busy schedules and enjoy our brunch that day... And we've order some snacks while "chilling out" and enjoying the breeze!

Our favourite tea: Earl Grey

Crispy Truffle Fries: But we still prefer P.S Cafe one

Apple Crumbled Pie

Mushroom & Cheese Pizza: Oh well we love this the most! 

The rain stopped after we ordered our food..... Hmmmm... so.... No choice we took our time and enjoy every bit.. Before working out!

OMG!!! My face looks damn huge!! TT____TT

.
.

.

Rented our bikes after our meal! I wanted the vintagy one and he wanted the more "man" one! And off we go!

A few snap shot here and there!

When we are debating who to go in front.... LOL

Probably his favorite picture... =_____=

Him: "OK LAH!! I go infront as you wish!!"
=____="

After a Korean Drama we've watch..... it turns out most of out wefies are in this face.. HAHA!!

Alright... this look better...
But I'm still pale looking because I wasn't feeling well that day... T___T

And we also tried cycling to waterfront... But time to return the bikes and so we stopped half way... So yep that's also added into out next healthy active date venue! Cause I haven't been there and saw lots of pretty picture taken from there! I WANTED TO GO TOO!!!

.
.
.
.
.
.

Returned our bikes and did a quick wash up, we ended our Coney Island date with our favorite snack... ICE CREAM!!!

I gotten myself this:

I think i got conned because i paid $4 for this giant cone ice cream!

Random update post!!

Hello lovelies!!

Today I'm going to do an update for all the happenings during this few months of hiatus.. Hmmm... Well not really hiatus but just decide to stay out of the social media scene... =D
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.

Well, there are lots of changes in my life for the mere 5 to 6 months i would say.. Be it in relationships, work, lifestyle and even my character!! Yep!! Even character changes! Please don't be surprize! So this post is not going to bore you with long grandma story, but just a brief summaries to avoid question marks and surprises! And the hassle to explain every single time.. Because I'm already enjoying every single moments now and then! =)

Hmmmmm... Which should I start off with?
.
.
.
.
.
.
.

1. WORK!!!

Alright, I decided to start off with work because no doubt it's my number 1 priority now! In this case, it's classified as my career now! WHY? My background is a designer, I used to do graphic design, furniture design as well as interior design. And I graduated with a diploma in industrial design.

But.......

Now, I'm a personal weight management coach! I help people to lose weight, gain weight as well as get healthy! Also supporting my career, I'm a certified Zumba instructor! It's like WHAT?!?!? Why such a big change? Hmmm...

I can only say I still love designing and I do take in freelance jobs still but the satisfaction from my customers and VIPs changes and results is irreplaceable. It's so magical!! From their joy and happiness to their challenges and problems were the drive to keep me going and pushes me to help them achieve their goals and reach out to more people who I didn't help! Because everyone deserve to live a better and healthier life! Every single one.....

Most Importantly, ever since I'm seriously building my business, my days were majority happy and positive! Isn't that the minimal thing we need to achieve in life?

And how one can get so much love and care from my mentors and even from my daddy while being first time on stage sharing my story?!

2. RELATIONSHIP!!!

Well this is the most asked question for the past few months and I must really really be grateful to my parents, my sister and also my 2 awesome coaches who been standing by my side from day 1 supporting me and pulling me up again... =)

So the story is.... the 7 years of relationship ended and the wedding was called off because of a betrayal. There are lots of questions .... why end? can't resolve? no way? 

So the answer is.. why ask me? A relationship takes 2 hands to clap, if 1 hand stopped, there will be no sound from the clapping.. And the last thing I can forgive is betrayal. Because, it have been happening to me for all my relationships.. OK, can call me sway lah... but yea... that's it.. and nope I don't hate guys and I atill prefer bananas... LOL !!

And lastly, before I end this part, I'm thankful an "angel" appeared to support me and accompanied me through this shit especially my super extreme thoughts and insecurities. Someone as weird as me... haha.. We have too much in common that sometimes, we scared ourselves too... =P My best buddy, companion, Personal Assistant, Accountant, Financial Planner, Fitness mentor , my boyfriend......

Well, a rotten tree doesn't meant the forest is rotten and so I restarted again with a different mindset... So, please remember the face ar.. its a different person now. Thank you very much!! LOL!!!

And this:

is not what you think it is.. haha...

3. CHARACTERS!!!

Well, I din't really notice it myself previously until recently... I used to be a 水扁啦 kind of person.. meaning anything also can, no goals and just want to pass-by like an average girl. And I really felt a waste of my life previously... LOL, but its ok, I'm enjoying every bits now!!

I've been setting goals and living to achieve my dreams and goals. My thoughts were different too and this is when I felt I'm living a life to the fullest!! there must be a purpose why we are here. Right? if not, whats the point of living if we have no direction in our lives? Who will be responsible to our one and only life? Only ourselves. If we don't do any change, there will be no change in our life..

