Beivied: Exercise Updates

Belly Dance
Alice already knows, but for the sake of blogging it, I have gone back to doing bellydance. It is really quite a happy thing, dancing again, toning up, making friends.. I went back to more beginner level, 2 and 3, which level 2 is a "hip hip" dance, level 3 is veil.

This week is the last week, which I am doing two hours each for the last class, Thursday and Friday. That definitely burns some calories, not sure about losing any weight. But it makes me a happier person.

Though I would be even happier if I have company, cos now I just go for class and go home, on my own. I dont even have to open my mouth to talk. Got one or two new friends but really just saying Hi and Bye..

I have signed up for Level 4, Cane Dance, on Sunday mornings 11am to 12 noon. Considering should I sign up for the Finger Cymbal class too.

The student-turned-instructors are gradually progressing up the levels. I rather have Yuki teach in that case. I dont think Joey is going back to the lower levels when she come back from giving birth. Elis..?

Swimming
I just did a 15 lap swim today at Jalan Besar swimming complex .... went to the swimming pool too late, only swam from 8.30pm to 9pm.

Got called up by the pool guard at the 15th lap. My plan was to swim 20 laps, minimum.

Also got told off for wearing a running t shirt over my swim suit... I am too fat to appear in a bikini lor, but I cant tell that to the guard right.. so, time for a new swimming suit that can cover most of my fat but dont give me an ugly tan line on my shoulders....

until now still dunno whats the distance covered for 15 laps in a 1.0m height pool. One lap is to and fro once. Today I didnt have the painful muscle aches that I had the last time when I swam 20 laps. Does that mean I didnt exercise enough? Hmmm.
