I love singing.
Before I started working, I used to have quite a lot of karaoke sessions with different groups of friends. Singing soothes my soul and allows me to express myself... it's not something that can merely be described in words.
But today, I have come to the sad realization that I might have permanently scarred my voice box from all shouting too much. It just hurts when I try to hit a higher key.
Yes, dear friends, I might never go to another K-session with you again. For that, I apologize.
I never thought that the damage was that bad... even though I had regained my voice for quite a while now, it appears that it has not fully recovered. I can only stay hopeful that it would eventually come back to me...
I admit that my singing is nothing fabulous, but if I can't even get my normal singing voice back, there really is nothing much left for me. It is my only window to music.
There goes another step for me to become a good for nothing. Maybe I really am not good enough for anyone.

*reads title out loud* Enough said. *resurrects blog*
First thing first. Dudes and dudettes, I am officially overweight. Well, actually, I just found out recently that I have been overweight all along. How's that huh?
According to my medical report, BMI that's over 22.9 is considered to be overweight. How does one calculate BMI, you ask? Well, it's simply: (weight in kilograms ÷ height in meters²)
SO, it has come to the point where a medical report has come right smack to my face to tell me to lose that weight or lose my health. Being overweight and having my cholesterol level slightly tipping off scale is NOT what I want. And I'm not going to just sit back and do nothing about it.
I'm just going to have to work on what I eat and start exercising (cardiovascular exercises, and not just static muscle training). Hopefully, by the end of one month, I would be able to shed at least 1 or 2 kilograms. I'm aiming for 68kg to make sure I never go over the 22.9 BMI again.
For the rest of you out there, if your BMI is off the scale, perhaps it's time to do something about it. Why wait till tomorrow when you can start today?
Let's advance to a healthy tomorrow, together.

Dear Naughty,
I am so glad that we have passed the 13th month of our courtship! Honestly speaking, I didn't like the number '13' as it signified bad luck, and I felt really uneasy about it. This month was full of ups and downs, with it being the month where we rarely got to meet each other. This lead to me feeling emo and insecure, but I am glad to see the silver lining now. =]
I am sure that this has also been a relatively shocking month for you, yes?
Heh. 10 more months to our 2 year anniversary! I love you beyond words.
Yours sincerely,
D.
