I'm satisfied

I'm very happy that this blog is working so well and perfectly. I can easily update the page and save it instantly wihthout having to wait for minutes! Darn! I should have use this earlier. Well, it's never too late to change, infact it's difficult to make a change if once is already used to something and felt very confortable to it so i give my self an applause because i moved the cheese!

I got up early this morning, infact i only sleep for half an hour after i created the new blog. See, i was very excited with this new blog already that i spent hours to create it.

Since it was not raining, i took the advantage to do my pedo-walk. What is a pedo-walk? It's a term i created myself actually where i need to walk (i can't run after my ankle surgery) 10,000 steps per day and i have this pedometer on me to ensure that i made those steps. 10,000 steps mean i have lost 500 Kcal which made my intake (daily meal) balance with my diet. Since i expereinced being admitted into the hospital twice, i really took a great care on my health. I don't want to be hospitalised for the 3rd time!

Pedometer helps to track the distance i walked and the steps i've taken.





Here's what i got from the net. I'm in a no 4 catagory... Not bad..



Based on the best evidence as of the end of 2003, Dr. Catrine Tudor-Locke recommends the following:Classification of pedometer-determined physical activity in healthy adults:

1) Under 5000 steps/day may be used as a "sedentary lifestyle index"

2) 5,000-7,499 steps/day is typical of daily activity excluding sports/exercise and might be considered "low active."

3) 7,500-9,999 likely includes some exercise or walking (and/or a job that requires more walking) and might be considered "somewhat active."

4) 10,000 steps/day indicates the point that should be used to classify individuals as "active".

5) Individuals who take more than 12,500 steps/day are likely to be classified as "highly active".

Change of server

I was quite frustrated with the wordpress server recently or maybe starting from the last few weeks where i found so much difficulties to update my blog. I don't know whether there were 'bugs' or the server was to slow or whatever it was, it was unabling me to record down all my memories any longer. So i have decided to create this blog as my new journal.

How did i started to blog? I first came to know this blogging world thru my brother Andy, where one day he was showing us a blog which is belonging to Mr Vernon (mrmanager.blogspot.com). My brother was kind of introducing the benifits of blogging but at that time, i was not that interested at all... by looking at the maintenance, internet applications, this and that, i immediately said no. That was somehwere in early 2007.

In the midle of July 2007, i went to Germany for a month. (Can read all the stories in my old blog - pelagus.wordpress.com). So i started to gettting updates with my family back in Kuching thru my brother's blog and day by day, the excitement to create a blog appear from nowhere. So i contacted Gidong in KK and ask him to teach me on how to create a blog and believe me, it was really tough at first but after a while, it became a 'drug' and i was addicitive to it!

So back at Dresden in the hotel, somehere end of July 2007, the pelagus.wordpress.com was created with all my memories in it and starting from that day onwards, i was actively a bloggers! This is my song :)