So dare to dream and dare to achieve them!

Well, this part I can't really explain but perhaps stay with me more often and you will discover it! Hahaha...=]

4. SIZE!!!

HA... its not a new thing... But I've been trying to lose my weight for my entire life and it was my yearly resolution that never ever do it until this year! I finally lost quite a bit of weight from 93kg to now a 68kg and finally reshaped from a XXXL to a size M!

So it's not an end yet, I'm going for my second round of transformation so... please encourage and motivate me too!! It just another 10kg and I want to achieve it by March!! Lets do it together!!!

.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.

So I guess its about there? Part 3 and 4 is a change that is still happening so I'm not too sure how well it can be written unless you start to follow me now and get all the updates frequently over here as well as over at my other social media! =D like my Instagram, twitter, Facebook as well as YouTube!!

With this, I shall end this random post and stay tuned for my next post!

With lots and lots and lots of love,
Akemi

Time for a spring clean!

It has been a really long time since I last blogged... Lots of debating with myself, whether to continue or not as I've not been active since forever. And I've decided to continue and I'll try as much as I can to update this personal space as regular as possible.

Reason being:-

I wanna grow old reading my online diary and reminiscing all the things I did in the past!

Just in case I forgot which I tend to be forgetful, I'll definitely love to "record" my real life journey for everything!

I still love blogging even after so many years and I shall overcome my laziness!  =P

And of course many other reasons... and lastly I really hope I can inspire people out there whom I never met before.. =D I do not know if I have the magical powers but I do hope I can at least bring happiness to everyone in the world!! YAY!! and now, I'm not gonna care if my English gonna pissed some of you off, because I'm just being myself on my own blog!! If I can have perfect English, I'm sorry, possibly I've engage a pro writer to blog on my behalf! =X 

This post gonna ends here and I'll be back updating what I've been crazily busy with and how am I doing... It may sound boring... nah... BUT I tell you, my life been like a drama for the past few months which is really unbelievable!! Soooo, STAY TUNE!

Ending here with a lovely photo of me taken very recently!! Don't miss me too much!!

With lots love,
Akemi

I love being a Blogger!!!

so.....

WHY I LOVE BEING A BLOGGER????

I love being a blogger simply because...

I LOVE TO SHARE!!

SHARING IS CARING!! RIGHT?

And it all started when I'm 16 years old... OMFG!!! That's like freaking 10 YEARS AGO!!! and this is my first blog url:

http://chocozzz.blogspot.sg

HAHAHAHAHAH!!!!

Cann0t stand h0w I can bl0g ab0ut anything in th3 w0rld b3 it just a f3w s3nt3nc3s with thish kind 0f w0rdings w0rx~ r3ally cann0t stand it 0h!

LOL... And the above blog was actually a cleared and re-opened blog after my broke up with a ex-boyfriend. Where my blog post can be so EMO , ANGRY and also........ BORING!!! But then again, that's when I found light and realized , LOOK~

PEOPLE ARE ACTUALLY READING MY "ANGER VENTING MACHINE" BLOG?!?!?!

So I thought, why not share some happy stuff rather than angry stuff where it will eventually make my readers leave my blog site HAPPY!!!

And that's where my current blog became to~ All thanks to my beloved readers whom accompanied me back then when I'm still a young innocent kid!!!

Through blogging, I get to share with my readers, friends and families bits and pieces of things I've learnt or experienced! Isn't it a good thing? I sacrificed and be a guinea pig first eh.


And here are top 5 things I love to share with my readers and be happy:

1) RANDOM DIY TUTORIALS!!
I love to Do-It Yourself!!! LOL.. and probably because due to my special sizing needs, I'm prone to DIY when it comes to costume for my dance performance!! While I'm stressed rushing to finish my DIYed costumes, why not share with my reader?!?!!

READ IT HERE

It's a stone kill two birds thing!! Get my costume done as well as to share it on my blog. And who knows, this random action became the TOP READS on my humble little space!!! Wheeee~


2) BEAUTY WORKSHOP EVENT
To be very honest, I'm not really good with facial stuff and wouldn't call myself a beauty blogger. BUT, I'm vain and pretty lucky to be invited and gain exposure to beauty workshops through you know what? BLOGGING!!!

READ IT HERE

Not only I benefited with the workshop invite, my readers benefited too! Because I will then share it with them! Swee oh~


3) GIVEAWAYS!!!
Who don't like free stuff?? Well, I love it~ Being a blogger, we receive perks from sponsors or advertisers and sometimes it might be too much for me to use. After all, I have only 1 face to pamper and it will just gone to waste if I did not finish using before it expires!

READ IT HERE

As a habit, I will share it with my readers because good things are meant to be shared!! And I want my readers to benefit too!!


