making time to run

that, I have been doing! excitedly at it too!

the reason being? I downloaded some delicious music into my Ipod Nano and

wow,

I love it!

it makes me walk fast to the point I don't realize and I now have pains at the back of my leg and today at one point the music was too good to no run to!

that too at a very fast pace! Oh life is beautiful when ure running or walking to music.

some of the tracks on my list:

Paradise - coldplay ( a remixed version)
Run the world -Beyonce

some dubstep as usual

one U2 track.
stronger- Kanye west

and if you're wondering where I get my music from,
I get it from Soundcloud

I love this site, it exposes me to so many kinds of music! you can also download the mobile app, I have one on my android phone and can stream music so easily.

and almost everything is free! there are some artists who post their music as well, for sale,

I haven't bought any so far, once I'm in a more liquid position and if I find that perfect track, I would definitely love to buy and support budding artists!

ok its back to work now

not making enough time

I didn't make time for all the things I wished to do for the past two weeks.

for e.g. blogging, my two other businesses

the internet is a great resource for information, at the same time it's so distracting. oh how I could block some of the sites that I visit.

anyhow, for some quick updates:

my climb to Mount Kinabalu was amazing, I felt positive throughout the climb, I reached laban Rata which is the 6 km check point in slightly more than 6 hours, which is great! it's within the fit level, compared to the last time where I took 10 ++ hours. how embarrassing.

regardless, I made it to laban rata, I never felt like giving up at any point of time, I just climbed, climbed at my own pace.

the next day however, when we all awoke in the early morning, around 2AM, in the freezing temperatures to climb to the peak, about 2 hours into the climb, we had to turn back as it started raining and it was dangerous to climb.

in this part of the climb, I was quided by another guide and he had an immensely negative impact on me. I felt weak, tired and wanted to turn back, the previous day however, the guide would just be silent everyvtime I stopped to take a break and left me at my own pace.

and it made me realize how I let negativity impact me, I shouldn't.

Yes I should only surround my self around positive energy, however, if there is inevitable negative energy approaching, I should strengthen my individual self to block it.

so that will be in the pipeline for me, not allowing others to dissuade me, not fearing others and their perceptions and just not having fear in general. it's just a waste of time.

I'm positive

rolling around

yesterday evening, a group of 7 of us went to Gasing hills for some hill climbing, as part of our training process for our up coming climb.

we went in two groups. I was in the group that came later with the two boys. we waited for the girls to join us at the suspension bridge. if I had pictures, I would totally put them up. I need to find a more efficient way of posting up pictures.

anywho, when the girls finally came, we started our trek up the hill, it went up up up and then down down down, just as we reached the base, again, before us, there was this huuuuge and steep upward trek that needed to be done.

one way of the other, we did it. and this only took us less than half hour, so we proceeded to another trail. I suggested the one that heads to the reservoir.

there, I remembered the first time I had attempted it, where upon coming to a really steep road, the first thing that had crossed my mind was about rolling down the hill and whether it would be possible.

with some encouragement from my friend, (actually I'm just really easy to convince) I lay horizontally flat on the floor and rolled. uncontrollably.

so this time, when I took my friends there, I told them about my experience rolling down the hill, and naturally, being the great convincer that I am. they followed suit.

well, truthfully, they didn't buy it till I had to demonstrate to them, they almost didn't try..

and one by one everybody tried rolling except Jatin.

and then we had the brilliant idea of, all of us rolling simultaneously!

so there we were, on the hill, 6 of us lay flat on the road and started rolling. it was definitely a sight and we got it recorded on video too, by the guy who didn't roll.

it was definitely an enjoyable experience and SO MUCH cooler than planking!

TRY IT!
