Hi dears, am finally having the time to blog.

Today marks the day I have my knee brace removed. While the others had their knee brace on for 6 to 8 weeks, I wore mine for 11. Lol. I am recovered, minus the mild limp and the restriction in bending my knee till >120 degrees. :)

Physiotherapy has been more torturous for me now, having added more exercises. Doing the 50-minute straight leg raise was already killing me (I did about 200 straight leg raises in 50 minutes). However to add to the torture, lately Physiotherapist taped weights onto my ankle and made me do the straight leg raise. Thought I was dying halfway through and had to force myself to keep going. Physiotherapy isn't just a training of physical strength; it trains the mind too.

Was thunderstruck when she told me to do 150 times of leg press and 100 times of leg lift today, and became totally dead beat at the end of the therapy. Here are all the exercises I did today:
- single leg press (10kg, x150)
- leg lift (x100) [almost died while doing.]
- hamstring stretch #1 (hold for 30 secs, x10)
- hamstring stretch #2 (hold for 30 secs, x10)
- squats (x50)
- one legged squats (x50)
- high knee (walk till end and back, 10 cycles)
- cycling (20 mins)
- walking up and down a flight of stairs (x20)
- standing up and sitting down on a chair without the help of my arm strength (x50)

These 3-hour long exercises in a week can make up for a whole year of exercises I did when I was schooling lol. I'm so getting fitter. :D



As you know I have been eyeing everything from The Editor's Market since ages ago, but I always leave the store without buying something, as the prices are just too steep. Their concept was to sell apparels in bulk, so price tags tagged with a few prices were created, and they are mainly 1-piece price, 3-piece price, 6-piece price and 18-piece price. 

If you are feeling rich and can purchase 18 pieces all at one go, you can get one top for just $15, which is half of the original price! :D
For poorer girls like me, you could station yourself right next to the counter, look out for girls who are about to make payment, and ask them very politely if they wanna combine your pieces of apparels with theirs to make it 6, 12 or 18 pieces in total. Think they would be more than glad to enjoy the discount with ya.

If you aren't rich, you need to be thick skinned. Lol. I haven't tried approaching girls at the store but can't promise I wouldn't next time.
:)

Having not gone to the physical store for quite sometime, I went online (theeditorsmarket.com), found my eyes widened with excitement when I saw some really cute clothes and conveniently loaded 6 into my shopping basket so that I can enjoy the 6-piece price deal! Lol. There is this "Shared Basket" option but since I don't have a online shopping companion, I could only use the anti-social "Personal Basket" option. Lol. 

Here is a screenshot of my buys:



The best part is Mr Postman delivered them to me 2 days after my purchase! Every piece fits me well (Okie, I mean the red cross strap crop top is a little big and the white ruched crop tank is a little small)! 
I am totally heads over heels for the chevron romper and the cut-out skater dress! 
Overall, both the service and quality are there. :)
My life is kind of virtual now that I think of it.


Gotta get a pair of sneakers for CNY this weekend. 
Have to give up pumps for the time being and shop for a comfy pair of shoes to aid my gait. That day at work, CS looked at my only pair of KEEP sneakers and went, "Why you never buy shoes? I mean your clothes are plenty enough to get you on stage for ge tai (lol) but you only have a pair of shoes! That's so weird!" I explained to him that I used to only wear pumps which I had plenty of but working in the lab means no pumps, and I don't like sports shoes nor sneakers.


Episode 9 of The Walking Dead Season 3 is back on 10th Feb and I'm dying to watch it! Having liked The Walking Dead on Facebook, I received the news of its newly launched app "The Walking Dead: Dead Yourself" which allows you to turn into a zombie with ease!



And here is me zombified.
(Warning: Not for the weak hearted.)

I ensconced on comfy leather seat of the shuttle bus to get to SGH Physiotherapy Department when I randomly decided to zombify myself. Lol.

I have unaligned out-of-proportion emerald eyes, a vacuous smile, stitched-up lips and wrinkled skin, hold a rag doll wherever I go and spill splotches of blood if you come near me. 

Please, I wanna be cast as a zombie in The Walking Dead just so I can work with my favourite character Daryl Dixon. I can shamble like a zombie since the abnormal gait comes naturally from me largely due to my injured knee. Please let me be a zombie, will you? 
If my wish is ever granted, can I have one small request? Can I choose not to fall when Daryl Dixon shoots me with a cross bow? Maybe I can be near a tree when he shoots me and I will lean back on the tree and pretend to die. I can do it, I can fake death. 


After Jun Wen told Ling's boyfriend that I'm a fanboy of The Walking Dead, he got her to watch this gruesome drama series alongside him. Lol. I'm so sorry Ling, hopefully u will like zombies too. :D