4) FOOD REVIEWS
Sometimes people always say bloggers are like beggars. Cause they attend events like food tasting events and get to eat FREE stuff. Well, I DEFINITELY DO NOT AGREE!!! Bloggers are more like guinea pigs, just a more fortunate one~ Because they do not just eat, but have to review at the same time too~

READ IT HERE

And then we will shortlist and share with our readers the best dish we had, so readers can just make order according to what we suggested! Isn't it more like guinea pigs as compared to beggars?


5) EVENTS AND COMPETITION
For me, I'm not a pretty blogger who is able gets fame easily through looks. I meant, come on, who don't like to look at pretty stuff? So , I have to go through another way of getting more fame!!! Which I realized it's the highest level of sharing through blogging~ ITS TO LET GO AND SHARE MY HAPPINESS AND JOY TO EVERYONE!!!

READ IT HERE

And I took a step forward and took part in #CNOS3 !!! For the last challenge, I went all out and struts the red carpet with joy and happiness!! Cause I know, from there, people will be happy and have fun !! What do you think?

The drama at work....

Last week a big drama happened in our showroom!

Something that you will only see in movie setting, happened right in front of me and the story goes like this:

I'm the only one (full-time) in my office. The part time cleaner was doing his cleaning and the sales representative was luckily preparing his documents while waiting for the boss to come in [normally the sales rep don't come to our showroom ]. Suddenly, the sales rep called out for my name and the PT cleaner came running to my room and said:

"Somebody ran into your showroom!!"

"HUH??!? What do you meant?"
I said while walking to the main entrance area thinking there's a client who need my attention.
There was this ang moh guy panicking hiding behind our displays.

Been thinking he was a client, I asked: " How can I assist you? "

" Please help me!!! Those guys are trying to kill me!!"
The AMG said panic-lily.

I stunted for a moment and asked him to repeat again. I scanned him with my eyes from head to toe, realizing his shorts was undone with a huge crotch under his pants! The first impression that came to my mind was he might just raped somebody and trying to escape for his life!! So, I turned to the sales rep and ask him what had happened since all the while he was at the entrance doing his stuff.

"I'm not sure what had happened but he just ran in to hide!"
Said my sales rep.

" Who are the one trying to kill you??"
I asked the AMG as I did not see anyone else there accept himself

" Those 2 guys outside!! And please help me call the police!!"
He claimed.

I looked out to the walkway, there were only our building's security guys standing outside. *confused*

" They were the building security not some other strangers or mafias you claimed they were! "
My sales rep said.

"No they were the one trying to kill me!! Please help me!! Please call the police!!"
He screamed.

I'm afraid and I want to try to chase him out of our showroom but FAILED! So I ask him to explain to me the whole story so I could help him.

" I were checking out of my hotel and wanted to get to the airport. And there were mafias posing as policemen with guns trying to follow me and take my life! Because I knew something that I shouldn't. So I ran and escape!! PLEASE CALL THE POLICE!! I want to talk to them and I want to go back to my country."
The AMG claimed~

Even more unbelievable when its Singapore here, I walked out and talked to the security guards outside and check if there were any suspicious person outside. There was no one and according to the guards, he actually behaved like he was when he was at level 1, going into everyone's retail shops and they had been following him since then.

So maybe he was on drugs or something, my sales rep and I tried to chase him out. At that moment, he pointed at the hairdresser opposite our showroom saying they were there preparing to kill him when he step out of our showroom.

Getting all ridiculous to even explain to him, he suddenly got agitated and he tried to run into our office area when there were knifes in one of our display. I got panicked and without thinking much, I chased after him to stop him!

" I NEED TO GET OUT!!!!!"
He screamed

" THERE IS ONLY AN EXIT IN FRONT!!!"
I screamed while trying to grab him!

He shook off my hands and kicked one of our fixed glass panels!! *like some Jackie Chan movie* All worried, and I seriously need help desperately, because he is definitely too strong for me~ The security guard in charged got angry and came running to the AMG and grabbed him!

They began fighting in our showroom, the security guard's shirt was torn and the AMG's face were covered with bruises. At one time, the AMG managed to run out of our showroom and he left all his belongings in our showroom. The guard immediately chased after him and they continued their fight outside. *pheww*

Awhile later, the policemen came and collected his belongings away and got him to the station. The drama finally ended with a few stains on our floor and displays. But luckily, nothing broken nor our lives endangered though I'm shivering and my heart was beating damned fast~

For that moment, I thought I were brave but I'm actually not!

( TT____TT )

SCARE DIE ME LAH !!!!!

A full of crisis June...

The terrible June finally ended.

So how was your June like?

