Following my weight awareness previously, I have experienced periods of “Okay, I’m going to shed those fatty 10 pounds in 2 months” and “Fuck this isn’t even going to work”. During one of those periods of optimism, I started my food and fitness blog: Rilly Fit. I am making a daily record of:
- Food consumption.
- Exercise.
- Good fitness/dieting tips I come across.
I will also make body measurements from time to time and record these. Many weight loss articles have recommended starting a food journal because the need to record every food that is consumed will make one feel guilty if they have consumed something. At the same time, I guess having recorded no or minimal exercise in a day will also make me feel guilty.
If anyone’s interested in my progress or self-reminder tips or ideas for starting your own one, feel free to check it out! It’s my new source of pride. <3

I just got the bottom of my left foot burnt with liquid nitrogen today to kill a plantar wart, so cardio exercises are out of the picture for now.
The new direction is discovering more good eating and home exercise tips!

Thanks to Emma and Snark, I just received my first ever gift from a Secret Santa organised online.
I felt so bad putting forward a massive “dislikes list”, but I often do receive a lot of Christmas gifts I have no idea what to do with…
- I have my own cup at home, I do not need a bigazillion mugs and glasses.
- I have an unromantic Asian family, we do not light candles, maybe wait until I’ve moved out.
- I do not use a camera made in the 1990s, nor do I print photos, so I have not needed photo frames or albums since I was 11.
- I already have a five years’ supply of body lotions from buying too much from girly stores.
- Unless it’s a 4+ set of kitchenware, one-off cutlery pieces do not match the rest of what we have.
- Impractical things.
Unfortunately I get a mountain load of them. (I know I’m such a whiner.)
I’m a very material person that do not appreciate what would usually be thought of as sweet things. I do not like handmade crafted gifts unless they were up to a professional standard, I do not like things I can’t use in everyday life. A gift voucher, though it looks flat and cheap, is sometimes the far better choice. A simple tip for getting gifts you’re not sure someone would definitely like: ask for an exchange card.
Fortunately, my amazing 2010 Snark Secret Santa Ashley got me the cutest, prettiest notebooks!


Cute stationery just can’t go wrong.

I’m currently going through the busiest time of my semester so far:
- 1500-word essay.
- Legal Research assignment.
- Moot (mock case trial).
- 3000-word essay.
But, enough with the excuses, for I have still been spending some hours here and there on World of Warcraft for breaks. I’ve written a few draft blog posts, but never put in the effort to finish them for publishing, because I don’t get that blogging mood often when I’m publishing posts to a layout I feel is ugly.
I still like some concepts of this design: the colours, the organisation of the footer, the comments link… but I feel funkiness may be what keeps me interested in my own blog when I have to spend perhaps 10 hours each week on it, despite having desperately wanted a minimalistic design.
So here’s going into a new design brainstorming stage again…
