Just NOT Made for Dancing ?

perhaps if I had taken ballet when I was young (oh mama! why didn't you sign me up T.T), I would have the "dancing" gene. LOL! BUT its just so hard to boogie woogie, let it all go and coordinate your body movements! oh man. really hand it to the dancers (Samsam, Esther, the Mambo podium girls) who can groove man!

I went to Mambo @ Zouk last Wednesday and I was absorbed, trying to follow the dance moves throughout, gaha. it was a fun experience. wayy better than MOS (which I heard close down)!
I liked some songs but the club played some non-mambo songs too which I think kinda sucked because I would've preferred all mambo songs!! then I can learn more moves HAHA. =I ~and get the fullest mambo jive! oh well.

so today, I went with mom to sign up for her one-month trial membership at California Fitness Bugis. Mom signed up as a 1 month trial member for 40 bucks or so, and that entitles 1 free guest sign-ins. Dad (used Ms Tan's free 1-month VIP guest card) and I were the guests, so from today onwards we 3 can go California Fitness use all the equipment and attend all the classes!! today I was curious and since there was a class available, I attended it after the consultant was done with his nagging and hard-selling.. I attended aa Zumba Fitness session. It is a fusion of Rhuma dance, etc etc. it was hard to catch up man! I felt so silly doing those movements and I think I looked silly but I don't really care. a woman I chatted up helped me with the steps too. she's so nice. BAHH! I DIN EVEN GET HER NAME! shit. haha.. at some points I felt like giving up. I felt like I was dancing some kinda Bollywood dance man. I can't shake my upper body (ok boobs) for nuts though I myself command my own body. I felt like a headless chicken with bad foot movements! LOL. I spottted mom and dad sitting/standing outside the room waiting for me and I felt like a little girl learning ballet with my parents is anxiously watching outside. so paiseh lah. sadly, I can't even "do them proud".. and I danced with my red and white FBT attire (top & shorts). weird.

but it was all in the name of fun I guess. I am like so geared up to attend more classes to make my 1-month membership worth it !! =D haha. but sian! I would have to attend the classes alone =(

oh, today the consultant also measured my parents' and my body weight, fat, etc. Mom needed to lose like 20+ kg, and for me, I am like 5% over my ideal weight (darn) and would need to lose like 2.7 kg or 4.8 fats (!!!) or gain 2.1 kg muscle T.T.. my fitness score was 73 points (= good!) hehehe. my muscles are Normal, and my protein, fat and mineral (nutritional status) Normal. my arms upper lower balance is Undeveloped and my leg's Normal. so I guess the 2.7 kg which I need to lose/train is really from my arms and tummy lah. grr.

but I don't know how to use the machines! =( I tried using some ab machine and bloody hell, it was so hard. 5 kg weight s(the lightest) only and I wanted to die. the bloody thing can hardly move!! LOL. and the first time I tried it, I slammed the weights down (so paiseh!) cos I didn't let it down back slowly. I'd rather do crunches than that anytime lah. LOL. they also have the Fluid Diagnosis along with the test and that measures the strength of my body. my legs are much more powerful as compared to my arms man, and my left arm is weaker than my right (since I'm right handed) my Basic Metabolism Rate is 1397.9 kcal (for girls usually is 1800!! T.T) and my Body Mass Index's 21.8 kg/m2 (healthy!). my Arm Muscle Circumfrence (the measurement of my biceps area without fat) is 19.9 cm and my Arm Circumfrence (measurement of bicepts together with fat, bone & skin) is 26.9 cm..so my fats, bone and skin are 7 cm!! it was cool the machine can measure all those. I dont know how the machine works (does the measurements) lah. because all I have to do is just stand on it and grip two things -.-

Mom and I also went for the Steam/Sauna (they have such facilities! and they provide towels, lockers-bring ur own lock, tissues+facial cottons+cotton buds- felt like I was in a country club) and in the bathroom it was weird because I saw quite a number of naked bodies. OMG. from those fat women to those bodylicious women. I also saw mom's (cos she never put the towel properly) -.- it was weird man, even though I used to suckle on her when I was young lah. but as a baby I no "consciousness" hor. LOL! the steam/sauna sessions were really slow man.. was waiting for mom to nudge me to go out with her. I don't even know how long we spent in it torturing ourselves man. we went steam then sauna then steam again. -.- dunno why need to "steam" two times also. when we came out we were really rosy (esp me. I looked sunburnt) LOL. dad was waiting impatiently outside as any disgrunted men are when they're waiting for women. dad complained, to which mom said "you don't know women meh" .. SOUNDS SO FAMILIAR. HAHA!

today was a relaxing and exciting (the dance session) overall. the best thing was that I can spend time with my family I guess. it's been so long since I sat in their car. I also chatted about the Mambo, the K-session (how I can't sing chinese songs but tried). they are curious about my friends I guessed because in these 2 accounts I hung out with them till very late. LOL! we also chatted about Sasha, work, school, etc etc. it felt good to let them know how I'm doing.. =) I also found out Mom & Dad are going to sign up as a member in a CC to learn Yoga! OMG! lol. just like how Ms Tan and her hubby are lifetime members in California Fitness (they paid 3k or so to join as a lifetime last time. now lifetime memberships are like 7k! bloody ex!) a pity I couldn't join them (as much as I like to since that would mean mom's paying for me, most prob, heheheh) because I got cellgroup! T.T whyy.. but aww, so sweet! when I go work next time, when they retire, I'll sign them up for exercise classes (maybe lifteime membership even!) then they can tianmimi together in classes till old age! hehehe! anyhow, speaking of which, I can't imagine dad doing yoga, HAHAHA!

ohhhhhhh.. what a fulfilling busy week.
I was like so tired, sleeping so little (2h per day, for half the week?) but it was fulla first-times. first time Mamboing, first time singing so much K (technically second time. but first time I never sing so much), first time gymming with parents and dancing in classes..

next time, I wanna try the Yoga classes, the All Dat Jazz class, the Supa Street class and the Beach Body class! A pity there isn't the Contemporary Stage, Retro Dance Fever and Dance-A-Mania classes available at the Bugis Outlet =(

I'mmm... psyched!! now just gotta find time and motivation to go for these classes!
oh man. nowadays hotmail is bloody slow!! gahhh !!