I would describe it as the month full of crisis. Because we Singaporeans fought with the terrible haze for about 2 - 3 weeks? People were crazily looking for mask to protect themselves. Hmmmm... even for myself!! #kiasi

I managed to tahan for the first few days when the PSI was still around 100+~ But when it hits up to 200+, I started tearing every morning when I woke up and also some difficulties in breathing. =/

Sadly, I couldn't find myself a mask because everywhere just went out of stock. So I decided to order from my all time favorite shopping site, Qoo10.sg !! BUT, till now [even the haze condition had reduced] , I still did not receive my mask!! Hmmmm...

Anyway, I still managed to get those N95 for myself and my family thanks to Darryl~

Me and momo

** Trending self shot then **

Luckily, the haze is not in the hazardous range now as compared to PSI 400++ 2 to 3 weeks ago. O__O
**FYI: Record breaking for the past few years!!!** 

-------------------

A few days after the haze drama, there were rain hail happening in the west of Singapore! Exciting right? I never see it with my own eyes before but if I remembered correctly, many years ago, there were rain hail in the east of Singapore too. So it's actually not something new. However, it still created a very entertaining hooha and I swear its damned funny:


** Who will ever taste those drop, drop, drop, drop like a grape thingy in their own mouth?? **

=_____________= |||

Just when I thought the consecutive drama is over~

There comes the mouth-less kitty but named singing bone craze!!

It was actually a marketing promotion by McDonald's last month. But there is one thing that I don't get. Why does Mcdees always bring in Hello Kitty? Hmmmmm... But anyway, those crazy fans of kitty started queuing on Wednesday *launching only on Thursday*  in order to get their hands on the mouth-less kitty! *roll eyes* Are you for real?? Miss your beauty sleep and buy a meal at wee hours for that orh lu lu / chao ta kitty? Hmmmm...

So what's the commotion with this kitty??


Serious??!!?! Over a kitty? Why? I simply just don't get it... So what if now you got the whole range, and then??!

*shake head*

Even if I'm crazy over Eeyore, I'm not like this lah...Don't have then don't have loh, what's the big deal about it?? Just don't get it.

Anyway, that's the end of the June crisis. Let's hope for a huat huat huat July now!!!

Everybodeh...............

HUAT AR !!! 

It's a lazy post......

Hello Everyone!!

How was your week? Mine was as usual hectic and because now is the month of May, it is a very happening month for every week~

Today, I'm just feeling so LAZY!! Don't feel like doing anything... So just popping by to dust my blog a bit! LOL......

Because..... I'M SO LAZY!!! =/

Dance & me...

Hello people!! =)
Last Saturday, we have had our 2nd vetting for the recital in Oschool. It was quite bad. I can't feel my team at all even for the 2nd try. Quite sad to say... And I'm not sure why I can't bring up the confidence level too.

After vetting, we continued our usual dance practice, where Carol also changed bits and pieces for the choreography. New back roll stunts... and for a moment, I gave up thinking I will not be able to do it. Because last year May actually tried and teach me but I can't do it. BUT, who knows, I quietly tried it very slowly and.... tada!! I DID IT!!! very shocking still...

-CREDIT-

** However, when try with the song, I failed...LOL..

The super duper long dance practice ended.. and while I'm bathing, I began to think about dance and me..LOL~ *very random one*

and I thought..

"If I had continued dancing since primary school (I used to be a Chinese dancer in school), how far will I be today?"

Doing all the stunts for reggae will it be easy peasy for me? Considering I'm trained on the stunts back in primary school.

Back then, we are trained to do the "bridge"..

-CREDIT-

.. from standing position to the "bridge" and walked in this pose...

Also, splits...

-CREDIT-

... In any directions.. Front or sides, slow or fast..

Will I be able to do it without any difficulties if I had continue dancing then?? and the question came back to..

"If I did not fall on my back when I'm primary 5, will I still be dancing then??"

If I do not have any back injury complication, will I still dance?? This is a question I guess I will never get an answer. And is something that I regretted very very very much. It also takes me quite a few years to come to realize either than drawing/design, dance is also my everything.

My tears dropped when my design failed or rejected and I teared too when I failed to get in recital last year. Its everything to me. When I'm happy or sad, dancing just makes me happy and forgets everything. For a few years I've built the confidence and strive to be where I am today in dance.

"LOOK~ I'm performing again after so long??!!!"  YET, this happiness does not stay long.

I really really really really hope, it does not end here because I still can't give up dancing yet. PLEASE DON'T TAKE DANCE AWAY FROM ME!! At least not now...

Alright, I'm not sure what I'm writing now... probably just some messed up, random thoughts that I wanted to rant.. I've been moody these days because I've been having tough fight with myself. But at least I know, even if it is my last performance, I wanted to give my best shot and enjoy every moments of it! And no matter what, I'll try to go back dance again!!

Like the picture above, " NO!! I MUST DANCE!!"
