champions on ice

though i know nothing about skating (except the name, michelle kwan), i still enjoyed the event yesterday.

michelle kwan, probably because of her injury, didn't really do much during her performance. Not even a jump. But oh well... seeing her is good enough

i enjoyed seeing shizuka arakawa - her body figure, her motion, ... it's all so mild, feminine, beautilful

oh... and of course, what keeps me "wow-ing" is Vladimir Besdin & Oleksiy Polishchuk (see here). they are just amazing. go check out their video !!!

overall - it's a good show! :D

series of therapies....

for my knee and ankle after all the intense badminton games...

i'm optimistic that they will heal me this time :) but the bad part is - i have to stop ALL exercise for at least a month or probably more... until it's fully recovered.

can i stay "inactive" for that long? sigh

ice skating...

happened to read seattletimes today, and found that michelle kwan is in everett for an event... so i immediately searched online and found that the show is tomorrow! ... so i sent an email to ask few friends if they are interested...

and here we are:

we are going to see the show tomorrow!! i'm excited. my first time. :D

cute!

what does badminton do ...

• brings back the knee injury that went away for so long... and worse than it was
• takes away my bye-bye meat
• .... and gives me a strong right forearm. how strong, u may ask? to give you some relative numbers..... my right forearm is 1 inch bigger in circumference than my left forearm... and same size as my right arm!!! kind of ugly, actually... but oh well.

mysterious injury....

so.. i was pretty sure i was all well (at least for my foot) before i went badminton last nite...

and i was alright when i left badminton last nite too...

but when i got home, and took off my shoes, my foot hurt. It feels like i had a bruise on the "top" of my L foot. No idea how i hurt it... but it really hurts ! *yick*

haircut...

haven't got a real haircut for a while. everytime when i went to ben's, i asked him to trim 0.5 inch only becuz my hair grew so slow that i really am reluctant to lose too much length...

but finally, last saturday, i went it and asked him to cut however he wants... and he cut (for the longest piece of hair) 3.5 inch off it. it was quite strange when i look at myself in the mirror now. not quite used to it... but... at least cutting that length got rid of quite some "yellowish" hair of mine, so my hair looks a "tiny" little bit healthier now... To get it all healthy, i guess i have to do this two more times ;) but i probably will have to wait for years for it to reach a certain length before i'm willing to have such a big cut again....

will see..

hm... i got a finger today...

simply because i was driving 32mph on a 30mph road....

and...

thank you, for remembering the two songs.

i was surprised, impressed, and very much appreciate this.

haven't blogged for a little while....

busy, probably.

camping during july 4th weekend was fun, if there's no mosquito. I've never seen so many mosquito... and i've never got so many "bad, hard, big, nasty and hot " bites. wenatchee? off my list ever.

more yard work ... but with this hot weather, the flowers aren't really surviving. the only good thing is, the floweres we planted from seed really grow and look very pretty and colorful :) and we're finally done with putting the barks to where we want (and can afford ;) )

seminar last nite was a lot of information. i enjoyed it, though i wish i would be given a copy of the ppt so i can re-read it thousands more time to get the idea :)

and... the new job keeps me very busy during work hours. it's good though at least it won't keep me working long hours like what i had to do back in company E :)

and last of all... had taebo today with a sis . without a companion, i probably would do 45 mins of it. of course, i still skipped the last 10 mins of stretching, which, i just can't handle :D
