Rock climbing

I did some extreme sport last week with my friends and it is rock climbing. I think rock climbing is a great exercise because it makes you move all your body, especially your arms and legs.

 It was fun because of the adrenaline rush. Rock climbing is very tiring but was worth it. The pictures below are my friends and I would like to thank Nigel for taking the pictures even though he is not in it.

 One thing about rock climbing is the height. The more you climb upward, the higher you get. The word 'height' scare me the most because I am afraid of height but I do it anyway. I was able to go through my fear of height. I scream (manly scream) and hesitate (muscle tired) but still climb to the top.

Learning Chinese

I am a Chinese but I can't speak Mandarin.

My goal is to learn how to speak Mandarin. Not so much about writing but I have the basic.

So far my brother and I are trying our best to speak Mandarin constantly.

We have classes ( only me and my brother) at 4 pm everyday.

In class: 1) Learn 5 new words
             2) Learn how to construct sentences; and
             3) speak Mandarin
These are the books below that my brother and I use:

So far, so good and my friends too are helping me, sort of. By end of summer, I should able to speak Mandarin. 加油!!

Gym Time

Hi everyone!!!

Last Friday, I went to Taylor's gym with my friends. I told one of my friends that I needed help to lose my belly fat. He showed me all the exercises that he do from top to bottom of the body. For example, chest press, abs crunches, shoulder press, leg press and many more. I have to do 5 sets, 12 - 15 reps each set and it was a killer. The next day, I couldn't get out of my bed but it was worth it. Hopefully, I will continue my workout and get my sexy body.

I became a barber for a day

Hi everyone!!!

During the weekend, I tried to cut my hair and it was difficult. The reason why I am cutting my hair because I want to save money in U.S. I am cheap, I know but since I am on my summer break, why not? So far, the side and back of my hair were easy to cut using the hair cutter.

When it comes to the front and top of my hair, it was impossible. I can't even cut a single strand of my hair with a scissor. In the end, I used the hair cutter to finish the job. 

 However, I made a mistake and cut off the top of my hair. Luckily, my mother was able to fix my hair.

 I did what i can and in the next 2 weeks, I will cut my hair again. it is hard but I should never give up. Practice makes perfect.

Introduction and Self-Improvement

Hi everyone!!!

Let me introduce myself, my name is Lester Poi.

 I recently finished my Spring semester in University of Iowa and I'm back in Malaysia to speed up my degree by taking summer course in Taylor's University.

There is nothing much to talk about me but I am an average person that plays a lot of video games.

Such games are:

                       *Most of them are original. MOST! I have pirated games but only because I have financial crisis.

As you can see, I play a lot of video games. As a result, I am very lazy when it comes to work. I am okay with my grades and CGPA but physically and mentally, there are bad.

Here is my problems I am facing now:

1) Sleep

                  I sleep a lot. Even though, I sleep early, like 12 am, I will wake up around 10 am. For class, I will wake up at 7 am, click snooze till 9 am. After class, straightaway I will take a nap in my bedroom. When I mean 'nap', it is about 2 - 3 hours of napping time. When doing assignment, I will find time to sleep.            

2) Belly fat
     

                   I'm not as fat as the picture above but I'm fat enough to chase girls away. Well, sometime you just look at the mirror and you don't find yourself sexy, that's how I feel.


3) Chinese

                      I am a Chinese in race but I can't speak Mandarin. You can say that I am a banana. Why this is the problem because I have many Chinese friends. In time, they will speak English but most of the time they speak Mandarin. When it comes to Mandarin, I will just stone there which I hate that a lot.


Main goals

What I want to do in Malaysia is to improve myself. Since I am taking two subjects, I have enough time to work on it.

So far, I am going to the gym regularly, learning Chinese with my brother ( He also don't know Chinese but also want to learn) and managing my time with work, sleep and free time.

I almost forgot, I'm also learning to cut my own hair. Since U.S is expensive and I'm cheap, why not?

I will update myself on what am I doing in the future with video, if I have the courage to do it.
